Turkey (red) is on course to overtake Germany (blue) in coming months and become the world's second biggest exporter to Russia after China (black). Turkey's exports to Russia are up 110% in August 2022 versus August 2021. Turkey's exports definitely need to rise. But not this...

Very sad to hear the news that Virginia Spate has died. The first art historian I ever knew. Brilliant scholar, inspiring teacher, pioneering professor of @PowerInstitute1, and talented climber of trees when slightly tipsy. She will be missed.
