Good "oil and gas" business is good for Russia and Britain. And Prince Andrew ( Duke of York ) is a good representative for Britain. He never turns down an opportunity to travel to mainland Europe. Is Britain really that boring?

Please explain what really Prince Andrew knows about oil and gas industries and how much he care about it ! Anglo-russians relations are rather strange and difficult to understand. That hate-love relation with total absence of sincerity from both sides and manipulated on the british side by Washington will keep historians busy. Sorry Future Generations, you may not laugh as much as I do... Sincerely. Jean-Claude Meslin
