Sam Bresnick, Research Fellow and Andrew W. Marshall Fellow at Georgetown's Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET), joins Lawfare's Justin Sherman to discuss his recently published report, “Big Tech in Taiwan: Beyond Semiconductors.” They discuss a previous report Sam coauthored with Georgetown CSET colleagues, “Which Ties Will Bind?,” looking at U.S. Big Tech companies' exposure to China; Sam's recent report on the 17 examined companies' Taiwan entanglements; and how greenfield foreign direct investments (FDI), research and development (R&D) centers, data centers, supply chains, and more expose the studied U.S. companies to Taiwan. They also discuss how companies think about the geopolitical and security threat space, perspectives on “derisking” versus “decoupling” from Taiwan or China, and how U.S. policymakers could better track, identify, and potentially mitigate the risks.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with talks are underway in Stockholm between the US and China over a trade/tariff deal. Prospects are not high.And the recent EU-US deal has the makings of unravelling. Both France and Germany are unhappy about the outcome, made worse by the US claiming verbally pharmaceuticals have been excluded when the EU negotiators said they were not excluded from the 15% written deal.The big casualty in all of these deals, including the Japanese one, is trust in the US. Smartarse public commenting by the US president - even some of his advisers - means the deals struck are unlikely to be respected by the US or trusted by the others. The result isn't "a deal", it is a fluid mess.New Zealand's situation in all this will be a footnote, probably sometime on Saturday.In the US, the Dallas Fed's factory survey improved sharply in July, but this was all about higher production. New orders are still contracting, even if at a slower rate. Elevated input price pressures continued in July. Improved sentiment is driving the raised output even in the absence of a pickup in new orders.Financial market eyes are now turning to Thursday's (NZT) US Federal Reserve meeting and decisions. Despite the overt Whitehouse pressure, financial market pricing shows virtually no-one is pricing in a rate cut.In Canada, wholesale sales came in better than expected, up +0.7% in June from May when a -0.2% retreat was anticipated. But despite that good recent gain, they will still be lower than in June 2024.Across the Pacific, from 2022 to 2024, Taiwanese consumer confidence rose. But since October 2024 it has been falling. However the July survey rose, the first break in the recent down-trend. It wasn't a big move from June, but they will take it.In China, they are taking something they don't want. Foreign direct investment recorded another net outflow in June, and a worse one than the highly unusual April net outflow. The reasonable start to 2025 is being undone faster now. In the six months to June they have had a net inflow of US$42.3 bln. In 2024 they had more than that in just the first three months and even that was much weaker than in 2023 (US$98 bln) or 2022 (US$112 bln). Fleeing investors isn't a good look for China.Indian industrial production expanded a rather weak +1.5% in June from a year ago, held back by surprisingly weak mining (coal) production.. In their factories however, the story is much better with manufacturing production us +3.9% from a year ago, a better rise than in May although less than the +4.5% expected.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.42%, up +3 bps from yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$3,309/oz, down -US$27 from yesterday.American oil prices have risen +US$1.50 at just on US$66.50/bbl with the international Brent price is now at just under US$70/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 59.7 USc and down -½c from yesterday and back to where it was a week ago. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 91.6 AUc. Against the euro we are up +30 bps at 51.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 67.6, down -10 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$117,664 and down -1.3% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has remained low at just on +/-0.9%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

A pochissimi mesi dalle elezioni regionali in Veneto ancora non c'è un candidato ufficiale per la coalizione di governo,  tra accordi in bilico e braccia di ferro alla vigilia delle vacanze. Quel che è peggio è che non ci sono programmi elettorali, ma questo sembra lasciare indifferenti tutti, perfino gli elettori, costretti ad accontentarsi di banali slogan sulla sicurezza e sulla sanità. L'incertezza è totale sotto la bandiera del leone, l'unica cosa sicura è che di autonomia non se ne parlerà mai più.

China will remain a vital innovation hub and manufacturing base for foreign corporations despite global economic uncertainty, said government officials and business leaders.政府官员和商界领袖表示，尽管全球经济形势充满不确定性，但中国仍将作为外国企业的关键创新中心和制造基地而继续发挥重要作用。They noted that foreign firms are maintaining deep engagement with the Chinese market, capitalizing on their technological expertise alongside China's well-developed industrial and supply chains — a synergy that enhances operational efficiency, fosters innovation and strengthens supply chain resilience.他们指出，外国企业正持续深入参与中国市场，充分利用自身的技术专长以及中国完善的工业和供应链体系——这种协同效应能够提高运营效率、促进创新并增强供应链的韧性。Foreign-invested companies in China saw their export and import value grow by 2.4 percent year-on-year to 6.32 trillion yuan ($881.2 billion) in the first half, marking growth for the fifth consecutive quarter, statistics from the General Administration of Customs showed.据海关总署的数据，今年上半年，在华外资企业的出口和进口总额同比增长2.4%，达到6.32万亿元人民币（约合8812亿美元），这是连续第五个季度实现增长。The number of foreign-invested businesses in the country with actual import and export activities amounted to 75,000 in the first six months, the highest level for the same period since 2021, said the administration.该部门表示，上半年在该国开展实际进出口业务的外资企业数量达到75,000家，这是自2021年以来同期的最高水平。China's evolving industrial ecosystem — combining cost, quality and speed with advanced infrastructure — is transforming into a collaborative innovation hub where multinationals co-develop and expand alongside local partners, said Mohamed Kande, global chairman of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd, a London-based global accounting company.普华永道国际有限公司（一家总部位于伦敦的全球性会计师事务所）的全球主席穆罕默德·坎德表示，中国不断发展的工业生态系统——将成本、质量和速度与先进的基础设施相结合——正在转变为一个协同创新的中心，跨国公司与当地合作伙伴共同开发并扩大业务规模。Reflecting on this shift, Lyu Daliang, director of the GAC's department of statistics and analysis, said that among the major manufacturing categories involved in foreign company exports, industries such as specialized equipment, electrical machinery and electronic devices all posted robust growth between January and June.对于这一变化，广汽集团统计分析部门负责人吕大良表示，在外资企业出口所涉及的主要制造业类别中，诸如专用设备、电气机械和电子设备等行业在1月至6月期间均实现了强劲增长。One such company — Global Electric Appliance (Nantong) Co Ltd, a manufacturer of household appliances in Nantong, Jiangsu province and a subsidiary of a Singapore-based industrial group — reported a 31.9 percent year-on-year increase in exports, reaching 343 million yuan in the first half, said Nanjing Customs.其中一家这样的企业——位于江苏省南通市的家用电器制造商“环球电器（南通）有限公司”，该公司隶属于一家总部位于新加坡的工业集团，其出口额同比增长了31.9%，上半年达到3.43亿元，此数据由南京海关公布。Chen Jinxin, head of the company's foreign trade unit, said the company has shipped its products, including vacuum and steam cleaners, to over 90 overseas markets, backed by China's innovative solutions and a highly integrated supply chain that enables rapid product development and efficient global distribution.该公司外贸部门负责人陈金鑫表示，公司已将包括真空吸尘器和蒸汽清洁器在内的产品销往全球90多个市场。这得益于中国的创新解决方案以及高度整合的供应链，该供应链能够实现产品快速开发和高效的全球配送。Apart from investing 3 billion yuan in its Hangzhou plant in Zhejiang province over the past decade, Italian chocolate and confectionery maker Ferrero Group said that the factory now supplies 53 percent of its products to the Chinese market, with the remaining 47 percent exported to more than 20 countries and regions across the Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and North America.在过去十年里，意大利巧克力及糖果制造商费列罗集团在浙江省的杭州工厂投入了30亿元资金。该集团表示，目前该工厂生产的53%的产品供应给中国市场，其余47%的产品则出口到亚太地区、中东和北美地区的20多个国家和地区。Yang Lianjun, general manager of Ferrero's Hangzhou plant, said the Chinese market offers significant opportunities, and the company may introduce additional premium product categories in the future, such as ice cream.费罗尔杭州工厂的总经理杨练军表示，中国市场蕴含着巨大的机遇，公司未来可能会推出更多高端产品类别，比如冰淇淋。To bolster its local research and development capabilities, Ferrero established a food innovation center within its Hangzhou facility last year. The center focuses on developing chocolate, confectionery and bakery products tailored to regional preferences and shortening time-to-market cycles.为了增强其本地的研发能力，费列罗公司去年在其杭州工厂内设立了食品创新中心。该中心致力于开发符合当地消费者口味的巧克力、糖果和烘焙产品，并缩短产品上市周期。The Ministry of Commerce said foreign direct investment in China's manufacturing sector reached 109.06 billion yuan in the first half, while high-tech industries attracted 127.87 billion yuan. FDI inflows from Switzerland, Japan, the United Kingdom and Germany rose by 68.6 percent, 59.1 percent, 37.6 percent and 6.3 percent, respectively.商务部表示，上半年中国制造业领域的外国直接投资达到1090.6亿元，而高科技产业吸引了1278.7亿元的投资。来自瑞士、日本、英国和德国的外资流入分别增长了68.6%、59.1%、37.6%和6.3%。Amid a turbulent and uncertain global trade landscape, the stability of China's policy environment and the long-term orientation of its planning have grown increasingly valuable, said Li Xingqian, vice-chairman of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.中国国际贸易促进委员会副会长李兴乾表示，在全球贸易环境动荡且充满不确定性的背景下，中国政策环境的稳定性以及其规划的长期导向性变得愈发重要。Neutrik Technology (Ningbo) Co Ltd, a Ningbo, Zhejiang province-based manufacturer of electronic connectors and a subsidiary of the European company Neutrik AG, reported a 19 percent year-on-year rise in first-half sales to 68.45 million yuan, covering both domestic sales and exports, said Ningbo Customs.位于浙江省宁波市的纽崔克科技（宁波）有限公司是一家电子连接器制造商，隶属于欧洲的纽崔克公司。该公司称，其上半年销售额同比增长19%，达到6845万元人民币，其中包括国内销售额和出口额。此数据由宁波海关提供。Dong Lanju, the company's president, said that China's well-integrated industrial ecosystem and pro-business environment will continue to empower foreign manufacturers to expand production, boost operational efficiency and better capture opportunities in global markets.该公司总裁董兰菊表示，中国完善的工业生态系统以及积极的商业环境将继续助力外国制造商扩大生产规模、提高运营效率，并更好地把握全球市场的机遇。peace talksn.和平谈判/piːs tɔːks/Ukraine crisisn.乌克兰危机/juːˈkreɪnˈkraɪsɪs/

South Korea and China have a complex relationship characterized by economic interdependence, strategic competition, and regional security concerns. Navigating this delicate balance has been a defining challenge for every South Korean president. Newly elected President Lee Jae Myung has assumed power at a time of increasing US-China strategic competition as well as uncertain global supply chains and growing threat from North Korea. Could this new administration mark a shift in Seoul's approach to Beijing? Or will President Lee maintain strategies similar to that of President Yoon?To discuss ROK-China relations, and President Lee's approach to this intricate issue, we are joined on the podcast today by Dr. Ramon Pacheco-Pardo. He is a professor of international relations at King's College London and the KF-VUB Korea Chair at the Center for Security, Diplomacy and Strategy in the Brussels School of Governance. He is also an adjunct fellow with the Korea Chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, and the author of several books on the domestic affairs and foreign policy of South and North Korea.  Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:44] “[P]ragmatic diplomacy centered on national interests”[05:06] State of Play for Sino-South Korean Relations[09:56] Balancing Between the United States and China[14:47] China Taking Advantage of US-ROK Frictions [19:03] Economic Interdependence as a Leverage[25:39] Xi Jinping Attending APEC South Korea 2025[31:11] American Pressure on Allies to Protect Taiwan

Years of efforts aimed at promoting the country's opening-up and continuously expanding market access for foreign enterprises have gradually paid off. Foreign-funded enterprises now contribute one-third of China's foreign trade, one-fourth of its value-added industrial output, and one-seventh of its tax revenues, and have created more than 30 million jobs over the past five years. It is little wonder therefore that the government should highly value foreign direct investment and always try its best to improve the business environment for foreign capital, so as to make the country a safe and promising destination for foreign investors.多年来，为促进国家对外开放和不断扩大外资企业市场准入所做的努力逐渐取得成效。外资企业目前占中国对外贸易的三分之一，工业增加值的四分之一，税收的七分之一，在过去五年中创造了3000多万个就业机会。因此，毫不奇怪，政府应该高度重视外国直接投资，并始终尽最大努力改善外国资本的商业环境，使该国成为外国投资者的安全和有前景的目的地。The country's 14th Five-Year Plan from 2021 to 2025 set the target of attracting a total of $700 billion in foreign investment, with remarkable progress to be made in both the quantity and quality of utilized foreign investment. Despite the challenges posed by the rise of protectionism and unilateralism in recent years, the utilized foreign investment in China reached $708.73 billion by the end of June, suggesting the country has already achieved its five-year foreign investment target, ahead of schedule.2021年至2025年，中国第十四个五年计划设定了吸引7000亿美元外资的目标，利用外资的数量和质量都将取得显著进展。尽管近年来保护主义和单边主义抬头带来了挑战，但截至6月底，中国利用外资已达7087.3亿美元，表明中国已提前实现其五年外资目标。Statistics from the Ministry of Commerce released on the weekend also indicate that in the first half of this year the number of newly established foreign-invested companies increased by 11.7 percent year-on-year to 30,014, as the country continues to attract foreign capital into high-tech industries such as artificial intelligence, e-commerce, pharmaceuticals and high-end manufacturing.商务部周末发布的统计数据还显示，今年上半年，随着国家继续吸引外资进入人工智能、电子商务、制药和高端制造业等高科技产业，新成立的外商投资企业数量同比增长11.7%，达到30014家。The country's high-tech sector has become a major magnet for foreign capital thanks to its immense potential, with the percentage of utilized foreign investment in China's high-tech sector rising from 28.3 percent of the total in 2019 to 37.4 percent in 2023. In the first half of this year, foreign investment in e-commerce services alone recorded a nearly 130 percent year-on-year surge.由于其巨大的潜力，中国的高科技行业已成为吸引外资的主要力量，中国高科技行业利用外资的比例从2019年的28.3%上升到2023年的37.4%。今年上半年，仅电子商务服务领域的外国投资就同比激增近130%。The development of a highly advanced innovation ecosystem in China has prompted a lot of multinationals to expand their investment in the sector in light of the country's forward-looking strategy. Take BMW for example. The German auto giant plans to establish its first China-based information technology research and development center in Nanjing, which will represent a huge expansion of the company's digital capabilities. The center is set to be BMW's largest IT R&D hub in Asia, and it is designed to strengthen the automaker's global production, sales and after-sales systems through digital solutions rooted in China's rapidly evolving tech landscape. Explaining the decision, Franz Decker, president and CEO of BMW Brilliance Automotive, said during the signing ceremony with the local government on Friday that China "demonstrates remarkable vitality in building a thriving ecosystem for digital innovation".中国高度发达的创新生态系统的发展促使许多跨国公司根据国家的前瞻性战略扩大了对该行业的投资。以宝马为例。这家德国汽车巨头计划在南京建立其第一个中国信息技术研发中心，这将代表该公司数字能力的巨大扩张。该中心将成为宝马在亚洲最大的IT研发中心，旨在通过植根于中国快速发展的技术格局的数字解决方案，加强宝马的全球生产、销售和售后系统。华晨宝马汽车公司总裁兼首席执行官Franz Decker在周五与当地政府的签字仪式上解释了这一决定，他表示，中国“在建立繁荣的数字创新生态系统方面表现出了非凡的活力”。The third China International Supply Chain Expo, which concluded on Sunday in Beijing, has earned a reputation for being a showcase for technological innovation and China's new quality productive forces. The expo highlighted how the country has embraced an innovation-driven development strategy in pursuit of high-quality development, which is expected to bring immense business opportunities for foreign companies. "Here in China ... the technology adoption is so fast," said Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO, during an interview on the sidelines of the expo, citing how China's innovative applications are setting global trends. "The supply chain of China is a miracle. It is the largest and most complex in the world ... built on deep technology, AI and software."第三届中国国际供应链博览会于周日在北京闭幕，以展示技术创新和中国新型优质生产力而闻名。世博会强调了中国如何采取创新驱动的发展战略，追求高质量的发展，这有望为外国公司带来巨大的商机。英伟达首席执行官黄仁勋在世博会间隙接受采访时表示：“在中国……技术采用如此之快。”他引用了中国创新应用如何引领全球趋势。“中国的供应链是一个奇迹。它是世界上最大、最复杂的……建立在深厚的技术、人工智能和软件之上。”There have been some pointing to the actual use of FDI in China dropping 15.2 percent in the January-June period from a year earlier. Yet it should be noted that was amid a global decline in foreign investment, and the total volume of utilized FDI in China is 423.23 billion yuan, which remains significant. The decline can be attributed to the high comparison base last year. Any attempt to hype that foreign investment is leaving the country is out of ill intent.有人指出，1月至6月期间，中国实际使用的外国直接投资比去年同期下降了15.2%。然而，应该指出的是，在全球外国投资下降的情况下，中国利用的外国直接投资总额为4232.3亿元，仍然很可观。这一下降可归因于去年的高比较基数。任何炒作外国投资正在离开该国的企图都是出于恶意。In the past five years, the rate of return on FDI in China, at nearly 9 percent, still ranks among the highest around the world. It is the consensus among foreign investors that China remains an attractive destination for investment, not only because of its huge growth prospects, but also due to consistent government support aimed at enabling foreign-funded enterprises to achieve even greater success, as exemplified in an action plan that China released early this year to stabilize foreign investment.在过去的五年里，中国的外国直接投资回报率接近9%，仍然是世界上最高的。外国投资者普遍认为，中国仍然是一个有吸引力的投资目的地，这不仅是因为其巨大的增长前景，还因为政府一贯支持外资企业取得更大的成功，正如中国今年年初发布的一项稳定外国投资的行动计划所证明的那样。No matter how the external environment may evolve, China remains firmly committed to high-standard opening-up and always welcomes foreign companies to keep investing in China and explore the Chinese market to enjoy the country's development dividends and progress together.无论外部环境如何变化，中国都坚定地致力于高标准的对外开放，始终欢迎外国公司继续在中国投资，开拓中国市场，共同享受国家的发展红利和进步。multinationaln.跨国公司/ˌmʌltɪˈnæʃənəl/remarkable vitalityn.非凡的生命力/rɪˈmɑːkəbl vaɪˈtælɪti/

Non è sempre una scelta quella delle donne di lavorare di meno. E' il cosiddetto part-time involontario, si svolge un lavoro a tempo parziale perché non se ne è trovato uno a tempo pieno, e colpisce soprattutto le donne e gli stranieri. Colpisce l'entità: quattro volte maggiore rispetto agli uomini. Ne parliamo con Maria Cecilia Guerra, responsabile Lavoro della segreteria nazionale del Partito democratico e Walter Rizzetto, deputato di FdI, presidente XI Commissione Lavoro.

On June 13th, Israel launched attacks on several military and nuclear facilities in Iran, marking the beginning of a 12-day war between the two countries. The United States followed with targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear sites to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power and posing a threat to regional and global stability. China's involvement in the conflict was limited to condemning the Israeli and US use of military force and calling for de-escalation. Beijing offered only rhetorical support for Tehran. To discuss what the Israel-Iran war reveals about China's relationship with Iran, its evolving strategy in the Middle East, and the broader implications for US-China competition, we are joined by Yun Sun on the podcast today. Yun is a Senior Fellow, co-Director of the East Asia Program and Director of the China Program at the Stimson Center. Her recent piece in The Wire China entitled “How China Sees Iran's Future” offers provides a nuanced take on Beijing's calculus during and after the war. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:34] China's Diplomatic Strategy Toward the Middle East[05:00] A Limited Chinese Response and China's Regional Role[08:19] Chinese Perceptions of Iran's External Strategic Blunders[15:00] Trickling Chinese Investment into Iran[20:10] Chinese Concerns About a Nuclearized Iran[25:09] Implications of the Israel-Iran War for China's Energy Security[32:04] Trump's Response Shaping Chinese Views of the United States 

Ireland's energy future is approaching a critical juncture. EirGrid forecasts a 45% increase in electricity demand between 2023 and 2034, driven by the rapid rise of data centres, electric vehicles, and economic growth. But as demand soars, the national grid is being pushed to its limits, struggling with renewable integration challenges, ageing infrastructure, and climate-related disruptions. The impact of Storm Éowyn, which left 715,000 homes, farms and businesses without power, exposed just how vulnerable Ireland's energy system has become. While grid upgrades are underway, such as the North-South Interconnector, progress has been slow. So, what can businesses do now to protect themselves from power disruptions and grid delays? Enter microgrids: Self-contained, local energy networks that can operate independently from the traditional grid. For businesses and communities alike, they offer greater energy security, lower costs, and a more resilient path. Microgrids, More Than Just Backup Power Nearly half (46%) of UK and Irish businesses identify energy security and resilience as a significant risk, underscoring the urgent need for more reliable and adaptable energy solutions like microgrids. In Ireland, where grid congestion and renewable integration challenges are growing, microgrids can help bypass infrastructure bottlenecks, accelerate the rollout of wind and solar, and provide critical backup to businesses during outages. When paired with storage technologies, they can stabilise supply, reduce reliance on fossil fuels, and insulate users from volatile global energy markets by enabling local generation and storage of clean power. With Ireland ranking third-highest in electricity prices across Europe, the case for investing in off-grid, prosumer energy solutions has never been stronger. For businesses - especially those in rural or grid-constrained areas - these systems offer a viable path to energy independence, cost stability, and long-term sustainability. Take Finland's Citycon Lippulaiva development as an example, where a local energy system is supported by advanced digital monitoring and intelligent energy management tools. This mixed-use urban hub - featuring a shopping centre, metro station, bus terminal, and residential units - has successfully optimised resilience, sustainability, and energy efficiency. The microgrid is projected to pay back its €3 million investment within five years, thanks to a 14% annual reduction in energy costs. From Strain to Strength: Rethinking Energy for High-Demand Users Microgrids are not just a cost-saving solution; they're becoming an essential tool in Ireland's energy transition and economic growth. EirGrid has warned that growing grid congestion and delays in new connections could significantly hinder progress toward a net-zero energy system. Data centres, in particular, are under increasing scrutiny due to their soaring energy demand and pressure on the grid. Yet they also represent a major driver in Ireland's economy. Instead of relying solely on the national grid, data centres can deploy self-sufficient microgrids that operate independently or in tandem with the main system. These decentralised systems can not only power their own operations, but also store surplus energy and sell it back to the local community, effectively transforming from energy consumers to energy providers. This prosumer model enables data centres to access clean, reliable, and cost-effective energy while enhancing their scalability. That's vital for a sector that plays a key role in Ireland's foreign direct investment (FDI) strategy and contributes significantly to the national economy. Solving Grid Bottlenecks, One Microgrid at a Time Unlocking the full potential of microgrids in Ireland will require a more agile regulatory and planning environment. Streamlining approval processes and incentivising demand-side solutions are critical steps toward building a more resilient energy system. Earlier this year,...

The IDA has known for a few months that change was in the air. Donald Trump's tariff war and America First policies look set to change the global investment landscape. But so far, Ireland has escaped any major damage. In fact inward investment into the country was up 37% in the first half of this year. But were these deals long in the pipeline and will that river of FDI dry up in the coming years as companies sit on their hands? That was just one of the issues Joe raised with Michael Lohan the Chief Executive of the IDA.

Please note: I wrote this on April 28th, and then was traveling abroad for the last few weeks, so I had no opportunity to post this until now, sorry about that: but nothing I have said here has been rendered wrong by Operation Sindoor and the near-war that happened after I wrote this. Deccan Herald ran a slightly edited version as my regular column on May 4th at https://www.deccanherald.com/opinion/on-pahalgam-imperial-fortresses-and-kashmir-s-settler-colonialism-3523731 With good reason, India has focused on Pakistan as the culprit behind the Pahalgam atrocity. It is telling that their army chief declared to Pakistanis that Hindus and Muslims are two different nations and that Kashmir is Pakistan's jugular vein. He implied that Pakistan is the ideal Islamic state as in Venkat Dhulipala's “Creating a New Medina: State Power, Islam, and the Quest for Pakistan in Late Colonial North India”. This could have been a signal to the terrorists to create maximum offence while massacring Hindus.Given Kargil, IC 814, Bombay 26/11, Uri, Pulwama, and now Pahalgam, India is justified in cutting ties to Pakistan, including trade, sports, the cringe Attari circus, even diplomatic relations. India did once mass its forces at the Line of Control in Operation Parakram, but honoring the Shimla Agreement, did not cross. Now that Pakistan has canceled the Agreement, there is no legal reason for restraint, especially since the nuclear bogey is no longer credible.But there is more. The Pakistani defense minister said that his country had been doing the dirty work for the US and the West for decades. Maybe he meant the Afghan war against the Soviets and post-9/11 somersaults by Pakistan. But that's only scratching the surface.Britain explicitly created Pakistan as a Great Game weapon against Russia/Soviet Union, and when that collapsed, against india. Britain has been using Pakistan as an “imperial fortress”, as I pointed out in “Britain's outsized, malign role in global chaos”. Whitehall tilts strongly towards Pakistani interests, even in the case of widespread gang-rapes of minor white girls, not to mention their antics against Hindus in Leicester.Official mouthpiece BBC never speaks of Pakistani terrorists, only ‘gunmen'; it's always “Indian-controlled Kashmir”; and an extraordinary headline recently said: “Pakistan suspends visas for Indians after deadly Kashmir attack on tourists”. These are not accidents.Britain and the US Deep State (eg. Madeleine Albright and other Atlanticists) worry about the waning influence of Europe (or “northwest Asia” as I wrote in “The End of the European Century”). Naturally, incumbent powers go to war with a rising power (Thucydides Trap: Graham Allison's thesis). This has been the rationale for containing Russia, now it is being turned to Asia. China is rather inscrutable and impregnable, so they attack India, which is easier prey.Then there is the Otherization of Hindus and thus Indians. Even as staunch an atheist as Richard Dawkins (“The Blind Watchmaker”) admits Judeo-Christian cultural biases. Only Christopher Hitchens among modern atheists was self-reflective enough to avoid this. Abrahamics would like to make us disappear, and so engendered great famines in India (“Late Victorian Holocausts”). Now this is reprising through climatism (at an Alexandra Ocasio Cortez rally there was a woman earnestly saying “we have to eat babies” to reduce emissions). Covid was possibly another attempt at depopulating ‘deplorables', that is black and brown people.Let's not forget China, also unhappy about India's possible economic rise; so it dutifully regurgitated “all-weather” support for Pakistan. They have used Pakistan to keep India down, as a force multiplier for violence and trouble. Then China can market itself as a safe investment destination compared to a dangerous India where FDI may be risky. I suspect this is part of their siren-song to big firms (eg. Apple) now.Finally, and most importantly, there is the settler-colonial complex of Muslim Kashmiris. They trot out South Africa, other European conquests and Gaza as examples of colonialists violating natives' rights and imply the same in Kashmir. The bitter irony of course is that it is the Muslims who are the colonialists wiping out Kashmir's indigenous Hindus who have a 5000 year history there. They have turned the logic on its head: see the Harvard Law Review paper “From Domicile to Dominion, India's Settler Colonial Agenda in Kashmir”.There have been seven tragic exoduses of Hindus from Kashmir: 1. 1389–1413 (Sultan Sikandar Shah), 2. 1505–1514 (Fateh Shah II), 3. 16th–17th Century (Timurid Period), 4. 1752–1819 (Durrani Rule), 5. 1931 (Anti-Dogra Riots), 6. 1986 (Anantnag Riots), 7. 1989–1990 (Militancy-Driven Exodus). Most Hindu Kashmiris now rot in refugee camps.I wrote long ago in “India, the Kashmiri colony” about Muslim Kashmiris extracting tribute from the Indian/Hindu taxpayer. Worse, there is evidence emerging that local overground workers (eg. mule handlers) arranged the logistics for the Pahalgam massacre. Acts of terror need local support, possibly including from local politicians (a former CM referred to terrorists as “the boys with guns from the mountains”).Yes, it's good to punish Pakistan (eg. Indus Water Treaty), but terror will persist until Muslim Kashmiris realize their future lies with rising, multi-religious India, not jihadi failed-state Pakistan; and the Deep State desists from further mischief.798 words, Apr 28, 2025 This is a public episode.

Hanaa and Lucien catch up and read some feedback on recent episodes to kick off Episode 52, in a rare moment in which both are recording the episode from their homes in the UK and US, respectively. Then, Lucien leads a DEEPDIVE into the Vision 2030 report for 2024, released this week. Over the past year, several Vision 2030 targets have been reached ahead of schedule. Others have been exceeded entirely. Progress includes achievements in tourism, employment, and PIF's gains, but the report also addresses areas needing improvement like FDI. Lucien makes the point that, data and findings aside, the report itself is valuable - it's a genuine effort to prioritize accountability and transparency by Saudi authorities to ensure that progress continues forward.    The hosts conclude as always with a round up of the latest news on Saudi Arabia, including a rave review of the 1001 Festival by MDLBEAST, Saudi Arabia and Qatar agreed to Pay Off Syria's debt to the World Bank, a fresh US-Saudi push to cooperate on developing a nuclear program in the kingdom, and (another) large US private equity plans to set up shop in Saudi Arabia this year.

Venerdì e sabato si tiene la Trentaseiesima edizione de "Lo scenario dell economia e della finanza" di The European House - Ambrosetti. Tra gli incontri più interessanti ci sarà venerdì "Gli impatti della Trumponomics sulle filiere industriali europee e italiane . Gli Stati Uniti rappresentano il 1° partner commerciale dell Unione Europea, con un surplus manifatturiero per l UE che sfiora i 200 miliardi di Euro (di cui il 19,6% detenuto dall Italia). Tuttavia, l UE registra un disavanzo verso gli Stati Uniti in termini di energia (-69,9 miliardi di Euro, di cui 7,6% detenuto dall Italia) e di servizi (-108,6 miliardi di Euro di cui 2,1% detenuto dall Italia) Teha evidenzia come gli impatti potenziali, derivanti dall introduzione di dazi, siano in media contenuti e gestibili per il sistema Paese, ricompresi tra 1,8 e 8 miliardi di Euro di riduzione dell export. Con la consapevolezza che alcune singole aziende di singoli settori potranno essere anche pesantemente impattate, come il settore dei macchinari, dei veicoli e della moda. Per rispondere alla politica commerciale del Presidente Trump, l Unione Europea potrebbe seguire le seguenti raccomandazioni: Consolidare la coesione tra gli Stati membri, rafforzare i legami verso altri, e nuovi, mercati e partner commerciali e attivare un tavolo di Lavoro condiviso tra Istituzioni europee e multinazionali americane.L elemento dirimente è: quanto la domanda di prodotti italiani ed europei è elastica rispetto al prezzo? Quanto i prodotti Made in Europe sono sostituibili (e in quanto tempo) da beni prodotti all interno degli Stati Uniti o in paesi non soggetti a dazi? In questo scenario, l Italia è il 21° Paese al mondo per insostituibilità commerciale delle esportazioni. Ne parliamo con Valerio De Molli, Managing Partner e CEO, The European House Ambrosetti e Teha GroupConfindustria taglia Pil 2025, +0,6%. Se guerra dazi +0,2%"La crescita in Italia riprende slancio solo nel 2026", avverte il Centro studi di Confindustria che, all'appuntamento con le previsioni di primavera, ha rivisto al ribasso dal +0,9 al +0,6% la stima per il Pil 2025 e vede in crescita dell'1% il Pil 2026. Incide un clima di incertezza "al massimo storico" legato anche alla guerra dei dazi che "pesano come un conflitto commerciale". Può andar peggio: la stima ipotizza che "l'impennata di incertezza duri per la prima metà del 2025" e "non include l'effetto di ulteriori dazi e contro dazi"; per gli economisti di via dell'Astronomia "lo scenario peggiore di un'eventuale escalation protezionistica" comporterà, invece, un ulteriore rallentamento del Pil con uno scostamento "del -0,4% nel 2025 e del -0,6% nel 2026", riducendo quindi la crescita attesa al +0,2% nel 2025 ed al +0,4% nel 2026. "Energia, green deal e dazi: gli ostacoli all'economia italiana e europea" al centro dell'analisi del centro centro studi di Confindustria. Il contesto è quello di "uno scenario internazionale sempre più frammentato" con una Europa che "sta progressivamente perdendo competitività". Sull'economia italiana "si contrappongono forze di segno opposto". Non mancano fattori che agiranno in positivo, come il taglio dei tassi, la risalita del reddito disponibile reale totale delle famiglie grazie al progressivo recupero delle retribuzioni pro-capite, il buon contributo dei redditi non da lavoro, l'aumento dell'occupazione totale, il calo dell'inflazione, "sebbene gli ultimi due fenomeni si attenueranno nel 2025 e 2026". Si aggiunge il calo atteso della propensione al risparmio che con l'aumento del reddito può dare un buon contributo alla dinamica dei consumi. E c'è l'implementazione del Pnrr: "Tra il 2025 e il 2026 le risorse programmate ammontano a circa 130 miliardi. Anche se non verranno spese tutte (l'ipotesi è che ne venga spesa la metà, 65 miliardi), daranno un importante contributo al Pil, in particolare agli investimenti in costruzioni, frenati dal venire meno degli incentivi all'edilizia residenziale". Il commento è di Alessandro Fontana, direttore del Centro studi di Confindustria.Pnrr, Fitto gela Giorgetti ma apre alla possibilità di spostare i progetti alla CoesioneLa doccia fredda per le speranze di proroga del Pnrr interne al governo è arrivata proprio dal vice presidente esecutivo della Commissione Ue di Fdi. A inizio settimana Raffaele Fitto in audizione alle commissioni congiunte del Parlamento Europeo ha ricordato che: "Gli Stati membri hanno solo 18 mesi per raggiungere i circa 5mila target milestone, è importante accelerare. La Commissione è pronta a sostenere tutti gli Stati membri, ma dobbiamo ricordare che il margine di manovra si sta assottigliando. Tutti i target e i milestones devono essere raggiunti entro agosto 2026", ha aggiunto Fitto. Dopo il bastone è poi arrivata la carota: la Commissione europea nella revisione di medio termine della Politica di Coesione ha proposto che Stati Ue e regioni dovrebbero individuare "entro giugno 2025" i progetti del Pnrr che "rischiano di non essere completati entro la scadenza di agosto 2026" e che potrebbero essere presi in considerazione per il finanziamento attraverso la politica di Coesione. Nonostante il governo continui a considerare il Pnrr un successo, però, secondo il Sole 24 Ore sono almeno 20 le misure in affanno. Nel frattempo però come preannunciato da Ursula von der Leyen nel suo piano "ReArm Europe", poi ribattezzato "Readiness2030", la Commissione europea ha presentato la proposta che consentirà agli Stati di usare i fondi di Coesione tradizionalmente destinati alle regioni più in difficoltà per finanziare capitoli di spesa che rispondono alle nuove priorità, a partire dalla Difesa.
