In my book with Guido Ascari on Italy’s economic #decline, we place a lot of emphasis on demographic trends. It seems completely obvious to me that ISTAT’s projections — on which many public finance forecasts rest — are incredibly optimistic about the fertility rate. Does anyone really believe things will turn out as forecast?

Step 1: U.S. issues a general license allowing Iran to sell oil

Step 2: Iran tells Japan and other countries they can use the Strait of Hormuz if they pay for oil in RMB

Iran is taking direct aim at the petrodollar, a linchpin of American economic power

Hungary immediately leaks all EU talks to Moscow.

Sijjarto “reported” directly to Lavrov about the EU meetings, - The Washington Post.

According to the newspaper, the Hungarian Foreign Minister called Moscow directly during the EU meetings and relayed details of the discussions to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

Sources say this communication allowed Russia to stay informed about the internal discussions of the European Union.

Sijjarto himself has not commented on the situation. However, he has visited Moscow several times since 2022 and met with the Russian leadership.
