A personal 🧵about my ongoing odyssey of getting out of #Russia. For more than 53 hours I have been trying to get from Siberia to Brussels. 1/
We left Bratsk, Irkutstaya oblast' (see map) on Sunday at 9:30. After a tight connection of getting from Domodedovo to @svoglobal through the entirety of #Moscow, we arrived with our @aeroflot Brussels flight still scheduled. 2/ Image
Side note – I went to see my family whom I haven’t seen for 4 years for a week, arriving on the 19 Feb, Saturday, before the invasion. Why then? Because I have finally turned 27 the week before, meaning I have run out the clock on my mandatory military service. Except... 3/

On sidelines and in society, they are discussing that a war may start in #Ukraine, and the #Fed will raise rates ahead of time. How will this end for the markets?

Spoiler alert: the Russian market could be halved. #MOEX

Thread 🧵👇
Judging by experience of falls of past years, Russian market may fall by another 30% -50% from current levels.

• 2008 #RTS index fell by 80%
• 2014 - by 50%
• 2020 - by 50%

Market has corrected by 22% from the local maximum - potential for a fall by 30% remains.

Growth of quotations this week is unlikely:

• Quadruple witching - expiration of futures and options can become a point of trend reversal (as it was in March 2020).

💵 Wednesday: Fed meeting. If #Fed announces acceleration of monetary tightening, it could collapse markets.

Small service - big tasks
#thread

Luxembourg played an active role in the Cold War. For the Soviet bloc it was an important gateway for intelligence operations. The State Intelligence Service #SRE is unable to cope with its tasks. Assistance comes from abroad 1/13
Under Soviet pressure exerted since the late 1960's, Luxembourg agreed to sign an air traffic memorandum with the USSR in 1974 and a formal agreement in 1975. Shortly afterwards #Aeroflot opens a travel agency in Luxembourg city 2/13
Another service moves into the office building in 35, rue Glesener a little later. Above the travel agency the #SRE intelligence service operates a covert office. All movements at Aeroflot are monitored and registered 3/13

Aeroflot started up in 1923 as "Dobrolet" (a name it briefly used for its low cost subsidiary in 2013/14), first aircraft was...a Junkers F13! 1/n
The Junkers F13 was a really interesting aircraft, truly advanced to its time. German luaggage maker @RIMOWA re-built one from scratch recently. We were there for the 1st flight!-> allplane.tv/blog/2016/9/19… 2/n
But back to #Aeroflot : first flight was to Nizhny Novgorod, some 400km east of moscow, a distance that could be theoretically covered in 4h, but took much longer because of repeated technical issues 3/n
