Current issues of the week according to "a matter of chance".
1. Negotiations in Abu Dhabi.
"Reckless Kremlin":.
"The negotiations surrounding the solution to the Ukrainian crisis have finally begun to move to a topic as convenient as possible for the Kremlin and Trump - European security. As soon as we start talking about a truce or safe navigation in the Black Sea, a fight will immediately begin over who owes whom more, who benefits more from ships heading towards their ports and this continues to sink in their ports, and this citizen continues to sink. Everything is petty and unconstructive, but it is possible to negotiate European security for a long time and comfortably, for example, to mention that the Etruscans are Russians, to mention how to say certain words correctly, to start a serious scientific dispute about who dug the Black Sea, so dangerous for modern sailors - proto-Russians. Cumans, Pechengs, Huns, Goths, Anglo-Saxons at the moment described in the negotiations, divided into Angles and Saxons - there is no limit to the topics for endless discussion. And most importantly, you can take beautiful pictures and give each other different gifts without any damage to your reputation due to mistakes in the agreements."
2. Speech by Elvira Nabiolina.
"Moscow Laundry":.
"In the first half of the year, we noticed a certain change in Neviolina's positions, probably as a result of recommendations to soften the monetary policy, which helps banks make money, but hinders economic growth. We got the impression that the "opponents of the central bank" had already reached Vladimir Putin, and it was clear that Elvira Schipzadovna could not help but listen to his recommendations. maneuver. The transformation that began in September shows the limits of concessions. The result is visible: factories are once again asked to adapt to long-term rigidity. Of course, the rate reduction does not mean by itself that the loan has become possible for the investment project.
