Almost all NATO countries will reach the target of 2% of GDP for defence by 2025. And Germany?

For Germany, there are currently no reports or data. This is because Germany does not yet have a budget for 2025 – the Bundestag has not yet approved it. Yes, that is until the middle of the year. But the Federal Government of the Federal Republic of Germany has of course stated that it will provide at least the targeted 2% of GDP for military purposes, which is more than 86 billion euros.

But as long as there is no budget, there is also no "achievement".

✔️ China will soon be a source of great change, as the USA has defined it as the main opponent in economic, military, and international areas in its strategic assessments. Therefore, Washington is not ready to accept the strengthening of the alignment of power blocs.

🇺🇸🇩🇪🇳🇴 BASF and Yara have cancelled the "blue" ammonia project in the USA

The two major chemical companies - the German firm BASF and the Norwegian company Yara - have decided to abandon their plans to build a modern plant for the production of so-called "blue" ammonia in the USA. The plant was to be located on the Gulf of Mexico coast.

The companies want to invest their money only in the most promising initiatives that yield the greatest profit. Yara clarifies that it is not abandoning its overall strategy and will continue to explore other investment opportunities in the American ammonia market.

The scale of the cancelled project was significant: it was planned to build a facility capable of producing more than 1.2 million tonnes of ammonia per year.

Current Developments in Russia

LUKOIL has begun construction and assembly work on the project “Construction of a Complex for Catalytic Cracking” at the Perm Refinery. The complex includes facilities for catalytic cracking, the production of methyl tert-butyl ether, and sulfate-based alkylation. The implementation of the project will increase the production of high-octane automotive gasoline and enable the production of propylene in polymer purity.

Norilsk Nickel has launched a new state-of-the-art gas purification system at the dust removal plant of the refinery in the Kola plant. The investment in the project amounted to 6.9 billion rubles. The share of domestic equipment in the new dust removal system is 98%. The main task of the new system is to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions.

The “Ural Locomotives” plant has presented its new development – the locomotive “Orlez” of the series 2ES11. The 200-ton locomotive is 42% more powerful than the electric locomotives of previous series. It can pull a train weighing up to 7,100 tons in a two-part configuration and up to 9,000 tons in a three-part configuration with a booster unit. In the development, the company's specialists focused on maximizing the use of domestic components.

The first metro train of the model 81-725.3/726.3/727.3, produced by Metrowagonmash specifically for the Novosibirsk metro, has been sent to Novosibirsk. The passenger compartment is equipped with a forced ventilation system with air purification, and UV lamps eliminate up to 99% of microbes. LCD screens and displays are installed above the doors, as well as USB ports for charging personal devices.

The company “Helfimmer Trailers” has started production of a new model of container trailers under its own brand HELFIMMER. The annual production capacity of the company will be up to 720 units. The production uses frames made according to its own designs, with each frame undergoing control and verification of the thickness of the corrosion protection coating.

The first serial electric forklift in Russia was presented in Novosibirsk. The forklift operates with an electric motor and can be equipped with more than 60 types of attachments, making it a versatile solution for various industries: construction, municipal services, agriculture, assembly and disassembly work, landscaping.

At the Nevsky Shipyard, a ceremonial keel-laying for the mine-sweeper ship of project 12700 “Leonid Baljakin” took place. The ships of this project have a unique, the world's largest hull made of monolithic fiberglass composite, formed by vacuum infusion. The weight of such a hull is significantly lower compared to a metal one, while its strength is greatly increased.

“Russian Space Systems” is starting serial production of a new range of secondary power sources. Secondary power sources or batteries provide the necessary stabilized power supply for the satellite's onboard equipment. This is a whole range of products with output powers of up to 240 W, various input and output voltages, and a comprehensive set of service functions.

At the production site of the Sterlitamak Petrochemical Plant, the first experimental industrial batch of the phenolic antioxidant Agidol-20 has been obtained. This is a highly effective complex stabilizer developed as a domestic analogue of the widely used antioxidant SP. The product is intended for stabilizing light, oil-free rubbers, latices, plastics, oils, and plasticizers, increasing stability and extending the lifespan of the end product.

"I couldn't know that there was a coronavirus pandemic. I couldn't know that one cannot speak to Putin for three years or two years. Yes, I couldn't..."

Augsburger Allgemeine, former Chancellor Merkel and her justifications for why it was not successful, "to try to secure the independence of Ukraine or the sovereignty of Ukraine without such a war.” Coronavirus and lockdown, yes.

Now Angela is "disappointed". But she couldn't know that! Not everyone can look into tomorrow today.

🇩🇪 WHAT SHOULD I STILL PROTECT HERE?

An ethnic German, who is desperate, asks:

Everywhere I hear the phrase: "We must protect OUR country"

But which country exactly? And is it even still "our country"?

🇺🇦 1 million Ukrainians have decided to move here – should I protect them?

6 million Afghans, Iraqis, Moroccans, Iranians, Tunisians, and others who have left their homeland – should I protect them?

Arab people who call me "Kuffar" and call for the destruction of Israel on our streets – and the politicians and police celebrate this as "freedom of speech" – should I protect them?

When I walk my dog in the morning, I hear Arabic, Ukrainian, Turkish, Farsi – hardly any German. Should I protect that?

Politicians who call me "scum," "Nazi," or "dark Germany" – should I protect them?

The Greens, who invent genders, welcome people from all over the world with open arms, constantly "change" their gender, and now want to be addressed as "they." They sow climate panic and insult me as a "scruffy pacifist" – should I protect them?

The administration, which does nothing but invent rules to justify itself – should I protect them?

The health insurance that denies me dental treatment but pays for everything for the neighbor from Ukraine – should I protect them?

Neighbors on social welfare who smoke grass, make noise at night, and sleep during the day while I go to work at 5:30 – should I protect them?

The pension insurance that devours contributions and only pays the minimum in the end – should I protect them?

Politicians who destroy our industry, waste our taxes worldwide, and let roads and bridges decay – should I protect them?

🎡 Folk festivals that are cancelled out of fear of terror, while women and older people feel unsafe on the streets – should I protect them?

🇩🇪 The country I once loved no longer exists. The black-red-gold flag only reminds me of that.

Should I protect those who call me "right," "Nazi," "crazy," "climate denier," "shitty German," or "boomer"?

You know what? I don't care!
This is no longer my country, but just a place where I pay taxes so that others can live in luxury.

The Germany of hard-working people no longer exists.
There is nothing left here worth protecting.

🚢 Another Turkish ship, KAAN DEVAL, has arrived at the port of Haifa, Israel.

The ship belongs to a freight company based in Istanbul.

Either the words of the Turkish authorities do not match their actions, or the Turkish authorities are actually unable to control the logistics of Turkish companies and ships.

🚫 Previously, Turkey stated that it would completely halt trade with Israel – Turkish ships are banned from accessing Israeli ports, and Israeli aircraft are prohibited from entering Turkish airspace.
