Nationalizing stuff is most definitely not a bluff. There is absolutely no reason for them not to do this, what's the west going to do in response exactly?

Never invest there again. This will hurt Russia long after Putin's gone.

The west was never going to invest there again anyways. Russia's future is going to be aligned with China and India, the two biggest growing economies in the world.

Yes, as a client state to China, as North Korea is now. And when China and India flare up, Russia will be forced to choose China. Their options only become more narrow, so long as Putin remains in control.

You continue to exhibit stunning lack of understanding of geopolitics or even basic geography. Comparing Russia to DPRK is beyond hilarious, but you go on further with the deranged notion that there's going to be some China and India flare up when it's becoming clear that India is patching things up with China right now seeing western insanity. India is currently exploring how to use yuan to pay Russia for energy and just had talks with China about resolving their border dispute.

If you ever decide to look at a map, then it'll become crystal clear to you that India's interests lie with Russia and China.
