From Bloomberg reporter Chiranjivi Chakraborty: The cost of hedging Indian stocks has surged by the most since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic ahead of the general election’s outcome next week. The NSE India Volatility Index has risen 88% in May, the most since March 2020. In an unusual occurrence, the gauge of options prices kept creeping up even as stocks reached record highs last week. The NSE Nifty 50 Index has since slipped and the so-called India VIX ended at 24.17% on Thursday, near a two-year high. The jump in swings is predictable as investors await the June 4 results. While Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to win a third term in office, low voter turnout and reports of close contests in some states have tempered enthusiasm for elections that began on April 19.

China’s support for Russia “not only threatens Ukrainian security, it threatens European security” >US state department deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel has said, a day after Washington accused Beijing’s leadership of supporting Russia’s war and threatened further western sanctions. >US deputy secretary of state Kurt Campbell and deputy national security adviser Jon Finer met China’s vice-foreign minister Ma Zhaoxu in Washington on Thursday. >Patel declined to provide details of any future sanctions but added: “If China does not curtail its support for Russia’s defence industrial base, the US will be prepared to take further steps.” >The Biden administration issued an executive order in December that threatened sanctions on financial institutions helping Russia skirt western sanctions. >Campbell said Chinese support, “with the backing of its leadership,” was helping Moscow reconstitute elements of its military, including long-range missile, artillery and drone capabilities, and its ability to track battlefield movements.

Russian authorities are increasingly targeting children and their families as punishment for opposing the Kremlin and its invasion of Ukraine, Amnesty International said on Friday. >Since the invasion, Russian authorities have been using children to put pressure on parents, threatening to remove parental rights or place children in institutions, the rights group said in a report. >Some parents had to flee Russia with their children to avoid being separated from them. >"Despite all the Kremlin’s talk about the value of the family, it is the very bond between children and their parents that is being shamelessly exploited to crush dissent,” said Oleg Kozlovsky, Amnesty’s Russia researcher. >“In this politically motivated assault on children, schools and teachers have become tools of persecution and arbitrary interference by the state,” he said, adding that schools were indoctrinating children with “false government-mandated narratives”.

For older fighter aircraft there is usually (if not always) a life extension program in place that gives a really detailed analysis of crack growth all over the airframe. Part of the program is tracking crack growth, and almost always the cracks grow slower than predicted. And even if they don't, cracks are tracked practically flight-by-flight for these aircraft, so you can keep flying safely with cracks. Sometimes, pretty big cracks. So, they have so much knowledge of whats happening to every square inch of the structure they can squeeze a lot more out of the basic airframe than originally predicted. For systems/engines, well they are life limited, hopefully no engine is transferred that only has 20 hours left on it.	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05
Yes it was especially frustrating with the F-16s because it takes a very long time (compared to tanks for example) to train the pilots and ground crews and to prepare the supply lines. So much precious time was lost!	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05

This is in line with Scholz's Ukraine policy. He said from the start that Germany won't do anything alone	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05
Man, what have you done for Ukraine? The only reason we sent 31 tanks is because that's the smallest amount you can send and still be an effective flighting unit. The only reason we sent that is because Germany wouldn't sent leopard tanks w/o Abrams. Due to the limited amount of money Biden can use for Ukraine, I am sure Ukraine would rather have more HIMARS and Brandleys, than one of the more maintenance intense tanks.	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05

But it's not about doing it alone, it's about doing it with the US and only the US. Plenty of countries like the UK and France went ahead but Scholz waited until Biden gave the greenlight. The same thing back when it was about supplying tanks, Scholz acted like the UK didn't even exist despite pleding to send Challenger 2 tanks. Even weeks after the announcement he kept his talking point of "no nation has supplied western tanks", but the moment Biden gave the OK for the Abrams he was fine with sending Leopard 2.	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05

[Ukrainian multi-day operation disrupts Russian troop logistics in Crimea: Key details \| New Voice of Ukraine \| May 2024](https://english.nv.ua/nation/strike-on-the-port-kavkaz-afu-and-sbu-carried-out-a-joint-operation-to-destroy-russia-s-logistics-50423437.html) The Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU), working alongside SBU Security Service, conducted a multi-day operation aimed at disrupting the logistics supplying Russian troops in Crimea, NV sources revealed on May 31. Preliminary information suggests the comprehensive strike targeted substations, power supply networks, and light petroleum product reserves in Russia's Krasnodar Krai. Initially, the AFU targeted two ferries en route to Russian Port Kavkaz, a vital hub for Russian military logistics. SBU drones struck power substations supplying electricity to the Crimean Peninsula and the waters of the Kerch Strait, including ports. Port Kavkaz ferry crossing and oil terminal were also struck on the same night by the SBU, in coordination with the Ukrainian Navy. This terminal facilitated the transportation of light petroleum products into Crimea. Following the operation's success, a massive fire erupted, visible even from satellite imagery. The Russian state news agency RIA Novosti, citing local authorities, reported that overnight on May 31 an oil depot in the Temryuk district of Krasnodar Krai caught fire following a massive drone attack. Initially, the Russians claimed that three tanks containing oil products caught fire during the strike. Governor Veniamin Kondratyev stated that there were casualties among the oil depot workers. The Telegram channel Krymsky Veter later reported that the fire started at Port Kavkaz. This oil depot supplies fuel to Russian forces in the seized Crimea, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhya oblasts.	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05

I think the core question is are the gripens better than the f-16s? These aren’t the newest block of F-16a.	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05
Let's say that maintaining and operating 8-12 Gripens takes about 250 people^(\). Ukraine has 25+ million people left in the country; they have (had) no problem allocating that number of people, sending them for training in Sweden and then organize them for operations. Beyond basic operations and maintenance, the only remaining issue would be interoperability with other fighters at higher organizational levels, but the Gripen is built to interoperate with NATO fighters like the F-16 and have been training extensively with other NATO partners for a long time so this would present little additional strain. Gripen is designed to be easily maintained, including by conscripts, and to operate out of road bases. Where does this additional "nuclear submarine fleet"-level of logistics apply that you are talking about? ^(\ This is a high-ball number where we divide the personnel count of the Swedish Airforce by the number of its Gripens. This pretends the Swedish Air Force has no other planes and assumes no people work at higher staff levels, which would lower the number even more.)	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05

The strategic situation largely hasn't changed since the Russian retreat from Kyiv in March 2022. "The West" is still being asked to provide what is collectively a relatively trivial amount of supplies. The US Military Budget, at peace, is $850B per year. The entire Russian defense budget is estimated at $120B during high intensit combat. If the US were to divert 10% of defense spending and procurment to supplying the Ukrainians the US would be supplying 75% the entire Russian defense budget, by themselves. Obviously there was just a big fight over supplying $60B in support, but the point stands. This is the US by itself. The EU and UK together are a comperably sized economy to the US. Since March 2022 to today, the long run strategic outlook has been "Russia cannot do enough damage to Ukraine that could force a surrender or retreat, as long as the West is politically willing to supply them." The Russians have gotten better since 2022. They appear to have learned some very expensive lessons in places like Vulhedar, Kherson, Bakhmut and Adiivika. But even with their improvement and resupply from Iran and N. Korea, the Russians still aren't doing enough damage to the Urainians to force them out of the war if supply from the West continues. The difference is, we've spent the last 10/12 months watching exactly how shaky that support can be, especially in the United States.	r/worldnews	comment	r/worldnews	2024-31-05

Germany is the second biggest arms donor to Ukraine. They have sent far more than France, for example (which is the second biggest arms dealer in the world).

France has sent around 2.6 billion euros (and has pledged nothing more). Yet Macron is seen as the savior of Ukraine on Reddit, while Scholz is considered a Russian puppet.

From Bloomberg reporter Chiranjivi Chakraborty: The cost of hedging Indian stocks has surged by the most since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic ahead of the general election’s outcome next week. The NSE India Volatility Index has risen 88% in May, the most since March 2020. In an unusual occurrence, the gauge of options prices kept creeping up even as stocks reached record highs last week. The NSE Nifty 50 Index has since slipped and the so-called India VIX ended at 24.17% on Thursday, near a two-year high. The jump in swings is predictable as investors await the June 4 results. While Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to win a third term in office, low voter turnout and reports of close contests in some states have tempered enthusiasm for elections that began on April 19. Read the full story [here](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-05-31/hedging-costs-for-indian-stocks-up-most-in-years-on-vote-results).

China’s support for Russia “not only threatens Ukrainian security, it threatens European security” >US state department deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel has said, a day after Washington accused Beijing’s leadership of supporting Russia’s war and threatened further western sanctions. >US deputy secretary of state Kurt Campbell and deputy national security adviser Jon Finer met China’s vice-foreign minister Ma Zhaoxu in Washington on Thursday. >Patel declined to provide details of any future sanctions but added: “If China does not curtail its support for Russia’s defence industrial base, the US will be prepared to take further steps.” >The Biden administration issued an executive order in December that threatened sanctions on financial institutions helping Russia skirt western sanctions. >Campbell said Chinese support, “with the backing of its leadership,” was helping Moscow reconstitute elements of its military, including long-range missile, artillery and drone capabilities, and its ability to track battlefield movements.

It's always the same and always frustrating. We had the same stupid stalling tactics with every new major weapon system for Ukraine. "Arty / IFVs / tanks / MRLS / F-16 won't be delivered to Ukraine." A year and a lot of Ukrainian casualties later (that could've been easily prevented by directly providing the needed systems): "Rejoice Ukraine will receive X."

Russian authorities are increasingly targeting children and their families as punishment for opposing the Kremlin and its invasion of Ukraine, Amnesty International said on Friday. >Since the invasion, Russian authorities have been using children to put pressure on parents, threatening to remove parental rights or place children in institutions, the rights group said in a report. >Some parents had to flee Russia with their children to avoid being separated from them. >"Despite all the Kremlin’s talk about the value of the family, it is the very bond between children and their parents that is being shamelessly exploited to crush dissent,” said Oleg Kozlovsky, Amnesty’s Russia researcher. >“In this politically motivated assault on children, schools and teachers have become tools of persecution and arbitrary interference by the state,” he said, adding that schools were indoctrinating children with “false government-mandated narratives”.

For older fighter aircraft there is usually (if not always) a life extension program in place that gives a really detailed analysis of crack growth all over the airframe. Part of the program is tracking crack growth, and almost always the cracks grow slower than predicted. And even if they don't, cracks are tracked practically flight-by-flight for these aircraft, so you can keep flying safely with cracks. Sometimes, pretty big cracks. So, they have so much knowledge of whats happening to every square inch of the structure they can squeeze a lot more out of the basic airframe than originally predicted. For systems/engines, well they are life limited, hopefully no engine is transferred that only has 20 hours left on it.

Punishment was death to the a surrendering soldier along with the arrest of their family members. Like Stallen Putin is a tyrant thug, who just doesn't care human rights.

Man, what have you done for Ukraine? The only reason we sent 31 tanks is because that's the smallest amount you can send and still be an effective flighting unit. The only reason we sent that is because Germany wouldn't sent leopard tanks w/o Abrams. Due to the limited amount of money Biden can use for Ukraine, I am sure Ukraine would rather have more HIMARS and Brandleys, than one of the more maintenance intense tanks.

But it's not about doing it alone, it's about doing it with the US and only the US. Plenty of countries like the UK and France went ahead but Scholz waited until Biden gave the greenlight. The same thing back when it was about supplying tanks, Scholz acted like the UK didn't even exist despite pleding to send Challenger 2 tanks. Even weeks after the announcement he kept his talking point of "no nation has supplied western tanks", but the moment Biden gave the OK for the Abrams he was fine with sending Leopard 2.

SBU drones struck power substations supplying electricity to the Crimean Peninsula and the waters of the Kerch Strait, including ports.* *Port Kavkaz ferry crossing and oil terminal were also struck on the same night by the SBU, in coordination with the Ukrainian Navy. This terminal facilitated the transportation of light petroleum products into Crimea.* *Following the operation's success, a massive fire erupted, visible even from satellite imagery.* *The Russian state news agency RIA Novosti, citing local authorities, reported that overnight on May 31 an oil depot in the Temryuk district of Krasnodar Krai caught fire following a massive drone attack.* *Initially, the Russians claimed that three tanks containing oil products caught fire during the strike. Governor Veniamin Kondratyev stated that there were casualties among the oil depot workers.* *The Telegram channel Krymsky Veter later reported that the fire started at Port Kavkaz. This oil depot supplies fuel to Russian forces in the seized Crimea, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhya oblasts.*

Long-term and short-term rates are between 15-20% now and have eclipsed 10-year highs. Despite all the pressure to hold the Ruble under 100 per dollar, you're starting to see some of the long-term effects of sanctions. As this war drags on and their strategic reserves get lower and lower...there's very little Russia will have to offer and borrowing money to pay for the war will be prohibitively expensive. China may float them some loans at lower rates, but that comes at the cost of being under Chinese control.

r/worldnews

2024-31-05

Let's say that maintaining and operating 8-12 Gripens takes about 250 people^(\*). Ukraine has 25+ million people left in the country; they have (had) no problem allocating that number of people, sending them for training in Sweden and then organize them for operations. Beyond basic operations and maintenance, the only remaining issue would be interoperability with other fighters at higher organizational levels, but the Gripen is built to interoperate with NATO fighters like the F-16 and have been training extensively with other NATO partners for a long time so this would present little additional strain. Gripen is designed to be easily maintained, including by conscripts, and to operate out of road bases. Where does this additional "nuclear submarine fleet"-level of logistics apply that you are talking about? ^(\* This is a high-ball number where we divide the personnel count of the Swedish Airforce by the number of its Gripens. This pretends the Swedish Air Force has no other planes and assumes no people work at higher staff levels, which would lower the number even more.)

The strategic situation largely hasn't changed since the Russian retreat from Kyiv in March 2022. "The West" is still being asked to provide what is collectively a relatively trivial amount of supplies. The US Military Budget, at peace, is $850B per year. The entire Russian defense budget is estimated at $120B during high intensit combat. If the US were to divert 10% of defense spending and procurment to supplying the Ukrainians the US would be supplying 75% the entire Russian defense budget, by themselves. Obviously there was just a big fight over supplying $60B in support, but the point stands. This is the US by itself. The EU and UK together are a comperably sized economy to the US. Since March 2022 to today, the long run strategic outlook has been "Russia cannot do enough damage to Ukraine that could force a surrender or retreat, as long as the West is politically willing to supply them." The Russians have gotten better since 2022. They appear to have learned some very expensive lessons in places like Vulhedar, Kherson, Bakhmut and Adiivika. But even with their improvement and resupply from Iran and N. Korea, the Russians still aren't doing enough damage to the Urainians to force them out of the war if supply from the West continues. The difference is, we've spent the last 10/12 months watching exactly how shaky that support can be, especially in the United States.

Shh, Reddit can’t function unless we let people react to headlines without doing the absolute minimum due diligence by reading the actual article.

Germany's military aid to Ukraine for 2024 is set to be around 7 billion and they're thinking about doubling it next year. Germany is one of the few allies that are pulling it's weight, there's a reason they're #2 in military aid and that's despite them not having the biggest military out of the allies

Yeah, but please do not use it actually strike enemy rocket batteries 10 m past Russia borders. Do not even think of shooting down Russias planes either. Pathetic.

Germany is the second biggest arms donor to Ukraine. They have sent far more than France, for example (which is the second biggest arms dealer in the world). So far, Germany has sent around 18 billion euros worth of equipment to Ukraine (and pledged 10 billion more throughout the year). France has sent around 2.6 billion euros (and has pledged nothing more). Yet Macron is seen as the savior of Ukraine on Reddit, while Scholz is considered a Russian puppet. One thing for sure Macron is a way better communicant than Scholz ,He even manages to publicly criticize German aid to Ukraine and get away with it.

I never made that comment, you really should read more carefully before you post. i don't really care who sends what and i don't think its purposeful to constantly compare countries. What i care about is that ukraine frees his people and gets his territory back and to achieve that everyone needs to do more and that includes Germany AND France.

Centuries have shown. Germany is efficient when it has to or really want to.

While I think shutting down influencers for flaunting their wealth may be going too far, I do think social media platforms need to clamp down on anti-social behavior. Too many “prank” channels or people being assholes for fame. While I don’t think YouTube or Twitch shutting down that behavior will cause it to stop, platforms shouldn’t reward that behavior either.
