Podcasts about Nord Stream

Venäjän Ukrainaa vastaan käymä hyökkäyssota heijastuu myös Itämerelle, josta on tullut yksi Venäjän ja lännen vastakkainasettelun näyttämöistä. Jännitteitä nostavat Venäjän varjolaivasto ja hybridioperaatioiden uhat. Epämääräiset tankkerit herättävät huolta ympäristökatastrofin vaarasta, mutta Itämeren antavaltioiden on yhä vaikea puuttua tankkeriliikenteeseen kansainvälisillä vesillä. Yksi mysteereistä on ollut meren pohjassa kulkevien Nord Stream -kaasuputkien räjäytys syksyllä 2022. Heinäkuun alussa Saksan syyttäjät nostivat tapauksesta sotarikossyytteen Italiassa pidätettyä ukrainalaismiestä vastaan. Tapaus aiheuttaa jännitteitä Ukrainan ja Saksan suhteisiin, sillä Saksan viranomaiset katsovat sen kohdistuneen Saksalle kriittisen tärkeään infrastruktuuriin. Venäjän johto sen sijaan yhä haaveilee kaasuputkien palauttamisesta käyttöön. Ohjelman ovat toimittaneet Teemu Juhola, Erja Tuomaala ja Heikki Heiskanen. Äänitarkkailijana on Marko Vierikko.

Als Wladimir Putin 2022 die Ukraine angreift, wird deutlich: Die deutsche Energieversorgung ist von einem Kriegsverbrecher abhängig. Wie konnte es so weit kommen? Am Rande der Hamburg Sustainability Conference (HSC) legt der langjährige wirtschaftspolitische Berater von Altkanzlerin Angela Merkel seine Sicht der Dinge dar: "Wir haben uns um die Probleme gekümmert, die auf dem Tisch lagen", sagt Lars-Hendrik Röller im Interview. "Es gab damals genug zu tun, was das Volk bewegt hat." Russische Erdgaslieferungen gehörten ihm zufolge nicht dazu. "Die Wirtschaft, nicht die Bundesregierung hat Gasverträge abgeschlossen", sagt er. "Das war die Strategie. Eine Mehrheit der Bevölkerung hat das unterstützt." Auch der schwache Ausbau der Erneuerbaren war demzufolge nicht zu ändern, wie er sagt. "Das kann man kritisieren, aber das hat die Bundesregierung versucht." Jetzt aber wird es Zeit, für mehr Unabhängigkeit in Erneuerbare zu investieren. Einzige Voraussetzung: Es muss wirtschaftlich sein. Gast: Lars-Hendrik Röller. Der Ökonom war von 2011 bis 2021 wirtschaftspolitischer Berater von Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel und Leiter der Wirtschafts- und Finanzabteilung im Bundeskanzleramt. Er ist Gründer und Chairman von Berlin Global Dialogue und Chairman der Green Guarantee Group.

Football can be geopolitics by other means. Financial Times Journalist Simon Kuper has covered every World Cup since 1990. This week, he joins Sir Richard Dearlove and guest co-host Baroness Ayesha Hazarika to unpack how football and geopolitics collide.  Kuper explains why he thinks FIFA president Gianni Infantino runs the organization like an autocrat, how U.S. President Donald Trump's red card intervention echoes historical precedents set by Mussolini and Brazil's military government, and why hosting a World Cup brings prestige but rarely economic benefit. The conversation also covers the KGB's use of Soviet football clubs for cover during the Cold War, football's role in the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa, why China's investment in football hasn't paid off, and how France's multicultural national team has become a flashpoint in its domestic politics. Plus, in Brief: Russian strikes on Ukraine ahead of the NATO summit, German prosecutors' Nord Stream allegations against Ukraine, deepening Russia-China military cooperation, and reports of Trump pushing for a "master list" of intelligence assets.

This week's show features stories from France 24, NHK World Radio Japan, and Radio Havana Cuba. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr260710.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- Some press reviews on the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, from both American and European sources. One of the side effects of the heat waves that are sweeping through Europe is the melting of the Alpine glaciers that are essential for drinking water, farming, and hydroelectric power plants. River beds in much of France have gone completely dry and efforts are being made to preserve the fish. Press reviews on a United Nations report that since the so-called ceasefire in Gaza, an average of one young Palestinian has been killed every day by Israeli forces. The US launched a major attack on Iran on Wednesday and Thursday, taking out civilian infrastructure, air defense systems and nearly hitting a nuclear power plant. Trump railed again that Greenland should belong to the US despite the people living there being strongly opposed to the idea. From JAPAN- Indian President Modi is visiting Australia to deepen ties on economics, security, and defense- including exports of uranium to India. Hamas says it has dissolved its government in Gaza. Israeli settlement expansion in the West Bank is expanding, with 103 new settlements approved by the Israeli government, with another 100 coming soon- NHK spoke with settlers and with the Palestinians being moved out. From CUBA- The US government was unsuccessful at blocking a debate at the UN on the effect its economic and energy blockades against Cuba- Cuba said there is no evidence that it is planning an attack on the US. Iran says it fired missiles on a Qatari and Saudi ships in the strait of Hormuz because they were avoiding the Iranian controlled waters. Belgium is preparing to recognize the state of Palestine, joining 157 other countries that already consider it a sovereign state.

Deutschland zahlt weiter an die Ukraine – trotz Nord-StreamEin Standpunkt von Uwe Froschauer.Deutschland gehört seit Beginn des Ukraine-Krieges zu den größten Unterstützern Kiews. Die Bundesregierung hat Waffen geliefert, Milliardenhilfen bereitgestellt und weitere umfangreiche Finanzzusagen angekündigt. Inzwischen hat sich die rechtliche Bewertung des Nord-Stream-Pipeline-Anschlags verändert: Die Bundesanwaltschaft erhebt Anklage gegen einen ukrainischen Staatsangehörigen wegen seiner mutmaßlichen Beteiligung an der Sprengung der Nord-Stream-Pipelines – einem Anschlag auf die kritische Energieinfrastruktur Deutschlands.Vor diesem Hintergrund stellt sich eine politische Frage, die bislang kaum öffentlich diskutiert wird: Nach welchen Maßstäben entscheidet die Bundesregierung über Solidarität, Verantwortung und den Einsatz deutscher Steuergelder?Nach Angaben der Bundesregierung und verschiedener Medienberichte wird Deutschland seine Unterstützung für die Ukraine auch in den kommenden Jahren auf hohem Niveau fortsetzen. Im Zusammenhang mit den Beschlüssen des jüngsten NATO-Gipfels ist von weiteren Milliardenbeträgen die Rede. Damit bleibt Deutschland einer der wichtigsten militärischen und finanziellen Unterstützer der Ukraine.Gleichzeitig gehen die Ermittlungsbehörden davon aus, dass die Sprengung der Nord Stream-Pipelines im Zusammenhang mit ukrainischen Akteuren stand. Über die strafrechtliche Verantwortung entscheidet letztlich das zuständige Gericht. Unabhängig davon stellt sich bereits heute eine grundsätzliche politische Frage: Welche Konsequenzen zieht Deutschland, wenn ein Staat, den es in außergewöhnlichem Umfang unterstützt, mit einem mutmaßlichen Anschlag auf deutsche Infrastruktur in Verbindung gebracht wird?Nord-Stream – weit mehr als ein Anschlag auf eine PipelineDie Sprengung der Nord Stream-Pipelines war kein gewöhnlicher Sabotageakt. Sie richtete sich nicht gegen irgendein Bauwerk auf dem Meeresgrund, sondern gegen einen zentralen Bestandteil der deutschen Energieversorgung. Wer Nord-Stream zerstörte, traf nicht nur Stahlrohre in der Ostsee, sondern das wirtschaftliche Rückgrat eines Industrielandes.Deutschland war – und ist – über Jahrzehnte auf eine verlässliche und vergleichsweise günstige Gasversorgung angewiesen. Erdgas ist nicht nur Heizenergie für Millionen Haushalte. Es ist Rohstoff für die Chemieindustrie, Energieträger für Stahlwerke, Glashersteller, Papierfabriken und zahllose mittelständische Unternehmen verschiedener Branchen. Die beiden Nord-Stream-Systeme verfügten zusammen über eine Transportkapazität von bis zu 110 Milliarden Kubikmetern Erdgas pro Jahr und gehörten damit zu den bedeutendsten Energieverbindungen Europas.Es wäre zu einfach, sämtliche wirtschaftlichen Probleme Deutschlands ausschließlich auf die Sprengung der Pipelines zurückzuführen. Ebenso unredlich wäre es jedoch, deren Bedeutung kleinzureden. Mit der Zerstörung der Leitungen verschwand eine zentrale Versorgungsoption dauerhaft aus dem energiepolitischen Instrumentarium Deutschlands. Die Folge sind höhere Unsicherheiten bei der Energieversorgung sowie eine stärkere Abhängigkeit von alternativen Bezugsquellen.Hohe Energiepreise verteuern jede industrielle Produktion. Unternehmen verlieren an Wettbewerbsfähigkeit, Investitionen werden verschoben oder ins Ausland verlagert, energieintensive Betriebe reduzieren ihre Produktion oder schließen Standorte. Der Anschlag war damit ein weiterer, äußerst schwerer Belastungsfaktor für den ohnehin unter Druck stehenden Industriestandort Deutschland.Die politische ReaktionMit der Anklage der Bundesanwaltschaft hat dieser Terrorakt eine neue Qualität erhalten. Sollte sich der erhobene Tatvorwurf vor Gericht bestätigen und sollten sich darüber hinaus Verantwortlichkeiten staatlicher ukrainischer Stellen nachweisen lassen, hätte dies erhebliche politische und völkerrechtliche Bedeutung....https://apolut.net/milliarden-trotz-nord-stream-anschlag-von-uwe-froschauer/

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: A new battlefield assessment suggests Russia has now suffered an estimated 1.4 million casualties in Ukraine. We examine the staggering new figures, why Moscow may be losing troops faster than it can replace them, and what the report reveals about the changing nature of modern warfare. German prosecutors say they've solved one of the biggest mysteries of the Ukraine war, alleging the 2022 Nord Stream pipeline sabotage was carried out on orders from Ukrainian state authorities. We'll break down the allegations, the evidence, and what they could mean for relations between Berlin and Kyiv.

In this week's Autopsy, we react to a DW News segment reporting that German prosecutors have concluded Ukraine ordered the Nord Stream pipeline sabotage. You can watch the full segment here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXy4wMdE1Hc. We analysed this in episode 27 back in February 2023, when a stakeholder analysis based purely on capability and motive pointed away from Russia and towards Ukraine and the United States as the most likely actors. Now we have a little more certainty.The story is not just about who did it. It is about Germany's response, which is essentially no response at all. Nord Stream 2 was an eleven billion dollar infrastructure project and the foundation of Germany's strategic energy model for decades. Its destruction is a direct cause of the industrial crisis that German manufacturers, workers, and citizens have been living with ever since. The perpetrator has now been identified, and it is the country that Germany has been arming and financing for four years. The reaction from Berlin is closer to awkward silence than accountability.This is the Western Bubble at its most revealing. Ukraine gets away with an act of war against a core NATO ally because the narrative of defeating Russia cannot be interrupted. Germany cannot hold Ukraine to account without undermining the entire political framework it has built around the conflict. So it does not. This podcast is an individual project between us, Dario Hasenstab and Balder Hageraats. We are supported by our producer Stefani Obradovic from Western Bubble Insights & Strategy.

In September 2022, there was a sensational sabotage attack in the Baltic Sea, which severely damaged a disputed German-Russian gas pipeline — called Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2. Now, in Germany, a Ukrainian has to answer to court who is accused of being the leader of the sabotage team. But who gave the order? - Im September 2022 kam es in der Ostsee zu einem sensationellen Sabotageanschlag, der eine umstrittene deutsch-russische Gaspipeline – genannt Nord Stream 1 und Nord Stream 2 – schwer beschädigte. Jetzt muss sich in Deutschland ein Ukrainer vor Gericht verantworten, dem vorgeworfen wird, der Anführer des Sabotageteams gewesen zu sein. Aber wer gab den Befehl?

Ein Film könnte sprichwörtlich Sprengstoff sein bei der Frage, wer die Erdgaspipeline Nord Stream lahmgelegt hat, und warum. Ein Kommentar von Tilo Gräser.Am 26. September 2022 wühlten vier Explosionen die Ostsee in der Nähe der dänischen Insel Bornholm auf. Die Ursache war ein Anschlag auf die Nord-Stream-Pipelines. Nord Stream 1 transportierte bis dahin russisches Erdgas nach Deutschland und Westeuropa. Nord Stream 2 wartete, schon mit Gas gefüllt, auf die Betriebsgenehmigung. Wer hat diesen Anschlag in wessen Auftrag ausgeführt? Diese Frage ist bis heute nicht endgültig beantwortet.Gleich drei Bücher sind kürzlich erschienen, die vorgeben, die Antwort zu haben: Georg Tidls Buch „Nord Stream – Die Sprengung der alten Weltordnung“, das Buch „Die Nord-Stream-Sprengung“, in dem Bojan Pancevski behauptet, „die wahre Geschichte“ zu bringen, sowie „Die Sprengung“, ein Buch, in dem die beiden offensichtlich antirussisch eingestellten Autoren Oliver Schröm und Ulrich Thiele auch „Deutschlands Verrat an der Ukraine“ zeigen wollen. Insbesondere Pancevski sowie Schröm und Thiele folgen dabei den offiziellen Erzählungen von einer Jacht, mit der ein paar Ukrainer zur Pipeline segelten und dann dort die Röhren sprengten. So wird von den Autoren der Bücher, außer Tidl, die Rolle des US-Geheimdienstes CIA nicht weiter beleuchtet. „Die US-Beteiligung bleibt der blinde Fleck der Nord-Stream-Recherchen“, stellte der Autor Wolfgang Michal in der Wochenzeitung Freitag zu den Büchern von Pancevski und Schröm/Thiele fest.Wer bei dem Fall wen verraten hat, das dürfte ganz anders zu beantworten sein. Mit der Sprengung der Nord-Stream-Pipelines wurden nicht nur Stahlrohre auf dem Grund der Ostsee zerstört, sondern auch die Lebensader der deutschen und westeuropäischen Energieversorgung durchtrennt. Die Energiepreise explodierten weiter, nachdem sie zuvor schon deutlich gestiegen waren. Unternehmen gerieten unter Druck und verlagerten ihre Produktionsstandorte. Die wirtschaftliche Stabilität Europas geriet ins Wanken. Die offiziellen Ermittlungen haben bis heute zu keiner wirklich überzeugenden Schlussfolgerung geführt. Sie bleiben die Antwort schuldig, wer in wessen Auftrag den Anschlag ausgeführt hat. Die Mainstream-Medien konzentrieren sich auf eine einzige Erklärung: auf ein paar Ukrainer auf einer Segeljacht. Die regierende Politik gibt vor, nichts zu wissen und verweist auf die Justiz.Antworten auf weggelassene FragenNun gibt es zum Thema auch etwas zu sehen: Der Film „Nord Stream – Die Sprengung“ will den Fall nun aufklären. Gemacht haben ihn Moritz Enders und Gunther Merz. Unterstützt wurden sie von Ronald Thoden vom Verlag des Nachrichtenmagazins Hintergrund, der als Produzent genannt wird. Der Dokumentarfilm stellt entscheidende Fragen, die andere weglassen – und liefert Antworten, die in der Politik niemand hören will. Die Filmemacher Enders und Merz präsentieren dazu eine Reihe Interviews mit internationalen Experten, Journalisten und ehemaligen Geheimdienstmitarbeitern.Zu Wort kommen unter anderem der deutsche Investigativjournalist Dirk Pohlmann, der MIT-Physiker und ehemaliger Militärberater Theodore Postol aus den USA, der schwedisch-norwegische Friedensforscher Ola Tunander, der frühere CIA-Analytiker Ray McGovern, Harald Kujat, Generalinspekteur der Bundeswehr a. D. und ehemaliger Vorsitzender des NATO-Militärausschusses, sowie der schwedische Ingenieur Erik Andersson. Letzterer hat die Trümmer der Gasröhren in der Ostsee mit einer eigenen Unterwasserdrohne analysiert....https://apolut.net/explosiver-film-zum-nord-stream-anschlag-von-tilo-graser/ Hosted on Acast.

I september 2022 uppstår vad som liknar en gigantisk bubbelpool i Östersjön. Gasledningarna Nord Stream 1 och 2, som levererar rysk gas till Tyskland har exploderat på flera ställen och 500 000 ton metangas söker sig upp till ytan. Det är det största sabotaget av infrastruktur i modern tid och snart spekuleras det vilt om vilka som ligger bakom – tills ett hårstrå från en före detta fotomodell dyker upp i utredningen. Programledare: Maria Hansson Botin. Med Bo Torbjörn Ek, reporter på DN. Producent: Sabina Marmullakaj.

In the fall of 2022, Danish authorities scrambled fighter jets to investigate a strange disturbance in the Baltic Sea. What they found was extraordinary.An enormous geyser had opened up on the water's surface. It was evidence that something deep below had ruptured with enormous force.Just days earlier, a team of divers had planted explosives along Nord Stream, a multi-billion dollar network of pipelines carrying Russian natural gas into Germany.In the days and months that followed, all kinds of theories emerged about who might have staged the attack, and why. Now, after years of investigations, intelligence leaks, arrests, and reporting across Europe, a much clearer picture of what happened that night has emerged.Bojan Pancevski is the Chief European Political Correspondent for The Wall Street Journal, and the author of the new book ‘The Nord Stream Conspiracy: The Inside Story of the Explosions That Shook the World'He joins us today to discuss one of the most consequential acts of infrastructure sabotage in recent history and the small group of Ukrainian civilian divers who, according to his reporting, pulled it off.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

She is also an award-winning author; some of her books include The Limits of Partnership: U.S.-Russian Relations in the Twenty-First Century (2014) and Putin's World: Russia Against the West and with the Rest (2019). Russia's war with Ukraine is increasingly becoming an energy war. As Ukraine's long-range strike capabilities improve, it has begun hitting Russian energy infrastructure with growing success, meaningfully reducing Russia's ability to produce refined products and crude oil. Jackie and Peter explore the complex geopolitics of the conflict with Angela, including Russia's relationships with Europe, the United States, and China. They also discuss the implications for Canada, including the growing attractiveness of energy from a stable supplier, a point recognized at the recent G7 meeting in France, where Canada was identified as a welcome source of energy to diversify away from supply routed through the Strait of Hormuz. Jackie and Peter ask Angela: Ukraine has delivered military strikes deep inside Russia this year — does that kind of pressure move Putin toward ending the war? How does Putin view the recent U.S.-Iran conflict, and what are the implications for the Russia-Ukraine war? Beyond Ukraine, is Russia a threat to other European countries? What is a realistic path to ending the war, and what would the best-case scenario look like? Content referenced on this podcast: G7 leaders' statement on geopolitical issues (June 17, 2026), welcoming the potential of Canada to deliver significant additional capacity to global markets in the coming years  Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/Check us out on social media:X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research InstituteSubscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

In September 2022, a series of underwater explosions tore through the Nord Stream pipelines beneath the Baltic Sea. The destruction of this $20 billion pipeline severed a major artery of Russian gas supplies to Europe, disrupted economies and triggered a manhunt that strained relations within the NATO alliance. In this episode, journalist Hannah Lucinda Smith speaks with Wall Street Journal Chief European Political Correspondent Bojan Pancevski about his investigation into this seismic act of sabotage.  Despite capturing the imagination of millions, the mystery of who blew up the pipeline has so far gone unsolved – was it the CIA? Was it part of the shadow war between Russia and the West? Could Putin himself have been behind it? Drawing on years of reporting and access to intelligence officials, investigators and key players, Pancevski reconstructs the events behind one of the most consequential acts of sabotage in modern history.  Bojan Pancevski is Chief European Political Correspondent at The Wall Street Journal. He is the author of The Nord Stream Conspiracy: The Inside Story of the Explosions That Shook the World. Hannah Lucinda Smith is a journalist and foreign correspondent reporting on global politics, conflict and international affairs.

The Collapse of Germany (Part 2) Black Spy Podcast number 251, Season 25, Episode 0009   In last week's and this week's incisive episodes of the Black Spy Podcast, Carlton King delivers a hard-hitting geopolitical assessment of Germany's present day collapse from its position of the undisputed economic powerhouse of the European continent as a result of Germany's action to aid the Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.   Carlton examines the growing militarism of Germany, its Intelligence Reconnaissance Surveillance (IRS) support to the Ukraine to strike Russian cities including Moscow and St Petersburg as well as building German forces to a level not seen since the Third Reich.   Carlton argues that this military build-up threatens much of the world and particularly ordinary European citizens and many of Europe's nationalist political elites.   Carlton asks why German politicians allowed their economy to be destroyed,  explaining the relevance of who destroyed the Nordstream pipeline in this vain. Nordstream providing Germany with an abundance of extremely cheap energy, Additionally, Carlton asks if German politicians have been compromised by compromat material as the US NSA was listening into (eavesdropping) on German politicians including Angela Merkel for over a decade.   Along with this situation Carlton exhaustively assesses why Germany is collapsing.

Le 26 septembre 2022, des bouillonnements apparaissent en mer Baltique. Au bout de plusieurs heures, les autorités danoises détectent des fuites sur des tuyaux du très crucial gazoduc Nord Stream, qui achemine les hydrocarbures de la Russie vers le cœur de l'Europe. Quelques mois après le début de l'invasion russe, et alors que la guerre en Ukraine s'enlise, les états-majors s'interrogent : qui a saboté Nord Stream ? Quatre ans plus tard, la réponse est encore floue, même si les soupçons semblent vers pointer vers... l'Ukraine. Cette semaine, dans "Nid d'espions”, Charlotte Baris et Etienne Girard, directeur adjoint de la rédaction de L'Express et spécialiste des questions d'espionnage, reçoit Morgane Fert Malka, auteure de « Mes instructions viennent de plus haut ». La vérité sur l'explosion du Nord Stream (Éditions Stock), pour tenter de faire la lumière sur les responsabilités dans le sabotage du gazoduc. Au-delà du conflit entre la Russie et l'Ukraine, le sabotage illustre les méthodes de collaboration entre les services de renseignements occidentaux. “Nid d'espions” est un podcast de L'Express, consacré au renseignement, et au rôle majeur des espions dans les moments clés de l'Histoire.

In this episode of the Anglotopia Podcast, Jonathan Thomas is joined by Brendan Dowd — West Point graduate, Iraq War veteran, government consultant, and host of History Nerds United, one of the most respected history book podcasts in the business with over 220 episodes — for a pure, unfiltered book nerd conversation. Both hosts came with a stack of their favorite British history books and took turns sharing their picks, debating the merits, going gloriously off-topic about Darkest Hour, the new Wuthering Heights film, Bridgerton, and Dan Jones's upcoming castles book, and building what amounts to a British history reading list that will keep you busy for years. Between them, Jonathan and Brendan recommend over 20 books spanning Alfred the Great, the Tudors, the Regency, Victorian London, World War II, Thatcher, the Iranian Embassy Siege, and the hidden history of English wolves — plus a peek at what's sitting on each of their TBR piles right now. Links History Nerds United ~History Nerds United Podcast~ ~History Nerds United on YouTube~ ~Brendan's Top Episode: Helen Castor on Joan of Arc~ (update with direct episode link) ⠀Jonathan's Picks ~Notes from a Small Island by Bill Bryson~ ~The Road to Little Dribbling by Bill Bryson~ ~Churchill: Walking with Destiny by Andrew Roberts~ ~My Early Life by Winston Churchill~ ~A Very English Scandal by John Preston~ ~London: The Biography by Peter Ackroyd~ ~Citizens of London by Lynne Olson~ ~Empireland by Sathnam Sanghera~ ~Empireworld by Sathnam Sanghera~ ~The Iron Lady by John Campbell~ ~The Last Wolf by Robert Winder~ ~The Decline and Fall of the British Aristocracy by David Cannadine~ ~Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh~ ~The Regency Years by Robert Morrison~ ~Churchill's Citadel by Katherine Carter~ ⠀Brendan's Picks ~Alfred the Great by Justin Pollard~ ~The Six Loves of James I by Gareth Russell~ ~Battle for the Island Kingdom by Don Hollway~ ~Once a King: The Lost Memoir of Edward VIII by Jane Marguerite Tippett~ ~The Greatest Knight by Thomas Asbridge~ ~Henry V by Dan Jones~ ~Thomas More: A Life by Joanne Paul~ ~The Stolen Crown by Tracy Borman~ ~The Crown's Silence by Brooke Newman~ ~The Eagle and the Hart by Helen Castor~ ~The Invention of Charlotte Brontë by Graham Watson~ ~London Falling by Patrick Radden Keefe~ ~The Siege by Ben Macintyre~ ⠀Also Mentioned ~Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keefe~ ~Empire of Pain by Patrick Radden Keefe~ ~Secrets of Great British Castles with Dan Jones on Netflix~ ~Darkest Hour (2017)~ ~Young Winston (1972)~ ⠀Anglotopia ~101 Oxford Travel Tips and Tricks by Jonathan Thomas~ (update with direct product link) ~Anglotopia Guide to the World of Bridgerton~ (update with direct product link) ~Friends of Anglotopia Club~ (update with correct URL) ⠀ Takeaways Both Jonathan and Brendan started their podcasts for exactly the same reason — frustration at the quality of existing coverage in their field — and both were shocked to discover how generous, enthusiastic, and collegial the history author community turned out to be. Brendan's gateway into British history was Alfred the Great by Justin Pollard — a compact, accessible biography of the only English monarch to earn the title "the Great," which he recommends as the perfect gateway drug for readers who think history books are intimidating. Jonathan's most-reread British book is Bill Bryson's Notes from a Small Island — a definitive outsider's portrait of British culture from the early 1990s that remains beloved by British readers themselves, and the book that most shaped his vision for Anglotopia. Andrew Roberts's one-volume Churchill biography is both Jonathan and Brendan's recommended starting point for anyone wanting a modern, comprehensive, and myth-busting account of Churchill — and Roberts's Napoleon biography is equally essential. Helen Castor is independently named by Brendan as one of his very favorite history writers — her Eagle and the Hart on Richard II and Henry IV, and her Joan of Arc episode of his podcast, are both highlighted as exceptional examples of humanizing complex historical figures without sanitizing them. Both hosts agree that the best history books share a quality: they humanize their subjects — showing the positive and the negative — rather than either condemning or canonizing them. The books they admire most leave the reader to make their own moral judgments. Empireland by Sathnam Sanghera and The Crown's Silence by Brooke Newman both generated significant controversy — particularly in British publications — but both Jonathan and Brendan recommend them as essential, rigorously evidenced correctives to popular myths about the British Empire and the monarchy's role in the slave trade. Ben Macintyre's The Siege — on the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege in London that made the SAS famous — is Brendan's pick for best recent true British history read, praised for building unbearable tension over hundreds of pages before releasing it all in a single extended final chapter. The new Wuthering Heights film gets a thumbs-down from both hosts — "it looks beautiful but just didn't land" — while Darkest Hour generates a spirited debate about the Underground scene that ends with both agreeing it's historically wrong but emotionally right. Both hosts are currently working through books about the interwar period, Cold War espionage, and upcoming releases from Dan Jones and Thomas Asbridge — and both agree that the single greatest problem with loving history books is that the TBR pile never gets shorter. ⠀ Soundbites "I lost it. I said, there's gotta be a better way. I don't want to continually torture my family with all my rants about books. So I started the blog." — Brendan on the one-star Amazon review that launched History Nerds United. "I sent 10 emails on the first day thinking if I get one back I'll be ecstatic. I got eight back within three days. And I've now sat on a boat with Dan Jones having drinks, overlooking Omaha Beach. Nobody tell me it didn't happen." — Brendan on the unexpected magic of the history community. "I have yet to interview a jerk. Everyone has been unfailingly nice and so excited to be there and just so game to talk about whatever." — Brendan on 220+ episodes of History Nerds United. "My long-term goal is to be like Bill Bryson. I've actually met him. He's a very nice chap. I can only hope to be 10% as good as him one day." — Jonathan on Notes from a Small Island and his writing ambitions. *"If you want to understand why everything is happening in Downton Abbey, read *The Decline and Fall of the British Aristocracy. I read it as research for a novel I was writing in college and it has never left me." — Jonathan on David Cannadine's masterwork. "Churchill wouldn't have done that. He was not that type of person. But you put Churchill in a period tube carriage, surrounded by Londoners during the Blitz, and it captures the essence of what the story is trying to tell. Was it real? Heck no." — Jonathan and Brendan on the Underground scene in Darkest Hour. "Helen Castor is constantly teaching you, but you feel like you're just having a conversation within the book. At the end of it, you hear Helen get emotional talking about this teenager burned at the stake — how scared she must have been, even with all her faith. She makes her human instead of an icon." — Brendan on his favorite episode of History Nerds United. "The thesis is that because Britain hunted wolves to extinction, it unleashed the economic powerhouse of sheep farming and wool — and as a consequence of that led to so much of what we know as Britain. I read it and I wanted to read it all over again immediately." — Jonathan on The Last Wolf by Robert Winder. "She stayed laser focused on the Elizabethan succession and somehow it's still interesting all the way through. She mentions the Spanish Armada for about three sentences. I said in my review: this book has been written. We don't need any more on this subject." — Brendan on Tracy Borman's The Stolen Crown. "No author has ever made me feel more lazy than Catherine Grace Katz — she wrote *Daughters of Yalta* while she was in law school. If you told me that I would one day be sitting there with Marsha Clark from the OJ Simpson trial, I would have called you a liar. But that's what this world does." — Brendan on the surreal privilege of the history podcast community. ⠀ Chapters 00:00 Introduction — Jonathan sets up the book conversation episode and introduces

Une critique nourrie par les contacts de plus en plus fréquents que des mouvements d'employeurs et des responsables de groupes internationaux établissent avec le parti de Mme Le Pen. Quelques jours après le dîner de Marine le Pen avec des patrons du CAC 40, le bureau du Medef a reçu le 20 avril pour la première fois officiellement à déjeuner le président du RN, Jordan Bardella. Une réunion qui s'est tenue en présence de son président Patrick Martin, mais aussi des dirigeants des grandes fédérations professionnelles, des banques, du bâtiment, des travaux publics, ou encore de la métallurgie.Le débat est ouvert au sein du patronat sur l'opportunité de telles rencontres. Le positionnement du premier mouvement d'employeurs a évolué depuis vingt ans. Lorsque Laurence Parisot était la présidente du Medef entre 2005 et 2013, la doctrine du cordon sanitaire prévalait. En 2019, un changement d'approche avait été envisagé : Geoffroy Roux de Bézieux, le numéro un de l'organisation à l'époque, souhaitait convier Marion Maréchal Le Pen à un débat pendant les universités d'été du Medef, mais il y avait finalement renoncé, devant le tollé suscité par ce projet. Aujourd'hui, les relations se sont normalisées car, pour Patrick Martin et de nombreux autres patrons, il est impossible de tenir à distance la formation qui a le groupe le plus étoffé à l'Assemblée nationale.Pascal Demurger, directeur général de la compagnie mutualiste MAIF, s'est élevé dans Le Monde contre ce rapprochement, et dénonce « une erreur tactique et une illusion politique d'imaginer pouvoir influer sur une idéologie aussi radicale. »À un an de la présidentielle, il ressort de ces rencontres, que le programme économique du RN est loin de convaincre les milieux d'affaires. Le parti à la flamme se défend de tout renoncement à son programme économique, qui, sur des sujets comme l'Union européenne, la réforme des retraites, l'immigration de travail, restent profondément urticants aux yeux des milieux d'affaires.LE RETRAIT DES TROUPES AMÉRICAINES D'ALLEMAGNELe Pentagone a annoncé le 1er mai le retrait de 5.000 des militaires américains d'Allemagne d'ici un an, soit 15 % des effectifs des 36.000 soldats stationnés Outre-Rhin. Concrètement, une brigade de combat doit quitter le territoire allemand, et un bataillon d'artillerie longue portée, prévu de longue date, ne viendra finalement pas. L'objectif affiché est de revenir à un niveau de présence « pré-2022 », c'est-à-dire avant le renforcement décidé après l'invasion de l'Ukraine. Cette décision de Donald Trump intervient après des tensions avec le chancelier Friedrich Merz sur la stratégie américaine en Iran et vise aussi l'Italie et l'Espagne. « Que des troupes des Etats-Unis se retirent d'Europe et d'Allemagne était attendu », a réagi le ministre allemand de la Défense, Boris Pistorius, tout en soulignant que la présence de soldats américains en Europe et en Allemagne servait de « dissuasion collective » et était « dans l'intérêt » de l'Allemagne comme des Etats-Unis. Outre-Atlantique, les chefs de file des commissions des forces armées du Sénat et de la Chambre des représentants s'inquiètent, malgré tout, d'un « mauvais signal envoyé à Vladimir Poutine » et suggèrent de redéployer ces troupes plus à l'est de l'Europe. En 2020, lors de son premier mandat à la Maison-Blanche, exaspéré par le faible niveau des dépenses de défense de l'Allemagne et par son soutien au gazoduc Nord Stream 2, Donald Trump avait déjà déclaré qu'il réduirait d'un tiers les effectifs américains sur place. Le président Joe Biden avait finalement gelé ce projet en février 2021, avant de l'annuler officiellement.L'Allemagne constitue le pays clef du dispositif militaire américain en Europe. Elle abrite à Stuttgart le Commandement suprême des forces américaines en Europe (Eucom) ainsi que le Commandement des forces américaines en Afrique (Africom). Le plus grand terrain d'entraînement militaire américain à l'étranger se trouve près de Grafenwöhr, en Bavière et c'est aussi en Allemagne, à Landstuhl (Rhénanie-Palatinat), qu'est installé le plus grand hôpital militaire américain en dehors des États-Unis. Enfin, l'énorme base aérienne de Ramstein en Rhénanie-Palatinat a joué un rôle logistique clef dans la guerre avec l'Iran. Ces implantations ne se limitent plus à une logique de présence symbolique ou de dissuasion, mais constituent des points d'appui opérationnels majeurs pour Washington : des plateformes avancées, mais aussi des hubs logistiques indispensables à la conduite des interventions américaines en Irak, en Afghanistan, et plus récemment vers l'Iran.Les dirigeants européens doutent de plus en plus de la possibilité d'une intervention américaine en cas d'attaque de leurs territoires. Désormais, « il faut sans aucun doute renforcer la dimension européenne au sein de l'OTAN », a rappelé, lundi, Keir Starmer, le premier ministre britannique. Défendu de longue date par Paris, le renforcement du « pilier européen » de l'Alliance est désormais partagé par de nombreux alliés, dont Berlin, Londres, La Haye et Stockholm.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

Der aktuelle EU-Kredit für die Ukraine und die gleichzeitige Verweigerung beim Thema Nord Stream 2 trotz aktueller Indizien sind bereits einzeln skandalös. In der Kombination entsteht ein neuer Gipfel der Unverschämtheit. Der entmündigende Umgang mit den beiden Skandalen ist nur möglich, weil viele etablierte Medien bei den Themen die Arbeit verweigern.

El llamado de la presidenta Claudia Sheinbaum a evaluar los pros y contras del fracking ha reactivado el debate en México. Mientras el gobierno defiende esta técnica para reducir la dependencia energética de Estados Unidos, expertos y ambientalistas advierten de sus riesgos. El geólogo Luca Ferrari, investigador de la UNAM, analiza las implicaciones económicas, ambientales y políticas de esta decisión. Entre 2012 y 2015, la empresa estatal Pemex intentó extraer gas natural mediante fracking, un método que consiste en fracturar la tierra utilizando enormes cantidades de agua mezcladas con sustancias altamente tóxicas. El resultado, sin embargo, no fue el esperado, sobre todo en el ámbito económico, dice el geólogo Luca Ferrari, investigador del Instituto de Geociencias de la UNAM. "Fue bastante desastroso desde el punto de vista económico. El costo no valía lo que se estaba extrayendo. Las poblaciones ahí están completamente en contra [del fracking] porque evidentemente han visto en carne propia lo que significa", dice Ferrari.  A pesar de esa experiencia, el gobierno mexicano estima que el fracking es necesario para reducir su dependencia de Estados Unidos, país al que le compra el 75% del gas natural que consume. No obstante, para Luca Ferrari, el argumento de la soberanía es un árbol que oculta otro problema: México no tiene las tecnologías para extraer esa energía fósil. ¿Decisión para defender la soberanía?  "Si la extracción se hace en la zona noreste de México, solo las compañías de Texas lo podrán hacer. Como allá ya está empezando a llegar al máximo la extracción, puede ser que esas compañías estadounidenses consideren más atractivo venir a México. En este sentido, no creo que sea una decisión muy soberana por parte del gobierno mexicano. Incluso creo que puede haber una presión por parte de Estados Unidos dentro de la negociación del T-MEC para que México abra el fracking y permita a las empresas americanas operar en el país. A Estados Unidos le conviene más exportar gas a Europa como gas licuado. En Europa, sobre todo ahora con la guerra, pero también antes con el sabotaje del Nord Stream, el gasoducto que venía de Rusia, se han visto obligados a comprar gas estadounidense, que es muchísimo más caro: hasta cinco veces más que lo que se vende aquí". La búsqueda de soberanía energética por parte de México, añade el investigador, requiere una reflexión profunda sobre el modelo económico del país. "Si queremos importar menos energía, tenemos que rediscutir para qué usamos la energía. En la actualidad, México utiliza una gran cantidad de electricidad y gas en el sector industrial. Importamos energía de Estados Unidos para producir bienes aquí, porque la mano de obra es más barata y la legislación ambiental no es tan estricta como, por ejemplo, en California. Luego exportamos esos productos a Estados Unidos. Este modelo no puede funcionar, no es sostenible".

C dans l'air du 16 avril 2026 - Trump, Poutine... dans le piège de la guerreQue se passe-t-il en Russie ? Fait rare, Vladimir Poutine a reconnu hier que l'économie russe est dans le rouge, sonne l'alarme et réclame des "mesures supplémentaires afin de relancer la croissance". Ce n'est pas anodin. Depuis des mois, les sanctions, le coût de la guerre et l'isolement international pèsent lourd. Concrètement, cela se traduit par un fort ralentissement de l'économie russe, de l'inflation, et un déficit budgétaire qui dépasse déjà les prévisions pour l'année entière. Et puis il y a le pari stratégique autour de la guerre en Iran. Sur le papier, Moscou pouvait y voir une opportunité — détourner l'attention de l'Ukraine, rééquilibrer le rapport de force. Dans les faits, c'est plus compliqué. L'instabilité s'étend, les bénéfices sont pour l'instant limités, et la Russie doit s'adapter. Résultat : le chef de la diplomatie, Sergueï Lavrov, s'active, multiplie les contacts. Il s'est rendu cette semaine à Pékin pour affirmer la proximité de la Russie et la Chine, et porter un message : la Russie est prête à "compenser" le déficit de ressources énergétiques que l'empire du Milieu subirait à cause du conflit. Parallèlement, Vladimir Poutine a proposé d'accueillir l'uranium enrichi iranien en Russie dans le cadre d'un éventuel accord de paix entre Washington et Téhéran qui pour l'instant semble encore loin d'être scellé. De retour d'Iran le ministère des Affaires étrangères du Pakistan a indiqué ce jeudi qu'aucune date n'avait été fixée pour la prochaine série de négociations.Aux États-Unis, là aussi, la situation de Donald Trump se complique, notamment à cause de la guerre en Iran. Au départ, une démonstration de force. Aujourd'hui, des questions. Le blocus des États-Unis dans le détroit d'Ormuz est entré en vigueur. Mais pour combien de temps ? Pour quels objectifs ? Et avec quelles conséquences ? Les critiques montent, y compris chez les vétérans et dans son propre camp. Certains républicains dénoncent une contradiction avec la doctrine « America First » et redoutent le coût politique d'un conflit prolongé à six mois des midterms. En 2024, Donald Trump avait formé une coalition aussi immense qu'hétéroclite. Mais un an plus tard, entre interventionnisme en Iran, choc protectionniste et outrances verbales, le vernis craque, et de plus en plus d'Américains mécontents se font entendre.Autre signal politique, cette fois en Europe : la défaite de Viktor Orbán en Hongrie. Un revers important pour celui qui était considéré comme un allié stratégique de Moscou et un point d'appui pour l'administration Trump. Le vice-président états-unien J.D. Vance était d'ailleurs allé soutenir Viktor Orbán sur place la semaine dernière et Donald Trump lui-même s'était exprimé par téléphone lors d'un des meetings de sa campagne. Cette défaite affaiblit un relais politique clé au sein de l'Union européenne, et envoie un message plus large : les lignes peuvent bouger, y compris dans des pays où le pouvoir semblait solidement installé. Pour Vladimir Poutine comme pour l'entourage de Donald Trump, c'est une perte d'influence indirecte mais réelle.Nos experts :- Général Dominique TRINQUAND - Ancien chef de la mission militaire française auprès de l'ONU- Daphné BENOIT - Cheffe du pôle international de l'AFP, ex-correspondante défense à Paris et au Pentagone- Marion Van RENTERGHEM - Grand reporter, chroniqueuse - L'Express, auteure de Le piège Nord Stream- Philippe GELIE - Directeur adjoint de la rédaction – Le Figaro

Anders Puck Nielsen er militæranalytiker ved Forsvarsakademiet og vært på podcasten Krigskunst. I dagens afsnit prøver vi at finde hoved og hale i den geopolitiske situation lige nu. Vi snakker om USA og Iran, Rusland og Ukraine og hvor tæt vi egentlig er på en direkte konflikt med Rusland. Vi kommer også ind på hvem der reelt sætter retningen i den vestlige verden i de her år, om Rusland og Ukraine stadig er i krig om 4 år, og hvad vi kan forvente fra dansk side fremadrettet. Derudover snakker vi om dronerne over Danmark, Nord Stream 2 og hvorfor den danske strategi med nogle gange at lade som ingenting måske er mere effektiv end den får credit for.

South Carolinians were promised a small break — a two-month gas tax suspension — but lawmakers blocked it, keeping millions flowing into state coffers. Meanwhile, Germany shocks the world by planning 15 new nuclear plants and rebuilding the Nord Stream pipeline, defying US sanctions and challenging the dollar's dominance. Energy, politics, and money collide — what it means for you and the economy. Episode Summary: South Carolina Budget Madness: Billion-dollar surplus, no tax relief for waitresses or parents, and a blocked two-month gas tax break. Legislators prioritize revenue forecasts over real-life relief. Gas Prices & Policy: Gasoline prices remain high, echoing 2022 levels, yet lawmakers ignore temporary relief measures. Germany's Energy Rebellion: Fifteen new nuclear plants, lifting sanctions on Russian oil & gas, and plans to rebuild Nord Stream — signaling Europe's pivot away from US-dominated energy transactions. Petrodollar at Risk: Germany's move could destabilize the US dollar if other European nations follow suit. Trump-era foreign policy tensions loom as NATO dynamics face new strains. Global Implications: The US faces challenges to its economic and geopolitical influence as Europe explores energy independence. Key Quotes: “They got plenty of money… but they would like to have your money.” “German government just announced it's gonna build fifteen new nuclear power plants.” “Washington's gotta stop spending money. We're about to lose this printing press.” Suggested Social Media Post:
