Un libro fundamental para entender los impuestos. Muchas ganas de leer la actualización. ¡Enhorabuena @frdelatorre !
RT @frdelatorre: El próximo 5 de mayo sale a la venta la nueva edición actualizada de ¿Hacienda somos todos? Impuestos y fraude en España. En ocho años han pasado muchas cosas...
Dear French friends, there is a lot at stake in the middle of a war for Europe, for France and for the world. We cannot afford to repeat Trump, Brexit, Orban... Please get out and vote!
RT @FHeisbourg: I'm a good Frenchman who has zero sympathy for the brexiting Mop. But I can only endorse Boris Johnson for his exemplary, gutsy, timely and substantive visit to Kyiv. And bravo for the antiship missiles, armoured vehicles etc. Well done 🇬🇧for 🇺🇦 and indeed Europe as a whole
RT @anandMenon1: 'Russia after this conflict will not be easy to deal with, but it would be better if it were a country...wondering how to recover from a catastrophic folly than one that had been left bloodied and bitter but emboldened' Charactersitically acute by @LawDavF https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/putin-is-in-a-hurry-to-end-the-war-in-ukraine-but-his-demoralised-army-is-scrambling-for-reserves-9zvng8mrn
Continúan las grandes salidas de capital de China. Dos hipótesis:
1) Política: Tras la invasión de Ucrania, los inversores ven a China como riesgo político
2) Económica: COVID, demografía, burbuja inmobiliaria reducen las perspectivas de crecimiento a largo.
RT @RobinBrooksIIF: The longer material outflows from China persist, the more likely it becomes this isn't some data fluke, but a structural break. That structural break could b…
President von der Leyen, a gas ban is possible. We aren't even trying. If Europe does not stop funding Putin, history will not see us as bystanders. History will know we were complicit.
My speech in the European Parliament 👇
Nunca he sido fan de Boris, pero este un muy buen gesto.
RT @DefenceU: At a handshake distance. @BorisJohnson and @ZelenskyyUa walked through the center of Kyiv and talked to ordinary Kyivans. This is what democracy looks like. This is what courage looks like. This is what true friendship between peoples and between nations looks like.
Las democracias procesan mucho mejor la información y rectifican mejor.
Dos ejemplos en un mes
- Putin 2022: asalto descoordinado y sin planificar a Kiev
- Xi 2022: estrategia de 0-Covid con Omicron
¿Quién les dice que están equivocados? ¿Cómo se echan atrás los dictadores?
Fantástico, como siempre desde el principio de esta guerra, @JosepBorrellF : " esta guerra se ganará en el campo de batalla" (o sea, no forzaremos a Ucrania a hacer una negociación para ser dividida y subyugada).
Un orgullo que sea nuestro representante.
RT @JosepBorrellF: Touched by the resilience, determination and hospitality of @ZelenskyyUA & @Denys_Shmyhal.
I return with a clear to do list:
1. This war will be won on the bat…
RT @JosepBorrellF: 3. We need to continue to increase our pressure on Russia. We have imposed massive sanctions already but more needs to be done on the energy sector, incl oil.
4.On Monday, I am convening an EU Foreign Affairs Council #FAC to discuss next steps.
I hope against all hope: might we still get rid of Xi in the Fall Party Congress, given his unique ability to make horrible decisions?
RT @MikeSmithAFR: The situation in Shanghai is scary. Reports of millions struggling to feed themselves, elderly unable to access medicine, videos of small riots breaking out circulating on social media. Many households relying on inadequate govt food deliveries.
See this passage and @ben_moll´s thread to see how implausible price and expenditure share of gas must be in order to get large GDP drops in Germany from a gas ban.
I am frustrated we have not yet been able to communicate this simply (although we are getting close).
RT @ben_moll: Very nice @SVR_Wirtschaft @ngarnadt!
This passage actually nicely shows what a crazy world view one needs to get numbers like the @IMKFlash @SDullien -6%…
RT @ben_moll: @IMKFlash @SDullien let me know if this is unfair. But could you answer following questions:
1. How large is energy price increase you feed into your model? That is by what factor does it increase?
2. By how much does the energy expenditure share increase in your simulations?
RT @ben_moll: Very nice @SVR_Wirtschaft @ngarnadt!
This passage actually nicely shows what a crazy world view one needs to get numbers like the @IMKFlash @SDullien -6% GDP drop.
The gas price increases to 900€/MWh. From an initial 2018 price of ~20€/MWh (see graph). So a 45-fold increase!
@Franmartorell61 No. El femenino si es françaises!
@RodZeidan Rodrigo, mucho ánimo. Te sugiero que traduzcas el hilo y ponlo en inglés, creo que no ha habido nada similar en Twitter y es verdaderamente escalofriante.
Aunque esté en portugués, es bastante fácil leer este impresionante hilo de un profesor brasileño en Shanghai sobre la aplicación del Covid cero en Shanghai y el principio, parece, de una contestación social sin precedentes. Os lo recomiendo
via @IvanWerning
RT @RodZeidan: 🧵Fio.
O lockdown em Shanghai é o mais pesado do mundo. Supermercados fechados. Transportes públicos fechados. Entrega por aplicativos quase impossível.
Governo …
Lo de súper-estratega súper-Putin viene de mi respuesta a uno de nuestros "listísimos" almirantes /generales retirados que no hacen más que repetir eslóganes rusos.

RT @lugaricano: Ayer por la noche me enfadé en directo porque estoy harto del falso pragmatismo que sugiere que no tomemos medidas contra Rusia y que aceptemos la ley del más fuerte.
La Unión Europea es una superpotencia económica y podem…
El súper-estratega súper-Putin lo ha vuelto a bordar (ironía ON).
La entrda de Finlandia es un enorme activo para la OTAN.
RT @alexstubb: Finnish @NATO membership will be win-win for Nato, Finland and the whole Baltic Sea region. Reserves 900K. Mobilisation 250-300K. Nato compatibility beyond the call of duty. Track record of joint exercises and operations. Sophisticated intel. F-18 and F-35. Safer together.
RT @slucy: The high speed railway between Madrid and Barcelona was built from scratch in for $11b and offers hourly service which takes 2h30m.
The one between SF and LA in California -- same distance -- is currently at $105b and counting.
