☆ Why Greece Is Betting Big on American Gas
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-31 | by ( Max Bearak | Hilary Swift | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: 1 min

When a withering financial crisis forced Greece to rethink its economy a decade ago, it bet big on green power. Since then, Greece’s energy transition has been so swift “it almost feels utopian,” one Greek environmentalist said. Mountainous ridgelines and arid islands are covered in wind turbines and solar panels that today provide nearly two-thirds of the nation’s electricity.But now Greece is deliberately pivoting back toward fossil fuels, just not to burn at home. This time it’s betting that it can become one of Europe’s main suppliers of natural gas, with much of it shipped from the United States. Both Greek and European Union subsidies have funded new pipelines that crisscross the country and connect to a brand-new import terminal that will send gas to a broad swath of Central and Eastern Europe for decades to come.

Partisan news media’s reaction to the historic conviction of former President Donald J. Trump was swift. Conservative websites and commentators blasted the verdict as a sham, intensifying and escalating the attacks on the prosecution and the judge that they lobbed throughout the seven-week criminal trial in Manhattan. Several websites misleadingly referred to the trial as “rigged” and “corrupt.”Liberal outlets, though, couldn’t quite agree on what to make of the verdict, even if they broadly welcomed it. While some mocked Mr. Trump for the potential loss of his right to vote in November’s election, several outlets also called the verdict “unsatisfying” and potentially “irrelevant.”

There are two ways to wire money: through a bank or through a wire service. How wire transfers workThe process of initiating a wire transferWire transfers typically come in two forms: a transfer between banks or through a money service, like Western Union. In general, a bank account wire transfer tends to cost less than using a service like Western Union. A wire transfer is a secure, electronic transfer of funds from one bank account to another. It's always good practice to review the recipient's information before initiating a wire transfer, and only send money to people you trust because it's difficult to reverse or cancel a transfer.
