AfD is abusing its parliamentary powers to gather information about Germany's transport and digital infrastructures, energy and water supply.
"With its requests, one gets the impression that the #AfD is working through a list of tasks assigned by the Kremlin...AfD is particularly interested in IT and equipment used by the police, for example in the area of drone detection and defense,"

While the USTR tariff calculator cites the findings from Cavallo, Gopinath, Neiman & Tang (2021) it is not entirely clear how they use our findings. Based on our research, the elasticity of import prices with respect to tariffs is closer to 1. If that figure were used instead of 0.25, the implied reciprocal tariffs would come out about four times smaller.

He says n’importe quoi. The US almost blocked Marshall aid because the Europeans kept bickering and refusing to agree on anything. The US needed a solid block against the communist threat and therefore wanted European unity more than the Europeans themselves.

Actually, it emerged from the EEC which the US wanted formed as a condition of Marshall Plan aid

In my latest piece for @alphaville.ft.com I introduce a new MAGA (Measure of American Goods Advantage) index, to help countries assess just how much Trump wants to tariff them.

A great report from @Open2Progress + @OutBritain on LGBTQ+ business in the UK

I'm delighted to support this work

“I think my experience of being, and feeling like, as a younger person, an outsider, not part of the pack, different, gave me a bit of grit in the oyster. Which means, I’m going to have to work harder than others in order to succeed.”

It is abundantly clear that if Russia is not defeated in Ukraine, @KremlinRussia_E will attack other countries. European governments must pledge to support Ukraine for the long haul, even if the US no longer will, argues @open2progress’ @plegrain. https://t.co/2cg1z3uJsG
