With @MarcoSiddi (@FIIA_fi), Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity

Follow the highlights here!

"Energy security is traditionally defined as a government's efforts to ensure energy supply at a good price"

- Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity

/2
"The EU adopts a comprehensive approach, going beyond the notion of uninterrupted supply and affordability to highlight issues of sustainability and environmental concerns"

- Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity

/3
"While #COVID19 has posed challenges, foreign policy dynamics have made unclear how sustainability and environment concerns will factor into recovery"

- Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity

/4
"World Population is expected to increase (on current trends) from 7.4bn to more the 9bn in 2040. It is not only a growing population, but a rapidly urbanising population"

- Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity

/5
"Global energy needs will expand by 40% by 2040, adding the equivalent of another China or India to the global demand"

- Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity

/6
"With the increasing dependence of OECD countries on oil local to Turkey, Turkey's role has increased as a diversification option for Europe to diversify its energy supply from Russia"

- Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity

/7
After the excellent presentation of Suhnaz Yilmaz from @kocuniversity, we turn to @MarcoSiddi from @FIIA_fi to give his perspective on the issue of energy politics in the Black Sea region

/8
"Turkish gas demand is significant, but the EU's import dependence is substantial: Russia plays a very important role in this"

- @MarcoSiddi from @FIIA_fi

/9
"Ukraine is a consumer, but also an important transit country. In the 2000s, 80% of Russian gas exports went through Ukraine. Now, due to NordStream, this number is still as high as 50%"

- @MarcoSiddi from @FIIA_fi

/10
"The 2014 Ukraine Crisis and the state of conflict led to new concerns in Europe about the security of energy supply from Russia"

- @MarcoSiddi from @FIIA_fi

/11
On that note, this #VIADUCT_EU Guest Lecture moves into the Q&A section

/12
That's it for this #VIADUCT_EU Guest Lecture, but we're not done yet!

Tune in later for another at 16:00!

Niger state shares borders with Zamfara, kebbi, Kaduna & Benin Republic. Terrorists from Niger republic and Burkina faso easily move money and arms across the borders of Kebbi, Zamfara and Benin R into Niger state. According to UN over 900,000 people have been displaced in B'Faso https://t.co/65YEMJhqDp


Niger, Mali and Burkina faso are weak countries populated by Shell terrorists who have now found a safe haven in the forests in Kaduna and Niger state. Birin Gwari, Mokwa forest, Nanati forests, Kanji lake areas.

No decent human resides permanently in forests.

We are facing both external and internal threats from these weak and failed countries we are surrounded with. As a senator you know that a FG police system with less than 300k officers can't actively police the landmass and borders in the North.
Form your state police now!

You and other senators should scrap the FG police system and devote the unaudited security votes and constituency allowance to policing your corridors and forests. Let the airforce bomb them and put your rangers in the forests. Issue an ultimatum for those in the forests to leave

You are all living in a dream if you think the current police structure will become efficient overnight.
Budget, Personnel, Technology, Equipment, Surveillance..It's impossible.
Form your state and community police and flush out the terrorists.
"MLs" do support the proletariat of Xinjiang & have the whole time. People like @Tursunali_7 & @GulnarNorthwest (and many others) who show the world the real Xinjiang via their everyday videos.

Shopkeepers like in this video below say

"Pompeo, we Xinjiang people hate you."


Or everyday working people like Zaynura Namatqari, who speak out against vicious & disgusting US lies and accusations about
