RT @ben_moll: New edition of @kielinstitute Ukraine Support Tracker aid in % of GDP:
"Germany is no longer among the top 12 (ranked 14th) so does not appear"
RT @globeandmail: Captain Volodymyr Kiselov had a choice: He could retreat with his unit of Ukrainian special forces and maybe live to see his wife and infant daughter again. Or he could stand his ground, under heavy Russian fire, and give his men better odds of escaping.

RT @AntonioFatas: Also record level for Euro workers aged 25-54. And with a stronger post-COVID recovery, opening a gap with the US numbers.
RT @AntonioFatas: Employment to population ratio for workers aged 55-64 is at a record high level in the Euro area. Unlike in the US, level is above pre-COVID. What is more impressive is that Euro has caught up with the US (from 40% to 60% in last 17 years).
Además, la Comisión prevé que la inflación subyacente se mantenga elevada, en un 3,9% en 2022 y un 2,7% en 2023.
Con estos números parece inevitable que el Banco Central Europeo se vea obligado a subir los tipos de interés, lo que nos puede poner en un aprieto ante los mercados.
Como consecuencia, el déficit estructural aumentará casi un punto hasta el -4,3% al cierre del año que viene.
Este número refleja un deterioro sistémico de las finanzas públicas. Estaremos en el ojo de mira de la Comisión cuando vuelvan a aplicarse las reglas fiscales.
España parte de una posición muy diferente a la de 2008. Terminaremos el año con una deuda pública cercana al 120%, el triple que al inicio de la gran crisis financiera.
La rebaja de la previsión de crecimiento significa que no recuperaremos los niveles de PIB anteriores a la pandemia en 2022.
Tenemos los peores resultados económicos desde la pandemia de toda la zona Euro.

Por fin buenas noticias para Putin: le nombran "vendedor del año en la OTAN"- jamás en club había tenido tanto éxito en reclutar nuevos miembros.

RT @carlbildt: I don’t think Putin 🇷🇺 gets many awards these days, and whether he’ll appreciate this one might of course be slightly doubtful. But there is little doubt that he fully deserves it.

Great analysis of the stability of algorithmic stablecoins.
RT @QuentinVandewe2: We spent the last year figuring out what algorithmic stablecoins are and came up with a dynamic model that might help us understand what’s going on with #Terra_Luna . Here are our main takeaways. THREAD.
Pues le he ido a tuitear este fantástico artículo a @oscar_puente_ (alcalde de mi ciudad) para decirle que esas señalizaciones de la historia que faltan es urgente y fácil ponerlas y he descubierto que me ha bloqueado. En fin, aquí el artículo, que alguien se lo haga llegar.
RT @RuxandraTesloi1: Reminder that CRISPR wouldn't have been possible without (at the time) "useless" research on bacterial immunity in the 90s.
Let's make science rigourous and trustable. But focusing solely on immediate applicability is not good long-term.
You don't pay in Euros for Russian oil and gas
No pagas en euros la gasolina y el gas ruso
What a fascinating thread summarizing the arguments of @cblatts new book. So much looking forward to reading "Why we fight"
RT @cblatts: Why did America stay in Afghanistan 20 years? Everyone has their pet theory. But I study conflict for a living, and I was always puzzled
Here's how a Chicago gang leader changed the way I look at America's long war. And what he taught me about why we fight more generally.

RT @RikeFranke: Good point. (Made by Mikhail Khodorkovsky in @NewStatesman )
