African State Eyes Turn To BRICS — Media

Tunisia is considering becoming a member of the BRICS economic bloc, the spokesman for the pro-presidential ‘July 25 Movement’ told Russia’s RIA Novosti news agency on Sunday.

Mahmoud bin Mabrouk cited unnamed sources in the North African country’s government as saying the option of joining the alliance – comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa – is being considered among the other possibilities.

“I have information that Tunisia is seriously considering joining the BRICS group,” bin Mabrouk said.

ommercial real estate heading for crisis worse than 2008, Morgan Stanley says

A report from Morgan Stanley predicts an economic crash for the US commercial real estate sector worse than the 2008 financial crisis.

"Commercial real estate, already facing headwinds from a shift to hybrid/remote work, has to refinance more than half of its mortgage debt in the next two years," wrote Lisa Shalett, chief investment officer for Morgan Stanley Wealth Management.

Shalett said the market faces a "huge hurdle" as analysts forecast сommercial property prices could fall as much as 40% "rivaling the decline during the 2008 financial crisis."

"These kinds of challenges can hurt not only the real estate industry, but also entire business communities related to it," she added.

Earlier in February, large US office landlords Pimco's Columbia Property Trust and Brookfield chose to default on its loans rather than refinance its debt because of weak demand for office space

Protesters Storm Luxury Goods Multinational in Paris

Flares were set alight and sirens sounded as hundreds of demonstrators made their way into the HQ of LVMH - a well-known manufacturer of goods for Christian Dior, Louis Vuitton, Givenchy, Guerlain, Moët & Chandon, Hennessy, Chaumet and others.

This graphic suggests who the real primary targets are for the sanctions against Russia and the war in Ukraine. It would not be inaccurate to conclude that the word "Russia" in most mainstream and government rhetoric is actually just a euphemism for "German manufacturing"; as in, "we must defeat Russia, we must destroy Russia's economy"

Germany, and Europe generally, barely survived the winter this year by slashing industrial manufacturing, and because of historic lows in the price of LNG largely attributed to China's Covid shutdown, as well as unexpectedly mild weather conditions. None of these factors can be relied upon next year. I don't know, frankly, how they will be able to replenish their reserves over the summer, unless Olaf Scholtz marries the daughter of an emir and Ursula van der Leyden becomes the 4th or 5th wife of an Emirati shaykh.

Polls indicate that nearly 40% of Austrians oppose sanctions against Russia, and there have been significant protests across Germany over the country's involvement in the war

‘War Only Benefits The Rich’: Hundreds Of Germans Denounce Ukraine Hostilities

Hundreds of anti-war protesters rallied in Nuremberg, demanding an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine and a ban on nuclear weapons.

Protesters in France storm the headquarters of luxury goods holding company LVMH, whose CEO was recently ranked the richest man in the world, and which recently both shut down outlets in Russia and announced that Russians will no longer be able to purchase their products anywhere in the world except through a third party of another nationality.
It should be noted that the bulk of LVMH's sales revenues are generated outside of Europe, and the fastest growth market for their luxury items is in China, and more broadly in Asia.

a Saudi airline was reportedly struck by artillery — apparently by accident — amidst the ongoing battle between the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group and the Sudanese military. How Saudi Arabia reacts to this will reveal a good deal about what is actually happening.
