The Spanish edition predicts a difficult period for the AFU until March 2023.

The media believe that Ukraine is in a crisis situation on the eve of winter.

According to the author of Rebelión (Spain) Fabrizio Casari, Kiev confidently declares its imminent victory over Russia in the conflict, but about 50% of Ukrainians live without electricity due to frequent outages of the resource as part of the savings announced by the authorities.

The journalist points out that even before the onset of General Winter, the streets of the country’s settlements are already “littered with snow”.

He makes a sad conclusion that the authorities have yet to face a “real tragedy.”

Against the background of the global economic crisis, Kazari points out, the United States and its allies cannot provide even more assistance to Ukraine, and there is not enough of it left.

In addition, the authorities of both the European Union and the States are pretty tired of Zelensky’s arrogance.

The journalist believes that they are not ready for big sacrifices.

Kazari believes that serious cold weather will continue in Ukraine from the coming December to March 2023, and throughout this period the APU will face great difficulties.

She is already “disoriented”, and allows herself to enter only those settlements that were previously abandoned by Russian troops.

Earlier, Topnews wrote that Russia’s permanent representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzia, explained why the objects of the energy infrastructure of Ukraine are being attacked by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

The publication summed up the impact of sanctions on the alternative payment system.

Analysts of the Bloomberg edition came to the conclusion that against the background of the termination of the Russian payment system “Mir” in 6 of the 9 countries in which it worked, the system failed.

According to experts, Russia failed to introduce its alternative to the current American Visa and European Mastercard due to the refusal of banks to support it against the background of economic anti-Russian sanctions.

Such financial isolation and threats to friendly credit institutions from unfriendly countries led to the Bank of Russia’s surprising refusal to serve the world.

Bloomberg sources reported that, at the moment, the Central Bank is busy looking for an alternative.

Viktor Dostov, President of the Russian Association of Electronic Money and Money Transfer Market Participants, quoted by Kommersant, explained what caused the refusal of credit institutions.

In his opinion, the authorities’ fear of secondary sanctions outweighs the attractiveness of commission income.

As a result, Russians abroad are forced to use “partial solutions”, because they are equally inaccessible to both the World and foreign Visa and Mastercard.

Earlier, Topnews wrote that since the end of September, banks in Turkey, Kazakhstan, Vietnam and Armenia have suspended work with Russian Mir cards.

Also, the payment system does not work in Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan. Sri Lanka, did not work with the “World” at the negotiation stage.

The media found out the average amount of the allowance.

The President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin signed the federal law “On universal benefits for pregnant women and citizens with children ”. The goal is to create a unified social support system for Russian families with children and reduce the risk of poverty in this category of society.

According to “Rossiyskaya Gazeta” with reference to the document, the new unified benefit, which can be obtained by writing a statement about the need for support, will cover about 10 million recipients.

Now one payment will include benefits that are given to women who are registered as pregnant up to 12 weeks and monthly child benefits. Instead, the state will pay a monthly allowance in connection with the birth and upbringing of a child.

If there are several children under 17 in the family, the allowance will be assigned to each of them separately. The allowance will be paid to the family from the moment the child is born. Recipients must be Russians who have citizenship and permanent residence in the Russian Federation.

It is reported that the law will come into force on January 1 next year.  The amount of the benefit depends on the regional subsistence minimum and also amounts to 50, 75 or 100% of it.

In addition, payments will be received by families whose income per person is below the regional subsistence minimum at the place of residence or stay.  The need assessment will be carried out on a comprehensive basis, taking into account family income, property security and labor potential.

Also, families with an income below PM per person will be able to make a monthly payment at the expense of the mother capital, without taking into account the number of children, even if there is no second child in the family.

The Ministry of Labor clarifies that the rules for the appointment of payments will be the same as for child benefits for toddlers 3 – 8 years and 8 – 17 years.

As for the amount of the allowance, it will be 50, 75 or 100% of the regional PM for children. However, the authors took into account the level of per capita family income and other indicators. The average size, the media notes, will be 7,000, 10,500 and 14,000 rubles.

Earlier, Topnews wrote that Putin called the size of the monthly allowance for the mobilized.

The verdict affected five more construction companies.

The Polish Competition and Consumer Protection Authority (UOKiK) has announced that the penalties against the Russian company Gazprom in the amount of 29.08 billion zlotys (6.46 billion euros) have been canceled.

The antimonopoly agency calls the reason for the cancellation of the decision of the Polish Court for Competition and Consumer Protection.

The Russian monopolist had to pay a large sum for starting the construction of the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline.

All five companies that took part in the construction also received fines, the total amount of which is 52 million euros. The Polish court made a similar decision on them.

For its part, UOKiK states that it intends to appeal the court’s decision.

The agency explained that the court called the reason for the cancellation of the fine the absence of a single enterprise for all six companies, which is why it is impossible to determine what consequences their actions will cause for the country’s economy.

In addition, the judges decided that the expert assessment of UOKiK is incorrect, because the department does not have the competence to assess the attempts of companies to circumvent the law.

It is known that UOKiK, in addition to Gazprom, fined Royal Dutch Shell, OMV, Engie, Uniper and Wintershall.

It happened on October 7, 2020. Now the completed gas pipeline is not in operation.

Earlier, Topnews wrote that Gazprom played on the demands of Siemens and signed a verdict to Europe.

The situation is connected with the sanctions policy.

According to a study by the HeadHunter job search service, the actual salary in Russia increased in the third quarter of 2022 by an average of 6.4% compared to the same period in 2021.

The amount of the average salary in Russia was 90.5 thousand rubles before taxes.

Employers were forced to launch a salary race in the fields of construction and logistics due to a shortage of personnel.

Another trend of sanctions, researchers call the increased encouragement of bonuses and bonuses of managerial and expert managers in comparison with top management.

According to analysts, this is due to the increased value of such management due to their activities to overcome the crisis.

Most of all, in the third quarter of 2022, salaries of employees engaged in construction and transport logistics increased by 10% and 9%, respectively, or up to 68.8 and 58.6 thousand rubles of salary in monetary terms.

According to the researchers’ forecast, if the crisis drags on, state-owned companies and budget institutions will become the main employers in the coming years.

Experts also predict a shortage of workers in the labor market and engineers.

Earlier, topNews wrote that the United States decided to impose sanctions against Iran.

This decision is connected with Washington’s opinion that Tehran is helping Moscow.

The other day in Kiev, they complained about a massive attack aimed at destroying the power system, but then Zelensky announced its restoration.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation recently launched a massive missile attack on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine.

On November 15, the most powerful attack on power generation facilities and transmission systems took place.

According to the Ukrainian Interior Minister Denis Monastyrsky, more than 30 infrastructure facilities of Ukraine were damaged, but the next day the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky announced the restoration.

According to him, on November 16, the supply of eight million consumers was restored, while 10 million people remained without electricity.

However, experts are skeptical about the statements of the Ukrainian authorities, noting that residents of Ukraine still face a rolling blackout and live according to schedule, and this has been happening for more than a month.

Nevertheless, the country’s railways are working, and the APU always have access to electricity.

Analysts explain this by the fact that Ukraine has a large margin of safety of the energy system, so the destruction of several substations allows you to switch to the mode of transferring capacity flows through other facilities.

However, with each attack, such opportunities are becoming less and less.

After a missile strike, it may turn out that not the entire substation is out of order, and due to the parallelization of systems at energy facilities, it allows you to resume supply through other lines even when transformers are destroyed.

As “Notepad” writes with reference to Ukrainian analyst Yuriy Korolchuk, the situation is affected by the weakening of the power system with each attack, lack of equipment for repair and high consumption in the central region of Ukraine.

At the moment, only one of the 4 large transformers in the Kiev energy market has remained intact.

At the same time, with the cooling, according to Korolchuk, it will become much more difficult to restore, and electricity consumption will increase by at least 10%.

“If there is no electricity most of the day (18 hours out of 24), the heating system is unlikely to be able to work normally, ”, – he is sure.

The expert suggested that the Kiev authorities may raise the topic of evacuation of residents.

Earlier, topNews wrote that a military expert revealed the reasons for a massive missile strike by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on Ukraine.

According to the expert, the attacks are in the nature of finishing.

Russian President Vladimir Putin appealed to banks to stop “drinking blood from people to the grave.”

“Banks.. they drink blood from people right to the grave,” Putin said.

The Russian President called for stopping this process. Speaking about loans to pensioners, he said that he expects banks to take a more responsible approach to consumer lending.

Earlier, Topnews wrote that 45 banks using foreign capital in their activities were banned in Russia.

In total, the carrier has four Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft.

The media reports on the disassembly of two of the four domestic Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft for spare parts. This decision was made by the Yakutia Airline in relation to the boards leased from the State Transport Leasing Company.

The Vedomosti newspaper, referring to its sources, the leadership of Yakutia decided to disassemble the planes after their inspection.

It will be impossible to restore the sides: they no longer have marching power plants and other basic spare parts.

The Irkut enterprise, where SSJ 100 is produced, reported that carriers will not be able to buy parts – Western sanctions are in effect in the country.

In addition, neither the engine nor the model of the aircraft received certificates.

At the same time, GTLK is preparing to withdraw the liners from Yakutia – lease agreements will be terminated.

The airline has accumulated a debt to the lessor in the amount of over 1.5 billion rubles. And at the same time, in 2021-2022, Yakutia allocated significant subsidies from the state budget.

The interlocutors of Vedomosti also revealed that Yakutia may have up to 80% of the fleet of aircraft faulty.

According to the Federal Air Transport Agency, the carrier has only 15 aircraft left for November 2022. Although the website of Yakutia says about more than 20 boards of Western and Russian production.

Recall that airlines in Russia have been sanctioned. Unable to obtain insurance, spare parts, new aircraft, carriers began to disassemble the aircraft for parts.

As Topnews wrote earlier, in August 2022, Reuters was the first to report “cannibalism” in the aviation industry. Aeroflot was one of the first to start disassembling its aircraft for spare parts.
