Will Putin attend the BRICS summit?
2023-05-27 11:20:32
Yes
South Africa has three more months to find a way to circumvent the ICC warrant without bringing the situation to an international scandal.
There is an opinion among experts that the International Criminal Court itself does not count on the arrest of the Russian president and the issuance of a warrant is not so much a blow to Moscow as to the BRICS as a whole.
Will Putin fly to the BRICS summit and how will South Africa bypass the ICC arrest warrant?

Does it even make sense to trust rating agencies?
2022-06-11 13:52:55
No. Agencies do not cope with the basic task - they cannot objectively assess the creditworthiness of the borrower.
The company that is evaluated pays for the valuation. There is no transparent methodology for calculating the rating that can be verified. Rating agencies are not responsible for the ratings given. Geopolitical interests influence the ratings of agencies.
Usually, rating agencies seriously overestimate ratings for the country they come from.

Why do some religions forbid eating pork?
2023-04-20 14:09:41
Muslims and Jews have a religious ban on eating pork. Both religions were formed in hot countries, where such perishable and dirty meat as pork is dangerous for human health.
It is known that pigs are omnivorous - they are able to digest everything they find: from carrion to their own excrement. The animals themselves do not suffer from this, but for humans, the toxins accumulating in pork are a real poison. The sages of the past came up with the idea that it is much easier and faster to convince your loved ones that a pig is almost a fiend of hell than to explain that this meat can be dangerous to health. There is another reason - pig farming requires a lot of fresh water, and the Middle East is an arid place. Breeding pigs turns out to be unprofitable.
But initially, God's instructions about food did not contain any prohibitions. Everything that moves that lives will be your food
Why don't Jews and Muslims eat pork, but Christians do?

The problem is acute and requires an immediate solution
There is no planning, no responsibility, no punishment, no deadlines for decision-making, there is lobbying. As a result, there is a problem that takes time to solve, but it is spent on incomprehensible discussions. It is impossible to find and punish the guilty, because everyone is to blame.
When adopting a law, first of all they think about getting some benefit from its adoption, and not about a mediocre solution to the problem
