📈 European Gas Prices Surge amid Rising Geopolitical Tensions

European gas prices climbed to their highest levels this year - following Ukraine’s launch of British Storm Shadow cruise missiles into Russia.

The benchmark Dutch gas contracts rose 2.61%, reaching €46.86 per megawatt-hour, reflecting heightened market anxiety as tensions show no signs of abating.

🧐 UK Govt Slashes £500MN from Defense Budget

The British Armed Forces cuts were announced just hours after Storm Shadow cruise missiles were fired into Russia for the first time.

As well as the Army’s Watchkeeper drone program, the Royal Navy’s Landing Platform Docks, HMS Albion and HMS Bulwark and the Type 23 frigate HMS Northumberland will also be scrapped.

UK defense sec John Healey also confirmed that the wave class tankers RFA Wave Knight and RFA Wave Ruler were to be axed, as well as 14 of the RAF’s oldest Chinooks and 17 Puma Helicopters.

As London ramps up the war rhetoric, behind the scenes it is weakening its defenses… It’s an expensive business propping up Kiev.

❌ UPDATE: ICC found reasonable grounds to believe that Netanyahu and Gallant “bear criminal responsibility for the war crime of intentionally directing attacks against the civilian population of Gaza”

The court also found reasonable grounds that both Israeli leaders “intentionally and knowingly deprived the civilian population in Gaza of objects indispensable to survival, including food, water and medicine.”

What will the Western leaders say now? They are all complicit.

⚠️ Trump Wants to Resurrect Keystone XL Pipeline - Politico

President-elect Donald Trump intends to revive the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office - after Biden shut it down upon his inauguration.

The 1,200-mile pipeline, developed by TC Energy, was supposed to carry some 800k bpd of Canadian heavy crude to US refineries.

“The US decision to revoke the permit was unfair and inequitable," TC Energy said in an arbitration filing back in 2021, with which it sought compensation for the losses it suffered from the cancelation of its project.
