Unilever still chooses to stay in ๐ท๐บ and paid about $50 million in taxes to the budget of the Russian Federation in 2022 thus supporting the war efforts. All Western companies must leave ๐ท๐บ and stop being complicit in the war.

- Well deserved ๐บ๐ฆOrder of Merit for Michael McFaul
- we estimate that Russia has lost $140-170 bn in oil and gas revenues since Russiaโs invasion. Russian oil and gas revenues have fallen sharply this year, reflected in a two-thirds decline in Russiaโs trade surplus and a 50% decline in oil and gas budget revenues
- โWe can chase down dozens and hundreds of shell companies used to circumvent sanctions. But it is the manufacturer who knows who they are selling to, even if there are intermediariesโ, says Pavlo Verkhniatskyi forbes.com/sites/kenrapozโฆ
- Wow Canada just announced sanctions against ๐ท๐บpropagandists! So many familiar names: - Russia Today - Oleg Gazmanov - Irina Allegrova - Nikolay Baskov - Dima Bilan Keep going๐ช๐ป
- This night: a record high 110 missiles strike. Kindzhal, S-300, X-101, X-59... A lot of sanctions measures have been done, a lot of enforcement has to be done to stop russians produce missiles.
- SANCTIONS UPDATE. Sanctions pressure on ๐ท๐บ has increased slightly over the past week. There is progress in strengthening sanctions on individuals, SOEs, and trade, making now 36% accomplished. Work on the rest continues. @Nataliia_Shapo @vladvlas 1/5
- ๐ท๐บ is extremely active in using drones for massive attacks on infrastructure, civilian and military targets in ๐บ๐ฆ, so it is very disturbing to see that important components for the production of hostile UAVs come from different countries โย @AndriyYermak
- President Zelensky about our suggestion on individual sanctions on propagandists who support terror agains Ukraine. @McFaul @AndriyYermak @vladvlas @daria_sofina
00:00 - Working Group Paper #15 Why and How the West Should Seize Russiaโs Sovereign Assets to Help Rebuild Ukraine @anders_aslund fsi9-prod.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/20โฆ
- A ban on Russian imports should remain the priority. But an interim measure designed to stem Moscowโs profits from energy sales more quickly โ a punitive EU tariff on Russian oil, proposed by the US and others โ is worth looking at too.
- Russia is changing the procedure for determining oil prices used to calculate taxes. Now the oil companies will have to pay more, even though the URALS price is decreasing. Sanctions do work, making Russia to run out of money.
- What sanctions against Russia would you impose? Please suggest: new ideas, or extension of the existing sanctions...
