#dystopie über politische Machtverhältnisse, die Weltverbesserung ggf. mit Gewalt verhindern.
#Norwegen stellt aus #Klimaschutz-Gründen die Erdöl- und Erdgas-Förderung ein. In Kooperation mit der #EU erpresst Russland die Wiederaufnahme der Förderung.

"Bloody hell. Russian navy just reserved missile firings area for 4-6 April up to 18000m in intl waters real close to Sweden. How provocative you can go?"

Not sure if I want to trust something from zerohedge.

That said this looks like standard cold war behavior and we should probably expect to see more.

This isn't a one-sided deal tho, with NATO doing more aggressive maneuvers in eastern Europe.

One ray of hope is that for instance the Bundeswehr can barely keep up with the maneuvers, with a majority of machinery in disrepair.

The war machinery is overpriced and –luckily– underperforming.

Yes yes 😉 My reaction was more linked to the fact that this fit perfectly into the plot of the Norwegian series I recently watched.
