SPD Leader calls on Scholz to maintain talks with Putin

Saskia Esken, the leader of Germany’s Social Democratic Party (SPD), stated that Chancellor Olaf Scholz should allegedly continue communicating with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, according to n-tv.

Esken believes that negotiations could allegedly help understand what can be done to end the full-scale war in Ukraine.

“These negotiations must happen again and again to find out what can be done to finally put an end to the killings and deaths,” she said.

At the same time, the SPD leader added that there is no need for Scholz to meet Putin in person.

“As long as relations remain as they are, it is certainly sufficient to talk by phone,” Esken noted.

Scholz-Putin negotiations

In November 2024, Scholz held a phone conversation with Putin. It was the first such discussion in two years. Later, the chancellor stated that the dictator has not changed his views on the war in Ukraine.

Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) reacted to the Scholz-Putin talks, stating that dialogue with the Kremlin’s leader will not help achieve a just end to the full-scale war.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in turn, remarked that Scholz’s call to Putin is a Pandora’s box.

New Orleans, Tesla truck explosion, Gazprom and the debt ceiling

A U.S. Army veteran flying an ISIS flag from his truck plowed into New Orleans’ crowded French Quarter on New Year’s Day, killing 15 people. President Joe Biden says investigators are looking into possible links between that attack and the explosion of a Tesla Cybertruck outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. Russian gas exports via Ukraine have come to an end, but where does it leave gas giant Gazprom? And just what is the U.S. debt ceiling and how does it work?

January 1, 2024: @ZelenskyyUa’s statement on the suspension of Russian natural gas transit trough Ukraine: Everything in Russia is a mafia criminal enterprise including gas and oil exports. «When Putin was given power in Russia more than 25 years ago, the annual gas flow through the territory of Ukraine to Europe was 130+ billion cubic meters. Today, Russian gas transit is 0. This is one of Moscow’s biggest defeats. The transformation of energy resources into weapons and cynical energy blackmail by partners is what deprived Russia (access to) the most (financially) attractive and geographically accessible market. Given the circumstances (of Putin’s illegal war of aggression), the absolute ma
