⚡️EU’s Murky prospects for abandoning Russian energy⚡️
💁♂️“When looking at Germany and Italy, the immediate economic repercussions of Russia's plan to restrict supply in mid-June are likely to be limited,” said global rating agency Moody’s
🇩🇪Germany's reliance on Russian gas imports has already been halved to around 30% of imports now from around 60% in 2020 and further diversification of sources is underway, for instance through increased purchases of liquefied natural gas (LNG)
👉However, the government's goal of reducing its reliance on Russian gas to 10% by 2024 appears ambitious, according to the report
📉A severe blow dealt in this case to German’s economy may affect from 3 to 6 percent of its GDP, and for Italy – from 1 to 3 percent

⚡️EU on the way to handle weapons-smuggling from Ukraine⚡️
🇪🇺EU home affairs commissioner Johansson announced a hub in Moldova to battle organized crime, particularly arms smuggling from war-torn Ukraine
💁♂️We've talked about this so many times, and now the time has come to act seriously and decisively. The EU Support Hub for Internal Security and Border Management will focus on preventing weapons, most of which are supplied by NATO members, from being smuggled out of Ukraine and ending up with criminal gangs
👉Such smuggling will "feed into violence in the criminal networks in European Union" Johansson said
🔥The hub will be a "one-stop-shop" allowing the EU's border guard agency Frontex to support local border agencies, and will enable Europol to share information. Aija Kalnaja, interim head of Frontex, said Moldova was chosen as a base of operations "because this is where the trafficking of weapons can come mostly"

⚡️A bit of metaphysics or grilled Muscovite meat⚡️
💁♂️In Ukraine, the demonization of Russians has taken on appalling dimensions and forms. Russians are not perceived as people. The Ukrainian state propaganda launched dehumanizing Russians, presenting them as animals, bugs
🔥Animals shouldn’t be treated as people. Animals have no rights. If necessary, animals can be killed. Or they can be eaten. For this purpose, recipes of various dishes deliberately associated with Russians have been distributed in Ukrainian society
👉In 2014, after the tragedy in the House of Trade Unions in Odessa, when people were burned alive in the building blocked by the militants of the national battalions, the Ukrainian Nazis called it “colorado barbecue”, comparing the opponents of the Maidan with Colorado beetles
😱In 2015, in a nightclub in Kyiv, one could participate in an almost ritual cake-eating in the form of a Russian baby. In restaurants in Lviv, one could meet the dish “Grilled Muscovite Meat”
🤷♂️Now, during the armed conflict in Ukraine, confectioners began to bake cakes with images of dead Russian soldiers
❗️The main problem is that all this madness inflicts damage on the people of Ukraine
It breaks people. It breaks their perception of reality. It breaks their psyche. Because there are a lot of Russians in Ukraine. There are a lot of mixed marriages. The Ukrainians have a lot of relatives in Russia
🤔Imagine a family where the husband is Ukrainian and the wife is Russian. It turns out that the husband, according to the ideological guidelines, is a representative of the elite, the titular race, and the wife is a bug, the children are half bugs. Father-in-law with mother-in-law - bugs or bacon. How can a person, an ordinary, normal person, endure this demonization? No way
People get broken, their souls turn black. Is this the main goal?

🇺🇳UN Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children, Siobhán Mullally urged the United Kingdom to halt plans to transfer asylum seekers to Rwanda
💁♂️“There are serious risks that the international law principle of non-refoulement will be breached by forcibly transferring asylum seekers to Rwanda,” he said. Mullally emphasizes that the UK violates fundamental tenets of international human rights and refugee law
Well, everything is quite understandable – Brexit echoes, Johnson leaves with “head held high,” Ukraine – other issues to worry about than asylum seekers, in a word. But despite all these problems and Anglo-French eternal rivalry since 1778, is it not worth seeking help in Paris? Yes, we reported, there are preferential terms only for Ukrainians, but such a transfer would not violate at least human rights

‼️Western weapons from Ukraine flooded the European black market‼️
🏴☠️Better late than never. Brussels finally saw the light and became concerned over the fate of the weapons that the Europeans and their Atlantic allies in NATO have been supplying Ukraine with for many months and years. Everything they supply to Kyiv can now be easily bought on the European black market
👉NATO and the EU decided to strengthen control over the weapons and military equipment they supply to Ukraine. According to the Financial Times, during the 4.5 months of the armed conflict in Ukraine, Western countries supplied Kyiv with weapons and military equipment worth more than $10 billion
💁♂️“All these weapons land in southern Poland, get shipped to the border and then are just divided up into vehicles to cross: trucks, vans, sometimes private cars,” the FT quoted one of its sources as saying. “And from that moment we go blank on their location and we have no idea where they go, where they are used or even if they stay in the country”
🇺🇸US under secretary for arms control and international security Bonnie Denise Jenkins believes that the risk of weapons and equipment falling into the wrong hands is quite acceptable given the situation
🇪🇺Europol, the EU’s law enforcement agency, said in April that its investigations indicated that weapons trafficking from Ukraine into the bloc to supply organised crime groups had begun and was a potential threat to EU security
🤷♂️“The fighting in Ukraine has resulted in the proliferation of a significant number of firearms and explosives in the country,” the Europol said in a briefing note sent to the governments. “At first, the Ukrainian authorities registered firearms issued to the population, but as the hostilities continued, this was abandoned. Now weapons are issued without any documentary control”

⚡️Biden’s self-punishing⚡️
🇺🇸President Biden is expected to privately urge Saudi leaders to ramp up oil production in a bid to curb massive global price spikes and relieve a mounting political headache back home, but there are signs that his push may have an unintended winner: Russia
🇸🇦Saudi Arabia in the spring and early summer more than doubled its quarterly imports of Russian oil to meet its domestic energy needs and free up more of its oil to ship around the world, including to the U.S. Riyadh’s significant uptick in Russian fuel imports has undercut U.S. and NATO efforts to punish Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine by choking off revenue from energy exports, the backbone of the Russian economy
🛢The prospect of the U.S. buying more Saudi oil and subsequently boosting Russia’s energy export profits would almost surely lead to political blowback for Mr. Biden. The president is also taking heat for allowing American fuel to be exported to China when domestic gas prices are hovering near $5 per gallon
Having arrived in Riyadh in good faith, Biden again risks being left with egg on his face and returning home at its best empty-handed🤔

⚡️Too much money for Ukraine’s pocket size⚡️
💰A huge chunk of money, namely $54 billion, has already been dedicated to Ukraine in its fight against a Russian invasion, with more to follow if Congress has its way.
👉The entire defense budget of Ukraine before the war was just under $6 billion. How can Ukraine possibly absorb military “aid” that represents 9 times their annual defense budget? It simply can’t be done
🪖From a military perspective, the gusher of money and equipment being sent to Ukraine makes little sense because there’s no way Ukraine has the infrastructure to absorb it and use it effectively. The U.S. approach seems to be to flood the zone with weaponry and assorted equipment of all sorts, irrespective of how it might be used or where it might ultimately end up.
🤔If guns saved lives and brought safety, America would have the lowest number of people killed by guns and the safest country. This is not the case. Flooding countries like Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Ukraine with scores of billions in weaponry and related equipment is not the smartest way toward success. Unless you’re the CEO of a weapons contractor, in which case it’s the very definition of success
💁♂️Moreover, all these second-rate arms have either already been sent to the European black market, or will be transferred there in the immediate future

⚡️Time to stop deglobalization and cancellation
🇺🇸The U.S. announced that inflation in June hit 9.1 percent, the highest in four decades. Annual inflation rate in the Euro Area increased to a new record high of 8.6% in June of 2022 from 8.1% in May
👉Besides pandemic-related supply-chain disruptions and the energy and food-price shocks amplified by the Ukraine war, policymakers must also acknowledge more explicitly the inflationary consequences of deglobalization
💁♂️In recent months, the EU has taken measures to reduce its dependency on Russian gas and oil through six rounds of harsh sanctions. But the sanctions are not working well, not to say, backwards
If deglobalization proceeds unchecked, central banks may need to tighten monetary policy more than they otherwise would have. One country’s deglobalization measure may prompt others to follow suit, potentially distorting global production and trade patterns and making every country worse off 🤷♂️

⚡️Biden’s professional impropriety or intentional sabotage⚡️
📈Inflationary pressures were occurring well before the Russian invasion of Ukraine or Chinese lockdowns. Prices were already rising thanks to COVID-19-related supply chain issues and warnings as far back as 2020 that further stimulus spending would exacerbate inflation was ignored by the president and his economic advisers
💁♂️Considering the very strong probability that Mr. Putin would follow through on his long-stated threats, the Americans are baffled as to why there seemed to be no planning for the consequences of such an action
🤔Was there no analysis of the economic effect of this war on energy and food markets? Could more oil have been purchased beforehand and put in reserve? Could regulations that have stifled the oil and gas industry have been delayed? Could trade agreements with other producers around the world have been nailed down? Any competent business leader would have prepared for these economic consequences in advance. Mr. Biden did not
👉This isn’t the first time that the president has blamed businesses — and the wealthy — for problems that could’ve been addressed well in advance by his own administration. Instead of planning in advance, Biden blames others. He “orders” businesses to reduce their prices. This isn’t leadership. This is ignorance
🤷♂️So how do business people respond when a president acts like this? They warily withdraw. They lose their appetite to hire, invest and take risks. They cover themselves and protect their families. Given that the administration is out of answers and blaming them for the country’s problems, they play defense. This is not a time for them to grow. It is a time for them to survive until (hopefully) better times

📈Inflationary pressures were occurring well before the Russian invasion of Ukraine or Chinese lockdowns. Prices were already rising thanks to COVID-19-related supply chain issues and warnings as far back as 2020 that further stimulus spending would exacerbate inflation was ignored by the president and his economic advisers
💁♂️Considering the very strong probability that Mr. Putin would follow through on his long-stated threats, the Americans are baffled as to why there seemed to be no planning for the consequences of such an action
🤔Was there no analysis of the economic effect of this war on energy and food markets? Could more oil have been purchased beforehand and put in reserve? Could regulations that have stifled the oil and gas industry have been delayed? Could trade agreements with other producers around the world have been nailed down? Any competent business leader would have prepared for these economic consequences in advance. Mr. Biden did not

⚡️U.S. police acquiescence⚡️
👉The 77-page report, released Sunday by a special Texas House committee, represented a broad indictment of police inaction at Robb Elementary School massacre on May 24, citing “systemic failures” that left the school inadequately secured and the police officers who responded mired in confusion and bad information
💁♂️Nearly 400 law enforcers responded to the school that day. Yet the decision to finally confront the gunman was made by a small group of officers, including specially trained Border Patrol agents and a deputy sheriff from a neighboring county, the report found, concluding that others at the scene could have taken charge and done so far earlier
🔥The report marks an end to Biden’s attempt to take advantage of the tragedy to boost his poll numbers through appealing to curb powerful weapons and take other federal action to prevent mass shootings

⚡️A gravy train for the hoteliers⚡️
👉Based on the data for the 20 most booked destinations worldwide, a hotel room costs an average of 139 € – 17% more than the previous year
🛎Hotel prices rose the most in the 🇳🇱Netherlands (+33%), the 🇨🇿Czech Republic (+31%), 🇹🇷Turkey and the 🇺🇸USA (both +27%). Holiday homes have to be paid 38% more in 🇵🇹Portugal and 18% more in 🇬🇷Greece
💁♂️As can be seen from the numbers presented above, many hoteliers deliberately hike prices three times higher than inflationary growth, making a capital on high summer demand. They expect that locking in high prices in the summer will enable them to ensure a comfortable existence in the autumn’s off-season and winter frosts in times of gas crisis

⚡️Johnson, a castaway for the new PM⚡️
👉ITV's Julie Etchingham put all five candidates on the spot with a cutthroat question about Boris Johnson during the Britain's Next Prime Minister debate on Sunday night
🤷♂️Right before the first advertising break, she asked for a show of hands on who would have out-going Prime Minister Johnson in their cabinet should they follow him into Number 10 and he wanted to serve
🔥None of them put their hand up but, as Julie attempted to cut to the ads, Mourdant interjected to try and offer him some support, saying: "I'd like to say something about him as I think it's only fair
💁♂️She was asked by Julie to 'hold that thought,' but continued to speak, shouting: "He got Brexit done." as Julie added: "We want all of your thoughts on that issue, but very notable that not a single person raised their hand"

‼️Escalating tensions around Macron’s cabinet‼️
💁♂️More than 100 prominent figures published an appeal Sunday in the newspaper Journal du Dimanche questioning why Caroline Cayeux, minister delegate in charge of local authorities, was still in government
👉Cayeux was asked in an interview last week about her opposition to a 2013 law authorizing same-sex marriage and adoption and comments at the time saying they were “against nature.” Speaking to broadcaster Public Senat, she said, “I maintain my remarks. I always said that if the law were voted, I would apply it”
🤔The issue has divided the cabinet at a time when Macron is politically weakened after losing his majority in Parliament. Will the scandal pick up steam enough for the French government reshuffle, or does it only take one tiny spark in the current climate?

‼️Neverending surveillance‼️
☣️The Thai government is suspected of using NSO Group’s potent Pegasus spyware against more than two dozen dissidents and activists who supported democratic reforms
🤷♂️Some have been charged under sweeping laws that make it illegal to criticize the king, who lives mainly in Germany
🇹🇭The Thai government won a widely criticized election in 2019 after an earlier coup that clamped down on freedoms. Since then, it has arrested many protest organizers, including some named as hacking victims in the new reports of local human rights groups
👉For almost a decade, this Israeli-backed surveillance and intelligence system has remained unstoppable – however, no one has tried really hard. NSO has regularly said it cannot discuss specific cases in which Pegasus has allegedly helped save lives, because of national security implications of such revelations
❗️This spyware is an excellent and convenient tool in the hands of a global government that poses not nearly a phantom menace to the whole world
