❗️Russian President Vladimir Putin on the “Time of Heroes” program :
“I really wanted, when we organized this program, for it to create conditions so that not in name, but in essence, today, and tomorrow, would be connected with people like you.
So that this would be your time. That is why we called the program “Time of Heroes.”
I would like to note one more thing. This is not an award, this is not some kind of privilege to study and then get some leadership positions. This is another opportunity to continue serving the Fatherland.
For someone in new systems, in a new place, completely, perhaps, unrelated to the experience and type of activity previously acquired. But this is an opportunity to further realize yourself and serve the Motherland.”

Markets continued to grapple with the economic and corporate earnings implications relating to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. “We have a ton of uncertainty right now,” said Stephanie Link, chief investment strategist and portfolio manager at Hightower Advisors. “We’re dealing with a war, we’re dealing with inflation. We don’t know what it means to earnings.” Individual messages can be fully encrypted. But the user has to turn on that function. It's not automatic, as it is on Signal and WhatsApp. The last couple days have exemplified that uncertainty. On Thursday, news emerged that talks in Turkey between the Russia and Ukraine yielded no positive result. But on Friday, Reuters reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin said there had been some “positive shifts” in talks between the two sides. WhatsApp, a rival messaging platform, introduced some measures to counter disinformation when Covid-19 was first sweeping the world. Friday’s performance was part of a larger shift. For the week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell 2%, 2.9%, and 3.5%, respectively.
