@ClausWachmann Since we started continuously monitoring these alumina exports on March 14, there’s been 19 Estonian owned vessels, 12 Latvian and 1 Turkish
🚨Yesterday, 23 June, Estonian owned cargo ship KELLY from Hansa Shipping departed Aughinish with approx 8799 tons of Alumina for Putin’s war machine.
This is enough to smelt 4400 tons of aluminium.
This is the 32nd such shipment since NAFO started monitoring on 14 March
It was such a joy getting to spend time with Joe and Jill, George and Laura, and Bill and Hillary last week. Barack and I will always be grateful for your constant friendship and support of our family over the years.
(And George, thanks for the mints!)

I know these are difficult times, when it may seem like so much of what we fought for has been undone or hangs in the balance. But I know we will prevail—because you’ve shown me what’s possible.
I see it in the @ObamaFoundation Leaders, Scholars, and changemakers who are pointing a way forward. In the new generation of faith, civic, and elected leaders rising up in cities and state capitals. And in people and communities who are doing their best to change our country for the better.

To George and Laura, Bill and Hillary — we're grateful for your friendship, counsel, and devotion to this country. And to Joe and Jill, thank you for being on this journey with us.

The more you raise, the easier it is to raise again. Because the bigger you get, the better your odds are of getting even bigger.
Once you're a unicorn, the odds of becoming a decacorn are 8%. And once you're a decacorn, the probability of going to $100B is 13%. But the chances of 10x'ing from $100B are 31%.
Every round you close increases the probability of closing the next one. The money concentrates in the hands of those who already have it.
One counterintuitive implication of this is to raise faster and reach each milestone as quickly as possible. The compounding works in your favor the sooner you start it.
A Russian soldier kept Sofia, Ukrainian, for over a year as a sex prisoner — holding her in a flat with bars on the balcony, boarded-up windows, locked doors, and padlocks.
