at the expense of European security. Let’s look at the numbers. In July 2026, vessels linked to G7 countries and their partners carried 36.2% of Russia’s seaborne crude oil exports. This was the fourth consecutive month of growth and the highest figure since July 2025.

🇪🇺 EU significantly increases gas imports from Russia. France leads the way — Welt The EU plans to stop importing Russian liquefied natural gas from 2027. However, these supplies have increased recently. Moscow's income from the sale of LNG has increased to 60 million euros per day.

The system for tap water collapsed in the city of Tyumen, Russia. At least using tap water might bring you into the hospital or worse, because it is contaminated. Now, Russians are supplied by tankers and Russians are rushing to them like starving people in 3rd World countries during civil war.

My low end estimate of the number of jobs lost at Wildberries locations just at the warehouses is 40 120. These can easily go to 45 000 and more as I base the Shushari site on how many were reportedly at the weekend shift when it caught fire in 2024.
