Shell had to leave the Sakhalin II oil project in Russia, since the regime was hell bent on getting it's oil resources back from foreign control. The Russian adminstration recieved quite a flak around it.
Meanwhile in the other part of the world the Dubai based company , DP world that bought P&O the british shipping company that gave it rights to ports in the US had to sell off their acquisition to the AIG Global Investment Group.The Americans and Russians are so similar ..somehow the International media fails to see this.
Sometimes all that matters is the art of dealing with mass psychology. AIG has little experience in managing ports they say!
