Travel › US Is Expelling 12 Russian UN Diplomats For Spying by Cousin9999(op): 11:22pm On Feb 28, 2022
The United States has asked 12 Russian United Nations diplomats to leave the US, accusing them of "espionage activities," as Russia continues its attack on Ukraine.

The Russian diplomats were asked to leave due to their alleged engagement in "activities that were not in accordance with their responsibilities and obligations as diplomats," Ambassador Richard Mills, deputy representative of the United States to the United Nations, said during a UN Security Council meeting Monday afternoon.

Russian Ambassador to the UN Vassily Nebenzia responded by saying Mills' explanation of the expulsions was "not satisfactory."

The diplomatic expulsions were announced less than a week after Russia began its attack on Ukraine, though the US said that the move had been in the works for several months. Last week, the US expelled the second-most senior diplomat at the Russian embassy in response to Moscow's expulsion of the second-ranking US diplomat in Moscow earlier in the year. The State Department announced the expulsion in the hours after Moscow began its bombardment and invasion of Ukraine.

The US Mission to the UN also said in a statement that the 12 Russian diplomats were "intelligence operatives...who have abused their privileges of residency in the US by engaging in espionage activities that are adverse to our national security."

"We are taking this action in accordance with the headquarters agreement. Today's action has been in the works for several months," US Mission spokesperson Olivia Alair Dalton said.

CNN has also reached out to the State Department for comment.

Travel › NYSE And Nasdaq Halt Trading In Russian Stocks by Cousin9999(op): 11:06pm On Feb 28, 2022
The New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Stock Market halted trading of several U.S.-listed Russian stocks this morning in the wake of tough new sanctions imposed by Washington in response to the invasion of Ukraine.

NYSE’s website said the exchange had halted the trading of Russian telecom operator Mobile TeleSystems PJSC, mining and steel company Mechel PAO and online real-estate classifieds company Cian PLC due to “regulatory concern.”

Nasdaq halted the trading of several other Russian companies, including search-engine operator Yandex NV and online retailer Ozon Holdings, citing “news pending.” Ozon, sometimes called Russia's Amazon.com, held its initial public offering on the Nasdaq in 2020.

Foreign Affairs › Major Gas Project Agreement Signed In Papua New Guinea by Cousin9999(op): 9:54pm On Feb 28, 2022
The ExxonMobil-led owners of the P’nyang gas project in Papua New Guinea have signed the major agreement with the PNG government that will underpin the project's development.

Co-venturer Santos said the signing of the gas agreement on 22 February 2022 marked "a major milestone" for the project, setting out the fiscal framework and supporting project scoping and evaluation.

P’nyang gas will be delivered through new upstream facilities in Western Province in north-west PNG and link to the existing PNG LNG export facility near Port Moresby.

Santos said up to 5% of P’nyang gas produced will be made available to support the government’s electrification efforts in Western Province or another agreed location.

No specific fiscal terms of the gas agreement were disclosed by Santos, but the Australian company — which acquired Oil Search in late 2021 — said the project will provide landowner benefits under a benefit sharing agreement to be negotiated in the future.

In addition, the project will create local and regional jobs and business opportunities, provide training and skills development opportunities and help build stronger communities, added Santos.

The operator ExxonMobil said in a statement the timing of the P’nyang development is proposed for it to follow the Total-led Papua LNG project.

P’nyang would provide about four years of additional construction activity after Papua LNG, and drive economic benefits for the country and participating provinces, said the US supermajor.

“On behalf of ExxonMobil and the other co-venturers, I thank the PNG national government along with the government of Western Province for their partnership in moving the P’nyang project forward,” said Liam Mallon, president, ExxonMobil Upstream Oil and Gas.

“The P’nyang project gas agreement marks a significant milestone and underscores the intent of all stakeholders to set a clear framework toward the P’nyang project’s future development.”

Foreign Affairs › Guyana's 1st Utility-scale Wind Project by Cousin9999(op): 9:41pm On Feb 28, 2022
The Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) for the Hope Wind Farm project on the East Coast Demerara has been approved.

The Hope Wind Farm will be the first large scale wind energy facility to be constructed in Guyana and the approval of the impact assessment paves the way for the issuance of an environmental permit for the project.

In September of 2018, Hope Energy Development (HED) submitted an application for an environmental authorisation to construct and operate a wind farm. The project proposes the construction of four wind turbines along the coast at Hope Beach, outboard of the Lowland/Hope to Ann’s Grove Villages and two additional wind turbines in the Chapman’s Grove area, 2km further to the South East of Hope Beach.

According to a public notice on the website of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) the project’s EIA fully complied with the Terms and Scope outlined by the agency in consideration of the submissions made by members of the public and adequately address the views and feedback expressed by members of the public and other stakeholders during consultations and the statutory 60-day public review period last year.

The Environmental Assessment Board (EAB) approved the project’s ESIA, which the EPA says has adequately assessed the potential adverse effects or risks posed by the project, and the mitigation plan proposes appropriate and adequate measures to minimize the aforementioned.

During the initial studies, the HED discovered that wind power is stronger during the evening hours and at its lowest during the day. A decision was then taken to incorporate a solar element into the project as well. The solar farm is expected to provide 20 megawatts of power.

The approved ESIA states that while wind farms present a risk of harm to residents due to wind turbines falling over or parts of rotor blades breaking off and being thrown some distance, they would be complying with the World Bank environmental and safety guidelines for the wind industry which advises a minimum safety offset distance of 1.5 times the maximum height of a wind turbine in order to achieve acceptable levels of safety risk.

The wind farm is slated to generate over 50GWh of electricity per year that will be delivered to the Guyana Power and Light’s (GPL) grid and will provide an alternative to Guyana’s reliance on fossil fuels for power generation, and its associated emission of carbon dioxide and other pollutants. The power purchase agreement with the Guyana Power and Light (GPL) but once this is done, it would mark the end of the feasibility aspect of the project. The plant is planned for commissioning some 18 to 24 months following the signing of the PPA, and may occur as early as the third quarter of 2023.

1. The main people crying about this are Arabs. Their society, culture, and religion are terribly violent and racist. They should just be quiet and be thankful anyone defends them.

2. Being surprised that white media is racist is like being shocked that water is wet.

3. This isn't about Ukraine. It's about controlling Russia. And they need to be controlled.

4. Russians and Ukrainians are central Asian, not European.

5. Russia lost. lol

There are over 100 identified ethnic groups in Russia. Of them, 41 are legally recognized as “Indigenous small-numbered peoples of the North, Siberia, and the Far East.”
Though Russia’s Indigenous peoples only make up 0.2% of the total population, or 250,000 people total, they inhabit about 2/3 of Russia’s territory.

Foreign Affairs › White House And EU Announce Expulsion Of ‘selected Russian Banks’ From SWIFT by Cousin9999(op): 1:18am On Feb 27, 2022
The White House, along with France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and Canada, announced Saturday evening that they would expel certain Russian banks from SWIFT, the high-security network that connects thousands of financial institutions around the world, pledging to “collectively ensure that this war is a strategic failure for (Russian President Vladimir) Putin.”

“This will ensure that these banks are disconnected from the international financial system and harm their ability to operate globally,” they wrote in a joint statement released by the White House, also pledging “restrictive measures that will prevent the Russian Central Bank from deploying its international reserves in ways that undermine the impact of our sanctions,” and restricting the sale of “golden passports” that allow Russian oligarchs to avoid the brunt of sanctions already levied.

US and European officials have also discussed targeting the Russian Central Bank with sanctions, according to two people familiar with the talks, a step without precedent for an economy of Russia’s size.

No final decisions have been made, the people said, and the structure of the sanctions under discussion remains unclear.

But the moves made for a dramatic escalation of the West’s attempts to isolate and punish Putin, and appeared to come together quickly over the past hours and days. At a press conference Thursday, Biden was pressed on why he had avoided removing Russia from SWIFT or sanctioning Putin personally. Less than 48 hours later, he’d done both.
