@vtchakarova I love the smell of geopolitics in the morning. Makes you see the reality hidden in plain sight

Gas-Fertilizer-Food-Famine-Severe Poverty-Political Turmoil and Revolutions Politicians must keep this on the wall in their cabinets.

@rioferdy5 Ehh patrão, super bock geladinha para mostrar quem manda.

That feeling when Liverpool + Chelsea drop points in the race for the top 4! 🍻 Cheers

@ChefeJamon @jcaetanodias É por estas e por outras que depois de uma visita ao Aldi, assim que entro no carro mamo logo tudo e elimino as provas, assim ninguém julga

@jcaetanodias Fds já não se pode mamar em paz

Uma pessoa. Seis pastéis.

@vtchakarova I wonder why the Peace Nobel thought it was a good idea to poke a hornet nest. This is starting to look like the 3 day invasion but with worse global impacts and unknown consequences for the region and world.

Things are not moving according to the plan.

@vtchakarova Can Europe join in? They have been monitoring the situation and are not pleased with the events.

Okay

@ChefeJamon But plug com um pau?

Mamei só para ver se gostava mas acho que não tornava a mamar.

@bryan_johnson Pet rescue is the way. They need help, a family, love, it's not their fault!

I'm thinking about getting two dogs. What breeds should I consider?

@vtchakarova Reminds me something

Post of the Day: Secretary of Defense Hegseth says that the Strait of Hormuz is “open for transit” but the only thing preventing the transit of ships is the continued drone and missile attacks by Iran. Which basically makes the Strait de facto closed.

@ChefReactions Hopefully you will see Gyokeres scoring 1 or 2

@vtchakarova When I read this, why do I feel we have donkeys with eye flaps running Europe?

Save this post to come back to it later as it won't age very well. In separate ad hoc meetings of the Gas Coordination Group and the Oil Coordination Group held yesterday, the Commission and EU countries coordinated and assessed the situation concerning the EU’s gas and oil security of supply in view of the continued disruptions in the Middle East. During the exchange, EU countries confirmed that they do not observe any security of supply risks at the moment. Oil stocks remain at a high level, gas storage filling levels in the EU remain stable. EU countries agreed that the regulatory framework provides for sufficient flexibility and gas storages should not be refilled at all costs. The Oil Coordination Group welcomed the voluntary nature and timing flexibility of the International Energy Agency’s 400-million-barrel release announced yesterday while calling for an assessment of its medium-term impact on supply security. The Commission will continue to monitor the situation and keep regular communication with EU countries and market participants. In case of a prolonged closure of the strait of Hormuz or further disruptions, the EU security of oil and gas supply will be reassessed. The next Oil Coordination Group meeting will take place on 19 March whereas the next Gas Coordination Group meeting is scheduled for 26 March.

@vtchakarova Could it be that this was caused by a miscalculation like the 3 day special operation and not by design? Seems like for the US they will finish the war when they want (whatever it now means) and Israel just does what it wants.

SIMULTANEITY THESIS APPLIED: The defining condition of a systemic crisis is that multiple co-constitutive stressors compound faster than any single actor or institution can respond. In the context of the ongoing war in Iran, this condition is activated across six dimensions simultaneously: 1) energy supply, 2) fertiliser supply, 3) chip supply, 4) maritime logistics, 5) sovereign fiscal capacity, and 6) central bank policy space. All six are constrained simultaneously and all six share the same geographic origin point (the Strait of Hormuz) — meaning they cannot be resolved sequentially; only a single geopolitical resolution (ceasefire + Hormuz reopening) can address all six at once. This is the structural reason why standard crisis management frameworks are inadequate: they are designed for single-shock sequential resolution, not systemic risks with multiplicative effects of the scale of the ongoing war in Iran.

@vtchakarova This is a world Europe does not wish to take part!

No, impossible.

@vtchakarova Hey you got to stay positive and hope there's common sense. Although reality tells us otherwise

If someone from the European Commission reads my posts, here‘s my free advise: reactivate immediately the EU collective gas purchase platform! The AggregateEU platform will enable to gather the small-scale gas purchases by some EU countries that will otherwise face tough markets.

@vtchakarova Does she need a drawing? Have these people been living under a rock?

Who is writing such instantly irrelevant becoming stuff for VdL‘s speeches? A genuine question. Von der Leyen today at a conference for EU ambassadors: "We will always defend ⁠and uphold the rules-based system that we helped to build with our allies, but we can no longer rely on it as the only way to defend our interests or assume its rules will shelter us from the complex threats that we face," von der Leyen said ‌at ⁠a conference for EU ambassadors. „We urgently need to reflect on whether our doctrine, our institutions and our decision making – all designed in a postwar world of ⁠stability and multilateralism – have kept pace with the speed of change around us. Whether the system that we ⁠built – with all of its well-intentioned attempts at consensus and compromise – is more a help ⁠or a hindrance to our credibility as a geopolitical actor," she added.

@BilbiaOfissial Pechincha! Ainda era capaz de dar gorjeta ao senhorio

Arrendar e renovar ✅

@vtchakarova Time to step up in Ukraine support and open a new avenue. EU leadership, hello!

The longer the war continues in Iran, the harder the consequences for Europe will be - oil, gas, fertilizers, on top of major security threats for the old continent I don‘t even want to start pointing out. First victim will be the full diversification away from Russian oil & gas.

@vtchakarova The EU comission is monitoring the situation and will meet next Monday.

@vonderleyen @vtchakarova short weekend in europe

I just spoke to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia. As our strategic partner, we will work closely with you to de-escalate and safeguard regional stability. You can count on our full support in these turbulent times. The European Union–Gulf Cooperation Council partnership will only get stronger in the period ahead.
