Gas Imports From Russia in Europe Have Increased Compared to the Spot Prices

As the Russian escalation in Ukraine continues, Germany has decided to suspend certification of the Nord Stream 2 Baltic Sea pipeline that would have doubled Russia’s natural gas export capacity to Germany. We discussed what this move means for the energy mix of Western Europe and what companies are exposed to the pipeline’s construction. Then, we discussed the equitable distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine: which company has distributed the most vaccines to lower income countries and which company has distributed the least, and why it matters.
