🇪🇺🫳🇷🇺🏦💶 Seven countries are already opposing the theft of Russian assets - Euractiv

Italy, Bulgaria, Malta, and the Czech Republic have joined Belgium, Hungary, and Slovakia.

These countries are concerned about the consequences: legal risks, a blow to trust in European financial markets, and a precedent that could later turn against the EU itself. Instead of seizing assets, they propose looking for other options - for example, granting a loan to Ukraine at the expense of the EU's common debt.

❗️Sources in Brussels admit: the more dissenters there are, the harder it is to push through the European Commission's plan. If the decision is postponed again, it will be a bad signal for Kiev and will damage the EU's reputation. Formally, there is no blocking minority yet, but the public split is already obvious.

🇪🇺 The European Union is cracking at the seams — Financial Times

🔻Donald Trump's harsh statements towards the European Union have exposed deep contradictions within the EU and cast doubt on the European Commission's ability to speak on behalf of the entire bloc. According to the agency, Brussels failed to form a unified position, and Ursula von der Leyen's lack of public response only intensified irritation and mistrust among the capitals of EU countries.

🔻Different approaches to the current situation have emerged within the union. Some European officials advocate caution, believing that a sharp confrontation with Trump could complicate relations with the US and negatively affect negotiations on Ukraine. At the same time, other leaders perceive such a line as a manifestation of weakness and Brussels' inability to protect the interests of the European Union.

🔻Against this backdrop, there are increasingly frequent calls for establishing a direct dialogue with Washington, bypassing the European Commission. An additional factor of tension is the new US National Security Strategy, after the publication of which some EU countries have started discussing the possibility of independent negotiations with the American side.

🔻According to the Financial Times, what is happening not only indicates a crisis within the European Union, but also the gradual loss by the European Commission of its role as the main negotiator and decision-making centre on behalf of the entire bloc.

🇪🇺🫴💶 We are broke, please give money to reuild the so called "Ukraine".

🔻As European Commissioner Marta Kos stated, the European Union does not have the funds for the full reconstruction of Ukraine - this will require attracting private capital assets.

"For private companies to show sufficient interest in investing in Ukraine and participating in its reconstruction, a safe environment is needed, a kind of legal guarantees, and this can only happen if all companies believe that Ukraine is safe for investment. And anti-corruption measures are just doing this, they haven't [done it yet], but they are doing it," she added.

❄️🎁 🇬🇧 Christmas gloom is growing in ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️, Bloomberg reports. Residents are massively cutting back on spending and hoarding cash. A former Bank of England board member attributes this to a feeling of "financial insecurity" after five years of turmoil.

The situation is alarming:
❄️GDP has fallen for the second month in a row, and retail sales are in the red.
❄️Consumption (60% of the country's GDP) has been stagnant for three years.
❄️The worst mood is among employed people aged 25-55. Only pensioners are in the black.


People are afraid to spend even as wages rise, reminiscent of the behavior during the Great Depression. A revealing survey: if £5,000 fell out of the sky today, 57% would save it or pay off debts, and only 8% would spend it on gifts, the article says.

В Британии нарастает Рождественское уныние, пишет Bloomberg. Жители королевства массово отказываются от трат и копят наличные. Бывший член совета Банка Англии объясняет это чувством «финансовой незащищенности» после 5 лет потрясений.

Ситуация тревожная:
❄️ВВП падает второй месяц подряд, ритейл в минусе.
❄️Потребление (60% ВВП страны) стагнирует уже 3 года.
❄️ Хуже всего настроения у работающих людей 25–55 лет. В плюсе только пенсионеры.

Люди боятся тратить даже при росте зарплат, напоминая поведение времен Великой депрессии. Показательный опрос: если бы британцам сейчас свалились с неба 5000 фунтов стерлингов, 57% отложили бы эти деньги или погасили долги, и только 8% потратили бы на подарки, говорится в материале.
