@DebatAlRojoVivo @migsebastiang Miguel, esta idea de que el BdeE tiene que manipular sus datos para anclar cosas es completamente absurda, ajena a cualquier debate económico mundial. Sí lo hiciera, su credibilidad duraría cinco minutos. ¿Es eso lo que planteas?
RT @spignal: With great power comes great responsibility. To shut the hell up.
@ianbremmer Who could commit? Not USA president, no democratic politician can bind future elected leaders. See e.g. Pinochet.
Who is Ukraine's main weapons supplier? USA?
Nope
UK?
No.
Give up?
It is Russia. By far. For real. @WSJ

"rivals would seek to conserve whatever fighting forces they have, either to protect their own personal interests during an unpredictable time, or to make a play for Moscow. ...it will soon seem foolish for everyone involved to have armed forces located in distant Ukraine"

Is Trump killing his voters? Yes.
Could Covid excess deaths among his voters due to non-vaccination be enough to turn the next election? This paper by @jwswallace @paulgp @jasonlschwartz' finds large differences in mortality once vaccine available. https://www.nber.org/papers/w30512
Cuando oímos que los ucranianos han "roto las líneas" no nos podemos imaginar el terror que deben sufrir y la valentía que superarlo requiere.
Putin tiene que pagar un alto precio por esta locura.
RT @IAPonomarenko:
¿Puedo, sin que sirva de precedente, dar la enhorabuena al Gobierno de @sanchezcastejon por esta propuesta de Copa del Mundo conjunta con Portugal y Ucrania?
RT @ZelenskyyUa: The joint bid of Spain, Portugal & Ukraine to host the 2030 FIFA World Cup is more than a symbol of faith in our joint victory. Ukraine will endure, prevail & be rebuilt thanks to the solidarity of its partners. Grateful for the support to 🇪🇸 & 🇵🇹 @sanchezcaste…
Most provocative tweet ever?
RT @nicholaswolfson: @jarvis_best The prosecution of Jesus was entirely legal and justified. He broke the law. Justice was done. I congratulate the folks who made a cult out of that. Pretty good sleight of hand. Republicans, however, will not succeed in making Trump into the Son of God. Won't work.
News of conscripts organizing to complain is potentially the best news since the start of the war. Echoes of the transformation of WW1 defeats into revolution will be resonating in Putin's ears. Watch the video.
RT @ChuckPfarrer: IT BEGINS: Moscow's TASS news reports that mobilized troops in the Omsk region are electing spokesmen to complain about conditions and lack of pay. These are literally acts of mutiny and insubordination-- …
RT @ChuckPfarrer: IT BEGINS: Moscow's TASS news reports that mobilized troops in the Omsk region are electing spokesmen to complain about conditions and lack of pay. These are literally acts of mutiny and insubordination-- and don't bode well for the combat performance Putin’s newest troops.
RT @COdendahl: @lugaricano Exactly, I think people in Europe are completely unaware that the US may indeed restrict gas exports in the future to protect its own consumers and industry from "European" prices.
Europeans complaining about lack of US solidarity because oil and gas from US is expensive? Be careful what they wish for!
See this article by my colleague Shang Jin Wei arguing for the return of a partial export ban.

Seen from the US, this observation by @COdendahl is critical: the US might stop anytime fossil fuel exports, as it did since the 70s crisis until 2015.

RT @COdendahl: Germany, which now depends for its current security and energy on the US, should probably thank whatever God it prays to that the US is still exporting LN…
Interesante: España es la mayor beneficiaria del desbloqueo casi completo de los puertos ucranianos.
RT @OSW_eng: 'The unblocking of the ports goes a long way to solving the problem created after 24 February regarding food exports from Ukraine. Cereal exports in September were only 23.5% lower than in the corresponding month of 2021 (4.2 million tonnes)'.

@CEMFInews @jan_eeckhout @emanresa82 Congratulations @emanresa82 !!!
RT @CEMFInews: Elena Manresa (@emanresa82), former CEMFI PhD graduate and current Research Fellow, has been awarded the XXI Fundación Banco Sabadell Award to the best Spanish economist under 40
Does any one have a comparable map for EU?
RT @EvelinaStoikou: North America’s electric vehicle demand is scaling up and battery makers are following suit. @BloombergNEF is tracking more than 813 GWh across 55 manufacturing plants in North America. The US Inflation Reduction Act will likely lead to more announcements.
