Europa är alltför passivt och saknar förmågan att ta initiativet till fred utan USA:s hjälp

 

”Varför kan president Trump stoppa tankfartyg från skuggflottan och beslagta olja, men inte Europa? Rysk olja transporteras längs Europas kuster, den oljan finansierar kriget mot Ukraina, den oljan bidrar till att destabilisera Europa”, säger han.  

Han hånar också beslutet att skicka 40 soldater till Grönland och frågar sig vad det skickar för budskap till Ryssland och Kina?

”Antingen förklarar man att europeiska baser kommer att skydda regionen från Ryssland och Kina och etablerar dessa baser. Eller så riskerar man att inte tas på allvar, eftersom 40 inte kommer att skydda någonting”, säger han.

Volodymyr Zelenskyj säger att hans möte tidigare under dagen med USA:s president Donald Trump var ”positivt” och säger att ett första trepartsmöte nu kommer att hållas med USA, Ryssland och Ukraina. 

”Det kommer äga rum i morgon eller dagen efter i morgon i Förenade arabemiraten”

Zelenskiy Blasts Europe for Inaction in Countering Putin

Zelenskiy said documents to end the war were nearly ready following months of talks on a 20-point peace plan, security guarantees and postwar reconstruction.

But he also hit out at responses from western allies to his calls to provide Ukraine with more weapons to defend its air space and conduct deep strikes into Russian territory.

“Here, in Europe, we’re advised not to mention Tomahawks to the Americans – not to spoil the mood,” Zelenskiy said. “We’re told not to bring up Taurus missiles.”

– Vi behöver mer Europa, sa utrikesministern och lät som EU-älskande moderater av den gamla skolan.

Det lät som att hon menade att det behövs en annan, större union.

– Kan Kanada bli EU-medlem? sa finansministern att hennes tidigare kanadensiska motsvarighet hade frågat henne.

Pfizer in 2019 sold $20 billion of drugs in the U.S. Its federal tax bill? Zero; Ireland

Trump has already singled out pharma companies and countries like Ireland that reap the benefits of tax-avoidance moves.  Despite its small size, Ireland ran an $87 billion trade surplus with the U.S. last year—larger than any country except China, Mexico and Vietnam. https://www.wsj.com/health/pharma/how-trumps-tariffs-could-upend-pharmas-overseas-tax-strategy-5b8ca758 Is Ireland vulnerable again as the world’s vast shadow banking system starts to crack? Shadow banking is the dog that has not barked during the latest global spasm of financial stress. This is very fortunate, especially for small countries such as Ireland that have bet the farm on this industry. https://englundmacro.blogspot.com/2023/04/is-ireland-vulnerable-again-as-worlds.html Cayman Islands https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cayman_Islands What the heck is happening in the Cayman Islands?

Niall Ferguson: The AI Boom Is a House of Cards, Tyler Cowen: Not so fast

AI is driving markets and GDP growth—but the underlying financing resembles the 19th-century railroad industry, which had its own share of crashes. Financial history can help us here. If you’re unsure if there’s an AI bubble, refer to the historian Charles Kindleberger’s five-stage model: Displacement: Some change in economic circumstances creates new and profitable opportunities for certain companies. Euphoria or overtrading: A feedback process sets in whereby rising expected profits lead to rapid growth in share prices. Mania or bubble: The prospect of easy capital gains attracts first-time investors and swindlers eager to defraud them. Distress: The insiders discern that expected profits cannot possibly justify the now-exorbitant price of the shares and begin to take profits by selling. Revulsion or discredit: As share prices fall, the outsiders stampede for the exits, causing the bubble to burst altogether. We are currently at stage 3.
