The word was not traditionally used in this way at all. For monarchs, sure. For government positions involving expertise in one particular area? That's a very modern thing.

Didn't Germany move from Russian gas and oil to coal?

I can see that. Sort of a "now or never" thing for Russia.

Kdramas are also heavily monitored and influenced by the government. It’s one of the issues we have here is that kdramas will often come in waves from government incentives

Nothing like war to make serious changes to a nation's infrastructure. Though typically it's because they're rebuilding...

Using the word “Czar” essentially gives that person a very important title that has ancient origins. It’s basically tradition
Edit: Okay folks, I get it. I made a mistake in connecting the term with modern-day titles. Put down your pitchforks already :/

Eu citizen Along up : no one ever use the term anymore for obvious reasons so I don't know why they thought it Was 1) relevant 2) a good idea.
Unless because it's Russia related they decided to use another Russian word to stay on the thematic. Which would be quite pitiful imo..

Because it's an English word that means exactly what this guy is - someone govt appointed who has responsibility for a certain policy area. (In addition to the other meaning of Russian nobility)
It's a news headline, so brevity is key. As opposed to saying "Frans Timmermans, Executive Vice President of the European Commission for the European Green Deal and European Commissioner for Climate Action", you can say EU climate czar.

I really wonder how feasible it would be to get a heat pump for the old RV my husband and I are currently living in. It needs a complete revamping of the power system anyways, since it was made in the 90s and charges the 'house batteries' at a snail's pace. We plan to add solar to the roof, and if we can find a way to use the propane heating and generator less it would save us quite a bit of money... Heat pumps are great, and even if we can't get one for the RV, we plan to have one for whatever home we can buy/build in the next few years.

That was Putin's rationale too - he expected that Europe won't deny itself access to Russia's gas, and also renewable energy was growing anyway, so that leverage would disappear eventually
