🇺🇸🇨🇳 US prepares to stop China's invasion of Taiwan, USPACOM chief says

- The US will deploy thousands of unmanned ships in the Taiwan Strait to stop a possible Chinese invasion, US Indo-Pacific Command head Samuel Paparo said.

- "I want to turn the Taiwan Strait into an unmanned hell using a number of classified capabilities," the general declares.

- Such a response would follow if the Chinese navy crosses the 100-mile zone on approach to the island, Paparo claims.

- The U.S. must prepare for a response by 2027, as Beijing has expressed intentions to attack Taiwan by that date.

- The Indo-Pacific Command (USPACOM) is a unified command within the U.S. Army responsible for planning operations and directing troops in military operations in the region.

💻 Chipmaker Giant Intel Halts Construction Work at New $25BN Factory in Israel

Intel has informed a large infrastructure company in Israel in the last few days to halt work on the factory in Kiryat Gat – citing ‘responsible capital management.’ (Channel 12)

Several senior officials at Intel Israel have also transferred their jobs to a factory that the firm is establishing in Ohio.

It isn't clear how long the project will remain on hold. Intel's comment regarding capital management suggests it may be stalling while figuring out how to pay for the factory as investors drop projects in Israel.

🩸 Death of the Petrodollar

The long-standing Petrodollar deal between the US and Saudi to sell oil only in dollars ended on June 9 - after being in place for 50 years.

The system marked the US dollar as the world's reserve currency, granting economic stability and access to rising asset prices – it also helped preserve dollar dominance over global trade.

Turbulent times and great geo-political changes lay ahead. Can the US dollar survive?

🇫🇷French Conservatives Seek “Deal” with National Rally

France’s mainstream conservative party is seeking an alliance with Marine Le Pen in an unprecedented embrace of the hard-Right.

Eric Ciotti, leader of the Republicans has now signalled his willingness to enter a govt with Le Pen - insisting their parties “say the same things” and that any opposition between them was “imagined.”

National Rally is looking for allies in case it fails to reach an absolute majority, which would mean it could name the prime minister and make Macron a lame duck – despite the president insisting he will not resign.
