This is the first story Ive seen which illustrates what may well become a trend in affecting war mongering by nations, when national policy butts heads with the profit of private commerce involving companies with revenues the size of medium sized countries, which form significant proportion of national GDPs. Traditionally, the Military Industrial Complex has profited from military action, and destabilization of international relations. Here we are seeing private industry which, overall, benefits from maintaining the status quo, and has enough power and influence to impact decision making. Its going to be interesting to see how Putins deals with this, short of re-nationalizing the oil and gas industries, which may not be as easy this time round.
