BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

A co-leader of Germany's ruling Social Democratic Party (SPD), Lars Klingbeil, said on Thursday that Germany is currently facing the risk of undergoing a process of de-industrialization due to partial disruptions in supply chains, staff shortages, and soaring energy prices.

"Let's not delude ourselves: the danger of de-industrialization in Germany is real. Supply chains are partially disrupted, and we are facing a shortage of specialists and high energy prices. That is why some companies decide to make investments, not in Germany's favor," Klingbeil told the German newspaper, Welt.  

The politician added that certain key players in some of Germany's crucial industries were already hinting they were ready to relocate to the US.

The EU's major economies, of which Germany is part, have been plunging into a downward spiral ever since the bloc initiated a series of sanctions against Moscow. 

Like many other countries of the EU, Germany has been seeking alternatives to cheap Russian gas - and it is doing so amid the constant risk it would run out of fuel reserves.

As EU states scramble to find a bloc-wide solution to soaring energy costs, some are anticipating massive recessions ahead, with a 41.9% jump in energy prices resulting in a hike in consumer prices, and reached 10.7% in October compared to 9.9% in previous month of September.

Several European companies are obliged to comply with strict energy-saving measures to further avoid the consumption of gas, causing many companies to cut production or shut their businesses down.
