Just started replaying for the first time in years last night, very early on in the game there's a hilarious news bit buried between commercials where they talk about the Scandinavian Migrant Crisis: Swedish Military authorizes force against the hordes of refugees fleeing to northern Europe, resulting in at least 60 casualties as of reporting. The Twist? They are all Dutch refugees, the Netherlands has been completely submerged by climate change.

I haven't watched the video yet, but I'm a cyberpunk DM and have been for a couple years now for 2020 and RED. From what the lore says, the USSR still has a bit of control over SovOil despite the claims of independence. A lot of that is a front, from what I understand as all the financial constraints are applied internally by a group of soviet loyalists and most of the upper echelon is loyal in the modern era after the civil strife.

USSR are one of the only suppliers of original gasoline as well. In the old catalogues for gasoline it's from a soviet seller i believe.

I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
