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.

๐ŸŽฏ Throwback Sunday session

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.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Update
Brazilian presidential elections

LULA 50.5%
BOLSONERO 49.5%

No prediction can be made whem we wake up tomorrow who will be the president

And .. if the one to lose in... inches ... will accept the result...
Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva wins in a tight contest the second round of Brazilian election on Sunday with 50,90% versus Bolsonaroโ€™s 49.10%.

He represents the workers party of Brazil and promised to fight social inequality. He got a bit more than 60 mln votes.

โ€œThis isnโ€™t a victory of mine or the Workersโ€™ Party... Itโ€™s the victory of a democratic movement that formed above political parties, personal interests and ideologies so that democracy came out victorious,โ€ were Lula s first words few hrs ago after results were announced in front of his supporters in Sao Paulo.

Bolsonero has not accepted publicly the result yet.

Finland could place Nuclear Weapons in the borders with Russia if it is accepted in NATO.

NATO & Western leaders have completely lost their mind!

In the application of Finland to join NATO & in the discussions of Finland PM Sanna Marin there is NOT included any restrictions or opt outs for nuclear weapons...

The Finnish PM and her government are ok with the prospect of their country hosting nuclear missiles that could reach Russia capital in less than 10 minutes.

In such a way RF would be helpless to have any military resistance to any NATO plans.

Do we need to state that Russia can never accept this?

Do we need to state that a new conflict will start in Europe?

Due to neutrality maintained by Finland till now RF has demilitiralized all northern borders as a sign of good neighboorhood.

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez AOC is one of the most known congresswomen in the governing Democratic party in US.

Her townhall was interrupted by young men claiming she is participating in the Biden administration decisions to send more weapons and fuel up the war in Ukraine.

Given the serious escalations currently in this conflict in this part of war more and more people and politicians in US start to understand that playing with fire (like nuclear) will only lead to unecessary for everyone catastrophy.

Every war finishes with peace settlement. Politicians,Take your seats on the peace table ASAP.

Time for people and governments to stop fueling the war.

Huge new troubles , this time of criminal nature for the EC president Ursula Von der Layen.

Currently she put as a target to destroy all Europe with sanctions that hurt Europeans much more than stopped any war. Before that she seems to have been involved in inappropriate conduct with pharmaceutical companies during COVID crisis.

More specifically seems she personally handled some of the negotiations although a member of her family is director in one of the pharmas which is part of PFIZER which received significant contracts in bln $

To make matters worse she agreed to buy with EU money the equivalent of 10 doses of COVID vaccine per European citizen which also raises significant questions.

Check the video from European parliament and the article below:
