What did we think was going to happen? Just two weeks ago, the United States threatened to withhold arms sales for Ukraine that were *already paid for* by European allies. After a year of policy like that, it's hard to make the case that the United States is reliable.

Last month Reuters analysts estimated Russian oil and gas revenues were likely to fall by around 35% in November. This has now been confirmed by official Russian government figures.

With one year left for the 🇪🇺 pandemic-era Recovery Fund, more than 40% remains to be absorbed (with the low-hanging fruit long gone). Focus on it has also delayed the absorption of the structural funds. Again shows the issue is not the lack of funds but absorption capacity.

It's not quite on the chart, but it remarkable that Europe went from highest debt to GDP ratio of all major economies in the 1990s to soon lowest now in the 2020s.

Major economies are running on leverage like never before: Japan’s government Debt-to-GDP ratio stands at ~215%, the highest among major economies. The US follows with a Debt-to-GDP ratio of ~125%, near its all-time high. European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) debt-to-GDP

Attention Brussels. Political risk temperature check. US #LNG went from providing 0% of European gas imports in 2015 to the largest import source in 2025, ahead of both Russia & Norway. By 2030, it's likely to pass Europe's Russian dependency record set in 2018. @ColumbiaUEnergy

This is really a bad look. Belgium holding out is annoying enough. But EU governments telling Belgium it'll be alright while not willing to give the guarantees is just undermining their credibility. If it'll be alright, there should be no problem to give a guarantee.

The EU remains weak. European governments refuse to grant Belgium unlimited and indefinite guarantees for risks associated with the use of frozen Russian assets, — Politico Belgium continues to demand that the EU fully cover all financial risks, including potential lawsuits

🇫🇷 The French budget deficit narrowed further through October, down €21bn from a year ago. Revenues up, spending down. Still no budget but at least the underlying fiscal situation is not deteriorating.
