George Soros Says "Brexit' Would Cause World Markets to Collapse: TheStreet

Published on 21 Jun 2016
Billionaire investor George Soros is issuing a stark warning if Britain would vote this week to leave the European Union. He says Britain leaving the E.U. would lead to a currency and stock market disaster. He predicts a "Brexit' would cause the sterling to drop quickly, even more so than when the pound crashed in 1992-a move that made him a billionaire. Currency traders are placing bets against "Brexit' ahead of Thursday's vote. Homebuilder Lennar


Published on 21 Jun 2016
A Brexit won't be worse than the crisis in the early 1990s, when the pound collapsed following Britain's exit of the European Exchange Rate Mechanism, as billionaire George Soros suggested in an op-ed Monday. 'It won't be pretty for the pound - whether it's going to compare with the crisis in the 90s which Soros made his fame, perhaps not,' said Simon Smith, chief economist at FxPro, based in London. Soros made over $1 billion in the early 90s, betting against the pound. The referendum is held on Thursday.

#Ukraine - 'After Marseille Europe can understand Russian hybrid methods, used in Ukraine': UKRAINE TODAY

Published on 19 Jun 2016
Latest Global Piece Index ranks Ukraine among the top 10 most dangerous countries in the world. Kyiv is placed at the 156th position out of 163, in the cheerless company of Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.

Experts name the conflict in the Donbas region, caused by Russia, as the main factor for the deteriorated security situation in the country. The uncontrolled territories now also serve as the main source of illegal arms trafficking.

And all kind of people tried to use these weapons to destabilise other regions of Ukraine. At least a dozen blasts rocked the major cities in the country in 2015. They were classified as terrorist attacks by the local law enforcers.

"When Ukrainian police tried to find the persons responsible for the explosions in Odessa or Kharkiv, the majority of these guys were connected to the Russian secret services. Latest exchange of prisoners, when Moscow admitted two Ukrainian citizens, accused of separatism, confirms it", Ukrainian military expert Mykhailo Samus says in an interview with UT.
