President Trump and Putin Show that They Control Supply and Demand of Oil and Gas and the Endgame Is NearLast Refuge shared the following:All of the energy traders, speculators et al, now have to cope with Russian diesel being shipped at lower prices than their speculative manipulation.Trump and Putin are working around the system.The reality is that ‘western market prices’ are not an outcome of supply, demand or even availability or production capacity. Western market prices are determined by speculators, traders and regional benchmarks created by “independent agencies.”Remember those pesky housing loan bond rating agencies, Standard and Poor’s and/or Moody’s during the lead-in to the 2008 financial crisis. That type of rating ‘independence’ is akin to the benchmarks of these regional independent agencies within the energy markets; which is to say, they are not independent at all – they are part of the manipulated western financial system that determines ‘market pricing’.Behind that curtain are the traders, speculators, ideological banks and financial systems who create the finance system for the energy market. Want to stop oil exploitation, change the lending requirements to favor windmills and solar panels etc. Not coincidentally changing these lending rules and regulations was Mark Carney’s former job. Does that sound like an open market approach?Thus, when you really understand how this pricing is structured you begin to realize the price of diesel has nothing to do with the supply of it and the price is more controlled by those who wish to generate financial -or political- outcomes from it.https://t.co/e5hH32fg8d— TheLastRefuge (@TheLastRefuge2) October 9, 2026Here’s another incredible viewpoint…“Leverage” is such a beautiful thing.Trump and Putin control the energy supply in Europe.They made a huge deal for diesel and Zelensky attacked more Russian refineries.He walked right into the TRAP.Next, Trump calls for Zelensky’s removal because he doesn’t want peace.At the same time, (behind the scenes) Trump and Putin threaten to shut off the energy to Europe.The EU and NATO get the message and tell their puppet Zelensky to “immediately” agree to an “energy ceasefire.”Trump and Putin just “isolated” Zelensky, which REINFORCES the fact that Zelensky is standing in the way of a peace deal and MUST be removed.Zelensky’s days are numbered.If he breaks the “energy ceasefire,” the EU and NATO will have no choice but to END all aid.And if he holds to the “energy ceasefire,” WITHOUT signing a peace deal, he loses more territory every day.And guess what?Zelensky doesn’t have long to come to the “surrender” table.Why?Because Trump also told the EU and NATO (behind the scenes) that he’s about to declassify all the evidence proving Zelensky’s corruption and THEFT of taxpayers money, at the APPROVAL of the Biden administration AND the EU/NATO.The isolation and removal of Zelensky is on the clock and I bet he is ALREADY negotiating his asylum in another country.But he will find out AFTER he signs the “surrender” agreement, that there is no place in the world to hide for his crimes.I believe he will face justice in Ukraine for what he’s done to that country. He’s committed war crimes against his own people.It’s not a coincidence that Trump and Marco Rubio just sanctioned the shit out of the ICC ( International Criminal Court).Removing them from the “narrative” equation.No “cover” from the ICC for Zelensky by claiming Putin is the war criminal.The truth will come out.Timing is everything.Trump fully controls the narrative now.— JoeLange (@JoeLange) October 11, 2026The post President Trump and Putin Show that They Control Supply and Demand of Oil and Gas and the Endgame Is Near appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
