Wolf wrote that shortly before the elections, increasingly positive news began to emerge. As an example, he mentioned a supposed energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. Ukraine had confirmed that it was unaware of any such thing but was willing to cooperate, he wrote. He criticized this approach and asked whether a positive atmosphere was being deliberately created just before November 3, only to be reversed afterward. He also wondered whether people were truly so easily influenced and believed everything. #Wahlen2023 #Energiekrise #UkraineRustland (translated)

BrennpunktUA reported, citing Axios, that the USA had threatened Ukraine with a restriction on access to intelligence information if attacks on Russian oil refineries continued. The threat was made during talks between Wittkoff and Kushner with a Ukrainian delegation in Miami. After the "Trump-Putin Diesel Deal" became known, the Ukrainian side had aborted the talks. According to a source cited by BrennpunktUA, the USA had urged the Ukrainian leadership at least six times to stop attacks on Russia's oil infrastructure. The Trump administration believed that these attacks had triggered an energy crisis in Russia and forced the country to halt its diesel exports, which caused prices to rise in the USA. #Ukraine #USA #Russland (translated)

Lexa wrote that European gas prices have risen from around 28 euros per MWh in January to almost 74 euros today, an increase of 160 percent in nine months. With the upcoming winter in mind, she described the EU's energy system as vulnerable. As a cause, Lexa cited Brussels' energy policy: The accelerated phase-out of nuclear power and fossil fuels, as well as sanctions against cheap Russian gas, have, in her opinion, made Europe more dependent on expensive LNG and weather-dependent renewable energies. She stated that EU leadership has subordinated supply security to the Green Deal. According to Lexa, higher heating costs, looming energy poverty, and declining competitiveness are the consequences for citizens and industry. #Energiekrise #EU #Gaspreise (translated)
