    The point about Serbia and perceptions was well made. We have seen this before, for example in Central Europe as democracies began to fall, small nations in the Balkans, faced with Communist Soviet Union and Fascist Germany, were obliged to bend their foreign policies to accommodate the realiies. Sweden did something similar when their neutrality was pressed by the Germans. When the democratic coalition shows itself to be weak and vacillating, it provides impetus for otherwise neutral nations to reconsider their choices in a dangerous world.

    Russia's international reserves as of September 20, 2024, amounted to $625.2 bln, having increased by $8.2 bln in a week, according to the Bank of Russia.
    "International reserves as of the end of the day on September 20, 2024 amounted to $625.2 bln, increasing over the week by $8.2 bln, or 1.3%, mainly due to positive revaluation," the regulator's materials note.
    As of September 13, the volume of reserves amounted to $617 bln.
    Russia’s international reserves are highly liquid foreign assets available with the Bank of Russia and the Russian government. They comprise foreign currency, Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), a reserve position in the International Monetary Fund and monetary gold. Following the onset of Moscow’s special military operation in Ukraine Western countries slapped sanctions against the Bank of Russia. Apart from freezing Russia’s gold and foreign currency reserves, all transactions related to management of the regulator’s reserves and assets, as well as transactions with any legal entity, organization or body acting on behalf or at the direction of the Central Bank, were prohibited.

    I like the podcast but the ad at the beginning was both unexpected and annoying. Despite the quality of your reporting if that becomes a habit I'm going elsewhere for my news. Ad creep infiltrating EVERYTHING is completely offensive and needs to be stamped out.

    Really don’t like the latest advert approach kicking off right at the beginning before the pod even starts! Please desist😊
