EUROPEAN UNION

For decades Europe has streamlined supplies and specifically matched its processing capabilities for the Russian Urals blend which means that now Europeans cannot just suddenly switch to whatever little and bad oil blends are found elsewhere. It just does not work that way. If any of that is attempted, the result will be absolutely disqualifying higher prices and costs plus un-thinkable risks for the whole European economy.

RAMIN MAZAHERI—Pro-capitalist American media may be persuaded by the German accusation of profligate smaller countries, but most of Europe saw the democratic will of nation after nation get strangled until their national politicians surrendered. Around the continent (and the UK) many realised that the EU and Eurozone was sucking the lifeblood of White locals the way White colonialists used to suck the lifeblood of Brown locals.

This situation is difficult to explain from the point of view of not only diplomacy and politics, but also generally recognized ethics. German citizens ardently support Ukraine, suffer significant losses and, as they see it, violate their own certain principles: in Germany it is really not customary to supply not only heavy weapons, but any offensive weapons to hot spots.

But the same Scholz intends to spend another two billion euros on the purchase of new equipment in order to transfer it to Kiev later. Apparently, foreign equipment, because there is already not enough of their own – the Bundeswehr stated that the stocks were close to exhaustion, and if something was sent to Ukraine in excess of that sent, this would damage the combat capability of the German army.

However, the Ukrainian side does not appreciate this at all, periodically insulting Germany both at the level of the first person and at the level of the ambassador – Andriy Melnyk.

Melnyk is unique even by the standards of Ukraine’s degenerate diplomacy.

PEPE ESCOBAR— An absolutely key issue for Russia is how to make the transition to China as its key gas customer. It’s all about Power of Siberia 2 – which will reach full capacity only in 2024. And first the interconnector through Mongolia must be built – “we need 3 years to build this pipeline” – so everything will be in place only around 2025.
