    Quote Germany Seizes Assets of Russian Oil Giant Rosneft

    - Takeover of Rosneft unit marks escalation of standoff
    - Berlin aims to secure operations of key refinery in Schwedt

    ByStefan Nicola and Petra Sorge
    16 September 2022, 06:02 GMT+1Updated on16 September 2022, 11:28 GMT+1

    Germany seized the local unit of Russian oil major Rosneft PJSC as Berlin moves to take sweeping control of its energy industry, secure supplies and sever decades of deep dependence on Moscow for fuel.

    Alongside its move for the Rosneft unit, Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s administration is in advanced talks to take over Uniper SE and two other major gas importers, Bloomberg reported on Thursday. Europe’s largest economy is pressing ahead with an historic overhaul of the energy system to prevent shortages this winter.

    A decision on the next moves could come within days. The need for action is urgent with Uniper losing 100 million euros ($99.7 million) a day as it tries to replace Russian gas to maintain deliveries to local utilities and manufacturers...

    Pope comments on ‘morality’ of arming Ukraine
    The pontiff said weapons shipments can be acceptable for self-defense, but not if the intention is to “make more war”
    https://www.rt.com/news/562929-pope-...ents-morality/

    Supplying Kiev with weapons may be a morally justified thing to do under certain conditions, Pope Francis said on Thursday when asked about nations arming Ukraine.

    Speaking to journalists on his plane as he returned from a three-day trip to Kazakhstan, the pope explained that motivation played a key part in judging whether an action was morally acceptable or not.

    Selling weapons to another nation can be “morally acceptable if done under the conditions of morality,” he said. But an arms shipment “can be immoral if done with intentions of making more war” or to profit from it in some way, he added, as quoted by the Catholic News Service.

    The cause of self-defense is “not only licit, it’s also an expression of love toward one’s homeland,” the pope explained.

    Pope Francis reflected on the Catholic concept of a “just war” and how the lines were often blurred, especially since there are currently hostilities ongoing in many places. Russia served as a peacekeeper in the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan, but at the same time has engaged in military action against Ukraine, he pointed out.

    Like many other public figures, the pope condemned Russia for sending troops into Ukraine in late February, but some of his positions on the conflict angered Kiev. Ukraine’s ambassador to the Vatican, Andrey Yurash, chastised him last month for condemning the bomb assassination of Russian journalist and political commentator Darya Dugina.

    Russia has accused Ukraine of sending the suspected killer into Russia, which Kiev has denied. The pope called the bombing victim a “poor girl” and lamented how the conflict was claiming lives on all sides. Kiev has implied that Dugina, the daughter of controversial Russian philosopher Aleksandr Dugin, was killed by the Russian government in a false flag operation.

    Putin warns of more serious response in Ukraine

    Russian President Vladimir Putin has commented on Ukraine’s ongoing counteroffensive and warned of consequences for Kiev over its attempts to stage what he described as “terror attacks.”

    So far, Moscow has shown “restraint” in its reaction, Putin insisted, but he warned that this may change. The president was speaking at a press conference in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit.

    “The special military operation is not a warning of some sort, but a special military operation. We’re witnessing attempts to stage terror attacks, attempts to damage our civilian infrastructure. We respond to this with restraint, but only for the time being,” Putin stated.

    Quite recently, the Russian armed forces delivered a couple of sensitive strikes, let’s say they were a warning. If the situation continues to develop in such fashion, the response will be more serious.

    While the president did not specify which specific incidents he was referring to, over the past week the Russian military has targeted several key infrastructure sites across Ukraine.

    The president also touched on the ongoing counteroffensive launched by the Ukrainian military, which is already celebrated as a great success by Kiev and its Western backers. Before drawing any conclusions, one should wait and see “how it ends,” Putin suggested.

    Only Neutral Status Will Provide Real Security Guarantees For Ukraine, Moscow Says

    Earlier this week, Ukraine’s presidential office published a draft document outlining proposed recommendations on security guarantees for the country. Among other things, the document emphasizes Ukraine's "aspiration to join NATO."

    Ukraine will get real guarantees of security only after it returns to its neutral status, the Russian Foreign Ministry has said.
    Moscow views Kiev's security guarantees project as an attempt to receive assurance that the West will continue to provide financial and military assistance to Ukraine.
    Earlier, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on Kiev's draft plan on security guarantees, saying that by publishing it, Ukraine has confirmed its intention to join NATO. Peskov emphasized that in view of this, "it's unlikely that anyone can provide Ukraine with a greater guarantee of security than the leadership of the country itself.” He also said that Kiev's aspiration to join the Western military bloc has only made Russia's special operation in Ukraine "more relevant."
    Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev criticized Kiev's project of security guarantees, saying that its implementation will become a "prelude to World War Three".

    Moscow calls for criminal prosecution of Polish president

    Duma chairman Vyacheslav Volodin responded to Andrzej Duda’s statement on war reparations from Russia

    Polish President Andrzej Duda should be prosecuted for his statement on war reparations from Russia, the chairman of the State Duma, Russia’s lower house of parliament, Vyacheslav Volodin, said.

    In an interview published on Thursday, Duda stated that while Germany started World War II and attacked Poland, Russia “joined this war later on.” Therefore, Warsaw “should demand reparations also from Russia,” the Polish leader claimed.

    Volodin accused the Polish president of rehabilitating Nazism and of insulting the memory of those who “gave their lives for the freedom and independence of the Polish people.”

    “Russian law provides criminal penalties for such statements. It is right for the supervisory authorities to study the comment of Andrzej Duda and take appropriate measures to bring him to criminal responsibility,” he wrote on Telegram.

    Volodin also reminded of the high price the Soviet people paid for the liberation of the world from Nazism – 27 million dead.

    “Today Poland exists as a state only thanks to our country,” Volodin said.

    Duda’s comments came the day after the lower house of the Polish parliament voted to seek 1.3 trillion euros in compensation from Germany for damages incurred during the Nazi occupation. The German foreign ministry earlier said that it considered the question of wartime reparations “closed.”

    Meanwhile, Polish media reported that a ruling-party MP Jaroslaw Krajewski had called to demand 368 hectares from the Czech Republic, in compensation for what Warsaw considers the disadvantageous demarcation of the Polish-Czechoslovak border in the 1950s.

    Ukraine conflict won’t end soon – NATO

    The bloc’s secretary general says Ukraine’s counter-offensives do not promise an end to the hostilities

    The conflict between Russia and Ukraine will not be ending any time soon, despite Kiev’s “effective” counter-attack against Moscow’s troops, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg claims.

    Speaking to BBC Radio on Friday, the NATO chief said that it is “extremely encouraging to see that Ukrainian armed forces have been able to take back territory and also strike behind Russian lines.”

    However, he stressed it is important to understand that “this is not the beginning of the end of the war, we have to be prepared for the long haul.”

    Stoltenberg’s comments come after Russia announced the withdrawal of its troops from several settlements in northeastern Ukraine, including the city of Izium. Moscow maintains the step was taken to strengthen forces in Donetsk, while Kiev celebrated the Russian withdrawal as a victory.

    Last week, Stoltenberg warned that Ukraine could “cease to exist” as an independent nation unless it continues its fight against Russia, which, he claims, wants to “take control of Ukraine.”

    The secretary general reiterated calls for Western nations to continue their support for Kiev by sending more military aid, as well as supplying them with adequate uniforms for the upcoming winter, generators, and tents, among other things.

    Moscow has repeatedly urged the West to stop “pumping” Ukraine with weapons and other military hardware, insisting that it will only serve to prolong the bloodshed without changing the outcome of the conflict.
