Summary/Abstract: In the 21st century, it has become even clearer that political considerations come sooner than economy when global goals and concepts are at stake. Unfortunately, it will be an exaggeration to say that the contemporary globalized world is ruled by markets only. More and more often economy follows political decisions and that brings turmoil into the well-being of even the most developed members of the international community. Number one area of such unbalanced approach is energy, in particular oil and gas.
