It is official: Elon Musk acquires Twitter for 44bln $ At first glance seems like a nightmare. A super wealthy businessman possessing a powerful media to manipulate opinion. ! And his first actions since last night as new owner to announce extensive reduction…
🔥 Update
Elon Musk is taking over as "acting" CEO of Twitter.
He already fired Parag Agrawal CEO , Vijaya Gadde, head of legal, policy & trust; Ned Segal CFO & Sean Edgett, general counsel.
But the most important action is that preliminary he seems to be serious about freedom of speech. His first tweet was "the bird is free"...
Already today morning we received reports from several journalists, war correspondents & politicians that the ban on their account is lifted!
He is going to examine previously banned accounts to check for which "crime" they have been "silenced".
No matter if you like Musk in control of media the chance that he will undo part of the harm done last years by the Main West Mass Media & Platforms by silencing and banning any alternative opinion or narrative gives optimism.

⚡️ Breaking news
At 04.30am today morning air-drones and sea drones attacked the Russian fleet in Sevastopol. The exact damages are not confirmed yet but Ukrainians are celebrating that even flagships were hit.
While story is developing very concerning and serious statement officially issued by Ministry of Defence of Russia:
9 air - drones and 4 sea - drones were used. Some were hit by Russia but not all.
In the attack apart from Ukraine helped UK advisors.
Also UK participated in the planning and execution of the explosion of pipelines Nordstream 1,2.
This is Huge Escalation of War and if Ukrainian social media information is confirmed that even the Russian flagship Makarov is hit we do not dare to think what could be the response of Russian Federation.
We remind that after Ukraine hit the Bridge in Krimaia all Ukrainian energy infrastructure was bombed for 2 weeks causing Ukraine to lose 45-50% of their energy infrastructure. Cities in Ukraine are currently in the dark several hrs per day.

Mayor of Kiev is requesting blankets and generators.
After 2 weeks of continuous bombing Ukraine has lost 45-50% of its energy infrastructure. Black-outs and electricity cuts are constant every day in all Ukrainian cities. That means heating is also unavailable and winter is coming.
If Ukraine does not sit in the table soon to negotiate peace there will be an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophy in Ukrainian cities as million of people face the danger of freezing.

🔥 Update
We will be providing continuous updates as this attack to Sevastopol terminal and Russian fleet could develop to awful results for humanity.
The number of sea drones utilized by Ukraine is 7 and not 4 that we reported earlier. Air drones was correctly reported from the beginning as 9.
The claims of the Ukrainian media that 4 ships are sunk including the Russian Flafship "Admiral Makarov" are not confirmed.
Instead Russians sources indicate that the impact of the hit is much smaller than Ukrainians [including Geraschchenko] claim:
Minesweeper Ivan Golubets was hit but it is afloat. The local sources in Sevastopol also clarified that the Admiral Makarov frigate also received minimal surface damage from shrapnel as a result of the detonation of the naval drone ammunition.
“The preparation of the terrorist act in Sevastopol and the training of servicemen of the Ukrainian 73rd special Center for naval operations were carried out under the guidance of British specialists.”
“The specialists of the British Navy who were preparing the Armed Forces of Ukraine for the terrorist attack in Sevastopol are involved in the undermining of the Nord Stream gas pipelines.” the Russian Defence Ministry claimed.
We will keep you updated.

After the attack to the fleet of Russia in Sevastopol today Russian Federation is withdrawing from the worldwide achieved "grain agreement".
We remind the agreement achieved between Ukraine and Russia in summer was of tremendous importance.
US, UN, Ukraine and EU desperately needed to avoid worldwide food crisis.
As we wrote from the morning although unpleasant news for a Saturday evening we are on the verge of huge negative developments and some politician need to urgently find a solution before we witness unprecedented events next few months.

RF withdrew from the grain deal yesterday after the attack by drones to the Russian fleet in Sevastopol.
RF claimed 4 basic reasons:
1. The grain was provided by RF in order to reach the poor people of Africa. However only 3% has reached Africa. The rest is still being handled by EU and US for their own needs and purposes.
2. In a topic connected with the "grain subject" a great precentage of the fertilizers provided by RF which were intented for poor countries remains blocked in EU ports. More precisely 80% of 300.ooo tonnes of products remain in warehouses in Latvia and in ports in Estonia, Nederlands and Belgium. We remind RF from beginning was promised that if they agree on 'grain deal' this issue would be resolved.
3. The navy sea corridor agreed for the grain deal was "utilised" to achieve results for Ukraine in yesterday drone attack.
4. RF issued a statement that UK is part of yesterday's attack in Russian fleet.
In parallel RF is preparing to provide its own grain to poor countries.

RF exited the grain deal. Significant reactions already:
USA President J.Biden called the move outrageous and emphasized it will intensify world hunger.
Josep Borell high representative of the EU Foreign affairs asked RF to change decision.
President of Ukraine Zelenski stated: "Take Russia out of G20".
USA secretary of state Antony Blinken asked all parties to continue implementing the deal.
Gabrielus Landbergis Foreign Affair Minister of Lithuania pointed out "this is a blackmail".
However noone commented neither the fact that grain is not reaching poor countries while exports from Ukraine are ongoing since 22nd July, nor the fact Ukraine exploited the release of the sea blockage by RF & the grain corridor to attack Kerch Bridge & Sevastopol fleet.
Also noone commented RF serious accusations for participation of UK in yesterday & Nordstream pipeline attacks.

Big tech stocks keep falling. What is going on?
A year ago the most undisputed statement in financial markets would have been the constant rise of the Big Tech Stock value.
A year later tech giants have seen their shares fall 30% y.o.y.
Microsoft & Alphabet lost 280$ bln on wednesday after presenting q3 results.
Meta had 2nd consecutive Q of shrinking revenues.
Amazon is forecasting weak christmas growth expectation senting its share value 12% down on Friday.
Netflix, Apple, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet lost so far 2.5$ trln in 2022.
How can it be? First of all tech shares are the most pumped up ones in the market so despite all these losses still their current price cannot even be considered as a cheap one. Second and most important the high inflation in US and EU is the most significant factor as customer spending drops. Also higher interest rates affect tech companies.

Hard to believe video from Prague demonstrations the last 2 days in Czech Republic.
Many thousand people in the streets of Prague demonstrate against their government policies and basically against austerity, increasing inflation and high energy prices.
However it is impressive that this time openly many took a clear stance in favor of Russia and against EU sanctions on the subject. "We know who is our enemy and who is not" the crowd claims.
You cannot believe it?

Last few years the floods in Pakistan is a huge challenge which keeps deteriorating the lives of millions.
The figures of the impact of 2022 floods are shocking. And although mainstream media would report on this with much less priority keep an eye because this is directly related with the climate change consequences and these phenomena might become worse in future.
Over 2 million houses have been impacted by the devastating floods in Pakistan.
Some 13,115 km of roads were damaged, and 436 bridges were partially damaged or destroyed.
In total, 1,700 people have died! And 12,867 have suffered injuries.
The currently available data indicate that around 7.9 million people may be temporarily displaced.
About 20.6 million people and 650,000 flood-affected refugees and host communities require humanitarian assistance.

Lets remember what Joe Biden was saying when he was a US Senator about NATO expansion to Baltics.
That this would be normal to provoke the extreme and justified RF outrage and a conflict.
Guess times change and so do people.
