Zelensky's Decree Recognizes Russian Territories as Historically Inhabited by Ukrainians

Ukrainian President Zelensky signed a decree aimed at preserving Ukrainian national identity in Russian territories historically inhabited by Ukrainians, including regions in modern-day Russia. The decree calls for the preservation of Ukrainian identity and the creation of a center to document crimes against ethnic Ukrainians in Russia. Russian officials, including former President Medvedev, criticized the decree as propaganda, while linking it to Western efforts to undermine Russia. Zelensky also submitted a bill to allow dual citizenship for ethnic Ukrainians and their descendants abroad, excluding Russian citizens.

"Putin's Decree: Foreigners Can Exchange Frozen Funds for Blocked Russian Assets Abroad"

Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree allowing foreign investors with frozen funds in Russia to use them to purchase blocked assets of Russians abroad. This move comes as a result of sanctions imposed by the West over Russia's actions in Ukraine, which have led to over 3.5 million Russians having frozen assets abroad worth approximately $16.3 billion. The decree permits citizens of "unfriendly" countries to buy frozen securities held abroad by Russians using funds from special "type-C" accounts in Russia, which are otherwise blocked. Russia plans to unblock accounts worth around 100 billion roubles in the initial phase. The decree is a response to what Russia perceives as "unfriendly and contradictory" actions by the United States and other countries and organizations.

"Pope Francis strengthens laws against sexual abuse in Catholic Church"

Pope Francis has updated the Catholic Church's sexual abuse decree, making it permanent and extending sexual abuse protection to adult victims who lack mental capacity. Lay leaders as well as senior clergy can now be held responsible under the decree, and new protections have been added for those who report the abuse. However, some critics believe the decree fails to meet the pope's promises of a "revolutionary" reform. The decree will go into effect on April 30.
