What country has lots of oil and gas it would like to sell at much higher prices? Russia. What country would be able to sell their oil and gas at much higher prices if the flow of oil from the Mideast was badly disrupted? Russia. Why would Russian leaders act to prevent what would be clearly in the best interest of Russia? No reason at all.
Putin may be a nasty person, but he isn’t stupid . . . unlike a good many I can think of in the Obama administration and Congress. A fairy godmother isn’t in the cards as of now, particularly a Russian fairy godmother.
