Zimbabwe Central Bank to Settle $1.2 Billion of Legacy Debt'''

 

The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe approved the payment of $1.2 billion in legacy debt, but rejected claims for a further $861 million as the nation battles the twin effects of currency depreciation and a crippling shortage of foreign currency. Settlement of the verified foreign debt will be amortized over an extended period, “with forex-denominated savings bonds” being issued to some of the creditors, the central bank said in its monetary policy statement Monday. The southern African nation owes foreign entities, including airlines, and fuel and grain suppliers, about $2.6 billion in legacy debt since it dropped the 1:1 peg of its local dollar to the U.S. unit a year ago, but hasn’t been able to meet payment obligations due to the severe shortage of foreign currency. Another 350 transactions valued at $457 million will be finalized by Feb. 29, the bank said. Senior government officials have previously said they would ask creditors to take a cut on some of the debt, to save on the much-needed foreign currency.

 

Foreign debt of $361 million owed by the bank was not included in the amounts, Governor John Mangudya said.

EU industry chief tells Facebook to adapt to EU, not other way round

 

EU industry commissioner Thierry Breton said on Monday it was for Facebook to adapt to Europe’s standards, not the other way round, as he criticized the U.S. social media giant’s proposed internet rules as insufficient. The blunt comments came after a short meeting with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and two days before Breton is due to present the first of a raft of rules to rein in U.S. tech giants and state-aided Chinese companies.

 

“It’s not for us to adapt to this company, it’s for this company to adapt to us,” Breton, a former CEO at French telecoms provider Orange and French technology company Atos, told reporters after the meeting.

 

Zuckerberg had earlier told reporters he had a good, wide-ranging conversation with Breton.

 

Breton also said he would decide by the end of the year whether to adopt tough rules as part of the digital services act to regulate online platforms and set out their responsibilities.

 

He dismissed a discussion paper issued by Facebook on Monday that rejects what it calls intrusive regulations and suggests looser rules whereby companies would periodicially report content and publish enforcement data.

 

“It’s not enough,” Breton said, adding that Facebook had omitted any mention of its market dominance and also failed to spell out its responsibilities. EU justice chief Vera Jourova, who also met Zuckerberg, was equally adamant on Facebook’s role in the fight against online hate speech, disinformation and election manipulation.

 

“Facebook cannot push away all the responsibility. Facebook and Mr Zuckerberg have to answer themselves a question ‘who do they want to be’ as a company and what values they want to promote,” she said in a statement.

 

“It will not be up to governments or regulators to ensure that Facebook wants to be a force of good or bad.”

 

Breton will announce proposals on Wednesday aimed at exploiting the EU’s trove of industrial data and challenging the dominance of Facebook, Google and Amazon. It will announce rules to govern the use of artificial intelligence too, which will also affect companies such as Facebook.

and the labor force stats are pure bs and have been for decades. Using rolling averages of 10 years to arrive at some data point is/was not a real barometer of what is really habbening. The methodology used was changed drastically under both Bush admins and Clinton. Not disagreeing with your overall statement as we do have very large issues. POTUS is using these numbers against them as it is the system they THEY created thus he is not getting ANY push back from them when he touts how "well" it is doing.
