A watch worn by those who aren’t afraid to stand out, the daring souls that conquer the space, sea, and polar regions. But the history of the Raketa watch factory goes back 300 years, to the time of Peter the Great. Since then, it has produced the Kremlin Stars, the first watch to go to space, Raketa, and then…it almost collapsed with the fall of the Soviet Union. That’s until an Englishman came into the picture and made it his mission to keep the wheels turning. Meet David Henderson-Stewart, the CEO of Raketa and the man behind its revival.

Thanks to David, Raketa has taken flight not only in Russia but onto the global stage as well. 🌍 I sat down with him in his Moscow creative studio to discuss why making a watch is almost as difficult as sending a rocket into space. 🚀 I also had the opportunity to tour the Raketa factory in ...

BlackRock drops Ukraine fund – Bloomberg

Investors have reportedly lost interest in the massive reconstruction endowment that last year was targeting raising $15 billion

US investment holding BlackRock stopped its search for investors to back a multi-billion dollar fund for rebuilding Ukraine earlier this year, Bloomberg has reported. Interest reportedly dropped after President Donald Trump retook the White House.

The fund was set to be unveiled at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome next week. It had been close to securing backing from firms supported by the governments of Germany, Italy, and Poland, the outlet wrote on Saturday, citing anonymous sources.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
