Natural gas in Europe just turned negative today after its highest price only a few months ago. Incredible job replenishing the inventory. They did not mess around.

More than one analyst in the US continues to ask a basic question: “Can anything ever force Europe as a whole to pull its own weight militarily?” To date I’ve seen no convincing answers in the affirmative. A conventional land war has been insufficient.
To be fair, they usually spent their money and time fighting each other up until about 80 years ago, and they learned to not invade Russia for any reason, because it’s massive and cold, and nobody has the supply lines to reach that far. Also, there’s no reason to do it, because nobody else wants the land.More than one analyst in the US continues to ask a basic question: “Can anything ever force Europe as a whole to pull its own weight militarily?” To date I’ve seen no convincing answers in the affirmative.

Meanwhile in Russia: one state TV panelist ruins the host's pompous announcement that Russia's war against Ukraine is becoming "the people's war" when he foams at the mouth about circulating proposals to draft "bums and deadbeats." There's some obligatory racism and much more.
THAT WAS FAST Margarita Simonyan says, according to "the Russian culture, the Orthodox culture," it’s her duty to forgive Anton Krasovsky after he “repented” for his vile comments about drowning or burning Ukrainian kids. Could a reinstatement be far off?
For the first time in 80 years, the 101st Airborne Division (of Band of Brothers fame) has brought its headquarters to Europe, along with nearly 5,000 troops. Their HQ is very close to Romania’s border with Ukraine. The division is conducting realistic training alongside Romanian troops explicitly directed towards intervention in the war.
