New Secretary of State cleans up climate policy: Must use our strengths

US incoming Secretary of State Marco Rubio is cleaning up the State Department's previous work on climate and "cultural issues". This is reported by AFP.

- We must use our strengths and get rid of climate policies that harm America, says Rubio.

According to The Guardian, Donald Trump and his administration see oil as the basis for American "energy dominance", and want to increase extraction at the expense of electricity and solar energy. Critics say they risk damaging both the green transition and the US economy.

British minister to Putin about suspected spy ship: "We see you"

A British warship has shadowed a Russian spy ship that passed through the country's territorial waters. This is what Defense Secretary John Healey told parliament on Wednesday, AFP reports. It was the second time that the same ship has been tracked since November.

Haley addressed the Russian president directly in her speech.

– I want President Putin to hear this message too: We see you, we know what you are doing and we will not hesitate to take strong measures to protect our country, he said.

According to the defense, the ship was stationary over “critical underwater infrastructure” before heading further into the North Sea, writes Sky News.

Security around the Baltic Sea
Sources: No evidence that submarine cables were cut intentionally

The Central Criminal Police in Finland has so far found no evidence that the tanker Eagle S intentionally carried out the cable cuts. This is stated by five sources familiar with the investigation to Helsingin Sanomat.

In addition, a source within the state administration, with insight into the matter, confirms the information to Hufvudstadsbladet.

Since it has not yet been possible to prove any intent with the incident – ​​in which Eagle S cut a number of important submarine cables in the Baltic Sea – it will most likely be assessed as an accident, the newspaper writes according to TT.

The police are examining, among other things, the ship's computers and the crew's phones to investigate whether anyone on the crew caused the cable break.
