       Russians"....

       Russian oil giant Rosneft put under German trusteeship -
       Preserving while disconnecting | DW News
       --- Quote ---
       > Berlin has put the German subsidiary of Russian oil giant
       Rosneft under trusteeship. That means a federal regulator is
       taking control of one of the nation's critical refineries in the
       eastern town of Schwedt -- which is served by the Russian
       oil-pipeline Druzhba. The German-government said growing
       concerns from banks, insurers and suppliers about the refinery's
       future forced it to act now.
       > Berlin is vowing to find non-Russian sources of oil for the
       refinery.
       >
       > That announcement about Rosneft is part of a larger
       balancing-act in Berlin as it tries to preserve critical
       energy-infrastructure while disconnecting from the Russian
       supply that keeps it going.
       >
       > Another example is the natural-gas company Uniper. It was the
       largest importer of Russian gas, but is now struggling as
       Russian deliveries fall away. Now the German government is
       considering stronger measures to keep it afloat.

       Finland backs Ankara and does not want to be grouped with
       Sweden:
       Why Turkey’s Hit On Kurdish Militants In Syria & Iraq May Impact
       Finland & Sweden’s NATO Bids
       --- Quote ---
       > Turkey carried out air strikes on Kurdish militant bases in
       northern Iraq and Syria. Ankara says the Kurdistan Workers Party
       (PKK) and the Syrian Kurdish YPG militia were using the bases to
       launch attacks on Turkey. The air strikes are reportedly a
       retaliation to the November 13 explosion in Istanbul, that
       killed 6 people and injured over 80. The recent escalation of
       tensions is expected to have consequences for Finland and
       Sweden’s NATO aspirations. Will Turkish strikes on PKK impact
       Nordic nations’ NATO entry?
