It’s unlikely we can get rid of him, so if he can get out an save face we should work on it (though clearly not giving up an inch of Ukrainian ground)0 -
You have to hope this is the outcome. It’s not much of a gravy train to ride if it leads to Armageddon. You’d assume at least one or two will step up to the plate when the time comes.TheBigBean said:

There's an article on either the BBC or one of the natiknals about his inner circle. It didn't leave much room for optimism.morstar said:

People seem to be forgetting he's had 9+ years to ensure his inner circle is completely loyal and/or too scared to cross him.1

Having your business heavily invested in Russian oil and having your CEO on a board with Putin is a governance risk (the G in ESG) so you would hope that given every investor in Europe waxes on about doing ESG analysis they should have priced that risk in (they won’t have)kingstonian said:rick_chasey said:

Would you be able to fact check your Twitter posts? The story is from yesterday, has been denied (meaning little) and isn't reported on any more reliable media.rick_chasey said:

Anyway we’re in a siege situation now. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻Let’s hope they’re ok in there.
Am a bit worried they’re gonna go “raize it to the ground” approach with a more “compliant” general.

Ah, I see - thought your post was referring to something I’d previously said, but it is more general.
Yes, would have thought BP will have considered at some point in time the risk of relations with Russia going sour. If not, that’d be pretty amateurish.

(Again, this was your ESG risk right?)Immediately offloading the stake to a potentially inappropriate buyer was not an option.
The company has decided to "divest", meaning it will sever its financial ties with Rosneft, stop taking a dividend and step back from its two seats on the board.
Company officials say it's too soon to say exactly how this stake will be disposed of.- Genesis Croix de Fer

Outside of Ukraine it’s all eyes on the ruble to see if there is a run on it. Indications so far suggest there will be.
Lotta pain for a lot of Russians.
