Just over a year ago, Russia triggered what has arguably become the first global energy crisis. But it’s not our first convulsion. My @opinion colleague @davidfickling & I got stuck into the history, with some graphics magic from ⁦@hecharts⁩ 👇 bloomberg.com/graphics/2023-…

Great video by @helloimserene and @ClaraDFMarques of @business, along with help from @supbrow on showcasing the ship-to-ship transfers of Iranian oil in the Riau archipelago amid wholesale AIS manipulation. #OOTT Article here: bloomberg.com/graphics/2024-… youtube.com/watch?v=9Npgzs…

This @business doc is the final piece of our reporting on the largest dark fleet muster point — how oil flows from Iran to China, why it is hard to curb sanctioned trade & the risks it poses. Thanks to @supbrow for helping us! Here is the investigation: bloomberg.com/graphics/2024-…

Keen to test your language skills? Great! My wonderful niece’s final-year Latin project involves getting as many folks as possible to compete this short (and anonymous) questionnaire — please have a go and make her day. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

@ConnellyAL @TheEconomist Amazing, Aaron! Glad to have you in the fold!

I am happy to share that I will be joining @TheEconomist in August as senior Asia correspondent and Asia diplomatic editor, covering the big stories in Asian geopolitics, security, and diplomacy. I will continue to be based in Singapore, reporting from across the region.

“In the end, Singapore is too particular, too sui generis in both its assets and liabilities, to constitute a template. It has but one universal lesson: the importance of an open mind.” ft.com/content/6f59d5… via @ft

“The factors electors need to weigh in the Indian elections are not as straightforward as giving up democracy for prosperity. Indeed, the frightening possibility is that India gives up both,” writes former RBI governor Rajan in the FT today. ft.com/content/c4631d…

Foi um prazer fazer parte! 25 de abril, sempre!

And last of all… Tanto Mar - Chico Buarque This is a post-revolution & a Brazilian song, written by Buarque to celebrate and to wish for a little of the same across the water, where Brazil was still living under a military dictatorship. youtu.be/hdvheuHhF2U?si…

Grandola, Vila Morena - Zeca Afonso After the initial cue, this song, played on Radio Renasenca just after midnight on April 25, was the signal to press on. Traditional male choral singing from the Alentejo region, and an anthem of protest still today. youtu.be/IVKf00VGjGM?si…

The 25 of April 1974 changed the course of my life, and the lives of millions of others in Portugal and in the then colonies. It’s also, in a very 70s way, probably the only revolution to start with a Eurovision song. So here are some of the songs that defined it… 1/6

Quatro décadas de ditadura, cinco décadas de liberdade. Feliz 25 de Abril!

Great first-hand reporting by @parija_pratik and @ClaraDFMarques from southern UP. “If you ask me about what I have gained in the last 10 years, I can only say a debt of nearly 500,000 rupees.” But: “We voted for the BJP in 2014 and 2019. I will vote for the BJP again.”

My report with @parija_pratik from two of India's most significant agrarian states 👇 If Modi wins a third term in office, as polls suggest he will, it will be in spite of the state of the rural and farming economy — not because of it. bloomberg.com/news/features/… via @bbgequality

@rprose все в порядке
