EU moves toward unlocking €210bn for Ukraine—Kremlin responds with threats to nationalise foreign firms.

Exit now.

Funding Ukraine’s defence over 4 years will cost European countries between $606 and $972bn, but it would cost them almost double, between $1.4 and $1.8 trillion, to reinforce its eastern flank if Moscow gets its way, according to a new study by B4Ukraine member Corisk. bit.ly/4oAKokE

🔥 Join us in demanding an end to corporate complicity in Russia’s war. As the holiday season kicks in and people begin shopping for Christmas gifts, global firms—many of which are still in Russia—stand ready to profit despite fueling an ongoing war and human suffering. We must hold them accountable.

@dekleptocracy.bsky.social: chemicals used to produce mechanical lubricants and military-grade tyres represent a critical weak spot for Russia that US/EU/UK could exploit. Russia cannot produce the chemicals required for these lubricants and relies on one Chinese firm for its supply. bit.ly/43ZzBcC

Australia is the world’s #1 importer of Russian oil refined in 3rd countries = $2B to Russia since 2023.
Senator Sharma calls on the gov to close this loophole. "Get in step with our allies, support Ukraine, and not contribute a further cent, a further dollar, to Russia's illegal and immoral war.”

#Aviva, a leader in ESG investing, must act.
#PepsiCo continues paying hundreds of millions in taxes to the Kremlin.
Staying invested in such a company contradicts Aviva’s corporate values.
We call on Aviva to divest from #Pepsi — proving that ESG leadership and human dignity are more than words.
