Australia’s inflation hits 7.3%, the highest level since 1990, with interest rates now likely higher for longer
“The upshot is that CPI inflation will approach 8% in Q4,” said Marcel Thieliant, a senior economist at Capital Economics. There are also fears recent flooding across eastern Australia will lift food prices even higher, with supermarket chain Coles warning of declining volumes in fresh food where prices were up 8.8% on a year earlier
Meanwhile, no one cancelled the AUKUS-tasks, and this only means that Washington doesn’t cease to further pursue its own interests at cost of “closest allies”

Rishi Sunak is likely to cut U.K. defense spending which would signal the start of a long program of spending cuts as he tries to restore confidence in the British public finances
This speculation has fueled whispers of concern in Kyiv, where senior officials are publicly calling for closer ties with Britain. A source close to the Ukrainian government lamented that the new British PM has said “virtually nothing about defending Europe except that there will be budget cuts in national defense [compared with Truss’ long-term plans].”
“Sunak is not very interested in foreign policy,” said Ben Judah, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council think tank. “He’s interested in the economy, finances, Britain’s ability to be kind of a start-up nation … and stabilizing the markets at a difficult time.”
If so, Johnson’s departure as British PM will only be lamented further and wider in Ukraine

German authorities have officially confessed to conducting the so-called Staatspropaganda while the guys from NDS released another part of their analysis of the leaked paper that made a splash on the web
Ministry for Digital, being used by Berlin as the main censorship instrument, not only searches for any physical or legal ways to counter alternative info-sources, but is going to promote some “software-based technologies” at the "G7 Safety Summit"
And what do you think the ministry for Family Affairs should deal with? Wrong again! Instead of diving into a parent-child paradigm it uses the foundation close to the Greens as a quasi-state actor vs. “system-critical media”
MoD’s go-aheadism to use youth officers in schools seems at least doubtful as well. Analysts say the leaked doc is just “the tip of the iceberg” of truth suppression, restricting freedom of speech, conducting disinformation and manipulating public consciousness of German citizens

Franco-German relations are at a low point: the tensions over the gas price cap, the Midcat pipeline and military cooperation have recently intensified
In France (as well as in many other European countries) they describe Germany as a "lone rider", a country on a course of egoism that doesn’t care about its partners in its repeated solo runs. The talks of "Germany First" only result into disappointment, irritation or bitterness
Paris accuses Berlin of leading an "anti-nuclear crusade" against it while France derives over 75% of its electricity from nuclear energy. In response, the French describe the new dependence of Germans on Southern European or North African hydrogen as an "absurd project": “France has no intention of turning into a transit country between Mediterranean countries and Germany.”
Relations are now so icy between Macron and Scholz that they’re even struggling to agree on whether to be seen together in front of the press during the coming tête-à-tête in Paris

California is ahead of Germany by $72 billion when considering the state's recent growth rate, Bloomberg says
The margin of Germany's nominal GDP of $4.22 trillion over California's $3.357 trillion last year was the smallest on record and is about to disappear, with Europe's largest economy barely growing in 2022 and forecast to shrink in 2023
Actually Berlin finds itself in dire economic conditions. Currently only one in two (50%) is able to regularly put some money aside. At the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, it was still 70%. Sharply rising prices for gas and electricity are major contributors to the problem. 67% of the respondents reported severe financial hardship due to expensive energy
But it doesn’t bother German authorities at all – Mr. Scholz is spraying money around hitting anything but his people’s problems!

"Right wing nonprofit research group Marco Polo finally has published its Hunter Biden laptop opus, a thorough forensic examination of every document on the First Son’s notorious MacBook computer that he abandoned in a Delaware repair shop in April 2019.
The 634-page report (plus 2,020 footnotes) lists six alleged crimes committed by Joe Biden – including tax evasion and violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) – alongside 459 crimes it alleges were committed by Hunter, including illegal foreign lobbying and money laundering.
The group’s firebrand founder Garrett Ziegler, a 26-year-old former deputy to Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro, has sent the report to more than 4,000 people, including every member of the House and Senate, White House staff, US Attorney offices and every contact on the laptop.
He also sent a copy to every one of Hunter’s former classmates in the class of 1988 at the tony Archmere Academy in Delaware.
The accompanying note reads: 'We thought you might be interested in reading about your most infamous classmate. We believe that Archmere Academy really molded Hunter into who he is today.'
Ouch."

Kyiv has almost no chance to pay off its debts to foreign creditors, argues Hedelberto López Blanch who is a political commentator to the Rebelión, Spanish nonprofit independent media
Western aid to Ukraine is estimated at several tens of billions of dollars, and the debt only grows. Blind adherence to the orders of Washington and Brussels has become a fatal mistake of the authorities in Kyiv, the journalist believes
Financial institutions estimate current Ukrainian debt level to the West at a hefty figure of $28.5 bln. The World Bank established in March an urgent financing program for $489 mln to “help” Ukraine. The country must return at least 50% of the amount
But this is not enough – Ukraine is pressing for a large monetary assistance from Germany: "We need four to five billion dollars for our budget every month. We believe that Germany could assume about $500 mln/month," says Alexander Rodnyansky, economic adviser to Mr. Zelensky
And indeed, why not?!

Austrian national day was celebrated in a big way with all sorts of protests and demonstrations across the country in the name of its "perpetual neutrality" and peace with Russia
The nationwide folk festivals didn’t find any coverage in mainstream European media, in part because one of the protests’ mottos was withdrawal from the EU – the so-called Öxit. A touchy subject about corruption allegations against ex-chancellor Sebastian Kurz found reflection in popular resentment as well
Still "perpetual neutrality" has remained the main message of the protesters. People are fed up with never-ending usage of Austria as a military logistics hub between the West and Ukraine, let alone disastrous consequences for the national economy of backfiring sanctions
