    Interesting thread But main take out for Russia & China is nato allies are hopeless divided fractious. Biden drive to present united front to contain China as main rival doomed from get go. Russia & China alliance on other hand looks pretty solid. For now while it suits them

    Ok, folks: a lot of people are confused about *why* France would recall its ambassadors to the US and Australia over a few submarines. Here's the thing: it's not just a few submarines. For France, there's a lot at stake. 1/

    Once again the reality of planet biz vs planet politics are totally different. Investors see Russia as outstanding & extremely cheap investment & ignore the horrible politics. It’s what undermines sanctions: a planet politics attack on planet biz that resisted by our biz

    The appeal of Russian markets is eclipsing risks from Vladimir Putin’s crackdown on political rivals as the nation goes to the polls

    Russian markets also doing well because it is not China - emerging market investors have been looking for alternatives to China tech. The point that Russian stocks, after this boom, are half the price of EM average suggests local/geo-politics are not ignored by investors

    Since I wrote this YouTube has also been bullied into blocking videos. Seem while other dictators were at mercy of social media Kremlin has effective & successfully blocked oppositions access. Russia such big mkts gives it clout over tech giants

    Turkmenistan’s state broadcaster doesn’t want people watching this footage of the president playing the keyboard Kraftwerk-style, singing with his lumbering galoot of a grandson and then doing some cringe fist-bumping. DO NOT retweet this please

    Macron did not recall the UK ambassador, apparently, according to sources close to the Elysee, "for the same reason that when the cooking in a restaurant is not first class, you sack the chef, not the guy who washes the dishes."

    Sanctions have failed. West Corps are too invested in Russia mkt. Eu is. Energy dependent. Putin gets all of this. Everything else is noise.

    Google has escalated its complicity with Putin’s brutal regime again, now blocking YouTube as we feared they might. Every autocrat is watching this. A horrible new precedent is set

    I’d love to see Sveta get the prize but Greta is the one that really deserves it.

    Bookmakers ranked Sviatlana as the 4th on the list of likely winners of the Nobel Peace Prize. The WHO, Russian politician Alexei Navalnyб and Greta Thunberg are higher on the list.

    Alexei Navalny's Smart Voting video had received 900,000 views in the day since Google/Apple removed his app from their app stores. Google-owned YouTube just blocked access to it inside Russia at the request of Russian authorities.

    ⚡️ Following a request from Russian authorities, YouTube has blocked access to a video posted by Alexei Navalny’s team with a list of anti-Kremlin candidates it wants voters to back in nationwide parliamentary elections currently underway

    So, now blocked our YouTube video that contained nothing but a list of endorsements. This video is not anymore available in Russia: For "extremism". It only consists of 225 names of official candidates participating in an election. Such a shame.

    Telegram - which Russia tried and failed to ban for 2 years - has been messenger of choice for Kremlin opponents. Can’t see that lasting after Durov’s Smart Voting ban - a lot of opposition-leaning Russian now worried about what he might share with authorities, if told to.

    Telegram founder Pavel Durov said on Friday evening that the messenger is suspending support for all “bots associated with election campaigning” during Russia’s ongoing Duma election in what appears to be another blow to Navalny's “Smart Voting” strategy
