๐จ๐บ๐ธ๐บ๐ฆ Trump is demanding Ukraine's RARE EARTH METALS in exchange for continued military aid
Pre-2014 Ukraine was a top global suppliers of mineral resources๐:
๐ธIt boasted of 20,000 mineral deposits, covering 116 types of minerals with a value of $12 trillion
๐ธ8.4M tons of titanium ore reserves, between 10-20% of the total global reserves
๐ธHolds 500,000 tons of discovered lithium reserves, used in the production of many batteries
๐ธIs also a top producer of gallium in the world to produce semiconductors and LED
There's one major problem with Trump's demand much of former Ukraine's mineral wealth is now controlled by Russia (biggest concentration of rare earth metals is in Donetsk and Lugansk)
Why are Ukraineโs mineral resources strategically important?
๐จ๐ณChina accounts for TWO THIRDS of the worldโs rare earth metals production
๐If the US wants any hope of competing with China, it needs guarantee access to the other one third of global production

In December, Turkish-backed jihadists overthrew Assad and seized power
Now the new Syrian regime is offering to host Turkish airbases and give Turkish companies lucrative reconstruction contracts
But all is not well for Erdogan:๐
๐ธTurkey never fully trusted Jolani and HTS. After all, Jolani was โeducatedโ at an American prison camp in Iraq
๐ธKurdish problem: If Turkey does nothing, it will have a de-facto Kurdish state on its borders. If it goes on the offensive, it could find itself on a collision course with the US (too risky)
๐ธCollapse of Assad has enabled Israel to make a big landgrab in Syria and there's not much Turkey can do to stop Netanyahu
๐ธPossible rift with Qatar: Both Turkey and Qatar helped HTS seize power, but Qatar has more money to spend on buying influence. Donโt be surprised if Qatar tries to make a powerplay in Syria at Turkeyโs expense

๐จ๐บ๐ธ๐ Will Trump's Tariffs BLOW UP American economy?
We've previously written about why Trump is likely to prevail in his trade war with Canada and Mexico. For the sake of being balanced, let's examine why his tariff addiction could BACKFIRE SPECTACULARLY.
โ ๏ธ๐ฐIn 2023, the tariffs generated a return of $80 billion, a mere drop in the bucket compared to the nearly $2.2 trillion in personal income tax revenue. Here are the points to keep in mind:
๐ธ Only a universal tariff of 70% would generate enough revenue to replace individual income tax, and that's just in theory, because imports would obviously crumble in that scenario.
๐ธHigher tariffs to China can destroy the revenue to US companies
๐ธTrump's tariffs could cost the U.S. middle-class family between $1,200 and $2,600 each year.

Forget all the noise about DOGE slashing government waste and fraud.
Trumpโs proposed tax plan would add $5 to $11 trillion to the national debt by 2035. That would push debt to 132% of GDP on the low end and 149% on the high end!
As we explained in the previous post, Trumpโs tariffs will not be sufficient to fill US treasury coffers.

๐ฉ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฃGerman economy on the verge of โKAPUTโ
The implosion of the German economy is accelerating, even more than we predicted.
To make matters worse, Trump has signed new tariffs at 25% for steel and aluminum applied to all countries. Remember that Germany is the 6th largest exporter to the US with $84B in exports.
Scholz and Von der Leyen have vowed that the EU will respond forcefully to the US tariffs. However, Germany's economy is already reeling from Russia sanctions and explosion of Nord Stream pipelines. A US-EU trade war would likely be a knockout blow to the Germany economy, which send shockwaves to the French, Spanish, and other European economies

๐ธBaltic States' local electricity production: 18.4 TWh.
๐ธConsumption: 27 TWh.
In other words, a massive deficit.
