What the CEO of Rheinmetall said was insulting — yes, shortsighted — yes, but what is more worrying — his words can actually be deadly. In my country, Rheinmetall is a major contractor — tanks, Skyrangers, an ammunition factory, etc. But what is more interesting is that questions about our preparedness for a potential drone war were always drowned in a flood of arguments very similar to Mr. Papperger’s. The military establishment, lobbyists, experts — the whole lot — were telling our people that this drone thing is just a fad which will soon go away. And we should be focusing on legacy war fighting, and therefore legacy equipment. It lead to the acknowledgment that we have almost no ability to detect and to fight the Russian drones. So maybe relying solely on the military advice from a company selling one kind of equipment wasn’t such a brilliant idea. I just hope that by now we know where we went wrong, and we will find sufficient humility to ask for assistance elsewhere. And I sincerely hope that the Ukrainian housewives will share their deadly knowledge with us.

@yousefmsafr @Zoranaralica Option 4 is to ally with Ukraine and learn how to fight back. That is a win-win.

@FurkanGozukara @Zoranaralica The claim that Joe Kent admitted the U.S. government intentionally armed Al Qaeda and created ISIS in Syria is not supported by credible, mainstream sources. It appears to be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of his broader criticisms of U.S. foreign policy

Absolute bombshell. Former Counterterrorism Director Joe Kent admits the US government intentionally armed Al Qaeda and created ISIS in Syria. They deliberately unleashed a global terror network just to overthrow Assad and protect Israel.

Nepal's EV revolution in one chart. In 2019, EVs were 1% of new car sales. By 2024: 75%+ While ICE imports collapsed from 10,000+ to ~3,500 units, EV imports surged to nearly 12,000.

AFRICA SOLAR: 7 months later, and still new records are being set☀️ DRC🇨🇩, Egypt🇪🇬, Mozambique🇲🇿, Zambia🇿🇲 and Zimbabwe🇿🇼 show a particularly new step up...

How far can you go for ten euros in an #ICE car and a #BEV with today's prices in Denmark 🇩🇰 Again today, #WindPower alone covers near 100% of the #electricity demand, so home charging at night (or noon) is the cheapest and greenest, making it almost free to drive your BEV🔋🚘

Incumbent German electricity suppliers said in 1993 that renewables could not provide more than 4% of electricity in the long run. In 2025, renewables provided 55.9% of Germany's electricity — 14 times the predicted ceiling.

💣 Criminal networks are a core tool of Kremlin statecraft. At #PSDF2026 in Paris, CSD unpacked how organised crime enables sanctions evasion, illicit trade, sabotage & dependency-building. These actors are force multipliers, blurring crime & national security. #CSDimpact

About three-quarters of the world live in countries that are net importers of fossil fuels. Recent tensions in the Middle East highlight the risks of a fossil energy system, whereas a clean, electrified energy system is far more resilient to disruptions. ember-energy.org/latest-insight…

Ontario uses 600,000 acres to grow corn for ethanol. 🌽 100 acres → powers 71 gas cars ☀️ 100 acres of solar → powers 4,330 EVs Less than 2% of ethanol land could power the same vehicles with clean electricity. Time to grow power, not fuel: shorturl.at/rafeE #onpoli

The Strait of Hormuz carries a fifth of global oil. In 2025, the global EV fleet avoided the equivalent to 70% of Iran's exports through it. Producing more oil doesn't fix oil vulnerability. Electrification does, permanently. 🔗ember-energy.org/latest-insight…

Ukrainian sanctions on Russian energy are also very green. Perhaps this is why Musk finally turned off Russia’s Starlink terminals. Every successful Ukrainian strike makes buying an electric car more attractive!

The EU relies on fossil fuel imports for over half of its energy, leaving it exposed to supply disruptions and price volatilities. Reducing fossil fuel use with homegrown power and electrification can enhance the EU's energy security and resilience ⚡️ ember-energy.org/latest-insight…

When oil people finally understand ...

@dorfman_p If one understands nuclear power plants as weapon grade plutonium producers? Waste electricity probably can be somehow integrated into power market or as hydrogen? It is duel technology.

A Ukrainian defense tech company just broke into Wall Street — in the middle of Russia’s war. Drone AI startup Swarmer went public on NASDAQ at $5 and closed at $31 on day one — a 520% surge, turning a $67M company into a $670M valuation — Kyiv Independent. 1/

Trump tried to stop solar and wind in the US 🇺🇸. He failed spectacularly. 99,2% of new net capacity in America in 2026 is expected to be renewables, with battery capacity. If this happens solar, wind, hydro and other renewables will be equal to natural gas as the biggest source of electricity in the US. Far ahead of coal or any other source. Solar capacity grew 34% last year. Battery storage added 50%. Coal production declined substantially. All renewables combined are now 26% of US electricity. And what state is leading the charge?? Texas - a deep Republican state. So much for Trump. He can speak and act against renewables. He can not uninvent solar panels or wind blades. He can not stop the American people`s desire for clean power. lnkd.in/dhPbmkBi
