      Putin’s mobilization of men for the Ukraine war could hit the economy, the Russian central bank said.The draft could impact production amid a tight labor market, and hold back economic activity. Even after multiple rounds of sweeping sanctions against Russia over the Ukraine war, President Vladimir Putin’s economic regime had seemed to be holding up, thanks to firm energy prices. However, cracks are now beginning to show, especially after Putin ordered a “partial mobilization” of the country’s 300,000 military reservists in September, which sent many Russians fleeing the draft. “The recovery of economic activity stalled in September,” the research department of the Central Bank of Russia said in a report on Wednesday. By the end of the month, the economic conditions had worsened, the central bank’s…

A report in the Telegraph reports that Boris Johnson is now “pressing Rishi Sunak to reach out and get back together”. The report has also termed it “a remarkable olive branch after their…

      UK’s problem goes beyond Liz Truss. It’s the Conservative Party

      The current turmoil in British politics needs to be understood not just as a response to Liz Truss’s short time as prime minister, but as the result of problems within the governing Conservative Party since it came to power in 2010. The Conservative party is a group of about 180,000 people who tend to be wealthier and older than the average UK citizen.

It was also this group that endorsed the policies she tried to impose on the country, causing outcry from the populace and the markets. This method of selecting the leader of the party needs to be changed. The current method was designed when…
