Elon Musk says he'll put the ‘COKE’ back into Coca-Cola

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has joked that he will buy up the Coca-Cola Company after his high-profile purchase of Twitter, vowing to bring back an infamous – and now highly illegal – ingredient once contained in the drink.

“Next I’m buying Coca-Cola to put the cocaine back in,” he said, playing on an increasingly popular meme instigated by his $44-billion purchase of Twitter earlier this week.

While the soft drink has long been one of America's most globally recognized cultural exports, its original formula contained some questionable ingredients, chief among them cocaine.

Squeak & Destroy: Russia Deploys Military DOLPHINS in Black Sea – report

At least two dolphin pens were moved to the Russian naval base in Sevastopol, Crimea, according to satellite imagery analysis by the US Naval Institute.

Meta profits crash

Facebook’s parent company Meta Platforms has reported a 21% drop in profits for the first quarter of this year, the company’s slowest revenue growth since going public a decade ago.

According to the First Quarter 2022 Results, the company’s profit was $7.5 billion as opposed to $9.5 billion during the same period last year. Income from operations plummeted by 28%.

The figures led to Meta’s stock plummeting more than 20% and its market value plunging more than $230 billion in the company’s biggest-ever one-day crash.

Moldova acknowledges no alternative to Russian gas



"We can’t give up on gas when we have no other alternative," Moldova's President Maia Sandu said

Wednesday - expressing hope that deliveries by Gazprom will continue despite an unsettled debt.

Moldova has launched a tender to find other supplies, but the results have been ‘unsatisfactory’ as all other tenders are "too expensive."

Moldova’s contract with Gazprom expires on May 1. In order for it to be prolonged, the country needs to complete an audit of its huge debt, but it appears unlikely that the country will meet the deadline.

US Hints At Military Intervention Over China's Solomon Islands Military Fears

US State Department official Daniel Kritenbrink has said the US would “very naturally respond” to concerns from any future build-up of Chinese presence in the Indo-Pacific region after Beijing signed a security agreement with the Solomon Islands.

A US delegation was sent to the Solomon Islands - where it plans to open an embassy - where they were told by PM Manasseh Sogavare no military base would in fact be built by China in his country.

One regional advisor told the Guardian there are fears Sogavare will welcome a Chinese military presence to support his power.

Poland still buying Russian gas – Gazprom

Poland continues to buy Russian natural gas from Germany via reverse flows, after its direct supplies were suspended due to non-payment in rubles, Russia’s energy giant Gazprom has said.

Gazprom announced a complete halt of gas exports to Poland Wednesday in line with a new payment mechanism launched earlier this month. According to Gazprom, supplies will not resume until Warsaw complies with the new terms. Deliveries to Bulgaria were also halted, for the same reason.

Poland raised its bid for reverse gas supplies from Germany fivefold Wednesday, data from the German operator of the gas transmission network Gascade showed.
