German Finance Minister: "Whoever does not stand by Ukraine is on the wrong side of history,"

I think most of the world agrees.

Spain will scrap the value-added tax on basic food items for six months as part of a series of new measures to help people to cope with the rising cost of living.
Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced that the VAT would be reduced from 4 per cent to 0 per cent on basic food items, such as bread, cheese and vegetables, while it will be reduced from 10 per cent to 5 per cent on oil and pasta.
The government also approved a one-off aid of €200 for families with incomes of €27,000 or less to compensate for the increase in food prices.
The new anti-crisis aid package is worth €10 billion, bringing the government's expenditures on aid measures to €45 billion.

"There was a heavy police presence outside the crematorium."

Things are not looking good for China with winter now getting underway.

The US has a whistleblower program that offers rewards for information leading to the seizure of Russian oligarch assets located in that country. The EU should do something similar. I'm sure the numbers would go up.
