Russia’s Rosneft reports a 70 % drop in net income for the first 9 months of 2025, down to 277 billion roubles (~$3.57 billion). The company cited high interest rates, lower oil prices, a stronger rouble, and rising “anti‑terror security” costs as major pressures.
Real reason: Ukrainian sanctions.

Ukrainian forces released videos of the operation against the two oilers Kairo and Virat in the Black Sea which tried to reach the Russian coast.
The message is clear:
If you are a shipowner trying to get Russian oil, expect that you will lose your whole ship.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

Beste @tonfvandijk.bsky.social je vergeet het allerbeste voorbeeld uit de geschiedenis: de geslaagde isolering van NSB'ers voor de oorlog. Ze mochten geen baan als ambtenaar bekleden en werden door de RK kerk geexcommuniceerd. Het fascisme kreeg mede daardoor weinig voet aan de grond.

Trump trekt de aandacht, maar het lot van Oekraïne ligt nu al in Europese handen
Trumps jongste ‘vredesvoorstel’ ondermijnt niet alleen Oekraïne, maar ook de Navo. Maar bondgenoten aarzelen om de gevolgen van het verkruimelen van Amerikaans leiderschap onder ogen te zien.
