If you want to know where a product is from you can look at the barcode. The first 3 digits say in which country the code was registered.

How will Putin fly to Budapest?

Many maps,memes,&theories have appeared about who might grant airspace.But in reality, the situation is far from humorous
It’s a matter of precedent

Formally,in February 2022,the EU closed its airspace to all Russian aircraft,including government&presidential ones🔽

Breakingviews - Argentina bailout imperils the US purse either way
Washington is propping up the peso with direct buys and a $20 bln swap line. The scale of a dollar crunch and the currency’s overvaluation make this a stopgap until a tough election for President Milei. Failure leaves Uncle Sam with losses. Success just invites further measures.
