EU lawmakers clear up to 35 bln euro loan for Ukraine, using Russian assets
BRUSSELS, Oct 22 (Reuters) - European Union lawmakers on Tuesday approved the bloc's plan to use frozen Russian central bank assets to loan up to 35 billion euros ($38 billion) to its ally Ukraine.
The European Parliament voted by 518 in favour to 56 against, with 61 abstentions, for the planned loan to Kyiv in the last legislative step after EU governments agreed the plan earlier in October.
The G7 plans to provide an overall loan of $50 billion to help Ukraine, serviced by profits generated by Russian assets immobilised in the West. These assets were frozen shortly after Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
More than two-thirds of the assets, some 210 billion euros, are stuck in the 27-nation European Union, mostly with Belgium's asset safekeeping and servicing company Euroclear.

The loan is cash they're giving to Ukraine. The loan is then paid off with profits from the frozen assets. Ukraine does not need to pay for the loan.
serviced by profits generated by Russian assets immobilised in the West
Making it a loan serviced by the assets makes it a large upfront sum that can be paid off without diminishing the original sum, and also makes it all come in the form of easily-used cash

Apart from the WordPress issue. Bitwarden mixup. And Linux getting into US/Israel politics.

Can you only complain about something you have never experienced?
Well, as assholish as he is, at least that guy is honest.
If people started likewise admitting that they are genociding Ukrainians (because hey, it also hurts Russia, so it's worth it) instead of "but we are helping Ukraine!" that would already be a huge progress..

UK to lend Ukraine an additional £2.26bn for weapons to fight Russia
Britain is to lend Ukraine an additional £2.26bn and allow Kyiv to spend the money on weapons to fight off the Russian invasion as part of a wider $50bn (£38.5bn) loan programme expected to be confirmed by G7 members later this week.
The loans will be repaid using interest generated by the $300bn of frozen Russian assets held in the west, with the extra funds promised as the US heads towards a presidential election where support for Ukraine is a divisive issue.
Rachel Reeves said: “The profits being made on those assets aren’t being kept for Russia to use in the future. They’re now being used to fund Ukraine.” The chancellor made the announcement alongside the defence secretary, John Healey.

'Blade Runner 2049' Producers Sue Elon Musk, Tesla For Copyright Infringement
The production company behind “Blade Runner 2049” filed a lawsuit Monday against Elon Musk and Tesla, accusing them of copyright infringement while promoting a new self-driving car.
In its lawsuit, Alcon Entertainment says Musk used AI-generated imagery mirroring scenes from its 2017 sci-fi film while presenting Tesla’s new autonomous Robotaxi at a marketing event earlier this month. Producers had denied his request to do so.
“He did it anyway,” the suit alleges, adding that the company denied Musk’s request due to the tech mogul’s “extreme political and social views” that occasionally veer into “hate speech.” Musk enthusiastically endorsed Donald Trump for president, appearing alongside him at a rally earlier this month, and has espoused transphobic views.

Once again the ownership class pirates freely while disparaging the common folk for violating copyright.
It's almost if it's not a real law, rather something by which to disparage the proletariat.

Not only have they failed to keep NATO from expanding onto their borders, but they are now China's bitch.
Goodbye tripolar world where Russia has a say.
Goodbye any fear Europe had of Russia. They can't defeat Poland much less all of NATO.
Putin failed spectacularly and the only ones who won't admit it are the Kremlin or Republicans.

Russia having closer ties to China is the US' nightmare and is a good thing for Russia. I assume yiur "removed" reference is either misogynistic or homophobic language. Nice look.

And given that the Global North has largely de-industrialized, it’s going to find itself in a pickle. And Russia is major player in the global majority.
To everyone not buying the imperial core’s cartoonish propaganda, this is a non sequitur, because those aren’t things Russia intended or intends to do.

in reply to multitotal • • •I know reading comprehension isn't everyone's strong suit, especially if English is a second language, so I'll try to clarify.
The world used to fear Russia.
NATO was created to counter Russia.
Now, Russia is so incompetent they couldn't even defeat just one country in NATO, Poland, much less the entire alliance.
Therefore, the NATO countries have nothing to fear from Russia should Russia decide to take the war from Ukraine to NATO.
This implies Russia is a paper tiger, was bluffing, and is far less powerful than anyone feared.
Hope that helps!
