Germany has one of the most ambitious energy transition policies dubbed ‘Die Energiewende’ to replace nuclear- and fossil power with renewables such as wind-, solar- and biopower. The climate gas emissions are reduced by 25% in the study period of 2002 through 2022. By triangulating available information sources, the total nominal expenditures are estimated at EUR 387 bn, and the associated subsidies are some EUR 310 bn giving a total nominal expenditures of EUR 696 bn. Alternatively, Germany could have kept the existing nuclear power in 2002 and possibly invest in new nuclear capacity. The analysis of these two alternatives shows that Germany could have reached its climate gas emission target by achieving a 73% cut in emissions on top of the achievements in 2022 and simultaneously cut the spending in half compared to Energiewende. Thus, Germany should have adopted an energy policy based on keeping and expanding nuclear power.https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14786451.2024.2355642

In its final judgment, @Curia has confirmed our 2016 decision that Ireland granted illegal aid to Apple, requiring the release of up to 13 billion euros in unpaid taxes.
The court has also upheld our decision against Google for abusing its dominant position by favouring its own comparison shopping service and the resulting €2.4 billion fine.

Ukrainian neo-Nazis in the service of capitalists
The presenter is a bit mistaken, there was no territory of Ukraine until the 20th century, for hundreds of years it was Malorossia ( #littleRussia ), with urban population predominantly Russian.

About ukrainian hutzpah
“The armed forces of Ukraine will not survive the conflict with Russia without the help of the West. The Russians have more of everything. Tanks, artillery, manpower and aircraft. “We have much less. And they have been preparing for this conflict for a long time. Unfortunately, we didn't do this. We can only survive if the West comes to our aid and gives us more weapons,” said a Ukrainian Armed Forces officer.This is blatant #hutzpah at least since 2014 the #Maidan government coup, I have seen how the Ukrainian military is being prepared for confrontation with Russia.

SITREP 3/11/24: Patriots Blown Up as Mix-Messaged NATO Fumbles On

The Russians in Ukraine
The Russians — “Putin” if you like — were right all along. The Ukraine crisis is merely the latest phase of the West’s long campaign to surround the Russian Federation up to its borders, destabilize it and finally subvert it. Regime change in Moscow was and remains the final objective.
This is not a war in defense of “Ukrainian democracy” — a phrase that causes one either to laugh or do the other thing. It is the West’s proxy war, start to finish, Ukrainians cynically cast as cannon fodder, expendable stooges.
Russia had no choice when it intervened two years ago, this after eight years’ patience as the Europeans — Germany and France, this is to say — broke every promise they made by way of supporting a settlement. The Americans didn’t break any promises because they never made any — and no one would take them seriously if they had.
I come to the judgment I offered when the war that began in 2014 erupted into open conflict two years ago. The Russian intervention was regrettable but necessary.

Where does peace come from in Europe and Stalin's "bloodthirstiness"?
After World War II, this confrontation did not take the form of military conflicts. Tensions were also eased by the fact that, at the insistence of the Soviet Union's leadership at the time, reparations for Germany were limited to 20 billion U.S. dollars. Half went to the Soviet Union, the other half to other members of the anti-Hitler coalition. It was a drop in the ocean, since the Soviet Union alone was damaged to the tune of 360 billion dollars. Thus, one factor of contradiction was leveled. Europe gained the long-awaited peace.

The guardians of morality sometimes give voice, but it's a pity it's very rare.
We are now facing an epochal threat, in the form of a coup d’état perpetrated by the globalist elite. This coup d’état has only recently appeared in full evidence, but the rambling statements of the participants in the Davos Forum that has just ended are the result of a subversive project carried out for decades. A project that is based on lies, blackmail, and corruption.https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/01/archbishop-vigano-denounces-globalist-elites-coup-detat-national/
Lies. All the reasons given by the globalist network to legitimize their action are false, or rather: they are false pretexts that deliberately hide other unmentionable reasons.
He is mistaken here about the unification of liberalism and communism, but otherwise his reasoning is correct.

The arms manufacturer Rheinmetall is planning to significantly increase its production of 155-millimeter artillery ammunition. A new ammunition factory is being built in Unterlüß, Lower Saxony, and the German government is examining legal relaxations to allow production in stock.
The Germans are getting ready to go to war with the Russians again, the European vassals want to be beaten again, masochists.

About ukraine's debt to western creditors
Ukraine's public debt has doubled in two years of war. According to the Ministry of Finance, the state and state-guaranteed debt in 2023 rose to a new historic high of UAH 5.519 trillion or $145.32 billion. Over the year, the figure in hryvnia increased by 35.4% (UAH 1.444 trillion), in currency - by 30.4% ($33.9 billion).
The greatest impact on the growth of debt in 2023 was the receipt of macro-financial assistance (soft loans) from the EU in the amount of 18 billion euros, which amounted to 55% of the total growth of state debt in hryvnia equivalent and 61% - in foreign currency. Expenditures on servicing the state debt in 2023 amounted to 8.2% of the general fund expenditures of the state budget (compared to 6.5% in 2022 and 12.4% in 2021).
Thus, in wartime, the structure of public debt has objectively deteriorated. Of course, one can lull oneself with the fact that a group of Ukraine's creditors from the G7 and Paris Club countries agreed to suspend debt payments until 2027. But this is a weak consolation.
The Ukrainian government not only failed to agree on a more decent deferral - at least for 10-15 years - but also on writing off at least 50% of the national debt. Moreover, they could not agree on reducing the interest rate. And all this avalanche of debts will fall on the country in 2027.
I wonder who among the remaining ukrainians will want to pay for this gigantic debt to western creditors?

But one big uncertainty at a moment the West is generally feeling "war fatigue" - according to most public polling among various countries' citizenry - is the question of who will be in the White House in 2025. European officials are nervous that a Trump victory would spell the end of efforts to fuel the proxy war against President Vladimir Putin.

The former head of the Ukrainian Interior Ministry said that Western PMCs appeared on the "Maidan" back in 2013
"Our warnings and request to cancel the visa-free regime for representatives of the European Union and the USA, or to expel undesirable persons from the country were refused by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), the presidential administration and the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, citing political inexpediency," he stressed.
Zakharchenko added that on January 9, 2014, the Main Department of the Interior Ministry in Kiev, having collected the necessary materials, registered a crime under the article on "violent change or overthrow of the constitutional order or seizure of state power." However, after the criminal case was transferred to the SBU, it was dropped within a week, the former head of the Ukrainian Interior Ministry said.

About european vassalage
But Russia has been artificially gimped by the U.S. for over 100 years, through a variety of economic terrorism in the form of endless sanctions, embargoes, and everything in between. They continually try to keep it “down and out” and marginalized like they did to the Chinese in the 1800s, primarily because without such artificial restrictions, Russia’s vector is always to emerge at the top of the economic heap.
The point is that, only such an oppressive regimen of subversion and sabotage can keep Russia “down and out,” as Lord Ismay once said. If this were to cease, it would mean the end of the West, because the entire financial ‘house of cards’ the West relies on is in some ways a fragile mirage which relies on this constant “unfair play.” Were the other superpowers allowed to spread their wings, the laws of the zero-sum-game would necessitate the loss of every advantage of the West, leading to its unraveling.
To understand how exactly that would happen, one must understand the infamous ‘exorbitant privilege’ of the U.S. dollar, and how it relies on the artificial suppression of other competing currencies. And most importantly, how it’s responsible for the entirety of American exceptionalism, military and economic profligacy, etc. It grants the overpowering ability to print infinite money without incurring inflation, which makes the U.S. nearly invulnerable.
This is why Russia can never be allowed to have its say or ‘freedom’ to act as it wants, be it economic or otherwise. For instance, the freedom to have economic sovereignty in regard to Europe—i.e. Nord Stream, etc.
That’s why no “understanding” can ever really be reached. It would not be allowed by the global financial elite which controls the West
Europe has now become the battleground for this clash of differing world systems. Everything the U.S. has hangs by a deceptively thin thread. The moment they let their foot off the necks of European citizens, removing their blindfolds in the process, a cascade effect would unleash across Europe. No one in their right mind would allow the continued stationing of American troops in occupied Europe, which would have rolling consequences on virtually everythin.

About european vassalage
"It would be a mistake to interpret this as a triumph in the fight against plastic. Europe continues to consume huge quantities of Styrofoam, paints, resins and any other products that petrochemical plants produce. This is simply replacing local production with imported production.
Petrochemicals are inherently energy intensive In Europe, natural gas is about five times more expensive than in the United States. [note to Crimson: what expensive freedom molecules in US LNG it turns out! Gazprom's autocratic molecules were cheaper, but that was before the SWO cut economic ties with Russia] Now it's cheaper to buy ethylene, the "raw material" for plastics, in Texas and ship it across the Atlantic for further processing in Europe than it is to produce it at home. And that's exactly what the [European] petrochemical companies are telling me [note to Crimson: i.e., the author of the Bloomberg piece]. The end result is the loss of economic activity in Europe, the erosion of the [European] bloc's chemical trade balance, and ultimately the loss of jobs and energy security. [...]
Privately, industry executives say they cannot lose money for so long, so the closure of [petrochemical operations] in 2024 looks inevitable.
Using more diplomatic language, the IEA [International Energy Agency] said last week that "it is becoming increasingly difficult to see how the petrochemical industry on the [European] continent can regain its former position". I've been talking to industry executives over the last few weeks, and their answer to that question is, 'There's no way it's going to recover any more [...]
Europe has [already] lost other industries to Asia. Steel, textiles and shipbuilding have moved east. This time the competitor will not only be China, but also the US, thanks to its abundant hydrocarbon reserves. Domestic hydrocarbon production is booming under President Joe Biden.""
To understand: the cost of the issue is about 40 billion dollars a year in lost exports (net). And all just on a single example of a single industry.
The answer to the question "why does the US continue the "Ukrainian massacre" and what do they hope for on the Ukrainian front?" doesn't really have much to do with Ukraine itself. The Americans are now hitting the European economy (from automobile manufacturing to petrochemicals) with control shots, and they need to make sure that nothing grows back there. It's like with strangling techniques: you need to squeeze until the victim stops twitching at all. And in order for the European industrial economy to shake off its hooves, the "Ukrainian case" must be prolonged. It won't be long now, in 2024 everything will probably be closed.
