💩 The Russian division of METRO transferred 1 billion rubles to the Russian army without the brand owners' consent, – DW

Metro Cash & Carry – the Russian division of the German hypermarket chain METRO – donated 1 billion rubles (about $12,1 million) to a fund that buys equipment for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the parent company Metro AG told DW that it did not approve this transfer.

Recall that in September 28 Putin handed the Russian “daughter” of Metro over to the control of local oligarchs, after which the German company lost any influence over its decisions.

Moreover, according to DW, this year similar donations after coming under Russian control were made by the Polish Can-Pack (1,5 billion rubles), the Dutch Akzo Nobel (1 billion) and the Danish Rockwool (600 million).

Earlier, the National Agency on Corruption Prevention added Metro Cash & Carry to the list of international sponsors of the war because of its continued operations in Russia.

💩 Российское подразделение METRO перечислило 1 млрд рублей на армию рф без согласия владельцев бренда, – DW

Metro Cash & Carry – российское подразделение немецкой сети гипермаркетов METRO – пожертвовало 1 млрд рублей (около $12,1 млн) фонду, закупающему оборудование для всрф. При этом материнская компания Metro AG сообщила DW, что не одобряла этот перевод.

Напомним, 28 сентября путин передал российскую "дочку" Metro под контроль местных олигархов, после чего немецкая компания утратила какое либо влияние на ее решения.

Более того, по данным DW, в этом году аналогичные пожертвования после перехода под контроль рф сделали польская Can-Pack (1,5 млрд рублей), нидерландская Akzo Nobel (1 млрд) и датская Rockwool (600 млн).

Ранее НАЗК внесло Metro Cash & Carry в перечень международных спонсоров войны из-за продолжения работы в рф.

😶 “We’ll deal with Cuba on the way back from Iran”: Trump hinted again at using military force against Havana “We’ll deal with Cuba on the way back from Iran [...] Our beautiful ships will sail past Cuba and one of them will stop about 50 yards off the coast. Then they will raise their hands, and we’ll send Marco Rubio to them to finish the deal,” said the peace prize contender. To clarify, by “the deal” Trump likely means political concessions by the Cuban government, up to and including its c...

😵 Trump suggested imposing 200% tariffs against Ukraine and Russia, but clarified that it would probably not work “Tariffs helped us finish whole 8 wars [...] Maybe we should immediately apply this approach to Ukraine and Russia. I had never thought of that before. Although we don’t buy that much from them for it to make sense. So it still wouldn’t work,” he said at one of his rallies.
