The #russian #military is actively #probing #nato controlled #airspace https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/n..
#india 's #energy is under even more #pressure as a #heatwave means people are turning on their #airconditioning to #survive https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/he.. The #problem is that they are being pushed further towards #russian #supplies , meaning they are now #politically #compromised as #germany recently #experienced .
#trump was right about #germany 's #dependency on #russian #oil https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/trump-w.. I also mentioned this on a #coffeespace #article a few months back: https://coffeespace.org.uk/blogs/trump-p.. It's not looking good at all, with very few #options now available to #germans .
Looks like #china 's #ccp is now #paying for #russian #coal in #yuan - meaning they have now picked a side despite saying they were " #neutral ": https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/fi.. You *cannot* be a neutral entity when you're #financially #incentivized to let one side #win . Obviously, #ukraine doesn't #trust them either.
#eu and #nato looking to send #weapons to #ukraine now: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/g.. They are also now looking to #ban #russian #gas and #oil https://youtube.com/watch?v=K55aDtRkQ-c Hopefully they will better look after their #economic and #security #interests better in the future.

Very interesting, it appears the #eu are still #buying #refined #russian #fuel by #blending it with fuel from other #source - called a #latvian #blend https://www.bloombergquint.com/gadfly/uk.. Apparently this is running through #shell to #bypass #sanctions , interesting indeed.
#china 's #ccp #confirmed to be #buying #russian #coal and #oil in #yuan https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/b.. This perhaps will mean that #biden will #sanction #china as he #promised he would - although it would be #devastating to the #us #economy ...
It appears that #ukraine may still be #attacking a #russian #border #city to take out #strategic #military #support https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/m.. Talk about bring the #fight to #putin - and also proving that #russia is now #unable to #defend their vast lands.
#ukraine appear to now have a #bounty for taking down #russian #military #assets , I guess this is what they are doing with their #additional #foreign #funding https://www.zerohedge.com/military/ukrai.. Not a bad idea from their #perspective , should #motivate #mercenary groups too.
Looks like the #russian #ruble is making a #comeback , #despite #sanctions still in place and the #invasion in #ukraine still #ongoing https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/russ.. Looks like #sanctions do not work for long.
Insane if true, apparently #ukrainian #forces have #destroyed a #russian #fuel #depo - in #russia https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/u.. This really is a massive #escalation in the #invasion as this is a #direct #attack on #russian #soil .
The #us #economy must be *really* bad if the #russian #threat is at its highest level since the #coldwar - and the #us is still cutting #soldiers https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/army-p.. Not a great look and this brings them to under 1 #million #soldiers , only half of which are #active #duty ...
