🇪🇺🇷🇺 TARIFFS ON RUSSIA: EU countries will have to pay €430 per ton for importing Russian fertilizers from Russia by 2030
European MEPs voted to increase customs duties on fertilizers, as well as agricultural supplies from Russia. According to the European Commission, duties will be increased gradually in order to make supplies from Russia unprofitable in the near future.
Thus, in 2025-26, the border import tariff for fertilizers will be €40 - €45 per ton, but will increase to €430/ton by 2030.
Ironically European countries sharply increased fertilizer imports from Russia in the second half of 2022. Europe tries to finally destroy its farmers.

@MyLordBebo Russia is likely the world's largest fertilizer exporter in 2025, based on 2024 data showing over 20% global share ($13.4B) and a 12% export increase to the EU in January 2025. China’s exports surged 44.5% in Q1 2025 (7.16M tons), but restrictions on urea and phosphate limit its lead. Canada and the U.S. are major exporters, but no 2025 data confirms they surpassed Russia. Uncertainty remains due to limited full-year 2025 data.

Basashi is the term for horse sashimi. The overwhelming majority of sashimi is fish.
ANOTHER SHIPMENT 💔🐴 At 4:05 AM, another export flight of horses left the Winnipeg airport & is now en route to Japan for slaughter. With the windchill, it was -30°C, yet horses were left in crates on the tarmac for hours. Canada must END this now! #CdnPoli

My battery is low and it's getting dark." These haunting words, sent from 225 million miles across the void, became the poignant farewell of NASA's Opportunity rover—affectionately known as Oppy—before it fell silent forever. Launched in 2003 and landing on Mars on January 25, 2004, Opportunity was designed for a modest 90-day (90-sol) mission to search for signs of ancient water. Instead, this plucky little solar-powered explorer defied every expectation, outlasting its warranty by a staggering factor of 55, roaming the Red Planet for nearly 15 Earth years (5,498 days / 5,352 sols). It traversed over 45 kilometers (28 miles), survived brutal dust storms, climbed crater rims, and delivered groundbreaking discoveries: definitive evidence of past liquid water, minerals formed in water, and hints that parts of ancient Mars could have supported microbial life.But in June 2018, a massive planet-encircling dust storm engulfed Mars, blocking sunlight for months and starving Oppy's solar ...
