RT @PhillipsPOBrien: This is really a fascinating point. We talk about the aid given to Ukraine by NATO, but while it’s improving is still far more restricted than what the USSR gave North Korea or Vietnam.
RT @RobinBrooksIIF: So the debate over the new ECB anti-fragmentation tool isn't just about market discipline. It's about what kind of conditionality is optimal in a tool that caps spreads. Conditionality and some stigma serve an important purpose. They discourage excessive use & encourage reform...
Some beliefs of the front runner (according to betting odds) Penny Mordaunt:
- Believes that Turkey is joining EU and no one can veto it
- Believes in homeopathy
- Believes in tax fairy tales
Good luck with retuning to evidence -based policy. Poor UK.
RT @CDP1882: Penny Mordaunt signed a motion claiming that there is "overwhelming anecdotal evidence that homeopathy is effective."
She's not fit to be in parliament, let alone govern…
RT @mgarridocierva: Impecable artículo de @lugaricano El presidente gana tiempo. España lo pierde https://blogs.elconfidencial.com/espana/tribuna/2022-07-16/presidente-espana-plan-anticrisis_3461699/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=BotoneraWeb
Hablé con @JuanRaLucas en La @LinternaCope sobre la situación en Italia tras la crisis de gobierno y las consecuencias que puede tener para España. La entrevista completa para el que tenga ganas de oirla en la playa o en su paseo.
El presidente gana tiempo, España lo pierde. Escribo en @elconfidencial sobre el "plan" de Sánchez. En abierto. https://blogs.elconfidencial.com/espana/tribuna/2022-07-16/presidente-espana-plan-anticrisis_3461699/
@heimbergecon Here is (was) Draghi's opinion. Do you agree?
?t=rMhI-5wBBEkK8kNIu9q6tg&s=19
RT @lugaricano: Draghi argued in 2013:
"conditionality is important in providing the ECB with adequate assurance that interventions supporting sovereign debt bond prices do not mutate into financial subsidies for unsustainable national policies"
Still true, Mme @lagarde?

RT @GuyVerhofstadt: Killing children in the street, far from any front line or military targets… This is terror.
Russia is a terrorist state, getting its power only by speading fear and death… and it will never stop unless we stop Killer Putin !

RT @ThoenissenC: Restarting or not shutting down Germany’s nuclear power plants is for the Green Party what rejoining the EU is to the Tories. It would undo a costly mistake, but goes against everything they stand for.

@PabloPerezA @CasaReal ¿Efecto becario? ¿Ya en julio?
Eurudito artículo de @mconthe sobre el culto a la memoria y los costes hundidos.
RT @mconthe: Detesto a los paladines d la "memoria" y culto a (su versión) del pasado, obsesionados con Guerra Civil, heroísmo d RCasanova, roble d Guernica o gestas d D. Pelayo. Sigamos la "regla de Nadal": miremos solo hacia adelante.

Japan orders restart of 9 nuclear reactors shut down in 2011, while in Germany Mr Habeck says it is impossible to restart 3 shut down last year or avoid shutting down 3 this year.
In Spain the government continues shut down plan.

Qué buena idea. Y ponemos a un Óscar López o a un Juan Manuel Serrano de Consejero delegado y en vez de perder decenas o centenares de millones de euros, como hacen en Paradores y Correos, podemos perder miles de millones de euros.

RT @DougSaunders: "We are facing the biggest crisis this country has ever had," says the head of Germany's employers' association in what will now be recognized as history's most cosmically ill-considered overstatement
Someone is really getting ready to throw Ukraine under the bus. Who leaked this insane (cover!)story to the FT?
RT @EUDelegationUA: 🇪🇺EU has no reason not to trust the 🇺🇦 Government, as weapons supplies provided by EU Member States are used in Ukraine for intended purposes: defend its people against a brutal Russian aggressor. Smuggling claims are often simply lies.
RT @TobiasKoepf: @JeremyCliffe on point: „Europe’s largest economy can get through a temporary energy crisis. But what about the future crises of a continent where borders can be redrawn by force? These prospects, not that of turning down radiators, are what should keep Germans..awake at night.“
