Ukraine’s military nuclear program

According to Laurence Norman, journalist for the Wall Street Journal, International Atomic Energy Agency Director Rafael Grossi told the Davos Forum that 30 tons of plutonium and 40 tons of enriched uranium are stockpiled at the Ukrainian power plant in Zaporijjia [Zaporizhzhya].

The enrichment rate of the uranium is not specified. Uranium enriched to 5% can only be used for civil purposes; weapons manufacturing requires a threshold of 80%.

The amount of enriched uranium and plutonium found on the territory of the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine’s Energodar was more than enough. Such volumes could be used for the production of nuclear weapons, Sergey Kondratiev, deputy head of the department at the Institute of Energy and Finance told lenta. ru publication. The discovery calls into question the viability of the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) and Euratom (European Atomic Energy Community).

Biden in Asia: Further Steps Toward War with China

For observers of President Biden’s recent visit to Asia it will come as no surprise that, as in the past, the US sought to encourage Asian allies to join in further strengthening its political, economic and especially military containment of China. Like the US role in prolonging the war in Ukraine in order to weaken Russia, the US hopes to weaken China so that it will be unable to challenge American hegemony.

Sempra strikes LNG supply deal with Germany’s largest power producer

May 25 (Reuters) – U.S.-based Sempra Energy said on Wednesday it would sell about 2.25 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Germany‘s largest power producer, RWE AG, which is trying to wean itself off Russian gas.

U.S. LNG companies have been exporting record volumes to the European Union following sanctions on Russia after its invasion of Ukraine, which tightened supplies to an already under-supplied market.

Sempra said it would supply the gas for 15 years from its Port Arthur LNG Phase 1 project being developed in Jefferson County, Texas.

Earlier this month, the company clinched a deal to supply three million tonnes of LNG each year to Poland‘s PGNiG
