EU - what's next?

Stvari su se prosto izmenile, nikakve "sankcije" nisu potrebne. Sad su sankcije prosto kad te stave na default režim rada.

Chancellor Olaf #Scholz on enlargement to Balkans six:

“I just want to say: This [#enlargement] should be done as quickly as possible. The Thessaloniki conclusions are 19 years old. Nobody thought at the time that it would take 20 years. That's why it has to be fast now.” pic.twitter.com/1odvReu2oh

Germany, the region’s biggest economy, will shrink more than any other euro-zone member in 2023, the forecasts show. In the wider EU, the only other country seen suffering as badly is Sweden. 

Out of 15 euro-zone countries on which the Commission provided a quarterly forecast for gross domestic product, every one of them is seen suffering at least one three-month period of contraction. 

“The EU economy is at a turning point” and the outlook “has weakened significantly,” Economy Commissioner Paolo Gentiloni told reporters in Brussels. “Inflation has continued to rise faster than expected, but we believe that the peak is near.”

While bleak, the outlook from Brussels is probably still too optimistic, according to Maeva Cousin, a senior economist at Bloomberg Economics. Forecasts she has compiled with colleagues show a 0.1% contraction in 2023 rather than the small increase in output anticipated by the Commission.

The ECB’s December forecasts are likely to be similar to the Commission’s, European Central Bank Vice President Luis de Guindos said at an event in northeastern Spain on Friday. 

He shared Gentiloni’s gloomy outlook for the winter, saying that it’s “very likely that we have negative growth in the fourth quarter that could continue in the first quarter.”

I kod nas možemo očekivati bdp u minusu u zadnjem kvartalu ove i prvom kvartalu 2023. godine, dakle recesiju u formalnom smislu.

Hundreds of thousands of protesters choked central Madrid on Sunday in support of the region’s public healthcare services.
Organizers say 670,000 people took to the streets, while the government estimates that around 200,000 protestors showed up.
Under the motto “Madrid rises up to defend public health,” residents of the region of Madrid expressed their outrage over the conservative government’s cuts and plans for public healthcare in the region.
For nearly a week, doctors working at Madrid’s 24-hour clinics have been on strike to denounce “the chaos” of a plan to add more clinics without hiring enough new staff. They say doctors are unable to properly serve patients under current conditions.
Unions representing around 5,000 family doctors in Madrid have also said they will join the indefinite strike from Nov. 21.
“Madrid’s public health is in critical condition. We’ve gone from the applause of the pandemic to being totally forgotten,” Monica, a nurse, told Spanish broadcaster RTVE at the protest on Sunday.
Although Madrid is one of the wealthiest parts of Spain, it has the country's second-lowest ratio of family doctors per person. It is at the back of the list regarding nurses and spends the second-least amount of money on public health care per capita.
Isabel Diaz Ayuso, the region’s leader [of the People's Party], who has been accused of trying to dismantle the public healthcare system, has called the strikes a “boycott” and said the protests are politically motivated.
Ayuso was also heavily criticized by members of the healthcare sector when she became the most outspoken political leader in Spain to speak out against lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Sunday, protesters carried large caricatures of the Madrid leader and chanted for her resignation.
One of the protesters included famous film director Pedro Almodovar. Speaking to Spanish daily El Pais, he said he was marching because “the question of public healthcare is absolutely transversal and affects everyone."
Sunday’s massive protest also included a minute of silence for the thousands of people who lost their lives in Madrid senior care homes during the pandemic.
In 2020, Madrid residents saw their life expectancy drop more dramatically than anywhere else in Europe — from 85.8 to 82.3 years— according to Eurostat.

Iako je zajednica sa najvećim prihodom po glavi stanovnika, Madrid najmanje ulaže u primarnu negu i ima najmanje zdravstvenih centara na 100.000 stanovnika

Deep Euro zone recession is coming. We've never seen German consumer confidence nose-dive the way it has this year. Consumer confidence took out the 2020 lows during COVID a long time ago.

Nine months after invading Ukraine, Vladimir Putin is beginning to fracture the West.

Furious with Joe Biden, top European officials now accuse the Americans of making a fortune from the war, while EU countries suffer.

Nije samo genocid, ali ko će da brine o tome - neka mrtvi sahranjuju mrtve.

“The great dying of the indigenous peoples of the Americas resulted in a human-driven global impact on the Earth system in the two centuries prior to the Industrial Revolution,” wrote the UCL team of Alexander Koch, Chris Brierley, Mark Maslin and Simon Lewis.

The drop in temperature during this period is known as the “Little Ice Age”, a time when the River Thames in London would regularly freeze over, snowstorms were common in Portugal and disrupted agriculture caused famines in several European countries.

The UCL researchers found that the European colonization of the Americas indirectly contributed to this colder period by causing the deaths of about 56 million people by 1600. The study attributes the deaths to factors including introduced disease, such as smallpox and measles, as well as warfare and societal collapse.
