🔹The Dutch 🇳🇱 gov't is considering plans to restrict cattle numbers to two cows per football pitch-sized field, (“0.35 hectares of grassland per livestock 🐄 unit”) putting them on a collision course with the country’s farmers. The aim is to reduce methane & nitrogen emissions, produced by manure and fertiliser.
🔹Farmers are incensed by the plans to limit their livestock numbers, especially in the south of the Netherlands, where about 3.5 cows per football field graze.
🔹 Talks between the gov't & farmers on reaching a deal to reform Dutch farming 🚜 and reduce agriculture-related 'pollution' will continue in June after efforts this week failed to reach an agreement.
Previous nitrogen policy developments in the Netherlands:
💠 The EU 🇪🇺 has approved 2 schemes (LBV & LBV plus) with a total budget of €1.47 billion euros to compensate farmers for the closure of their holdings.
💠 Over 10,000 Dutch farmers 🚜 protested in The Hague on March 11th against the nitrogen policy.
💠 Dutch farmers protests end in clashes with police 🚓 & arrests.
💠 The Dutch gov't plans to buy & close down, up to 3,000 farms near environmentally sensitive areas.
💠 🇳🇱 Farmers Defence Force, representing 8 agro-organisations, (95% of the industry), locked out of the 1st round of negotiations.
💠 Multiple protests previously erupted over the gov't's draconian nitrogen oxides curbing plan.

🔹Moldova 🇲🇩 - The Grayzone has exclusively obtained video recordings of numerous well-connected figures within Chisinau’s political and business community openly – and gloatingly – testifying to rank malfeasance within the country’s government and economy, while outlining various schemes to enrich Western investors for an appropriate fee.
🔹In the recordings, pranksters posing as wealthy US business people contacted multiple Moldovan officials, one being Moldovan politician and lawyer Stanislav Pavlovschi, asking for assistance in securing a gigantic return for investing $50 million in Chisinau. Pavlovschi, a former European 🇪🇺 Court of Human Rights judge and self-styled human rights defender reveals that the US ambassador 'governs' Moldova.
🔹In a next recording, investment professional Olga Melniciuc, who formerly worked as a consultant to the Moldovan state economic council assured the pranksters that Moldova has EU & US 🇺🇸 backing so there are no obstacles to investing.
Last reported on this channel:
💠 Moldovan 🇲🇩 police raided the central election commission of Gagauzia, alleging irregularities after a politician championing better relations with Russia🇷🇺 , and not the EU 🇪🇺, won the local gubernatorial vote.
💠 Ex-Moldovan President Igor Dodon has voiced concerns over a possible provocation against Transnistria by Ukraine🇺🇦 .
💠 Feb 19th '23 Moldovan protestors call for resignation of president Maya Sandu.
💠 Moldovan PM N. Gavrilita resigned & was replaced with an even more pro-EU PM. Moldova forced several Russian-language media outlets to shut down after not renewing their broadcasting licenses.
