World Bank Makes Prediction On Russian Energy Replacement

Despite accelerated efforts by Western states to wean their economies off Russian oil and gas, it may take years to replace them, the head of the World Bank has warned.

“Under current policies global energy production may take years to diversify away from Russia, prolonging the stagflation risk,” David Malpass said at a Stanford University conference.

The European Union has pledged to abandon Russian natural gas and cut oil imports as part of sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict. The move, aimed at hitting Russia’s economy, has instead provoked an increase in global food and fuel prices.

Nicaragua Severs Ties With ‘Neocolonial’ EU State

Nicaragua has broke off diplomatic ties with the Netherlands, accusing the Dutch envoy of a colonial attitude toward the country.

“Nicaragua, faced with the repeated meddling, interventionist and neocolonial position of the Kingdom of the Netherlands … communicates to the government of that country our decision to immediately discontinue diplomatic relations,” the Nicaraguan Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

The decision comes after President Daniel Ortega accused Christine Pirenne, the Dutch ambassador to Central America, of disrespecting the country.
“The ambassador of that country was visiting. She was received by our foreign minister. And what did she hear? The ambassador came to speak to Nicaraguans as if Nicaragua is a Dutch colony,” Ortega said.

North Korea Responds To US-Led Drill

North Korea fired two short-range ballistic missiles on Saturday, just after a US-led joint anti-submarine drill took place, making it the fourth such launch in one week, South Korea and Japan say.

According to the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS), the projectiles were fired from near Pyongyang, traveling around 350 kilometers (217.5 miles) towards the Sea of Japan, which Koreans call the East Sea.

Japanese Vice Defense Minister Toshiro Ino said that the missiles may have flown on “irregular” trajectories, as quoted by Kyodo News.
