This newsletter is the 4th published in 2025 and the 38th since the Russian aggression against Ukraine. Green is associated with spring, renewal, impulsive spirit.

His motives are far from peaceful when he allies himself with the Assad clan that has martyred the Syrians since 1970 or the regime of the Mullahs who persecute his youth and any opposition since 1979. The sun is green in Ukraine after the merciless war delivered by Russia since 2022- an NGO supported by the German and Swedish governments and an environmental defense foundation has been able to quantify the Russian debt. In the European Union, the CSRD directive applied since 2024 encourages transparency of companies' information to respect the planet. We hope that the greenwashing practiced by some companies does not pollute the negotiations for a lasting peace in Ukraine…
