Rewarding territory with a ‘peace deal’ that gives Russia land it hasn’t even captured yet sets a catastrophic precedent. This isn’t ending a war, it’s creating an autocratic playbook. America is no longer the leader of the free world.

None of what the coalition says makes sense. Focused on the economics? Coal, gas and even nuclear energy is more expensive than renewables. Reliability? Renewables are the most reliable form of energy at the moment. Underwrite more coal and gas? What a bunch of muppets! #Auspol #netzero
