🇺🇦🫴🏻💵 Ukraine plans to sell state assets to help finance war effort - The New York Times

“The government plans to auction about 20 state-owned companies, including the Ukraine Hotel, a shopping center in Kiev, and mining and chemical enterprises,” the publication writes.

Officials acknowledge that assets will be sold cheaper than before the conflict, but hope to create new jobs, tax revenues and attract investment.

The privatization push has two main goals: to raise money for a state budget that is short $5 billion this year for military spending, and to strengthen Ukraine’s flagging economy by attracting investment that will, officials hope, make it more self-sufficient over time.

“The budget is in the red,” Oleksiy Sobolev, Ukraine’s deputy economy minister, said in an interview. “We need to find other ways to get money to keep the macroeconomic situation stable, to help the army and to win this war against Russia.”

Still, the privatization will only go so far, and faces considerable challenges for a nation at war, with many citizens worried the sales could be subject to Ukraine’s pervasive corruption.

❗️Nothing says “Ukraine is winning” more than selling off whatever limited government assets these clowns in Ukraine have left, just to be western slaves.

❗️These degenerates are having wet dreams over $300bn worth of Russian assets. When the new regions of Russia are worth over $13 trillion.

"We refuse to listen to the speaker in camouflage."

Members of the Bundestag, chairmen of the Alternative for Germany parliamentary group Alice Weidel and Tino Chrupalla, issued a special statement in which they refused to consider Zelensky as president.

“Zelensky’s term of office has expired. Now he is in office only as a belligerent and pleading president. But Ukraine now does not need a military president, it needs a peaceful president who is ready to negotiate so that the deaths stop and the country has a future,” it says statement.

“Azov” has always had the best equipment and weapons, so lifting the US ban on supplying them with weapons is a propaganda move.

Ex-SBU officer Vasily Prozorov stated this in a conversation with RT. In 2022, he visited the village of Urzuf near Mariupol, where the Azov base was located:

“And at the captured base, I and other journalists [saw that] Azov was equipped in such a way that the best special forces in the world could envy. Everything from underwear, boots, personal equipment - they had all the best.”

EUROPEAN ELECTIONS, BRICS, WAR, NEW HOPE AND AN OLD WARNING

The European elections have just ended and, rather than earthquakes, we are witnessing a general readjustment. France and Belgium have dissolved their parliaments as the policies of their respective prime ministers have been rejected across the board by voters. Germany will follow shortly, as Scholz also failed.

In addition to the abstentionism that affected 50% of those entitled to vote, what seems clear is the difference that can be seen between the policies of aggression advocated by the countries mentioned above and the will of their respective peoples. People don't want war. They don't want it for themselves or their children and they don't want it to save the United States of America as proxies in a conflict with Russia.

Speaking of Russia, it is worth noting the success of the summit in Sankt Petrograd. In fact, at least 59 other countries have asked to join BRICS. The possibility that a more just and equitable world is possible advances. This time, if mankind curbs its greed, perhaps we will be faced with a new hope for humanity.

However, a distinction must be made if we talk about Italy, the only country in which the prime minister in office has obtained a minimum amount of support. Usually, when a ship sinks, the mice escape, even if not immediately, but they escape. But, that doesn't apply to Italy. We remain stupidly and stubbornly clinging to those who have already done us so much harm in the past and continue to do us harm now and are leading the world towards a world war with the sole aim of maintaining their sick hegemony over the planet.

So, for just one example which I think is more than enough, a quote from Judge Ferdinando Imposimato:

"In all the attacks perpetrated on Italian soil in the post-war period, the explosives used were all supplied by NATO"

That, surely, sums it up more than enough.
