👂 More on Trump's Ear
Zelensky says it’s “shameful” for European countries to worry about energy cost increases!
Without a clear alternative in place, the deal that allows Central European nations to buy Russian gas via Ukraine will be allowed to expire at the end of the year.
“This contract will no longer exist, that much is clear,”
“But that’s fine — we will survive, Gazprom will survive.”
Ceasefire in Gaza is a real possibility — is it the “Trump Effect”?
Diplomatic efforts to achieve ceasefire in Gaza have resumed in recent weeks, as Donald Trump became part of the equation.
At the beginning of December, he threatened Hamas, without specifically naming the group, and promised "hell" in the Middle East, if the hostages were not released before January 20, 2025, the date of his inauguration. For the first time in a long time, a ceasefire seems possible.
But perhaps it’s not Trump. Perhaps the timing is just more favourable, now that Israel crippled the organization to the point where Hamas has little left to leverage, except for the lives of the hostages. Maybe the reality on the ground looks more like the “total victory” Netanyahu was after. Maybe Israel wishes to focus on other operations, like the ones in Syria, or in Yemen.
