RT @eduardosuarez: Aquí varios economistas ucranianos refutan una por una las chorradas que dice una y otra vez Noam Chomsky sobre la guerra en Ucrania https://letraslibres.com/politica/carta-abierta-a-noam-chosmky-y-otros-intelectuales-de-ideas-parecidas-sobre-la-guerra-entre-rusia-y-ucrania/
RT @OperadorNuclear: En un cambio histórico, el Partido Verde de Finlandia 🇫🇮 votó abrumadoramente a favor de adoptar una postura totalmente pronuclear en su reunión nacional. El manifiesto del partido afirma que la energía nuclear es una «energía sostenible».

Guy was in great form today. Listen to this bit of his speech and be inspired!
Thanks for coming @GuyVerhofstadt !
RT @GuyVerhofstadt: Debate on the Future of Europe continues ✊🏻
Great enthousiasm @CiudadanosCs today in Barcelona.
My plea: we drop unanimity.
Ineffective politics leads to weaknesses we can no longer afford !
RT @CiudadanosCs: 🇪🇸🇪🇺 @lugaricano "@GuyVerhofstadt es un ejemplo de lo que debe ser la política europea en el futuro" #CoFoE
Su mensaje tiene una gran impacto en toda Europa. Agradecemos el gran esfuerzo que ha hecho para acompañarnos hoy.
RT @CiudadanosCs: Europa reaccionó de manera muy importante ante la #COVID19
👉 Financió los ERTE en todo el continente
👉 Emitió Eurobonos por primera vez para financiar la recuperación

RT @CiudadanosCs: Ante la guerra de Ucrania, Europa ha reaccionado muy lentamente.
❌ Se han enviado 60.000 millones de euros a Putin para comprar gas y energía.

Me ha parecido sensato y equilibrado (difícil en este tema) Antonio Caño sobre la combinación de virtud pública y miserias privadas del Rey Juan Carlos, y la necesidad de pasar página. https://theobjective.com/elsubjetivo/opinion/2022-05-22/rey-juan-carlos-espana/
30 years since the assassination by the Mafia of two of the best men who ever lived, Falcone and (two months later) Borsellino. The Italian state did not deserve such corageous and integer servants.
RT @NickWhithorn: 30 years ago, on 23 May 1992, Giovanni Falcone is assassinated, along with Francesca Morvillo, Vito Schifani, Rocco Dicillo and Antonio Montanaro. This thread tells the story of how he is undermined, isolated & abandone…
The @CFMUK @LSEEcon has been quietly assembling a world beating group of macroeconomists. If you are thinking of studying for a PhD, this is a great opportunity.
RT @R2Rsquared: If you'd like to work full time next year as a pre-doc doing research in macroeconomics with @liliana_vvarela, @ilzetzki, @JADHazell, @ben_moll, and myself at the @CFMUK, apply here:

@MacroAlf Sorry but I find this obsession with authenticity extremely tiring and annoying (and yes, Spaniards have the same --equally tiring-- obsession over "authentic" Paella as Italians over authentic Pizza.

Una oportunidad histórica que, temo, que terminaremos "invirtiéndo" en ladrillos: 7 de los primeros 10 sectores adjudicatarios son construcción, demoliciones, obras, etc.(@esadecpol)
RT @BalEdmundo: Esta desigualdad generacional en la redistribución de la riqueza nos obliga a tomar decisiones valientes. En Cs hemos pedido incluir en el Pacto de Rentas las pensiones, y no vincularlas todas al IPC.
No podemos condenar así a nuestros jóvenes y familias.

RT @COdendahl: What I find most striking about the German debate on the #Ukraine war: how ignorantly it glosses over the fact that Germany has been wrong on almost all relevant dossiers in the lead-up to the war: Ukraine, Russia, Putin, central and eastern European security, defence, energy,…
The slow path out of negative rates by the Fed and ECB in the midst of large inflation deviations confirms the fears about fiscal dominance and financial dominance we expressed in 2020.
Central Banks' reactions will be tied down by fears of instability. https://voxeu.org/article/tackling-inflation-if-it-reappears
Gazprom has just cut off Finland from gas supplies for the "crime" of paying in Euros and not giving in to Russian blackmail.
Can we suppose the other countries have followed the European Commission helpful advice on how to cheat on their own sanctions?
RT @ericgomezaznar: The article on human capital levels in the Guaraní missions has been published. Thanks to all the reviewers & scholars who made it possible. And special thanks to #IECON's people.
