Russia’s gas union eyes Pakistan, India — M. K. Bhadrakumar

The big growth in this century is expected to be in Asia, including Central Asia and Southeast Asia, and Africa — unless the West can either control the regions or disrupt their growth. Growth requires increased energy use and alternative energy other than nuclear is not there yet. And even with nuclear energy, much of the planet's uranium now comes from Kazakstan and Russia. Russia also constructs nuclear power plants. 

This article is mostly about natural gas along with the geopolitics and geo-economics involved.

  1. Without fossil fuels, nuclear infrastructure can't be built.
    Without fossil fuels, renewable infrastructure can't be built.
    Without nuclear, primary energy use will reach a peak (fossil + renewable sources).
    Further down the road...
    Green hydrogen/ammonia carriers would only be a fraction of current primary energy use.

    In other words, we're fr*cked.
