well just buying more Russian gas has hit a bit of a snag ( for Europe ) , and Russia has it's own alumina and aluminum  processing capabilities  including  various types of power plants ( including nuclear  ones )

 so are we sending  Australian alumina to Russia  when there is a NZ smelter with an uncertain future  , and energy starved Australia ( sarcasm ) is incapable of processing it's own alumina

 so yes if the story is correct  .. it is just another Australian sucker story

 fun fact  , my first win  in the Sunday School fancy dress  competition  i  was dressed up  with banana   leaves and bark  with a sign  'just another sucker ' ( sometimes cheap and cheeky takes the prize )
