Kremlin suggests Europe is struggling to mobilise its arms industries for Ukraine

MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Kremlin suggested on Wednesday that many European countries were starting to face difficulties when it came to mobilising their military-industrial industries to help Ukraine.Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov was responding to a question about the French and German arms industries, but he did not name any European countries himself or say how or why they were allegedly struggling to help Ukraine.French President Emmanuel Macron said last week that work continued regarding military supplies for Ukraine while German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced a 1.4 billion euro ($1.53 billion) military aid package for Kyiv by the end of 2024.Peskov suggested there were problems though."This mobilisation of capabilities for ephemeral goals is contrary to the interests of the economic development of these countries, and clearly the capacities of these countries are not designed for such efforts," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov […]

Fall is in full swing, but it’s not too soon to look ahead to winter, especially one that could feel considerably different than last year’s dominated by El Niño.A weak La Niña is expected to develop ahead of the season and influence temperatures, precipitation, and by extension, even snow across the United States.La Niña is a natural climate pattern that influences global weather marked by cooler than average ocean temperatures in the equatorial Pacific. The effects on weather are most pronounced during the winter months in the Northern Hemisphere and have a much weaker influence in the summer.Last winter was the warmest on record for the Lower 48 because it was dominated by La Niña’s counterpart El Niño in a world also warming due to fossil fuel pollution.The prolonged warmth prevented many heavy snow events in the Northeast and Midwest and created […]
