@deepakshenoy Russia's Central Bank suspends foreign currency buys until 2025 to curb market volatility as the ruble hits a 32-month low at 113/dollar.

Russia's Central Bank suspended foreign currency purchases until the end of 2024 to reduce market volatility, as the ruble hits its lowest level in 32 months, trading at 113 to the dollar. Deferred purchases will be made in 2025.
When the Russian government paper has headlines like “Panic attack for Russia’s currency market” you know there’s a problem. Today’s Russian papers focus on the falling rouble. One paper notes that “news from the currency markets resembled reports from a war zone” #ReadingRussia
🇷🇺 As inflation and interest rates reach new heights in Russia, businesses and consumers are paying the price for the Kremlin's costly invasion of Ukraine. 📉
#StandWithUkraine🇺🇦
Kremlin tries to reassure panicking Russians over collapsing rouble.
War and sanctions hit economy much harder than Moscow predicted, analysts say apple.news/AK3vDy5NVRvCE3…
Nice to see Putin paying for weapons for the Ukrainians. We now need to take all of the Russian reserves held in the West and use them for the same purpose
France will deliver a military aid package to Ukraine in the coming weeks, which will include missiles primarily funded by revenues from frozen Russian assets, French Defense Minister Lecornu announced.
Mike Martin MP @thrashedthought writes clearly and concisely on the Ukraine war.

Well said. We need to give Ukraine not just the interest but the principal of Russia's 300bn frozen assets in the west. Ukraine is fighting for its existence and for European security. This is the least that can be done. A legal response to Russia's illegal war on Ukraine.
Cyprus has decided to join NATO.
The country's leadership has already developed a detailed plan for joining NATO, which has been approved by the United States.
Key points about NATO enlargement:
1. No country has ever been forced to join NATO
2. All new members must first apply and meet rigorous standards
3. The vast majority of new members since 1991 have joined due to fear of Russian aggression
4. NATO has never attacked Russia
Appeasing dictators is like feeding the beast: ultimately, it bites back. I hope the US will ensure a fair peace, and won’t push for hollow deals.

Having been Acting Chair (Chair, Steering Group) this year, I'm delighted to have been elected as Chair of the Liberal Democrat Friends of Ukraine (Twitter: @LibDemFofU) at our AGM for the two year term 2025/2026, unopposed 🇺🇦
I'm excited by the opportunity that we we have to make a difference, in cooperation with the Party, with fellow AOs, and with our membership. The cause is just. We will support Ukraine's cause in upholding democracy in the face of tyranny 🇺🇦
We must provide more weapons to Ukraine, provide humanitarian & reconstruction aid, support Ukrainians in the UK, and foster closer political ties. We must divert those substantial ill-gotten Russian assets in the UK to Ukraine 🇺🇦
@LondonLibDems@LibDemFofU#SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦
We must give Ukraine the support it needs to win its existential war with Russia. This includes the repurposing of frozen Russian assets for the defence of Ukraine. It is vital that Russia is not seen to benefit from Putin's aggression.
It was a great pleasure and an honour to welcome Yuriy Tyrkus & @InnaYehorova from the Ukrainian Embassy to the National Liberal Club on the occasion of the Ukrainian Circle's inaugural event. Thank you, Yurii & Inna @UkrEmbLondon 🇺🇦
We stand with Ukraine! #SlavaUkraini 🇬🇧 🇺🇦
