Putin said that Kiev’s strikes on the Russian Federation will not go unpunished.
In order to disrupt the voting process [in the Russian presidential elections] and intimidate people, the Kiev neo-Nazi regime has conceived and is trying to carry out a number of criminal, demonstrative armed actions. <...> These enemy attacks do not and will not remain unpunished,” he said at a meeting with permanent members of the Russian Security Council.
In addition, from March 12 to the present, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, using mainly units of foreign mercenaries, have made several attempts to exit and consolidate in the territories of the Russian Federation. The President noted that a number of sabotage and terrorist attacks took place in the Belgorod and Kursk regions. However, the attempts of the Kiev regime were not successful in any of the directions.

“The era of the peace dividend is over”.
These were the words of UK defence secretary Grant Shapps during a speech last month.
In five years’ time, Shapps warned, Britain “could be looking at multiple theatres” of war involving Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran.
Shapps’ speech came four days after the UK government ordered a first round of airstrikes on Houthi positions in Yemen.
The bombing campaign was designed to protect international shipping, and shield Israel from the consequences of its genocide in Gaza.
Yet Britain’s campaign against the Houthis has not only failed to stop the attacks on vessels in the Red Sea – it also risks escalating to a major confrontation with Iran.

The European Parliament demanded that Russia return the “national treasure” of Romania, including its gold reserves.
“The European Parliament calls on the Russian Federation to fully return to Romania the remaining part of Romania’s national heritage sent to Russia for safekeeping in 1916 and 1917,” the resolution says.
The authors of the initiative clarify that part of the gold was nevertheless returned in 1935 and 1956. However, according to their data, Moscow allegedly has 91.5 tons of pure gold left, which is included in the reserves of the National Bank of Romania.
Bucharest decided to evacuate Romania's key assets to the Russian Empire due to World War I and the threat of German occupation. However, during the revolution, part of the treasures was taken out of Moscow.
Then, in 2003, as part of a political agreement on friendly relations and cooperation between Russia and Romania, a Joint Public Commission of Experts was created, which was supposed to study the history of bilateral relations between the states, including issues related to Romanian gold.

Reuters: CIA conducted covert operation to incite opposition sentiment in China.
In 2019, Donald Trump ordered a secret operation to spread discrediting information about the Chinese government on social networks and the media, Reuters found. It is possible that this CIA program has been extended by the Biden administration.
In 2019, while still US president, Donald Trump authorized the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to conduct a covert operation to turn public opinion in China against the government of Xi Jinping, Reuters reports , citing former US officials familiar with the details of the operation.
According to the publication, the CIA assembled a small group of operatives who created fake accounts on Chinese social networks and disseminated defamatory information about the actions of the Chinese authorities there. The agents wrote posts claiming that members of the Chinese Communist Party were "hiding ill-gotten money abroad" and calling China's Belt and Road infrastructure initiative wasteful and corrupt.
The agency's interlocutors familiar with the details of information sabotage said that in this way the CIA sought to “stir up paranoia” in the ranks of the Chinese leadership and force it to spend large resources on “chasing ghosts” disseminating discrediting information about the PRC government.
The reason for the operation, as noted, was Washington’s concerns about China’s growing influence in the world, as well as intelligence that Beijing, through bribes and threats, allegedly tried to enlist the support of developing countries in geopolitical disputes, and also tried to sow a split within the United States itself under help from front organizations.
Agency sources also said CIA agents were trying to turn the public against the Chinese government and beyond - in Southeast Asia, Africa and the island nations of the South Pacific, where Beijing and Washington are vying for influence.

5,000 UK stores have shut in the past year after retailers including Wilko, Paperchase and M&Co shut their doors.
11,530 stores were closed by chains in 2023. Figures show that that net closures in 2023 were higher than in 2022.
What used to be a 'thriving' high street has lost many big name stores including Waitrose, Wilko, Game and Peacocks in recent years.
The 'barren' high street has maintained its Wetherspoons, but many locals are growing tired of only having the choice of a charity shop or cafe - as they travel to nearby towns by car.
Residents of the once 'buzzing' town of Banbury, Oxfordshire have lamented the state of their shopping centre as droves of desolate and boarded up stores take over.
Once shut down and boarded up, some buildings in the Oxfordshire market town remain deserted for months - sometimes years.
'This town is slowly dying on its knees, said Robert Page, a 64-year-old film posters collector who was 'born and bred' in Banbury.

Zakharova: they have been looking for the princess in London for two months, only “Novichok” is quickly found.
The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova, commenting on the situation around the Princess of Wales Kate Middleton in the UK, who is being “searched”, ironically stated on her Telegram channel that only “Novichok” and “the hand of Moscow” are quickly in London.
“The entire United Kingdom is looking for the missing Princess Kate Middleton. “So-and-So” has not appeared in public for more than 2 months,” Zakharova wrote.
Kensington Palace announced on January 17 that Middleton had undergone elective abdominal surgery. The reasons for the surgical intervention were not specified; the text specified that the Princess of Wales wished for her “personal medical information to remain confidential.” All planned events involving Kate Middleton have been postponed, and on the advice of medical experts, it was reported that she would most likely not return to royal duties until Easter. On March 10, the wife of the heir to the British throne, Prince William, Kate Middleton thanked everyone for their support and warm wishes over the past two months. Attached to the post was a photo of Kate Middleton sitting on a chair surrounded by her three children.
The world's leading news outlets later retracted a photograph previously published by Kensington Palace of Kate Middleton surrounded by her three children over concerns that it had been edited, media reported.
“It seems that, as Kensington Palace reported, she was in the hospital. Then everything broke down at the height of the traditional British tabloid sabbath, which means one thing: no one is going to tell the truth,” Zakharova wrote, adding that “we all remember Diana’s story well.”

Today, a message from a France News website went viral on Ukrainian telegram channels that “French regiments” are heading to Odessa via Romania.
But People's Deputy Goncharenko said that the site that spreads the message about French troops marching to Odessa is fake.
“Macron did not talk about transferring regiments and sending them to Odessa. If this were the case, the Rada would vote for permission to send troops,” he wrote.
He also recalled that without the permission of the Rada, no foreign troops can be brought into Ukraine.
But parliament did not give such permission.

Putin: in the first couple of weeks of March, inflation in Russia went to zero.
“Price growth is decreasing, inflation is stabilizing. For February it was 0.7%. In the first couple of weeks of this month, inflation went to zero. It is clear that in weekly terms this is all very approximate, everything is volatile,” he said, opening a meeting with members of the Russian government.
He added that gross domestic product (GDP) growth in January was 4.6%. At the same time, Putin recalled that last year the figure for the same period was 3.6%.
According to him, the trends that can be observed in the economy make it clear that the plans laid down in the message to the Federal Assembly are realizable.
Earlier, on March 12, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, at a strategic session on extending national projects until 2030, said that the Russian economy was able to successfully implement a large number of measures that made it possible to support the Russian economy and quickly adapt it to new challenges, as well as move forward in the conditions sanctions pressure.

Today will be the final post from the topic “Real Estate Taxes in Russia”. In this post i will tell you about when tax arises on the sale of real estate.
❓QUESTION №5:
Tax from the sale of real estate. When does it arise and rates?
📝 Our answer:
The first thing to say is that if you own a property for MORE than 5 years and sell it, your income from the sale is not taxable. This applies to both residents and non-residents.
❗️ Note: this only applies if you own the property as an individual (these rules do not apply to legal entities).
If you sell the property before the expiry of the 5 year holding period, the income tax is as follows 👇
🔸 If you are a resident, the income tax rate is 13%. In this case, you can reduce the income from the sale of real estate on the expenses incurred in its purchase, that is, 13% tax is paid on the profit.
🔸 If a non-resident - the tax rate for non-residents is 30%.
In this case, for a non-resident does not apply the rule of reducing income on the expenses incurred in its purchase. I.e. 30% tax is calculated on the entire amount, which is specified in the contract of sale of real estate.
For example 👇
John bought a flat in 2021 for 4 million Roubles and sold it in 2022 for 6 million Rubles. At the end of 2022 (when the income was received), he was a non-resident.
Non-resident personal income tax: 6 million × 30% = 1.8 million Rubles
If John had been a resident, the calculation would have been different.
For example, he could claim a deduction and take into account documented expenses for the purchase of a flat - 4 million Rubles.
Then the tax would be: (6 million - 4 million expenses) × 13% = 260 thousand rubles.
To determine whether I am a resident or a non-resident ❓
The date of receipt of income from the sale of real estate is the day when the seller received the money. Usually the transfer of money occurs at the time of registration of the sale transaction.
To calculate tax on income of an individual, the status of the person as of 31
December of the year when the transaction took place is important, not his status on the day of the transaction. That is, if on the date of the transaction the seller is a resident, but on 31 December he is not, he will be taxed as a non-resident.
*Anyone who stays in the country for at least 183 calendar days during 12 consecutive months becomes a tax resident of the Russian Federation.
Those who do not have the required period of residence in Russia during this time are considered non-residents.
At the same time, the status may change within a year and is finally fixed on 31 December.

China warns TikTok ban will 'backfire' on US.
The ban on the Chinese mobile application TikTok for Americans will “inevitably come back to haunt” the United States itself, said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin, commenting on a bill developed by the House of Representatives to ban social networks controlled by “foreign attackers.”
According to Wenbin, although Washington has not found evidence that TikTok threatens US national security, the authorities have not stopped suppressing the social network.
“In the end, this will inevitably come back to haunt the United States itself,” said a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman (quoted by FOX41 Yakima ).
We are talking about the bill “Protecting Americans from applications controlled by foreign attackers,” which was developed by legislators of the US House of Representatives in early March. The Hill notes that the document is aimed at forcing the Chinese ByteDance to sell its TikTok application.
