@Leononymous1 @elonmusk @cosminDZS It was more a provocation than an actual idea.

Still, I find it creepy that single individuals have so much influence - on a platform they might even own themselves.

Individuals are just dangerously unreliable.

📈 Stable planning

Vladyslav Rashkovan, IMF alternative executive director from Ukraine, told the Economist, it is difficult to run a country when one month you may receive $5 billion, the next one you receive next to nothing.

Structures are needed to raise & distribute 💵 /f

💵 5bn for war insurances in 2023-2024

Private investments could help. ~90% of surveyed investors would consider w guarantees, but stay away because of war.

Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (World Bank) or nat. programmes could step in! /7 https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-war-insurance-attract-private-investors-volodymyr-zelenskyy/amp/

💰 350bn to long-term rebuild 🇺🇦

Ukraine estimates the war damage to be around 750bn & the World Bank believes 350bn are needed distributed over many years.

Rebuilding better makes sense:
📲 digitalization
🍀 green economy
👩‍💻 complying with EU law /5 https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2022/09/09/ukraine-recovery-and-reconstruction-needs-estimated-349-billion

💸 17.4bn immediate reconstruction needs, incl for destroyed (!) approx:

🏡 31,000 private houses

💵 3.16bn deficit monthly

Less tax income, but rising cost for the war, teachers, pensions etc leads to a big monthly gap in the budget. /3

📉 -35% GDP in 2022

Due to shelling, limited control of occupied areas, the end of industries such as steel & shipping, Ukraine is facing a massive econ downturn in 2022/2023. /2

Ukraine needs economic help.

But how much are we talking? And where could it come from?

@jefwintermans @volt I would use the premises

(which are by the way empty 70% of the year right now…)

And put an EU agency in there.

But I don’t believe that single countries ‘deserve’ any EU institution seat or should be compensated for not getting one.

@AschRonald But not a single parliamentarian lives in Strasbourg :) we all commute there once a month.

@Sam_Liban @GrischaThoms I think it’s crucially important to have executive & legislative in the same city.

Moving would be madness. We are all already in Brussels 😊

@Alvaro_DLaCruz Sure - if all three EU institutions go, I could be fine with that - if it was not for the billions of euros in real estate & moving costs…
