By imposing Ukraine-linked anti Russian sanctions US is suddenly finding out that any trade outside of the existing dollar scheme could hit the greenback harder than anything else since the Bretton Wood arrangement, soon after the Second World War.
The discounted oil price is working to Russia’s advantage. By announcing rouble-only trade and fixing gold price at 5,000 roubles, Putin has done two things at the same time. One, he has told Russia’s oil buyers, including those EU members, that dollar would not be of use to them in their trade with the nation.
Translated, it means that if the US did not want rouble and Russia, Moscow too would not want dollars. This is a risky yet bold step, which the Americans did not seem to have strategized for.
Next and more importantly, by pegging a rouble price for gold, Moscow has also reminded European capitals and the rest of the world as to how the US, after committing to a gold-linked dollar as the global ‘reserve currency’, went on to unilaterally de-link the same, when none could oppose – and none did oppose.
That was full 50 years back, in 1971, when Richard Nixon was the US President. It was a polite reminder to the world, how the US had taken unilateral decisions on sensitive economic and monetary issues without global consultations. #Ukraine #USA #Russia

⚡️Enjoy how the plot was developing rapidly! From the unveiling of plans for the construction of a gas pipeline to the removal of an unwanted prime minister in Pakistan⚡️
On March 30, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced that the construction of the Pakistani Stream gas pipeline would become a priority task to increase trade turnover and implement a number of projects in the energy sector. The discussion of the project took place during a meeting between Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and his Pakistani counterpart Shah Mehmood Qureshi in Tunxi, China. At the same event the Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi stressed "The Cold War mentality should not be allowed to return to the Asian region. It is impossible to allow a repetition of the block confrontation in Asia".
The National Assembly of Pakistan on Saturday, April 9, supported the vote of no confidence put forward by the opposition to the country's Prime Minister Imran Khan, as reported by Dawn.
A few minutes before the voting began, the Speaker of the National Assembly, Asad Kayser, announced that he was resigning, saying that he did not want to "participate in a foreign conspiracy to oust the Prime Minister."
Today the Parliament of Pakistan has elected a new Prime Minister. As Reuters reports the leader of the Pakistan Muslim League party (Nawaz faction) Shahbaz Sharif was elected Prime Minister.

Entrepreneur Elon Musk, the head of Tesla and Space X, who recently became the largest shareholder of Twitter, decided not to join its board of directors.
This was announced on April 11 by the director of the company Parag Agrawal.
Twitter CEO Agrawal was frank enough to admit on his Twitter account that by Elon`s refusal to join the board of directors -"It's for the best. We have always appreciated and will always appreciate the contribution to our company from shareholders, regardless of whether they are members of the board of directors or not".
Musk's criticism and sarcasm regarding the political engagement/politicization of social networks and Twitter is not a secret: the day before, Elon Musk proposed turning Twitter's main office in San Francisco into a homeless shelter. According to him, no one appears in the company's head office "anyway." The entrepreneur invited his subscribers to vote for or against this idea. Thus, 91% of the survey participants supported the initiative.
Amid falling capitalization of social networks due to Apple's new privacy rules (Snap, Twitter, etc.), the purchase of a giant share of Twitter by Elon Musk is a landmark event: social networks ceased to be something exceptional in the market, ceased to dictate trends as soon as the stock collapse began, and immediately moved into the object of absorption. Crisis in Ukraine as a trigger for the birth of a new media constellation as it was with Amazon owner Jeff Bezos when he bought The Washington Post … #Musk #Twitter #Agrawal #Bezos

Europeans are rapidly getting poorer due to anti-Russian sanctions
The EU assumed that in 2022 it would enter an era of prosperity and finally restore the economy after the pandemic. But the Cold War against Russia turned out to be more important to the authorities of Western countries than the well-being of their own populations. Inflation in Denmark reached a 37-year high and rose from 2% to 5.4%, writes Bloomberg. The existing problems with labor shortages in the country were also superimposed by the increase in energy prices. Inflation in the UK from February 6% is preparing for 8%. Britain's average household will pay 73% more for its bills than last year. Living standards will fall to 1950 levels. In the Czech Republic, also due to the rise in price of gasoline (+ 50%), electricity (+ 24.7%) and gas (+ 37.7%), record inflation was recorded - 12.7%. The last time such an indicator was in 1998. Germany also did not stand aside - inflation for March was 7.3% - the highest figure in the last 40 years.

The largest European oil company Shell Plc, despite a public statement about the rejection of Russian oil, continues to buy it, hiding behind "mixing".
According to Bloomberg columnist Xavier Brass, to sell a barrel in which only 49.99% is produced in Russia, and 50.01 percent is supplied from other sources. From shell's point of view, such a cargo is not technically of Russian origin.
This maneuver is at the heart of a growing and opaque market for mixed Russian diesel and other refined petroleum products, one of many that oil companies and commodity traders use to secure Russian energy supplies to Europe and at the same time satisfy public opinion demanding an end to subsidies to Vladimir Putin's war machine. The company amended the so-called general terms and conditions of its contracts to allow mixing with Russia. #USA #Russia #Sanctions #FindTruth

☣️🦠Infected and very dangerous: what is behind the plans of the US Department of Defense for cooperation with Mongolia🦠☣️
🇺🇸Military institutes and research centers from US are increasingly conducting microbiological research as they are preparing to transfer research from similar institutions closed in Ukraine to Asia.
🧑🔬After numerous revelations about the activities of a network of biological laboratories in the former USSR, the Pentagon switched to expanding the biological research program in Asia. In 2021, a joint study of zoonotic intestinal parasites Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia duodenalis was published, conducted by specialists from the Duke Institute of Global Health (USA) and the Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Mongolia. In the course of the study, water samples were taken, as well as samples of biomaterials of people, animals and flies in 250 Mongolian households located in rural, suburban and urban areas. It was found that 20% of the participants had at least one positive result for the presence of these zoonotic intestinal parasites, which can survive on almost any surface, in soil and drinking water (regardless of its chlorination) from several hours to several months.
😷By a strange coincidence, it was in 2020 that an outbreak of bubonic plague was recorded in Western Mongolia, which borders Russia, after which a quarantine was declared in the region. A few months earlier, cases of bubonic plague infection were detected in the Inner Mongolia region in northern China. It was noted that the plague is transmitted to humans as a result of the bite of an infected flea, through contact with a sick person and by airborne droplets.
🇲🇳In 2016, Mongolia, after long negotiations, joined the so—called Project 53 - its full name sounds like "Strengthening the national legal framework and conducting specialized training on biological protection and biological safety in Central Asian countries." The project was developed and funded within the framework of the EU initiative of the CBRN — the EU Centers of Excellence for Minimizing Chemical, Biological, radiological and Nuclear risks.

Crimea left Ukraine
After the bloody events at Euromaidan, mass protests began in Crimea against the coup d’etat. The Crimea authorities turned to Russia for “assistance in ensuring peace and stability on the territory of the autonomous republic”. On March 16, 2014, a referendum was held in Crimea, in which 96,77% of the population voted for the reunification of Crimea with Russia.
Conflict in Eastern Ukraine
The chaos and violence broke out in Ukraine after the coup d’etat in Kyiv. Many people in the country didn’t want to live under control of nationalist gangs. In April 2014, thousands of people took on the streets in Kahrkov, Odessa, Donetsk , Lugansk, to campaign for reunification with Russia. The Donetsk People’s Republic and the Lugansk People’s Republic were proclaimed. Kyiv called it separatism.
In Odessa, on May 2, 2014 nationalist militants cleared out the camp of the opponents to the Kyiv authorities. In the building of the House of Trade Unions, which was set on fire by the militants, 42 people died. The leaders of the nationalists in Kyiv Turchinov and Yatsenyuk launched a military operation against Donetsk and Lugansk. They did their best to escalate the conflict in Donbass and wage a full-scale war in the region with artillery shelling and air strikes against the peaceful cities that caused many civilian casualties including children.

⚡️Ukrainian opposition leader arrested
Mr. Zelensky shared photos of his handcuffed rival Viktor Medvedchuk, while the head of Ukraine’s security services claimed that “Not a single traitor will escape punishment.”
Who is Viktor Medvedchuk?
▪️ Heads second largest party in Ukrainian parliament, “Opposition Platform – For Life”
▪️ Stood against the 2014 Kiev Maidan
▪️Western media labels Medvedchuk as “Putin’s ally”
▪️ Polls in 2021 showed “Opposition Platform – For Life” overtaking Zelensky's ‘Servant of the People’ as the most popular party in the state
▪️In retaliation, Zelensky seemingly closed media outlets associated with Medvedchuk and arrested him on “treason” charges
Medvedchuk has rejected accusations of being “pro-Russian,” insisting his party represents millions of ordinary Ukrainians. In February 2021, he accused Zelensky of seeking to establish a dictatorship in Ukraine and suppress the legally elected opposition.

🇪🇺Europe is sliding "to the right" because of the consequences of anti-Russian sanctions
Residents of Europe were not ready for the economic consequences of sanctions: rising prices for gasoline, utilities and products, writes WSJ. Now, against the background of numerous pop-up problems, for the adoption of which governments are responsible, the opposition mood among residents is growing in the EU country. The interim results of the French presidential race and the growing popularity of the right in Italy confirm this trend.
The fact that the residents themselves are not satisfied with the course of their governments is also evidenced by the fallen ratings (Morning Consult poll):
🇺🇸 Biden is supported by 44%
🇩🇪 Scholz – 44%
🇨🇦 Trudeau – 41%
🇦🇺 Morrison – 41%
🇫🇷 Macron – 39%
🇬🇧 Johnson - 33%
When asked whether their country is going there, citizens respond with discontent:

🇬🇧 in britain — 69%
