This comes weeks after a planned counter offensive went into effect, but on the heels of significant gains made against Russian troops in Ukraine\'s northeast, which saw Kyiv recapture Izium and and the strategic rail hub of Lyman. The battle for Kherson will represent a significant bellwether in the current phase of the Ukraine conflict. Russia\'s best troops and equipment are stationed there. If they dissolve, as have other fronts in recent weeks, not only does this have significant implications for Russia itself but the capture of advanced Russian equipment by Kyiv\'s forces will represent a larger and more significant transfer than nearly anything NATO has provided up to this point. 00:00:00 Peter Zeihan 00:02:16 Ben Hodges 00:11:30 End \\u2714 https://geonow.substack.com/ \\u2705 Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3slupxs \\U0001f30d https://beacons.ai/GEONOW #Peterzeihan #benhodges #kherson Ukraine Push Back In Kherson, a Turning Point? | Peter Zeihan Source https://twitter.com/PeterZeihan\\n\\xa0\\nThis is Why China will never overtake the U.S | Peter Zeihan\\nhttps://youtu.be/TUeQoBdfBg0 \\nGEONOW\\n49.1K subscribers\\nIncreasingly over the past decade, and more recently the past 3-5 years, the western fear of China has grown, to say the least. In many ways, this fear is justified. China is buying ports, oil fields, agricultural land, military outposts and strategic trade points around the globe, but especially in areas around US allies. They have a strong military, and an equally strong economy, they have no qualms killing their population and influencing other country\\u2019s governments to achieve their goals. They are unabashedly anti-democracy and they seem to be investing heavily in up and coming countries in Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. With less involvement on the world stage and the unfortunate swapping of foreign policies every 4 years in the US, it seems we\\u2019re failing to meet the Chinese threat and give it the attention it deserves because we\\u2019re too invested in problems at home. As the US leaves influence to China, they expand and eventually will overtake the US with essentially nothing to be done about their human rights abuses, which will likely continue and expand. \\u2714 https://geonow.substack.com/ \\u2705 Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3slupxs \\U0001f30d https://beacons.ai/GEONOW #Peterzeihan #chinanews #china This is Why China will never overtake the U.S | Peter Zeihan Source https://twitter.com/PeterZeihan\\n\\xa0\\nMajor Oil production Cuts in an Energy Crisis | Peter Zeihan\\nhttps://youtu.be/vdtWLCjBvNw \\nGEONOW\\n49.1K subscribers\\nhttps://zeihan.com/ The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and Russia announced yesterday that they would be cutting back daily oil production to the tune of about two million barrels per day to help shore up oil prices. I would be more concerned if OPEC wasn\'t already struggling to meet its own quotas. Chronic underinvestment and a host of technical and...other production issues have been causing significant production declines throughout OPEC member nations, particularly among African producers. Throughout much of 2022, that figure has hovered between 1 and 2 million barrels per day below OPEC production targets. Add in the rest of OPEC+ (the 13 OPEC member states and other significant oil exporters, like Russia) and that figure tips over 3 million. A reduction in target quotas might not have the lon'
