Théo Bourgeron, The Jacobin 07.05.2024: "The ascent of far-right movements is a tool that specific parts of the business world use to realign the balance of power between business sectors to their own advantage. In the case of the Rassemblement National, it is clear that the party seeks — and secures — support from certain groups of business owners. "
" The Rassemblement National has developed a project for the sector called “sovereign tech.” Many French tech entrepreneurs find this proposal appealing as they struggle with American big tech giants and seek to gain market share in France and Europe, especially in cloud computing and social networks. For example, the Rassemblement National manifesto proposes forcing foreign firms in strategic tech sectors operating in France to sell parts of their businesses to French or European competitors and would require US social networks to implement moderation strategies defined by French lawmakers for French content."

MOSCOW, Jan 23 (Reuters) - The Baltic Sea port of Ust-Luga was exporting crude oil and fuel on Tuesday apart from at Novatek's (NVTK.MM)
, opens new tab terminal which remained closed after being damaged by fire, according to data from LSEG and industry sources.
Novatek said on Sunday it had been forced to suspend some operations at the huge Baltic Sea fuel export terminal and "technological processes" at its fuel-producing complex due to a fire, started by what Ukrainian media said was a drone attack.
Analysts believe it will take weeks to restart large-scale operations at the complex and the terminal.
The giant port of Ust-Luga, located on the Gulf of Finland about 170 km (110 miles) west of St. Petersburg, ships a wide range of goods, including oil and gas products, to international markets.
Its facilities include one terminal for crude oil exports and three terminals for handling fuel shipments, including Novatek's terminal.
According to LSEG data, 5.2 million tons of naphtha were shipped to Asia in 2023 from the port of Ust-Luga, of which 2.8 million tons originated from Novatek's terminal.
Oil and gas companies are following the science – indeed, they are using the most advanced science available, and they are using it to extract even more fossil fuel.

Importiert Deutschland weiter russisches Öl?

Zahlen des Statistischen Bundesamts lassen den Schluss zu, dass Deutschland über Indien weiterhin größere Mengen russisches Öl importiert. Die Einfuhren aus Indien haben sich vervielfacht.

Trotz Lieferstopp wird Russland über Umwege zum drittgrößten LNG-Lieferanten Europas.
Die EU und vor allem Deutschland haben die Abhängigkeit von Erdgas aus Russland stark verringert. So erhält die Bundesrepublik seit dem 2. September 2022 vorn dort kein Pipeline-Gas mehr, dem Tag, an dem Moskau einen Lieferstopp verhängte. Doch es gibt eine Hintertür für die Einfuhr von russischem Gas, die offenbar zunehmend genutzt wird. Seit Beginn des Ukraine-Krieges kommen nach neuen Daten des US-Thinktanks IEEFA an europäischen Flüssiggas-Terminals rund zwölf Prozent mehr LNG aus Russland an. Damit ist Russland der drittgrößte LNG-Lieferant Europas – nach den USA und Katar. Und das Gas gelangt über Umwege teilweise auch nach Deutschland

The study made used of secondary and primary data sources. Data that were collected through survey involved the distribution of structured questionnaires to a sample of 400 smallholders who were purposively selected from two sub-divisions. The data collected through these questionnaires were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science and Micro Soft Excel, and the interpreted resulted were presented using descriptive method, pie charts and in tables. Results indicated actors in the value chain were faced the constraints of inadequate capital, inadequate storage facilities, and fluctuation in market prices, inadequate roads, among others. Results further indicated that the activity was important as it provided opportunities such as job creation, health enhancement, education enhancement, income amelioration among others to the actors in the value chain.

Nafeez Ahmed 30 Oct 2015, Military solutions are not the answer to the perfect storm of climate, energy, food, economic and geopolitical crises facing Russia
Nafeez Ahmed: "So the US is not targeting the Islamic State’s financial lifeline - its black market oil infrastructure - but instead is teaming up with the same al-Qaeda affiliated groups that spawned IS in the first place, to undermine Assad. And Russia, for all its muscle-flexing rhetoric, sees its main priority as countering US-led efforts to topple Assad, by targeting his most immediate opponents.
This is, in other words, a New Cold War between competing empires, the unending victims of which are the Syrian people. As for the Islamic State, it is little more than the proxy bastard child of a conflict that looks set to escalate.

Edgardo Lander argues that Venezuela’s once-hopeful revolution is coming to an end, because it failed to overcome the Leninist logic of verticality as well as the model of the rentier state.
"Electoral calculations eliminate all possibility of transformation, of going beyond, of imagining a different country, because the starting point is what already exists. In this sense, electoral competition has an extraordinarily conservative effect on political systems, reaffirming ‘common sense’; whoever goes beyond these limits will have big problems."
"Neither in political debates nor in government programmes is there an acknowledgment of where we are. The two party political forces differ in absolutely everything, except for one small detail: both offer (at least when Chávez was last elected) an oil production of six million barrels a day by the end of this constitutional period. They disagree on everything else except the idea of strengthening the oil rentier-state model. But this is precisely what needs to be discussed. The problem is that there is a nation-wide rentier-state consensus. "

UPI Oct 20: "Africa's exports of oil to the United States, largely from Nigeria and the dictator state of Equatorial Guinea, are roughly equal to those of the Middle East." "A major oil strike was made around Lake Albert in western Uganda in 2006, and geologists say it contains at least 2 billion barrels.Only 25 percent of the region, which includes the Democratic Republic of the Congo, has so far been explored, and some reports say there could be up to 6 billion barrels there.Uganda expects to start producing an initial 200,000 barrels per day in early 2012."

Meanwhile, to minimal serious coverage in the media and on the internet, the Nord Stream was inaugurated in Lubmin on Germany’s Baltic Coast on Nov. 8 in the presence of Pres. Medvedev of Russia and the prime ministers of Germany, France, and the Netherlands, plus the director of Gazprom, Russia’s gas exporter, and the European Union’s Energy Commissioner. This is a geopolitical game-changer, unlike all the widely discussed non-events that are not going to happen.

Varför utvecklas inte utvecklingsländerna och varför tenderar istället de globala inkomstskillnaderna att öka? Varför kan inte andra länder skydda sin miljö lika bra som vi i Sverige, och varför tilltar istället skogsskövlingen, utfiskningen, utsläppen och miljöförstöringen för vart år som går? Dessa frågor besvarar Alf Hornborg, professor i humanekologi i Lund, i form av ett komplext, ambitiöst och långtgående teoretiskt ramverk som han utvecklat i texter som är skrivna under de senaste 15 åren och som nu är samlade i hans bok ”Myten om maskinen: Essäer om makt, modernitet och miljö” (2010).
