    1. >France’s Finance Minister Roland Lescure revealed on Wednesday that between **30 and 40 per cent of Gulf refining capacity has been damaged or destroyed by Iran’s retaliatory strikes, leaving a shortage of 11 million barrels a day on global oil markets. Lescure warned it could take up to three years to restore damaged facilities, and several months to restart those that were urgently shut down.**
      Meanwhile, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has travelled to Algeria for emergency energy talks, seeking to secure increased gas deliveries to Italy as the country scrambles to replace lost LNG supplies from Qatar.
      With fossil fuel supplies under severe strain, both the UK and Germany signalled on Wednesday that the energy crisis is accelerating their green transitions.
      This, as European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde assured the continent that the ECB has several options for dealing with the inflation shock triggered by the US-Israeli war on Iran, and vowed policymakers would not be „paralysed by hesitation“.

      You can say a lot about Macron, but he started preparing to build new reactors as soon as Russia invaded Ukraine.

    6. It’s ok, the kind US companies will help reconstruct it for a fee and sell us fuel while we are deeply concerned.

    7. Quick idea: how about building a world that doesn’t depend on dirty energy controlled by psychopathic manbabies?

    8. Oh thank God France confirmed it. I filled my tank today at 2,2 euros a litre, but I still had my doubts.

      All most people want to do is earn a living, take care of their loved ones and be happy. Apparently that’s too much to ask for.

    10. An 80 year old bloke orders to bomb an 84 year old bloke, while a 73 year old bloke bombs millions.

      Can’t they just do gardening, sudoku or taking pictures of classic trains, like other old blokes and leave the rest of the world alone please?
