Yes, the election will be interesting. A left-wing government with the Social Democrats, the Left Party, and the Green Party would be really bad for the defense and support for Ukraine. Instead, the focus will be placed on the Israel/Palestine conflict, which is uninteresting in comparison. My ranking of the parties:

Most reliable in their support for the Swedish defense, NATO, and Ukraine.

1. The Moderates, the Liberals, the Christian Democrats, the Centre Party
2. The Social Democrats, the Sweden Democrats
3. The Green Party
4. The Left Party

I think the foreign policy looks worrying after the election. If the Social Democrats get an outright majority together with the Left Party and the Green Party, the focus will instead be placed on Israel rather than supporting Ukraine. It will be a similar situation as in Spain, which is really bad. Then we might lose perhaps the most Ukraine-friendly party, the Liberals. The Sweden Democrats have been good at pushing out unreliable people who have instead ended up in the crazy party AfD, which is far from the parliament and political influence. No, I am more worried about the “peace advocates” in the left movement, who seem unlimited in number when you are on, for example, Facebook. The Tidö parties are far ahead of the left alternative when it comes to support for Ukraine.

The Russian bastards get the opportunity to truly learn the meaning of FAFO.

Police cordons and silence have dominated the anniversary of the massacre at Tiananmen Square in Beijing in 1989. This is reported by AP.
According to AFP, the police in Hong Kong removed a few protesters who had defied the ban on gathering to commemorate the between 400 and 2,000 – no one knows – young people who were killed by the military when they went out that spring evening 37 years ago to demand freedom of speech.
Several countries commemorated the anniversary on their social media. “No censorship can erase the past,” wrote US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning responded to him, according to AP:
“Stop using democracy as an excuse to interfere.”

Already today, the excess mortality rate is high in the US for those working in the coal industry (mainly coal mines), and there are studies showing a reduced average lifespan of between 8-16 years.

The only sensible thing is rather to reduce coal use to a minimum, but Trump probably wants to go back to the good old 1800s. Soon he might reintroduce coal-fired steam locomotives as well.

“US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that 700 million dollars will go to the struggling coal industry – using a crisis law from the 1950s, the Defense Production Act. AFP reports this. According to the announcement, the money will be used to keep 14 coal power plants and 42 mines operating in ten states, as well as to build new facilities. The investment is part of Trump’s policy to increase coal use, among other things to save thousands of jobs. He has also rolled back several environmental regulations and called climate change a hoax. The American coal industry has had a tough time and has decreased from accounting for 45 percent of electricity production in the US in 2010 to about 15 percent two years ago, reports TT.”
