Mario Seminerio wondered what "ideology" the debate on the return to gas supplies from Russia referred to, recalling that of a sovereign country that had been militarily invaded and whose civilians, in his view, had been targeted and killed every day for years. He also shared an article stating Orsini's position, according to which there could be no ideology regarding energy. https://t.co/DwgmxmHnOd #Energia #Sovranità #Conflitto (translated)

I fully supported President Zelensky's request for a ceasefire that protects global food supplies and energy infrastructure in Ukraine and Russia – he wrote in a note – The war has entered a new, darker phase. Russia is at a standstill on the battlefield and is striking civilians far from the front lines. I expressed our solidarity with the Ukrainian people. And my full support for President Zelensky, who leads the fight for his people's freedom. The President of the Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, after "a good talk with President Zelensky," reaffirms the Union's full support for Kiev's cause: "I fully supported President Zelensky's request for a ceasefire that protects global food supplies and energy infrastructure in Ukraine and Russia – he wrote in a note – The war has entered a new, darker phase. Russia is at a standstill on the battlefield and is striking civilians far from the front lines. I expressed our solidarity with the Ukrainian people. And my full support for President Zelensky, who leads the fight for his people's freedom." #Trump #Zelensky #UnioneEuropea (translated)

Lia Bencivenga said she had not followed and did not want to follow a program she considered dishonest. Commenting on the discussions about the so-called Dossier K, she argued that its contents were verifiable in the SITs of the cited individuals and that even Stasi's defense had had suspicions about the Kappa family, without this constituting a crime. Bencivenga added that the dossier and the numerous emails sent to the Prosecutor's Office were on record and that nothing had been hidden. She then wondered why the person she called "Miss FBI" was so interested in knowing the author of the dossier, while, according to her, she showed no interest in the concealment of decisive results attributed to the RIS of Garofano and another involved person. She also criticized that person's reaction to the "personal consulting," which, in her opinion, had been found in the RIS files even though it had never been requested, submitted, or signed. Finally, Bencivenga criticized four people who were following that case, claiming that they had poor critical reading skills and were attracted to malice and meanness. She asked the person called "Miss FBI" if she checked the documents before becoming indignant. #mostri #garlasco #dossierK #giustizia (translated)

"For me, it's always good news when the great powers talk to each other and don't shoot at each other." Marco Travaglio comments like this on Accordi & Disaccordi, the talk show hosted by Luca Sommi on Saturdays on Nove, about the agreement between Putin and Trump regarding diesel supplies, exempt from U.S. sanctions until April to contain energy prices. #Trump #Putin #Energia (translated)

Luigi Marattin responded to Corrado Formigli, who in the Corriere had described as "an embarrassing confusion" what the deputy said on Piazzapulita. Marattin mentioned that he has been reading investigative journalism and historical studies on conflicts for decades and cited Il Legionario, a book about Giustino De Vuono, arguing that its author documented the presented theses. Marattin accused the documentary Naza of making unfounded accusations. He cited the bombing which, according to the mentioned reconstruction, would have killed 500 civilians, stating that no evidence of either the attack or the death toll had been presented. He argued that the only source was Hamas's word, treated as truth, while Israeli accounts were dismissed as propaganda. He added that he had said on air that, in wartime, he did not consider the reports of the involved parties reliable and preferred those from independent observers. For this reason, he described Israel's decision not to allow foreign journalists into Gaza, even at their own risk, as a mistake. Marattin accused Formigli of not listening to this point and of silencing dissenters, imposing his own opinion. Finally, he wrote that he would have liked to read a "mea culpa" from the host for his statements about Israeli children on October 7. #giornalismodinchiesta #storia #media (translated)

Il presidente Volodymyr Zelensky ha dichiarato che la squadra negoziale ucraina negli Stati Uniti viene usata come "paravento" mentre Donald Trump stringe accordi con Vladimir Putin sulle forniture di carburante. "Ritengo che la nostra squadra venga usata semplicemente come paravento. E questo non è affatto onesto, non è affatto da partner. E secondo me, purtroppo, è una decisione debole da parte di partner forti", ha detto il presidente. Ha aggiunto che accordi di questo tipo significano soldi in più per Putin per questa guerra. Certo, uno smacco bello e buono, anche all’Europa…e poi parliamo di sanzioni!! Questo è un colpo che ha spiazzato tutti, e dimostra ancora una volta come ai cari americani non gliene freghi niente. Ricordo, tanti anni fa, un dialogo con un americano di origine egiziana, sulla via di Odessa. C’era Clinton, io tessevo le sue lodi, il tizio mi disse “ma voi credete che agli americani interessi qualcosa di qualcuno?? A loro interessa solo che la benzina costi poco!!”. Mi risuonano queste parole, dette negli anni 90. Certo, le elezioni di medio termine sono alle porte, il presidente è in calo di consensi, e si allea anche col demonio. Da adesso in poi, non so cosa succederà, che senso ha parlare di sanzioni europee, se poi gli americani sdoganano il petrolio russo??

The tanker Minerva Zen, loaded with Russian diesel and departing from St. Petersburg on September 22, is heading towards Wilmington, North Carolina, with an expected arrival on October 11, just two days after Trump's announcement of the agreement with Putin for the increase of diesel supplies. #MinervaZen #dieselRusso #TrumpPutin (translated)

Ultimora.net, citing Reuters, reported that the supplies announced by Donald Trump for October and November amounted to about 2.2 million barrels in the immediate term and 3.7 million in November. It added that the first two tranches, totaling about 5.9 million barrels, were equivalent to about a week's worth of Russian diesel exports, which exceeded 800,000 barrels per day in 2025. #Energia #Petrolio #Esportazioni (translated)

Alessandro Orsini stated that Europe depended on Russia for energy supplies and described as humiliating the announcement, attributed to Donald Trump, of an agreement with Vladimir Putin for the supply of over 300,000 tons of diesel, which would lower prices. Citing the Corriere della Sera, he reported that Europe was facing winter with the lowest gas reserves in the last fifteen years and was purchasing more gas by ship from Russia than ever before. According to the data he provided, European storage was 72% full, compared to 83% a year earlier, while in Germany and the Netherlands it was below 60%. Orsini claimed that the agreement would give Putin more resources to strike Ukraine. Orsini recalled predicting that an attempt by NATO to defeat Russia on the battlefield would provoke a more intense Russian response against Ukraine and a severe economic crisis for Europe and Italy. He said that the prediction, made on February 24, 2022, had not been believed and that subsequent events had confirmed it. He also announced his participation that evening in the program *Accordi e Disaccordi* and the presentation, on October 17, at the Feltrinelli in Largo Argentina in Rome with Luca Sommi, of his book *Nato, l’espansione verso la Russia*. He described the volume as a historical reconstruction of NATO's enlargement towards Russia, from the promises to Gorbachev during the negotiations for German reunification to the war in Ukraine. The thesis of the book, he explained, connected the documentary origins of tensions between NATO and Russia to the contradiction between Article 5 and the minutes attached to the Treaty on the Final Settlement of Germany of September 12, 1990. https://t.co/2KWZ8kSEG9 #Russia #Europa #Gas (translated)

Donald Trump claimed to have a great relationship with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni while announcing an agreement with Vladimir Putin for the supply of diesel, raising concerns from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky about the possible repercussions of such an understanding on the conflict in Ukraine. #Trump #Putin #Ucraina (translated)

I just concluded a very successful interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin, during which it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 tons of diesel to the American and global markets, another 500,000 tons in November, and 1,000,000 tons right after. Donald Trump states this on his social platform Truth, emphasizing that "moreover, based on the capacity of their refineries, Russia will deliver, in the short term, an additional 3,000,000 tons of diesel." #Trump #Putin #gasolio (translated)
