23 Sept 2022 - Liz truss missing
She was in the House of Commons by Kwasi Kwarteng’s side as he announced his emergency Budget on Friday, supportively nodding and smiling, but she scuttled out of the chamber as soon as the leader of the opposition had responded.
[MRT: Described in a separate post: What the heck happened on Friday 23-09-2022 that Liz Truss scuttled out of the chamber and went into hiding?. She was missing 3 days before and 3 days after. During this time she wrote supposedly a message to Blinken "It is done". What was it about? Was she asked to stop it or was she reporting progress or giving advance warning? This behavior could be connected to other events which happened on the same day, see here: 222 - The Classified Briefing - Cavoli, Nuland, Kahl, Douglas Sims II on 20-09-2022]

participation of PM @MorawieckiM, PM of Denmark Mette Frederiksen & @prezydentpl, @AndrzejDuda. The Baltic Pipe is a strategic infrastructure project aimed at creating a new gas supply corridor on the European market. Instead of NOR PM a NOR Energy minister.
[MRT: So Denmark, Poland likely did not know. PL PM and DK PM were there but NOR PM switched with energy minister to attend some very lo event while his defence minister Gram spends whole day of Nordstream attack at the NOR Navy HQ.]

094 - The USA de-escalates possible Russian nuclear response even before Nordstream is hit, NATO protect Trans-Atlantic alliance afterwards
