Latvia Military Draft and German Gas Nationalization

Reports from Riga, Latvia, indicate the reinstatement of the military draft and energy-saving measures in grocery stores. Meanwhile, the German government's acquisition of gas importer Uniper is clarified; while reported as "nationalization" by NPR, the hosts explain it was a buyout of the Finnish company Fortum's shares. The move is a response to Russia cutting off gas deliveries to Europe.
