For months, a sign on the door has been announcing the future of what is said to be the last restaurant license on Passeig de Gràcia: Tbilisi Boulevard. A Georgian restaurant opening this weekend that promises to become a gastronomic and cultural embassy of the country.

The negotiation of the fiscal ordinances is one of the few municipal matters in which, year after year, the groups that make up the plenary strive to renew through political agreement. The matter is not minor: the taxes paid by citizens and businesses. The government of Jaume Collboni aims to freeze the tax burden on the general population. And to increase the one related to the tourism sector. It will be so or it will not be, since it is a demand from ERC and Barcelona en Comú for the overall proposal to move forward. The deputy mayor of Economy, Jordi Valls, proposed this Friday a double increase, of the IBI on large hotels and leisure venues and on short-stay cruise passengers.

A few hours before the first legislative elections in wartime began in Russia and amid rising tensions with the European countries allied with Ukraine, the Kremlin chief, Vladimir Putin, ordered by decree to take control of the businesses of two major Western companies in the country, the French Auchan and the Swiss multinational Nestlé.
