Slovakia donates air defense system to Ukraine

Following Kievโ€™s appeal to Western nations to help bolster its air defenses, Slovakian PM Eduard Heger has announced his country will give their S-300 system to Ukraine.

Heger, who is in Ukraine alongside EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, confirmed the move in a statement on Friday despite prior govt announcements stating nothing would be provided to Kiev.

It emerged later that in return for the S-300, Slovakia will receive four Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems from the US, according to Defense Minister Yaroslav Nagy.

US admits Russia chemical weapons scare FAKE NEWS - part of propaganda warfare (reports)



Three US officials told NBC News that Washington is pushing fake news about Russia to apparently control decisions taken by the Kremlin, confessing that there was no evidence Russia was set to use chemical weapons in Ukraine.

โ€œIt doesnโ€™t have to be solid intelligence when we talk about it,โ€ one official reportedly said. โ€œItโ€™s more important to get out ahead of themโ€ฆ before they do something.โ€

US/Russia rivalry author Tim Weiner called it โ€œthe most amazing display of intelligence as an instrument of state power that I have seen or that Iโ€™ve heard of since the Cuban Missile Crisisโ€.

Wonder which western misinformation outlets will be closing down then?

Germany will โ€œtake actionโ€ if gas storage operators donโ€™t meet tougher new laws

German Economy Minister Robert Habeck has threatened gas operators that donโ€™t meet new requirements to fill storage facilities to 90% (currently only 26%) by Nov 1 with government intervention.

The upper house of parliament passed a new law Friday to protect citizens from the โ€œhard brutal mathematics of energy policyโ€, as Habeck called Berlinโ€™s decades of reliance on Russian energy.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz has a stated target of cutting Russian gas imports from 40% to 10% by mid-2024, and approved the German regulatorโ€™s โ€œtemporaryโ€ trusteeship of Gazprom Germania this week.

Serbia says it was blackmailed over UN vote



Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has said that his country has been pressured under the threat of sanctions to back Russiaโ€™s suspension from the UN Human Rights Council.

โ€œOur initial decision was to abstain, but then we were subjected to countless and difficult pressure,โ€ Vucic told RTS TV. โ€œThey said - do you know that a decision is being made whether Serbia will be exempted from the package of sanctions on [Russian] oil, and whether it will be able to import oil after May 15?โ€

Belgrade has close historical ties with Moscow but joined other Western nations this week in a vote against Russia in response to its ongoing military campaign in Ukraine.

Musk identity CRISIS? Teslaโ€™s Texas Gigafactory launches (questions)

Some 15,000 guests took part in the official opening of Teslaโ€™s enormous new plant in Austin on Thursday - complete with a nightclub-esque Dogecoin drone show - as the electric carmaker continues its pivot away from California to Texas.

Tesla will receive over $60mn in tax breaks to build the โ€œgigafactoryโ€ in the Republican state, where it now has its HQ, a move which some claim signals CEO Elon Musk is abandoning the liberal market that established his wealth.

"I think he is having a bit of an identity crisis and has forgotten who his customer is, and it is going to come back to bite him," tech analyst Rob Enderle said of Musk. โ€œHe doesn't seem to remember that most of the people who buy electric cars are the liberals."

RECORD World food prices to harm poorest - UN

The UNโ€™s food price index has shot up at the fastest rate in 14 years to new record high levels in the wake of the Ukraine conflict, with the number of undernourished people likely to rocket from 8mn to 13mn.

Marchโ€™s indexes showed a 56% rise in vegetable oil prices from a year ago, with cereal prices up 37%; almost 50 countries depend on Russia and Ukraine for at least 30% of supplies in wheat.

The biggest victims are the poorest countries, where food accounts for much higher proportions of consumer spending - 40% in sub-Saharan Africa, for example.

One of the worldโ€™s most sanctioned nations set for an economic miracle โ€“ report



Venezuelaโ€™s economy is poised to grow by as much as one-fifth in 2022 as a surge in production of crude triggers an eye-popping rebound for the nationโ€™s GDP, which saw a dramatic decline amid US sanctions, according to Credit Suisse economist Alberto Rojas.

The analyst added that tax collections in dollar terms in 2022 could see an enormous growth of more than 40%, while the countryโ€™s imports could expand over 15%.

Meanwhile, Venezuela will reportedly record a current account surplus of about $4 billion. The country managed to lower its year-end annual headline inflation forecast to 70%, from a previous projection of 150%.

Alabama to ban trans medical care for youths

Lawmakers in Alabama have passed a bill making it felony to provide โ€œgender-affirmingโ€ such as hormone treatment and puberty blockers to minors, but Rep Governor Kay Ivey hasnโ€™t yet made her stance public.

The stateโ€™s representatives passed a bill by 66-28 majority, but was met with outrage by trans activists who slammed it as โ€œthe most deadly, sweeping and hostile law targeting transgender people in the countryโ€.

Gender reassignment surgery would also be banned under the proposed legislation.

At least 5,500 new viruses discovered in oceans

An international collective of scientists claim to have found well over 5,000 new virus species spread across the worldโ€™s oceans, and that โ€œonly a tiny sliceโ€ of those that harm humans have been studied.

Some of the RNA sequences discovered reportedly contain an RdRp gene that has evolved over billions of years, dating back to the origins of life on earth.

Letโ€™s hope Fauci is not involved.
