EIA data show that the United States, as of Oct. 14, has 25.4 days of supply—down from 34.2 days of supply four weeks prior. National Economic Council Director Brian Deese, a top adviser to President Joe Biden, told Bloomberg News last week that current diesel levels are “unacceptably” low and that “all options are on the table” to increase supplies. The diesel crunch comes just over two weeks before the November 2022 midterm elections and will likely drive up prices even more. Diesel is the fuel used by freight trains and commonly used by long-haul truckers to transport goods and food. Prices, meanwhile, remain relatively elevated, according to AAA data. The average price for a gallon of diesel stands at around $5.33 nationwide, or up nearly $2 since the same time in 2021, the data shows. Wholesale diesel prices at the New York spot market spiked last week to more than $200 per barrel. It comes as the Biden administration recently announced it would release another 15 million barrels of oil from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve, part of the 180 million Biden authorized in March, that Republicans say is a bid to keep Democrats politically afloat ahead of the midterms. But Biden and his allies say that it’s not a political tactic, and the administration says it will refill the reserve when prices drop to $67–$72 per barrel. https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-on-his-fitness-for-office-i-could-drop-dead-tomorrow Biden On His Fitness For Office: ‘I Could Drop Dead Tomorrow’ President Joe Biden (D) responded to questions about his age and fitness for office during an interview that aired Sunday morning by saying that he could “drop dead tomorrow.” Biden made the remarks during an MSNBC interview with Jonathan Capehart when he was asked what he would say to convince voters to stick with him if he were to run again in 2024. https://twitter.com/i/status/1584212983672340480 - Play Video https://www.dailyfetched.com/eu-to-gift-18-billion-to-ukraine-next-year-rest-will-come-from-u-s/ EU to Gift $18 Billion to Ukraine Next Year, the Rest Will Come From U.S European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen spoke after the 27 national EU leaders discussed supporting Ukraine during the second day of their summit in Brussels on Friday. She said the EU has so far sent $19 billion to Ukraine this year. Von der Leyen said the EU would finance 1.5 billion euros per month, with the rest expected to come from the United States. During a video link, Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the EU leaders saying Russian missiles and Iranian drones have damaged a third of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. Von der Leyen said the EU was looking to help Ukraine re-establish water, power and electricity supplies. Zelensky asked the EU for air and missile defence systems and called for “new powerful” sanctions on Russia and Iran for supplying drones in Moscow’s war. Poland and the three Baltic states proposed banning diamond imports from Russia and phasing out the steel trade. Meanwhile, Hungary opposed sanctions against Russia, while Germany and France have said current measures already go far. Zelensky appealed for more aid pledges to be made at an international conference in Berlin next Tuesday. European Council President Charles Michel, the summit’s chairman, said the EU was looking at using Russian assets frozen under sanctions. Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas said that seizing assets amounted to some 300 billion euros, while Berlin and others have warned it might be illegal. Kallas also sided with Lithuania for a possible international tribunal to judge possible war crimes committed in Ukraine. https://www.foxnews.com/us/ex-minneapolis-police-officer-kueng-pleads-guilty-george-floyd-killing Ex-Minneapolis police officer Kueng pleads guilty in George Floyd killing A former Minneapolis police officer pleaded guilty on Monday to aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter in the May 2020 killing of George Floyd. Alexander Kueng’s guilty plea will allow one count of aiding and abetting second-degree murder to be dismissed. Kueng had helped to restrain Floyd, who was handcuffed and knelt on his back during the May 25, 2020, killing that was recorded on video. He is the second officer to plead guilty to the state charge. Thomas Lane earlier pleaded guilty to the same count. Their former colleague, Tou Thao, is still scheduled to face trial this week. All three have already been convicted on federal counts of willfully violating the civil rights of Floyd. Lane was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in the federal case. Kueng was sentenced to three years and Thao was sentenced to 3 1/2 years. Officer Derek Chauvin has already been convicted of state murder and manslaughter charges in Floyd’s killing last year and is currently serving 22 1/2 years in the state case. Chauvin had pinned Floyd to the ground with a knee on Floyd’s neck as he repeatedly said he couldn’t breathe. State sentencing guidelines for a person with no criminal record, like Kueng, call for a range from about 3 1/2 years to four years and nine months in prison for second-degree unintentional manslaughter. The presumptive sentence is four years. If Kueng had been convicted of aiding and abetting second-degree murder, he would have faced a presumptive 12 1/2 years in prison. https://dailycaller.com/2022/10/23/msnbc-host-claims-minority-republican-candidates-not-voices-of-color/ Now this!

Ethan Crumbley, 16, is accused of opening fire at Oxford High School outside Detroit on Nov. 30 with a handgun that his father purchased for him as a Christmas gift days before the massacre. Two boys, aged 17 and 16, and two girls, aged 17 and 14, were killed while six other students and a teacher were wounded. Crumbley, who was a 15-year-old at the time of the shooting, pleaded guilty in Oakland County Circuit Court to a total of 24 charges, including one count of terrorism causing death and four counts of first-degree murder. He was also charged with seven counts of assault with intent to murder and 12 counts of possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony. He faces life without parole when he is sentenced. A tentative sentencing hearing is scheduled for Feb. 9, 2023. Crumbley’s lawyers on Monday withdrew an insanity defense notice that they had previously filed with the court. Crumbley’s parents, James and Jennifer Crumbley, also face involuntary manslaughter charges connected to the shooting. In that case, Rochester District Court Judge Julie Nicholson said evidence showed they had purchased a gun for their son despite signs that he was a “troubled young man.” The case appears to be the first in the United States in which the parents of a teenage school shooter have been charged with crimes attributed to their child. They have pleaded not guilty. Four days before the shooting, Ethan Crumbley accompanied his father to a gun shop, where James Crumbley bought a 9mm handgun, prosecutors said.

Showcasing incredible takedown defense combined with a punishing style on the feet, Dariush never slowed down over all rounds as he continued to hammer Gamrot with strikes. Late in the third round, Dariush clubbed Gamrot with a huge overhand left that helped him secure the victory as he notched his eighth victory in a row in arguably the toughest division in the sport. The defining strike came with just over a minute remaining as Dariush leveled Gamrot with a huge overhand left. Gamrot dropped to the ground before diving for another takedown to stave off a potential finish. Still, the knockdown was the biggest strike in the fight as Dariush put on another stellar showcase while competing against a less established product in Gamrot. With the win, Dariush moves that much closer to title contention. But one of the best parts for me came in Dariush’s post fight interview. Beneil Dariush Octagon Interview | UFC 280- Play 0:00-1:10 The reason I want to praise Dariush here, is because he’s praising Jesus Christ in an area of the world where Islam is the dominant religion currently. Eventually it won’t be, but for the time being, this was a bold statement in the United Emirates.

Eventually it won’t be, but for the time being, this was a bold statement in the United Emirates.

Xavier Vidal-Folch reflexiona sobre las palabras de Von der Leyen y la excepción ibérica.

Die Staats- und Regierungschefs der EU kommen zum Gipfeltreffen in Brüssel zusammen. Dabei diskutieren sie einen Vorschlag von Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen, die Gas auf europäischer Ebene kaufen will. Welche Vor- und Nachteile das mit sich bringt, erklärt ZEIT ONLINE Wirtschaftsredakteur Zacharias Zacharakis. Außerdem: Der belgische Justizminister Vincent Van Quickenborne hat der Mafia und ihren Drogengeschäften den Kampf angesagt. Die wehrt sich und zeigt, dass sie keine Angst hat, ein Regierungsmitglied zu bedrohen. Was genau passiert ist und wie die Ermittlungen verlaufen, weiß Markus Sehl, Belgienkorrespondent für die ZEIT. Und: Wie Gruppenarbeit funktionieren kann.

De tectonische platen van de wereldpolitiek verschuiven dramatisch. Een wel heel sterk teken daarvan is dat voor het eerst sinds 1945 Europa 'een telefoonnummer' heeft. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger belichten de plotselinge opmars van de Europese Unie als geopolitiek brandpunt - in plaats van de verwachte marginalisering.De primeur van de Europese Politieke Gemeenschap - een idee van Emmanuel Macron dat in mei van dit jaar nog een beetje weggelachen werd - vond plaats in Praag. Het was meteen een groot succes en leidde tot een lange reeks belangrijke initiatieven. Hier kwam voor crisisregio de Kaukasus een vredesproces op gang. En de aankondiging van de volgende sessie was een openlijk affront aan Vladimir Poetin: de arme, kleine en zo bedreigde EU-kandidaat Moldavië is de volgende gastheer.In 1973 klaagde de Amerikaanse minister van Buitenlandse Zaken Henry Kissinger dat als hij de mening van Europa wilde hebben hij geen nummer had dat hij kon bellen. In deze aflevering hoor je hem het ware verhaal achter die fameuze anekdote vertellen. Met de komst van Joe Biden is dit tijdperk opeens voorbij.Amerika heeft wél een EU-nummer. Biden belt bijna dagelijks. Commissiepresident Ursula von der Leyen is zijn feitelijke partner en klimaatgezant John Kerry heeft eenzelfde intensieve relatie met vicepresident Frans Timmermans. Von der Leyen vult het vacuüm dat Washington DC zo vreesde met het vertrek van Angela Merkel en nu ook Mario Draghi en de zwakke posities van Olaf Scholz en Raadspresident Charles Michel.Europa is in enkele maanden een cruciale geopolitieke factor geworden. Dat Finland en Zweden tot de NAVO toetreden is daarbij voor de VS van grootst mogelijke betekenis. De Noordse en Arctische regio zijn voor Canada en Amerika immers hun grens met Rusland.Bovendien kan alleen de EU het soort krachtige sancties doorvoeren wat lidstaten op zichzelf aangewezen niet kunnen. Daarmee is de Unie een zwaargewicht van 450 miljoen inwoners in de nieuwe antiautoritaire alliantie met de VS, Canada, het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Australië, Nieuw-Zeeland, Japan en Zuid-Korea. En Von der Leyen levert, iets wat Biden zeer hoog aanslaat.PG tipt twee van haar 'rechterhanden', die voor de EU essentiële posten bekleden voor de impact van die nieuwe westerse alliantie. Dat zijn de Franse eurocommissaris Thierry Breton, die onder meer defensie, ruimtetechnologie, IT, AI en de chips act doet en de Finse Jutta Urpilainen. Zij gaat over de grote internationale instituties als IMF en Wereldbank waarin de EU een hoofdrol speelt, de grote investeringen in landen van de derde wereld, het 'Marshall plan voor Afrika' en de Europese tegenzet voor de de Nieuwe Zijderoute van Xi Jinping. Dat laatste betekent dat zij een lange-termijnfonds van zo'n €300 miljard stuurt en beheert.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door de Europese Unie en met donaties van luisteraars via Vriend van de Show.Belangstelling voor sponsoring of adverteren?

Die president van die Europese Kommissie, Ursula von der Leyen, sê hulle is gereed om 'n beperking te oorweeg op die prys van gas wat vir die opwekking van elektrisiteit gebruik word. Nasies in die Europese Unie sukkel om kop bo water te hou met rekordhoë energiepryse en die moontlikheid van tekorte. Dit word veroorsaak deur Rusland wat die invoer van gas drasties verminder het weens sanksies teen hom ná sy inval in Oekraïne. Von der Leyen sê Russiese gasvoorrade het afgeneem van 40 persent tot die huidige 7,5 persent van pyplyngas:

El presidente del Banco Mundial, David Malpass, ve "probable" un escenario de recesión en Europa. La CE quiere imponer un tope de precios al petróleo ruso en el nuevo paquete de sanciones anunciado por la presidenta Von der Leyen. En España, el Ministerio de Hacienda plantea a los sindicatos de la función pública subir los salarios un 1,5% adicional en 2022. La vicepresidenta primera, Nadia Calviño, no descarta ahora rebajas fiscales selectivas o generalizadas.

Úrsula Von der Leyen habla de sabotaje y promete la respuesta más dura posible a los responsables de las dos explosiones en los gasoductos Nordstream Uno y Dos. Los gobiernos de Suecia y Finlandia también apuntan a que se trata de un acto intencionado. No hay acusaciones directas, pero todas las hipótesis apuntan a Moscú, cuando el Kremlin anuncia la victoria del sí en los referéndums de las regiones ucranianas ocupadas. El otro gran asunto internacional paso por Cuba. El huracán Ian ha dañado la red eléctrica y mantiene a toda la isla sin luz.

Viva Italia. Giorgia Meloni becomes Italy's first female Prime Minister, pledging to put Italy First. God, Family and Country. Predictably, globalist elites panic and pledge to punish the good people of Italy. EU Commissar Ursula von der Leyen becomes unhinged. Sampling some "neo-fascist" propaganda. WEF Globalism Cracking? Spread the word. Meanwhile, a fascinating discourse on bureaucratic ingratitude. Lawless, unelected bureaucrats running wild in America. Calling the shots. No accountability, as they target the taxpayers who fund their very salaries. Host describes how it all happens and grows and evolves. Extraordinarily Undemocratic. Notes on the "armed bureaucrats" power fantasies of the Left. Republicans must take on the out of control Administrative State, pronto, while they still can.

Mañana 23 de septiembre comienza el otoño en el hemisferio norte. En circunstancias normales esto no pasa de ser un equinoccio más que se repite todos los años a finales de septiembre. Pero este no es un año normal en Europa. Conforme vayan acortándose los días y haciéndose más fríos el continente tendrá que depender de la energía eléctrica y el gas para iluminarse, calentarse y mantener la economía en funcionamiento. Los precios de la energía han subido en todo el mundo, pero en ningún lugar más que en Europa, lo que ha obligado a los Gobiernos europeos a improvisar sobre la marcha medidas de urgencia que amortigüen los rigores de la estación fría. El mayor problema que enfrentan los europeos es el aumento de los precios del gas natural, que está causando estragos en todo el continente, ha impulsado la inflación hacia arriba, está paralizando la industria y haciendo que los consumidores se estremezcan cuando les llegan a casa los recibos del gas y de la luz. En estos momentos los precios del gas natural en Europa son ahora unas diez veces más altos que el promedio durante la última década y también unas diez veces más altos que en Estados Unidos. El consumo de gas se dispara en otoño e invierno a causa de las calefacciones y de un mayor consumo de electricidad. Esa demanda extra incrementará aún más los precios y en algunos países se teme incluso que no haya suficiente gas y tengan que decretarse racionamientos. El problema de la carestía del gas se debe a su escasez. La demanda mundial ya era alta, pero lo que ha llevado los precios a la estratosfera ha sido la guerra de Ucrania. Una parte considerable del gas que se consumía en Europa provenía de Rusia a través de gasoductos. Esos gasoductos están hoy cerrados u operando a una pequeña fracción de su capacidad. Rusia no es el único productor de gas natural del mundo, aunque si uno de los principales. Los países europeos han tenido que realizar un esprint durante los últimos meses para asegurarse cargamentos de proveedores alternativos como Noruega, Estados Unidos o Qatar. Eso ha hecho subir el precio en el mercado internacional, pero no quedaba otra opción en tanto que la Unión Europea ha indicado a sus miembros que deben llenar al máximo sus reservas de gas de cara al invierno. A eso mismo se han dedicado todos los países de la Unión durante el verano, pero a un precio muy superior del habitual. Bruselas había fijado un objetivo del 80% antes del 1 de noviembre. Ese objetivo ya ha sido superado. A principios de esta semana los depósitos europeos se encontraban al 86%, lo que ha llevado a Ursula von der Leyen, presidenta de la Comisión Europea, a pedir a los Estados miembros que sigan haciendo acopio de gas hasta alcanzar el 95% de aquí a principios de noviembre. Para entonces el frío y la oscuridad ya se habrán instalado sobre Europa. Todo queda pendiente ahora de la meteorología. Si el invierno es suave será todo mucho más fácil, pero si es riguroso habrá que recurrir a esas reservas y a otras medidas de urgencia como reabrir centrales de carbón y reducir (de grado o por la fuerza) el consumo energético.

Christiane is at the United Nations, where world leaders are gathering for their first in-person general assembly in three years – just as Russia's President Vladimir Putin decided to call up 300,000 reservists to fight in Ukraine. It's a massive escalation amid his troops' recent setbacks on the battlefield and comes just after officials in several occupied regions of Ukraine said they will hold referendums on formally joining Russia this week. It adds to a perfect storm of global crises, yet organizations like the UN seem largely incapable of working as a mechanism for peace and stability. Spain is a key NATO member and announced a boost in military spending when it hosted NATO's summit in Madrid this summer. Its prime minister Pedro Sanchez joins Christiane in New York.  Also on today's show: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen; Jennifer Berkshire, co-author of A Wolf at the Schoolhouse Door.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

Diffusées dans le monde entier comme son couronnement en 1953, les funérailles de la reine Elizabeth II, décédée jeudi 8 septembre, se sont déroulées durant toute la journée de ce lundi en suivant un programme imaginé par la souveraine elle-même et calibré au millimètre. Sous les yeux de milliards de téléspectateurs, le cercueil de la reine a été conduit de Westminster Hall à l'abbaye éponyme où les obsèques ont débuté à 11 heures (midi en France). A l'intérieur, les Windsor au grand complet, des familles royales européennes et des chefs d'État, dignitaires et ambassadeurs. 2000 invités parmi lesquels se trouvaient la leader écossaise Nicola Sturgeon et des anciens Premiers ministres Boris Johnson, David Cameron, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown et Theresa May. Etaient également présents les leaders du Commonwealth mais aussi Joe Biden, Emmanuel Macron, le vice-président chinois Wang Qishan, la présidente de la Commission européenne, Ursula von der Leyen, le président turc Recep Tayyip Erdoğan ou le président brésilien, Jair Bolsonaro. Mais il y avait également un grand absent : Vladimir Poutine et les autorités russes qui n'ont pas été invités à Londres, invasion de l'Ukraine oblige. Moscou a dénoncé une décision « profondément immorale » et même « blasphématoire ». A l'extérieur, un million de personnes étaient attendues pour suivre ces obsèques conçues pour rester dans l'histoire. Sur des kilomètres, le public s'était massé, certains depuis 48 heures pour suivre la procession funéraire jusqu'à la chapelle Saint-Georges du domaine de Windsor, là où ont eu lieu les funérailles du prince Philip. Un pays entier à l'arrêt pour faire ses adieux à la dernière reine planétaire, au règne unique par sa durée, et qui ne voulait rien manquer de cette nouvelle page de l'histoire royale britannique va se poursuivre désormais avec Charles III. Un monarque qui s'est de longue date montré sensible à la cause environnementale mais dont la popularité reste à la traîne comparée à celle de sa défunte mère, mais aussi de son dauphin, William, prince de Galles.

Engagée le 6 septembre dernier, la contre-offensive des forces ukrainiennes a permis à Kiev de reprendre le contrôle de près de 4.000 kilomètres carrés tombés aux mains de l'armée russe. Ce revers militaire fragilise Vladimir Poutine sur le plan intérieur, avec des critiques de plus en plus virulentes de la part non seulement de pacifistes, mais surtout de l'extrême droite ultra-nationaliste. Le président russe a rencontré son homologue chinois pour trouver des appuis dans ce conflit militaire, mais aussi géopolitique et idéologique, comme en témoignent le soutien américain à l'Ukraine et le discours engagé d'Ursula von der Leyen devant le Parlement européen réuni ce mardi à Strasbourg.

POUTINE- XI JINPING : LA FIN DE L'UNION SACRÉE ? – 16/09/22 EXPERTS GÉNÉRAL JEAN-PAUL PALOMÉROS Ancien chef d'état-major / Ancien commandant suprême de la transformation de l'OTAN VALÉRIE NIQUET Responsable du pôle Asie à la Fondation pour la Recherche Stratégique - Auteure de « Taïwan face à la Chine » ELSA VIDAL Rédactrice en chef de la rédaction en langue russe – RFI FRÉDÉRIC ENCEL Docteur en géopolitique Maître de conférences à Sciences Po Paris et Paris School of Business - Auteur de « Les voies de la puissance » Bousculé sur le front militaire en Ukraine, sanctionné par les Occidentaux, le président russe Vladimir Poutine a marqué, une nouvelle fois, son virage vers l'Orient en retrouvant ce jeudi son homologue chinois Xi Jinping, en marge d'un sommet de l'Organisation de coopération de Shanghai (OCS), organisé en Ouzbékistan. Une première rencontre depuis l'invasion de l'Ukraine par la Russie au cours de laquelle les deux dirigeants ont multiplié les déclarations de coopération, de convergence de vues et d'intérêt envers le monde non-occidental. Ainsi Xi Jinping a assuré que son pays était prêt à assumer son rôle de « grande puissance » dans le cadre d'une coopération renforcée avec la Russie, tandis que Vladimir Poutine a dénoncé les tentatives occidentales « laides et inacceptables » de « créer un monde unipolaire ». La dernière rencontre entre les hommes date de février dernier, lorsque Vladimir Poutine s'était rendu à la cérémonie d'ouverture des Jeux Olympiques à Pékin. Le président russe et son homologue chinois avaient alors proclamé leur amitié « sans limite ». Ils se sont depuis parlé au téléphone, à propos de la guerre en Ukraine notamment, et ont fait mener par deux fois des exercices militaires conjoints, en mai et en septembre. Selon Pékin, le but étant d'« approfondir la coopération » entre les deux armées. Alors cette rencontre entre Vladimir Poutine et Xi Jinping est-elle le signe d'un nouveau rapprochement entre la Chine et la Russie ? Si elle a donné lieu à de vigoureuses déclarations d'amitié, dans les faits le soutien chinois à son allié russe ne se matérialise encore guère : pas de fourniture d'armes, pas d'exportations de composants industriels, notamment les cruciaux semi-conducteurs, couverts par les sanctions de l'Occident. Reste le côté hautement symbolique qui permet à Vladimir Poutine de montrer que la Russie n'est pas isolée sur la scène internationale dans le contexte de la guerre en Ukraine. Et ce alors que des critiques se font de plus en plus entendre dans le pays après le succès ces derniers jours des forces ukrainiennes dans le Nord-Est, mais aussi en Europe. Jeudi, la présidente de la Commission européenne a plaidé en faveur d'une comparution du président russe Vladimir Poutine devant la justice internationale pour les crimes de guerre commis en Ukraine. « Il faut que Poutine perde cette guerre et réponde de ses actes », a déclaré Ursula von der Leyen à la chaîne de télévision du quotidien allemand Bild. En Ukraine, où la contre-attaque des troupes ukrainiennes se poursuit, Kiev a indiqué ce vendredi avoir découvert près de 450 tombes près d'Izioum, ville de la région de Kharkiv, récemment reprise aux forces russes. L'ONU a dit vouloir envoyer une équipe sur place pour enquêter. Le président turc Erdogan a lui appelé à mettre fin à la guerre en Ukraine « au plus vite » en marge du sommet de l'OCS. Son homologue indien a de son côté estimé que « le temps n'est pas à la guerre ».

Los últimos éxitos militares ucranianos en el terreno, ampliamente comentados y difundidos por los medios, son sin duda fruto de las propias fuerzas ucranianas, pero sin olvidar la importante ayuda occidental. En este sentido presidenta de la Comisión Europea, Úrsula von der Leyen, afirmó este jueves en Kiev que la Unión Europea apoyará a Ucrania el tiempo que sea necesario.

Ursula von der Leyen a Kyiv con Volodimir Zelensky, l'incontro tra Vladimir Putin e Xi Jinping in Uzbekistan, la premier svedese di centrosinistra Andersson ammette la sconfitta alle elezioni e si dimette e l'Alta Corte europea condanna la Francia per il rifiuto di reintegrare le famiglie dell'Isis

Det var i strid med menneskerettighederne, at Frankrig afviste at tage imod børn med fransk statsborgerskab og deres mødre, der ønsker at forlade lejrene i Syrien. Det fastslog Den Europæiske Menneskeretsdomstol i en principiel afgørelse onsdag. Den dom havde en del andre lande, herunder Danmark, set frem til med spænding. Spørgsmålet er, om dommen får indflydelse på fremtiden for de børn og mødre, der stadig befinder sig i al Roj-lejren. Ulrik Dahlin har set på dommen. Onsdag afleverede den tyske EU-kommissionsformand, Ursula von der Leyen, en af sit livs taler på et meget afgørende sted i unionens historie. Krisen buldrer på flere fronter. Medlemslandene lancerer enorme støttepakker for at hjælpe forbrugere og virksomheder igennem energikrise, inflation og krig. Men hun talte også til et Europa, der måske har fået øjnene op for, at vi ikke kommer igennem dette alene. Tore Keller udlægger den vigtige tale.  Og så er der selvfølgelig også en optur ved chefredaktør Rune Lykkeberg. Denne gang over, at krigslykken tilsyneladende er vendt i Ukraine. Det skal vi glæde os over. Også selv om vi ikke ved, hvordan Putin vil reagere på udsigterne til et nederlag.

Carlos Alsina reflexiona en su monólogo de 'Más de uno' sobre cómo ha sido capaz la presidenta de la Comisión Europea, Ursula von der Leyen, de hacer que el PP y el PSOE se pongan de acuerdo respecto al impuesto a las eléctricas.

Los últimos éxitos militares ucranianos en el terreno, ampliamente comentados y difundidos por los medios, son sin duda fruto de las propias fuerzas ucranianas, pero sin olvidar la importante ayuda occidental. En este sentido presidenta de la Comisión Europea, Úrsula von der Leyen, afirmó este jueves en Kiev que la Unión Europea apoyará a Ucrania el tiempo que sea necesario. ENTREVISTA Félix Arteaga, investigador principal del Real Instituto Elcano al micrófono de Radio Francia Internacional destaca la importancia de la ayuda occidental. "El apoyo militar es determinante, pero para esos gobiernos y esas poblaciones, que apoyan militar y económicamente a Ucrania, necesitan ofrecer a su población resultados como esta ofensiva exitosa, eso aumenta el crédito del apoyo, Las sociedades occidentales ya están pagando un precio económico por la guerra y si no se producen este tipo de éxitos militares, expectativas de que 'se puede parar a Rusia', se puede acabar ese crédito político y social y acabarse de paso esa ayuda militar que es decisiva pero también económicamente gravosa." Sin este tipo de éxitos podría acabarse la ayuda militar "Hoy en día las guerras no se pierden en el campo de batalla, sino en la percepción de un relato perdedor o ganador. En llevar a quienes te apoyan o defiendes, a la percepción de que vas a tener éxito. Estas pequeñas contraofensivas, con más o menos éxito como estas, llevan, por una parte, a la población rusa a dudar. “Esto que era un simple paseo militar ¿puede transformarse en una guerra con movilización general?” Y, por el contrario, anima a la población propia: “Merece la pena el esfuerzo económico y humano que estamos haciendo defendiéndonos ante Rusia” Y también permite a los aliados europeos y norteamericanos seguir manteniendo el respaldo. Porque sin estos logros, todo el apoyo emocional, político y social que se le ha dado al gobierno de Ucrania, se podría volver en su contra. Y las poblaciones occidentales podrían comenzar a presionen a sus gobiernos para buscar un acuerdo que detenga la guerra o el coste que sufren asociado a ella."

Marta García Aller reflexiona sobre el poder que tiene Ursula Von der Leyen para hacer que el PP y el PSOE se pongan de acuerdo sobre el impuesto a las empresas energéticas.

ÉNERGIE : QUI SERONT LES SACRIFIÉS DE L'HIVER ? – 15/09/22 EMMANUELLE WARGON Présidente de la Commission de régulation de l'énergie Hier en conférence presse, la Première ministre a annoncé les pistes du gouvernement pour faire face à la crise de l'énergie. Parmi les mesures proposées, on compte la mise en place d'un bouclier tarifaire limitant la hausse des prix à 15% en 2023 ainsi que des chèques énergie exceptionnels pour 12 millions de foyers modestes. Quelques heures avant, c'est la présidente de la Commission européenne, Ursula von der Leyen, qui a présenté des mesures d'urgence pour répondre à la crise énergétique, lors de son discours sur l'état de l'Union. Elle a proposé notamment un plafonnement des super-profits, qui rapporterait 140 milliards d'euros aux Etats de l'UE. A ce jour, si la France a rempli à 94% ses stocks de gaz pour l'hiver, le gestionnaire du réseau de transport d'électricité RTE a appelé les Français, ce mercredi 14 septembre, à limiter leur consommation en période tendue et a évoqué des « coupures » possibles cet hiver, mais « maîtrisables ». Caroline Roux reviendra avec Emmanuelle Wargon sur les dernières annonces du gouvernement.

EUROPE : PEUT-ON ÉVITER LA RÉCESSION ? – 14/09/22 ALAIN MINC Économiste, essayiste Ce mercredi à 15h30, la première ministre Elisabeth Borne tiendra une conférence de presse « sur la situation énergétique » de l'Hexagone. La Première ministre devrait profiter de cette occasion pour revenir sur le bouclier tarifaire, qui atténue la note pour les foyers comme pour les entreprises. Elle devrait aussi annoncer une hausse des tarifs, l'an prochain, alors que ceux-ci sont gelés depuis de longs mois. Une décision justifiée par l'argument budgétaire, brandi lundi par le chef de Bercy : « Il y aura quand même, au 1er janvier 2023, une hausse contenue des prix du gaz et de l'électricité », car il « serait irresponsable de faire peser » l'explosion des factures uniquement sur l'État De son côté, la présidente de la Commission européenne Ursula von der Leyen a présenté ce mercredi matin des mesures d'urgence pour répondre à la crise énergétique, lors de son discours sur l'état de l'Union. Elle a proposé notamment un plafonnement des super-profits, qui rapporterait 140 milliards d'euros aux Etats de l'UE, ainsi qu'une réforme en profondeur du marché de l'électricité ou la création d'une banque publique dédiée à l'hydrogène capable d'investir 3 milliards d'euros. Caroline Roux reviendra sur ces deux prises de parole ainsi que sur la situation préoccupante de l'Allemagne qui devrait entrer récession cet hiver, en raison du lourd impact de la crise de l'énergie avec Alain Minc.

Seit einigen Wochen sinken die Großhandelspreise für Gas deutlich und liegen heute bereits etwa 40 Prozent unter dem Höchstpreis, der vor knapp drei Wochen erreicht wurde – und das obwohl aktuell kein Gas durch Nordstream 1 fließt. Wie kann das sein? Und werden Verbraucherinnen und Verbraucher von der Entwicklung profitieren? Diese Fragen beantwortet Jan Guldner, Wirtschaftsredakteur bei ZEIT ONLINE. Außerdem in der Nachmittagsausgabe des Was Jetzt?-Podcasts: EU-Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen hat in ihrer Rede zur Lage der Europäischen Union der Ukraine weitere Unterstützung zugesagt. Zur Entlastung der europäischen Verbraucherinnen und Verbraucher hat die Kommissionschefin außerdem vorgeschlagen, übermäßige Gewinne von Energiefirmen abzuschöpfen und umzuverteilen.
