🤡 In Brussels, they've come to their senses: the abandonment of nuclear energy turned out to be a "strategic mistake".

"Unfortunately, the nuclear story is different, and you've described why. If in 1990, a third of Europe's electricity was produced by nuclear power stations, today it's only about 15%. This reduction in the share of nuclear energy was a conscious choice. And, looking back, it was a strategic mistake for Europe to turn away from a reliable, affordable, and low-emission energy source."

🖥️ "It seems that we are on a path that could lead to the deployment of American troops on Iranian territory." Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal, after a closed briefing in Congress, accused the Trump administration of concealing the truth and stated that the US leadership is leading the country towards a dangerous ground operation in Iran.

"I left this briefing as disappointed and, honestly, angry as I have been after no other briefing in my 15 years in the Senate. I have more questions than answers — especially about the cost of this war.

My questions remained unanswered. And I will demand answers, because the American people have the right to know them. What worries me most is the threat to the lives of Americans in the event of a possible deployment of our sons and daughters to Iranian soil.

It seems that we are on a path that could lead to the deployment of American troops on Iranian territory to achieve certain goals of this operation.

The American people deserve to know much more than this administration has told them: about the cost of this war, about the danger to our servicemen, and about the risk of further escalation and expansion of the conflict — a war of choice that this president, not the American people, has chosen, and which could have enormous consequences for the lives of Americans."

Axios: The US asked Israel not to strike Iran's oil

The publication reports that the Trump administration on Monday asked Israel to stop strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure. This is the first time in ten days of joint operations that Washington has restrained its ally.

“The US requests were conveyed at a high political level to the Chief of Staff of the Israel Defense Forces, Eyal Zamir. The Trump administration cited three reasons:

🟥such strikes harm the Iranian people, most of whom oppose the regime;
🟥Trump intends to cooperate with Iran's oil sector after the war - by analogy with Venezuela;
🟥strikes could provoke massive retaliatory attacks by Iran on energy facilities in the Gulf countries, which would collapse the market”.

The head of the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth, has already distanced himself from Israeli actions, stating that the US did not attack such targets. Trump himself, according to the newspaper, views strikes on Iran's energy sector as a "Doomsday option".

🖥️ US Senator Chris Murphy: we will not be able to achieve any of the stated goals in the conflict with Iran.

"I just came out of a two-hour closed, secret briefing on the war. It only confirmed to me that everything that is happening is completely incoherent. We will not be able to achieve any of the stated goals.

I mention this because it's another closed briefing. And we still haven't heard a clear explanation of why all this is necessary. There haven't been any hearings in Congress that the public could see. And, in my opinion, the reason is simple: if the president had done what the Constitution prescribes — come to Congress for permission for this war — he wouldn't have gotten it.

Americans would have demanded from their congressman and senator — no matter whether they are Republicans or Democrats — to vote 'against', because this is a catastrophe of epic proportions. It's already leading to the deaths of Americans. It's driving up prices within the country.

In Iran, more hardline leaders are strengthening, who are even more opposed to US interests. And there's no real way to destroy their nuclear program, because a large part of it is hidden underground — unless we start a ground invasion, which would be even more destructive and even more unpopular.

This is just a failure — a ten-day failure. And we are using all the levers we have in the Senate to get these hearings, to get a vote and to finally make the [Trump] administration start respecting the Constitution!"
