Bessent Blames UKRAINE for Driving Global Energy Prices Up
Thank You for Standing With Ukraine
https://ukrainesupportbridge.com/
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is drawing attention after linking global energy-price pressure directly to Ukraine’s decision to strike Russian energy assets and refined products. In this video, I break down exactly what Bessent said, why I believe his framing matters, and what was conspicuously missing from his explanation of the war and the pressure on global energy markets.
There are also major developments surrounding Ukraine’s air defense. Germany and Ukraine are finalizing the text of a major drone agreement, with new German air-defense packages expected this month. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte is also emphasizing continued allied support for Ukraine, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio says negotiations are underway over licensing Ukraine to produce its own interceptors—but warns that production would take years to become a meaningful solution.
We also examine Ukraine’s growing warning about Russian airspace. Ukrainian officials are now telling the International Civil Aviation Organization that increased military activity is making Russian skies increasingly dangerous for civilian aviation. And inside Ukraine, another Russian strike hit the National University of Food Technologies while approximately 160 students were reportedly in class, with students reaching shelter after the air alarm.
