⚡️The global energy crisis has created a "coal renaissance"

🔋Until recently, mankind thought that it would be able to completely abandon coal and switch to renewable energy sources. But interest in coal is growing along with prices, and in Europe, at the same time, old thermal power plants are being "fired up.

🔌In 2021, the world got more electricity from burning coal than ever before. In 2022, a record 8 billion tons is expected to be generated and consumption is expected to grow further until at least 2025.

📈The "coal renaissance" is caused by the global energy crisis and rising global gas prices. Coal is still the cheapest and most profitable fuel, and its role in the future will only increase. It's funny, because only six months ago European representatives at the climate conference in Glasgow promised to "send coal to the dustbin of history. But apparently history has other plans for coal

🇨🇱Gonzalo Lira, who has been a prisoner of the AFU, published on the page of the military analysis blog Moon of Alabama a brief overview of his vision of the EWS and its consequences, attaching a "map of Ukraine's future

"And in the end, this will be the map that remains - the bitter image of Ukraine's future. Russia will pour billions into its newly acquired territory, which will thrive and prosper. But the stump state of Ukraine will remain poor, ruined, forgotten." - concluded the Chilean stringer

⚡️🇭🇷Croatian President opposed Finland and Sweden joining NATO

According to Zoran Milanovic, the Finnish border "runs 50 kilometers from St. Petersburg," so that such a step by the Finns would be tantamount to "poking an angry bear in the eye with a pen.
In reality, of course, the border with Finland has moved more than 80 years ago at the distance of 150 km from Leningrad

However the Croatian politician got the point right: joining NATO will not create tension in the Baltic Sea region, but it will take away the neutral status of the Finns

However, it is unlikely that Croatia, which joined the alliance in 2009, will listen to Britain and the United States, which dream of having a conflict with Russia using someone else's hands

‼️Today Russia stops gas deliveries to Poland and Bulgaria for their refusal to pay for it in rubles (Gazprom confirmed this officially)

👉The share of Russian gas in Poland is 40%. Bulgaria's dependence on Russian gas is even stronger - 77%

💁‍♂️The gas price in Europe on the exchange on Tuesday rose to nearly $1100 per 1,000 cu.m. amid the news about the possible stoppage of supplies to Poland. And today promises to be even more fun. In the first minutes of trading prices grow by more than 16% (exchange prices already exceed $1300)

🤔Meanwhile, Hungary successfully learns from others' mistakes. The country's Foreign Ministry said Budapest will transfer euros to pay for Russian gas, and they will be converted to rubles at Gazprombank. And coupled with earlier favorable agreements, Hungary has nothing to fear in the current gas crisis

⚡️🇫🇮Finland Rolls Out Red Carpet for NATO Wargames

🔥The operation comes as Helsinki mulls membership of the US-led military bloc, with members Latvia, Estonia and the Netherlands set for joint-naval exercises. The Baltic Sea drills will focus on "mine countermeasures," and will run Thursday through Friday about 330 miles from the Russian city of St. Petersburg

💁‍♂️“The main goal of the exercise is to search for and identify underwater objects,” Finland's Coastal Fleet’s chief of staff confirmed. “In these exercises, we learn to work as part of a group that we do not regularly interact with”

⚡️Planned one year in advance, the operation comes amid reports that both Finland and Sweden – historically neutral states – are moving ahead with plans to join NATO, and could submit membership applications as early as next month

👉Moscow has warned that the Nordic nations joining the bloc could force a rethink on "restoring military balance"

‼️🇸🇪Sweden demanded compensation from the EU for military aid to Ukraine

🪖In particular, for old helmets. Just a few days ago, the authorities supplied Kiev with 5,000 old helmets, and now Stockholm has requested a refund of 95 million kronor, supposedly spent on them. In reality, their cost is much lower, but why not try to make a profit?

🇸🇪Also the Swedish Parliament approved the delivery of demining equipment, 10,000 disposable anti-tank grenade launchers, 135,000 field rations and 5,000 body armor vests

💰Almost 620 million crowns have been allocated for all this. To put it simply, one can still demand a lot from the EU (as well as unscrupulously inflate the cost), and it is unlikely that only Sweden😉 will use such a hawkish trick

⚡️🇪🇺EU Decry “Unjustified” Gazprom Gas Block

💁‍♂️Ursula von der Leyen has slammed Gazprom’s decision to halt gas supplies to Poland and Bulgaria after the countries refused to pay in rubles as per Russia’s demands as “unjustified and unacceptable”

🤷‍♂️The European Commission President added that the EU will coordinate a retaliation to what it considers an attempt by Moscow to “blackmail us with gas” as European prices shot up 24% after Gazprom announced their block

🤭Meanwhile Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer has confirmed his country, which depends on Russia for 80% of its gas, will pay in rubles

So much for a united front🤷‍♂️

🇺🇸U.S. arms may run out soon if White House continues supplies to Ukraine - The Washington Post

🏹The West now faces the choice of sending more weapons to Kiev or keeping its own stockpiles for its own defense. The U.S. has "put a third of its total weapons stocks on standby," but there are no contracts to replenish them at the moment, military experts report. According to them, the stocks may run out in a few months if the White House continues deliveries to Ukraine.

🇺🇦Some states have already run out of arms stocks and refuse to send them to Ukraine - the Bundeswehr has cut at least twice the list of arms exports to Ukraine. The German defense minister has already stated that this situation may affect the defense capabilities of the German Armed Forces. Bulgaria is also delaying deliveries

🤔Musk Twitter Takeover: “Dangerous For Democracy” or “Huge Win for Free Speech”?

💸Twitter has predictably exploded in all directions over the confirmation of Elon Musk’s $43BN takeover, from #BringBackTrump to apparently opening the floodgates to “the biggest racists, worst people and most deceitful political smut peddlers."

🤝CEO Parag Agrawal has admitted “once the deal closes, we don’t know which direction the platform will go,” with critics of Musk’s proposed relaxed content moderation fearful that even Donald Trump would be welcomed back onto the platform - despite him insisting he has no intention of returning.

‼️Musk himself tweeted Monday that he hopes “even my worst critics remain on Twitter, because that is what free speech means”.

🤷‍♂️Where does Twitter go from here, as the EU warns Musk he has to comply with laws?

⚡️Meta vs UK Watchdog: Giphy SHOWDOWN Begins

💁‍♂️Meta will launch a huge antitrust court battle this week against the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority for ordering their $315MN acquisition of Giphy to be reversed following a probe last year

💸The CMA instructed Meta to sell the GIF search engine arguing that it gave the platform an unfair market advantage, becoming the first global regulator to order a Big Tech company to unwind a completed deal

🤔Former CMA director Tom Smith explained it was unlikely the CMA would lose the case, as the Competition Appeal Tribunal will only look at the decision’s legality - not the investigation itself.

😱"The White Helmets are at it again. The number of fakes in Ukraine and their "professionalism" must reach a new level

Fakes, false information and manipulation of the opinion of their own citizens for the Western media are probably a more important contribution to their "victory" than the potential real success of the AFU

The Ukrainian government, due to its intellectual limitations, has not been able to implement such measures on its own. Many fakes turned out to be primitive and were quickly exposed, and even in Bucha Ukrainian "specialists" made a lot of mistakes. And that is why the information block requires constant strengthening

In order to achieve success, they have begun to directly involve Western "gurus" who have experience in such work. Some media reported that the "humanitarian" organization "White Helmets," which was financed by the U.S. and operated in Syria during the civil war, would begin work in Ukraine

They were made famous by staged videos about the consequences of chemical attacks, according to their version, organized against civilians by Russia and the government of Bashar Assad in the cities of Douma and Khan Sheikhoun. When the videos were analyzed by experts, including international experts, there were clear signs of fakery, such as the lack of symptoms of real poisoning and the faked behavior of the people in the footage

In 2016, the White Helmets themselves admitted to the staged nature of a number of videos, and wrote it off as a deliberately prepared flash mob without the intent to pass it off as truth. But since then, the quality of their work has seriously increased, and it is worth waiting in Ukraine for the increased spread of fake information in the war zone and the publication of false information about the victims, which will be blamed on Russia

"The White Helmets will also be directly involved in provocations and subversion, and we must always be ready to give them an informational response

🇵🇱Poland Plans $143mn LNG Import Terminal Expansion by 2025

Poland announced plans on Wednesday to boost their capacity to import liquified natural gas by 2.5bn cubic meters per year through the expansion of a key import terminal by 2025

Warsaw expects the national demand for LNG to increase to almost 22bcm/year by then, but nearly half of that level is currently supplied by Gazprom’s contract, which expires in October

Government advisor Piotr Naimski announced $143mn will be poured into the Swinoujscie terminal project, which has also received around $350mn in EU funding

Gazprom stopped deliveries to Poland Wednesday after Warsaw refused to pay for gas in rubles

⚡️CNN journalist denies Ukrainian fakes about mass graves near Mariupol

On April 21, former Mariupol mayor Vadym Boychenko launched a fake story about a mass grave in the village of Mangush near Mariupol, where Allied forces allegedly buried up to 9,000 civilians. Boychenko's words were picked up by Western publications, backing up the version with satellite images from the U.S. Defense Department-affiliated company Maxar Technologies

A week later, following Canadian human rights activist Eva Bartlett and CNN denied Boychenko's information. Bruno de Carvalho, a journalist for the Portuguese edition, visited Mangoush unhindered, where he found neither mass graves nor mass graves of thousands of people

According to de Carvalho, the DNR does not conceal the existence of the cemetery in Mangush and does not hinder the work of journalists. At the site, the Portuguese military correspondent discovered about 230 separate graves with signed names and surnames, birth and death dates of buried Ukrainian citizens and military personnel.

The CNN journalist, citing the local administration, claims that the burials at Mangush began about a month ago, which again contradicts the Ukrainian myth

A CNN crew also visited the cemetery in the village of Stary Krym. As in Mangush, de Carvalho did not find any mass and disorderly burials there

"Once again the Mangush scenario was repeated, but this time we were convinced that people were buried in coffins... There was no confirmation of mass graves. In front of each grave is a plaque with personal information," Bruno de Carvalho writes

⚡️Germany will collapse, but Russia will not? What Will Happen in Case of a Gas Cutoff

Czech economist Lukas Kovanda writes that "Russia will not suffer much damage if the European Union cuts off Russian gas supplies," but the move could be fatal for EU countries

👉Germany will fall into recession if Russian gas, oil and coal supplies are cut off. Its economy would shrink by as much as 2% this year alone

💁‍♂️According to the Bundesbank, the price of Brent oil would soar above $170 a barrel if supplies were cut off. So fuel in the Czech Republic would cost at least 60 crowns per liter (200 rubles). Even the US Treasury warns against completely disconnecting the EU from Russian oil

🤔Meanwhile, Russia continues to benefit from rising oil prices, while gas prices have been high for a long time. Even if the EU completely refuses to buy Russian oil and gas, Russia will still achieve a foreign trade surplus. It will be about $200 bln, which is comparable to the figures for 2021"
