 extract from the article: Beyond Trump - What can peace in Ukraine look like and what was on Putin’s mind when he started the war? Even though it has suffered heavy human and material losses, Russia is prospering from the war in Ukraine. Those who bet on Russia’s bankruptcy in a war it cannot afford have misjudged the situation. In the first year of the war, economic sanctions were completely ineffective. The EU has blocked some imports for a wide range of products, but has remained dependent on Russian gas. Even if quantities have been reduced in this segment as well, Russia has imposed price increases and made even higher profits than before the war. Thus, 2022 was the most successful year for Russia’s international trade. Only after that did the situation deteriorate to almost the level of 2016, but the trade balance remains positive. At the same time, the war economy allowed the Russian leader to force the ruble rate and consumer prices, on the one hand, and stimulated, t...

Naruto by Masashi Kishimito

-
Image
  Art or trend? The manga phenomenon has been modernized and the authors of this Japanese drawing style, computerized or computer-assisted, enjoy a fame that beats that of all painters, all Nobel prize winners and poets, living or classic, in the world. The name Masashi Kishimito still doesn't mean much in Romania. Maybe we are not modern enough because here manga has not caught on or hasn't caught on yet. This is why Masashi is less known than Mircea Dinescu and his main work, the Naruto series, less well-known than "Left Wing". The central character of the series that is making waves all over the world is Naruto Uzumaki, a hyperactive teenager who always wants to prove his qualities to those around him. He is a young ninja whose goal is to be recognized as a community leader. An anime (cybernetized animation film) was also released on this manga series (static drawings published in specialized magazines). Here are excerpts:
