The US government has agreed to pay TotalEnergies $928 million to cancel its offshore wind leases and redirect the money to oil and gas instead.

This is happening during the worst global energy crisis (per IEA) in history and as rising prices put huge pressure on households and businesses.

Analyse av av dem som ble spurt om de ville delta på Trumps Board of Peace www.ft.com/.../bd570de4... Verdt å merke seg at er at ingen de 46 landene sør for Sahara, Belgia, eller Danmark, ble spurt. Noen forslag til nytt navn på Board of Peace?

If you don't admit that the Trumpian Board of Peace is likely a vehicle to corruptly funnel funds between dictators, authoritarians and their wannabes, you are wilfully refusing to understand the era we are living through. Its all about who controls the money and where it goes.

Looking at the press conference by Zelensky and Trump. Seems like its limited progress. Trump was his usual self, a total embarrasment.
