    Когда-то Азербайджан обеспечивал весь СССР кондиционерами и оборудованием по добыче нефти. Я посещал Баку в 1988 году и был потрясен тем фактом, что средний работающий азербайджанец живет намного богаче россиянина. Мы с моей подругой азербайджанкой часто сидели в Майами за чашкой чая и плакали, вспоминая нашу жизнь в советские времена. Все жили одной братской семьей, все развивались в одной культурной цивилизации. Мы - граждане советского союза не голосовали на референдуме за разрушение нашей страны. Это было сделано против нашей воли. А теперь иностранцы выказывают больше озабоченности уровнем коррупции и упадка в наших республиках. Наши журналисты и официальные СМИ рискуют свободой, если пытаются говорить правду. Спасибо Марселю Серо (Marcel Theroux) за этот душераздирающий фильм.

    Corruption is a death sentence for a country. I came from one and know to much about it.

    Well, that's a "false dilemma" by the Aliyev Dictator by claiming that if they started cracking down on corruption, the state will be "ungovernable"...That's a very dichotomous thinking

    Not knowing that oil- and gas prices, especially oil ofc would never recover, not nominal and not PPP until 2011, they continued to spend more to their military until 2011 than into the oil sector, for that they made deals with foreign companies. 2010 budget = 2.8 billion US-$, 2011 = 4.46 billion US-$... 2019 = 4.05 billion US-$ (inflation adjusted its even more less than the 2011 spending), 10 years ago I think Armenia had less than 500 million or so, azerbaijan would kick their ass, but they did get cheapest natural gas with known/leaked(?) prices... around a decade ago Armenia received 1000m³ for just 90 US-$ incl. transport to the Armenian border by Russian companies or partners (Kazakhstan/Turkmenistan? Georgia? Black Sea/Turkey?), European countries, depending which paid like 250-400$ than, it was before the 2008 collapse short before peak, which followed months later on the gas spot market, now again Putin plays... stops deliveries, record low storages, ships with LNG from all over the world turned and are heading towards europe as the price on spot market is the highest ever recorded (177€/MWh ... this is a 600% increase since early 2021...yamal pipeline stopped now, I hope we build some LNG-terminals here in the north and baltic sea too, who needs russian gas when a small island like qatar has enough to fill Nord Stream 2 (the reason why Putin is such an a...s...s? 55 billion m³/year... Qatar has less than 300,000 real qatari citizens... almost 2.5 million people... 11.6% qatari, 88.4% non-qatari... almost all work there, most in cheap sectors and ofc some from western companies, alone oil + gas liquids (NGL is much more than oil production, they left opec as they only operate very few pure oil rigs) is over 600k bbl/day, over 2 bbl per qatari/day, gas reserves are 24.07 trillion m³ in 2018, oil over 25.2 billion barrels 2018 too... production of "liquids" (most NGL, natural gas liquids) was almost 1.5mbld in 2018, this number is very different as NGL has a lower energy density (I think up to 30% or average 30%?),cuz of corona they reduced ofc oil production and reduced investments for the coming years, gas production in 2020... dont know if they have large tanks to fill, this year demand is back and they will export to europe too this month and next year, Australia delivered a partial cargo, first Australian LNG for Europe since 2009,thats wealth, they will host FIFA World Cup 2022 (November/December because of heat and prime-time in europe is only 2 hours different or so, they still would have over 40°C even starting all games not before 8 p.m. or so, Saudis and UAE together were not able to host the World Cup together, often 2 countries without a large enough tourist and/or soccer/stadium, hotel, trains, busses, roads, highways to drive from one city to the other...or 100,000 or more fans for some clubs each driving/flying... in Qatar everything will be on the small peninsula of 11,586 sq km land area, 100%, 0% water... Berlin alone has almost 900km², New York City has 1,214.4km² but "only" 789,4km² are land...amazing), except a few Alaskian villages/town/1 city and a village in Kansas the largest city is Jacksonville, Florida with 2,265 km² (949,611 pop, census 2020)....LA has ~1290 and still over 1210 land, so its not even 10-times LA, hope Corona wont destroy it,

    well than azerbaijan was 9 years old (1991-2000?) or 10 but doubt that, now the state is 30 and comes into year 31 in 7 days, 16hours, 14 minutes ;) 1990s = oil prices nominal and PPP ultra low, especially when the Asia Crisis in 1998 joined all the post-soviet chaos I think ~18$ bbl was max for the rest of the millenium, oil infrastructure needed investments to keep production high, it was lucky that between 2000 and 2007 prises rose to like 98-99$ and intraday over 100$ for a few minutes or so in late 2007, they invested like many at least a part of this fortune and 2008 until july another rise to 147,50$ for WTI and comparable for Brent in less than 7 months happened and in August the Crisis which started already in the US in 2007 became the known recession, and still until 2016 when US created a new peak, kicking the 1970 old peak every month and year until 2019 heavy in da ass, oil will last even without methods like used by Nazi Germany or South Africa (Coal-to-Liquid) for...we all living now would be dead by than and I think with the coal, gas use and so on the planet would play crazy in the 2nd half of this century, making corona FFP2 masks wearing a joke, electro mobility can safe us, but not if profit will be nr. 1...and for cobalt and other minerals a new study just released in the US took 36 million cars (private use as real trucks will come soon, data tesla thinks they can do is known but Tesla is the only one I know who produces a (small?larger?huge?) part of their batteries without Cobalt, but energy density per kg is only 50% while it has also some positive aspects and weight in a medium sized car is a pretty small part with weights like 1700 - 1950kg and 2000kg and a bit above for cobalt battery cars with 90-100kWh and upper class like Model S, or Model 3/Model Y?
    However 36 million cars per year with current cobalt production would last 11 years for cobalt, nickel and others would get a problem too, for sure speculators would buy the material (on paper at least) to push prices, like they use cryptocurrency and waste electricity more than Argentina + a small country uses, and even best studies say that 56% are renewable (most positive one, heavy doubt it), than 44% or daily billion liters of oil equivalent, god knows hundred millions or over a billion cubic meters of natural gas equivalent or yearly something like almost a billion ton lignite and hard-coal mix or over 1 billion would be used and that numbers are far too optimistic...even in the US you dont get 56% renewable, not to talk global, china and its ban helped a lot to reduce coal use and india is preparing a ban too, but it takes a while and many countries invite the damn miners...
    energy is important and azerbaijan has oil and natural gas, both will be worth "something" for decades to come, largest waste: conflict with heavily upgunned armenia over that "Bergkarabach" (German name) area since 90's, I know last year there was a "conflict" and I think peace treaty... but azerbaijan spends so much of its ressource wealth to military and armenia couldnt pay the soldiers they have, and for sure not give them guns or keep the state running with electricity, fuel (police, goverment, hospitals...military), their yearly budget was 700 million US-$ in 2019 or so..I think a single modernized T-90 tank with spare parts and a few rockets/ammo without any mass discount or "friends price" is worth more, maybe you get some T-72 with some equipment last time overhauled in soviet times or in the 90's a bit...
