I didn’t write this book because I mastered leadership.
I wrote it because I didn’t.

It began as notes from difficult days and reflections from leaders I admire, and grew into something I wanted to share.

@jeuasommenulle Well it can be worse. In Italy, the health minister mistakenly nominated a Nobel Prize winner for physics, the head of of anti-doping commission. However, the ministry did not walk back, so that the NP winner, after learning about it in press, had to turn down the job himself.

I was in Vilnius’ national library to interview Governor Šimkus last week. A Russian victory would harm the euro’s status as much as, or even more than any fallout from Russian cash seizure. My interview 👇

[POLITICOEurope @POLITICOEurope]

Europe shouldn’t be squeamish about seizing frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine keep fighting, according to Lithuanian central banker Gediminas Šimkus.

Easy does it — the ECB can keep cutting gradually in December, according to Croatian central bank chief Boris Vujčić.

[Carlo Giovanni Boffa @cgboffa6]

December will not be such a difficult decision, ECB’s Boris Vujcic tells me in this interview. “I saw the Governing Council being on the same page and I don't really believe that it will be much different in the coming meetings.”

My story on the latest inflation print

[POLITICOEurope @POLITICOEurope]

Eurozone inflation surprisingly accelerated in July, complicating the European Central Bank’s path to a second rate cut this year at its September meeting.

[JohannesBorgen @jeuasommenulle]

Barclays just introduced a US Immigration tracker which they say provide better insights than the many official sources. Bottom line is huge increase in "Humanitarian" migration + unlawful.

But the economic impact is also very interesting.

Let’s not forget:

In April ECB holds with inflation 2.4%, wage growth 4.5%, core 2.9% and service inflation 4%.

In June ECB cuts rates with HICP 2.6%, wage growth 4.7%, service inflation 4.1% and core 2.9%.

Data dependency?

@NicolasGoetzman At what minute of the video he says that? I think i missed it...

[POLITICOEurope @POLITICOEurope]

The Party of European Socialists declared it would not work with far-right forces in the next EU Parliament.

The declaration is aimed at their conservative rivals, the European People’s Party, which has opened the door to some right-wing parties.
