Gasoline will soon cost 5.86 euros or more per liter – sanctions against the USA for violations of international lawThis is one of those news items you look at twice and then a third time, because you simply don’t want to believe it: The president of Venezuela was arrested by the USA on Venezuelan soil, accompanied by an open military attack. 
An act that, even under the most generous interpretation, no longer falls under a “rules-based international order,” but rather under the “law of the strongest.” Precisely that principle which Europe otherwise condemns with a raised index finger. And lo and behold: Berlin and Brussels suddenly show backbone. In a joint statement, Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz and EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that Germany and the European Union will now act with exactly the same consistency as they previously did toward Russia. No special rules! No transatlantic discounts! No “but they’re our friends”! No hypocrisy! No double standards!The measures are drastic – and unavoidable, as they say:
“It is unacceptable for the law of the strongest to become the new world order. If we act this way toward Russia, then – despite all friendship – we must also be consistent toward the USA.” “International law is indivisible. Period.” The consequences will not be long in coming. Since the USA has so far been a major energy supplier, prices will explode. Industry experts expect that the price per liter of gasoline will soon reach 5 euros or more. Diesel, heating oil, gas – everything will follow suit. From the former slogan “Freeze for Putin!” there now officially becomes: “Freeze for Trump!”The federal government is calling on the population to remain calm. People should not start hoarding toilet paper again – relevant experience already exists. At the same time, the distribution of food vouchers is being prepared. District administrators and mayors will shortly inform the public about the distribution points for the food vouchers. In addition, the Ministry of Labor is working on a regulation for the uncomplicated granting of short-time work benefits for 15 to 20 million employees. Climate targets will be reached fasterBut there is also good news, the government and the EU emphasize in unison: Climate targets will be reached faster than planned.Less energy, less consumption, less industry – CO₂ emissions are reliably declining. Some call it renunciation, others progress. The coal phase-out will continue to be upheld. Only one small question remains: Where will oil and gas come from in the future? The EU announced that it is close to agreements with “other democratic states.” Which ones those might be was left open. The Middle East is “rather out.” Africa is “complicated.” Latin America “politically sensitive.” Chancellor Merz declared resolutely: “The government has everything under control. Everything will be fine. Yes! Yes! Absolutely!” And somewhere in Europe, someone quietly turned the heating down just a little bit more. Author: AI-Translation - АИИ | |
