Last update: 9 hours agoDrug Interdiction: India’s Narcotics Control Bureau seized 31.5 kg of Captagon tablets hidden inside a commercial chapati-cutter in Delhi, with the shipment reportedly headed for Jeddah—an early sign of how West Asia’s “superhuman” stimulant trade is moving through new transit routes. Energy Security: The US is backing new gas infrastructure across the Western Balkans, including projects involving Montenegro, to cut reliance on Russian supply and strengthen Adriatic/eastern Mediterranean routes. EU Accession Momentum: Cyprus reaffirmed support for Montenegro’s EU bid, pointing to a new Brussels working group to draft Montenegro’s accession treaty. Carbon Costs Pressure: CBAM is already disrupting regional electricity trading—reported liquidity drops and wider price gaps are raising concerns that the carbon border tax may slow decarbonization and renewables uptake. Montenegro Watch: Recent coverage also flags Montenegro’s ongoing energy build-out and EU talks, but the week’s biggest “just happened” items are the Captagon bust and the US gas push.
