The icing on the cake is that CY Leung made the post. He might not be in politics anymore but he definitely likes to troll.

CY Leung is still the vice chairman of the CPPCC, arguably more important in politics compared to his previous positions.

Someday somehow she will realize how stupid and hypocritical she is with that "Stop Uyghur Genocide" T-shirt, with the nonexistent "Uyghur genocide" and the ongoing Gaza genocide.

Reenactment of Shinzo Abe getting turned into Swiss cheese.

Apparently it is very popular.

Chinese kids won't be doing this if Abe wasn't so egregiously unrepentant.

Foreign broadcaster a.k.a. Al-Jazeera is deemed a NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT therefore has been ordered to close.

Where are those "champions" of free speech and free press? Where are they when we need them? Not a single beep?

The emergence of Evangelicals permanently entwined the WASP with Zionism. Zionism is now an integral part of WASP. But this is not an entirely new development. British WASP in the middle-ages England and Scotland were as vehement of Zionism as the run of mill Murican Evangelical today.

British royals (and formerly Scottish) were deeply inspired by Zionism and Jewish rituals. For example, the coronation chair of the British royal family is a replica (and some say the original) of the biblical King David's throne. The stone under the throne, known as the Stone of Scones, is the original from King David's throne. The English captured it from the Scottish whom had it imported from middleast sometime during the Roman Era when the 2nd Temple (of Solomon, son of David) was destroyed.

Elon Musk is supposed to be a smart man, yet he made the false equivalency between anti-Zionist and anti-American. Or maybe he did this because he is a smart man.

Of course, they hid that part of the tape so you dont know about it.

Zionism is just WASP with talmudic characteristics.

Less jew blaming more big capital blaming, the "jews" is just a distraction from big capital(monarch, east india companies stockholder families etc) used to protect their asses for centuries.

Bondholders to Push Ukraine to Resume Debt Payments After Hiatus​

Ukraine’s lenders said Kyiv could wait to pay them back after Russian troops stormed into the country two years ago. Now, their patience is starting to run out.

A group of foreign bondholders including BlackRock and Pimco plans to press Ukraine to start paying interest on its debt again as soon as next year, according to people familiar with the matter.

The group, which holds around a fifth of Ukraine’s $20 billion of outstanding Eurobonds, recently formed a committee and hired lawyers at Weil Gotshal & Manges and bankers from PJT Partners to negotiate on its behalf.

The group wants Kyiv, which is fresh off clinching roughly $60 billion in U.S. aid, to strike a deal in which it would resume payments in exchange for forgiveness of a big chunk of the country’s outstanding debt. Some bondholders in the group have discussed the plans with senior officials in Kyiv.

A spokesman for the bondholder group said it “looks forward to engaging constructively to assist with Ukraine’s sovereign debt.”

Ukraine is preparing to start talks with the bondholders this month, and Kyiv’s advisers are working to get the U.S. and other governments on board.

That approval isn’t guaranteed. The U.S. and its allies are concerned that taxpayers’ money will wind up in bondholders’ hands if Ukraine resumes any type of debt service. The countries agreed to give Ukraine a debt holiday on roughly $4 billion of their own loans, until 2027, and have voiced concerns that bondholders could start to be repaid ahead of them.

Without a deal, Ukraine could default after the bondholder-debt holiday ends in August, tarnishing its reputation with investors and complicating its ability to borrow more.

Officials from the International Monetary Fund and some members of the bondholder group met in April in Washington, D.C., where fund representatives indicated total debt relief from the private sector might need to be higher than the bond markets currently indicate. Ukraine’s bonds trade at between 25 and 35 cents on the dollar, according to AdvantageData, implying losses as high as $15 billion.

When the bondholders agreed to a two-year debt holiday in 2022, many thought the war would be over by now.

Even though the conflict is dragging on, lenders say they are optimistic that Ukraine’s finances are stabilizing. The country has clinched crucially needed aid from the U.S. and Europe and boosted its foreign-exchange reserves to a record high in April, while Ukraine’s central bank is considering a rollback of capital controls this year.

The bondholders hope to take in as much as $500 million in annual interest payments after agreeing to debt relief. They have signaled they could be willing to provide further relief later.

Some bondholders have suggested that frozen Russian assets in Europe and North America be used to help repay some of what they are owed.

The IMF and several G-7 countries so far aren’t on board with that idea but have indicated they could support smaller interest payments between now and 2027—at well below market rates. Ukraine would be reluctant to resume a normal debt-repayment schedule before 2027 at the earliest, some of the people said.

If a deal is reached, it could be financially rewarding for investors who bought Ukraine’s bonds at bargain prices.

The U.S. and its allies are concerned that taxpayers’ money will wind up in bondholders’ hands if Ukraine resumes any type of debt service.

Now Americans will soon get to pay for all Ukrainian salaries and all public debt.

Aside from this, right wing 反贼 would accuse CPC of being Jewish puppets because CPSU had a lot of Jewish members or something something. We suspect that's why their accounts are getting picked up by the antisemitism banhammer on twitter.

Are we sure it's not cause Elon Musk made some agreements when he visited China recently?

Whatever deal he might have made, it most likely was not in his favor. Li Qiang looked extremely pleased and victorious in their side-by-side post-meeting event. And Elon looked extremely humbled/humiliated.
