Why send #BorisBecker to jail at huge public cost. Make him do community service instead for duration of sentence. He's no threat to public safety

UKRAINIAN NEGOTIATOR MYKHAILO PODOLYAK SAYS KYIV IS READY TO HOLD 'SPECIAL ROUND OF NEGOTIATIONS' IN MARIUPOL, WITHOUT CONDITIONS
Holding remarkably well under the circumstances, to the point it makes me somewhat suspicious.
SNG went from about £1.80 to 0.11p in an instant, this is absolutely nothing.
I choose to hold in the belief that the SP will return to something like normality, it takes as long as it takes.
"Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban said that he had talked with Vladimir Putin at length earlier today and asked him to apply a ceasefire in Ukraine.
He said that Putin's response was "positive" but that Putin said this would have conditions"
Yep - Drop the sanctions.

Are they at 29% now? If so you would have to say its highly likely they wanted as many shares as possible without triggering the previously said obligation, for obvious reasons.
It was a topic of conversation on the SNG board that once a 30% stake had been achieved you are obliged to offer the maximum price paid within 12 months, currently nearly 28p on the 23rd April 21. Can't say I ever checked myself but it was generally accepted to be accurate.

"Presidents of Ukraine and Russia Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin "with a high degree of probability" will meet in Turkey, head of the Ukrainian delegation at the talks David Arakhamia said during a telethon on Ukrainian television on Saturday.
According to him, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan "called both us and Vladimir Putin yesterday, and he seemed to confirm for his part that they were ready to organize a meeting in the near future."
"Neither the date nor the place is known, but we believe that the place with a high degree of probability will be Istanbul or Ankara," Arakhamia said."
"The Russian side during a video conference on Friday confirmed that the draft agreements that were discussed at a meeting in Istanbul this week are ready for discussion by the presidents of Ukraine and Russia, head of the Ukrainian delegation at the talks David Arakhamia said during a telethon on Ukrainian television on Saturday.
"Russia has given an official answer on all positions, which is that they accept this position [Ukrainian] with the exception of the issue of Crimea. Kuleba [Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine] said that there is no official confirmation in writing, but verbally, as of yesterday, via videoconference, they heard that the Russian side does not object to such positions and we are moving further from the point of view of legal more," he said.
According to him, "they [the Russian side] also confirmed our thesis that draft documents have been developed enough to conduct direct consultations between the two leaders of the countries."
"Our task is to prepare the final stage not of the document itself, but of those issues that we touched upon, and to prepare the future meeting of the presidents," he said."

From poly board.
I'm another from the SNG graveyard having foolishly (in hindsight) been "all in".
I've learnt an expensive lesson and have now diversified significantly, although I still hold some SNG I will no longer be as reckless.
Made decent returns so far on this and POG and quite happy to hold long term if necessary.
It's a glitch with Google, seen it many times before. Click on the trades icon and you will see the price has incorrectly reverted to the late reporting of a trade.
It does say Russia describes the talks as constructive (thanks for the link wontongue), which sounds positive of course.
Z & P will only meet once they are very close.
Any links to that Davidol22?
