Germany Alone To Control Russian Gas Pipeline As France Caves, Plus More Energy News
Germany alone will decide whether to enforce EU law on its new gas pipeline with Russia after France caved in during last-minute talks on the issue.

A 21st-century take on Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels’ Communist Manifesto was introduced in the form of a nonbinding resolution introduced by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.). The resolution effectively does nothing other than express the sense that Congress should pass a so-called “Green New Deal” whose wholly unattainable goals would almost certainly wreak havoc on the economy and drive the United States further into debt. —RealClearMarkets, 9 February 2019
