    Working meeting of Vitaly Savelyev with the head of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov

    For many years of fruitful cooperation and significant contribution to strengthening the socio-economic potential of the Republic of Tatarstan, Rustam Minnikhanov awarded Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev with the Order of Friendship (“Duslyk”).

    The Deputy Prime Minister noted the significant dynamics of the main economic indicators of the Republic of Tatarstan in 2024, as well as the systematic development of the transport complex of the subject.

    The total number of passengers served at all airports of the republic in 2024 amounted to more than 6 million people (Kazan International Airport – 5.3 million, other airports – 0.7 million).

    In 2024, 8.7 million passengers were transported by rail. The volume of transported cargo in 2024 remained generally at the 2023 level and amounted to 16.4 million tons.

    As part of the program for the development of unmanned cargo transport, 18 unmanned KamAZ trucks are being used on the M-11 and Central Ring Road highways.

    In turn, in the territory of Innopolis, as part of the development of unmanned transport technologies, an experimental legal regime is in effect for Yandex unmanned taxis.

    “First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to the President of Russia and the Federal Government for their systematic support of our initiatives. Tatarstan is a region with unique tourism and transport-logistics potential, and its development requires comprehensive infrastructure development. We pay special attention to air traffic: the modernization of the Kazan airport, including the construction of a new terminal, will not only increase capacity, but will also give impetus to the economy and tourism development. Water transport is no less important. The length of Tatarstan’s inland waterways exceeds 1,000 km. The main rivers – the Volga, Kama and Vyatka – have the status of water bodies of federal significance. We are implementing projects to update the fleet, including the construction of modern high-speed passenger hydrofoils “Meteor-2020″. This will create a modern, efficient transport system that meets the challenges of the time,” said Rustam Minnikhanov.

    “The Republic of Tatarstan has traditionally been one of the leaders in the development of transport infrastructure in the country. The regional leadership and personally Rustam Minnikhanov are consistently working in this direction. According to the results of 2024, growth is observed in all main areas: air transportation, rail transportation, and water transportation. Today, we visited the Kazan Aviation Plant named after Gorbunov, a strategic enterprise for the aviation industry, which produces and maintains the Tu-214 airliner. A number of airlines are interested in purchasing this aircraft. It is important to note that Tatarstan enterprises are participating in the implementation of transport megaprojects. For the construction of the Moscow-St. Petersburg high-speed highway, Natsproektstroy will purchase more than 400 units of special equipment from KAMAZ,” said Vitaly Savelyev.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Grassley, Fetterman Introduce Bipartisan Bill to Crack Down on Art Market Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing

    US Senate News:

    Source: United States Senator for Iowa Chuck Grassley

    WASHINGTON – Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) today introduced the Art Market Integrity Act. The bipartisan legislation would require art dealers and auction houses to comply with existing anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing regulations.

    “For decades, criminal enterprises have used America’s multibillion-dollar art industry as a personal piggy bank for money laundering schemes, terrorist financing and other nefarious activities. By requiring our nation’s art market to comply with existing anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing laws, this bipartisan legislation would keep art, and millions of dollars, out of the wrong hands,” Grassley said.

    “Art should be for art-lovers, not terrorists and criminals,” Fetterman said. “For too long, loopholes have allowed Russian criminal kingpins to evade sanctions and terrorists like Hezbollah to funnel money through art deals. I’m grateful to Senators Grassley, Whitehouse, and McCormick for working across the aisle to require art dealers and auction houses to perform basic due diligence. This needs to stop now.”

    The Art Market Integrity Act would:

    • Require art dealers and auction houses to maintain records and report on high-value art market transactions, exempting artists and businesses with under $50,000 in annual art transactions;
    • Align the United States with international standards adopted by the United Kingdom, European Union, Switzerland and China; and
    • Protect the United States’ national security, economic integrity and multibillion-dollar art market from criminals, terrorists, cartels and other bad actors.

    Grassley and Fetterman are joined by Sens. Dave McCormick (R-Pa.), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), Bill Cassidy (R-La.) and Andy Kim (D-N.J.).

    Download the full bill text HERE.

    Background:

    The United States’ art industry is valued at around $25 billion and is the largest of its kind globally. Despite this, our art market is not currently bound by the anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing standards set by the Bank Secrecy Act.

    In 2024, the Treasury Department identified America’s art market as being particularly susceptible to money laundering and sanctions evasion. High-profile cases have further highlighted the urgent need for art market reform, including the indictment of Hezbollah financier, Nazem Ahmad, who used art to evade terrorism-related sanctions to the tune of $160 million.

    ISTANBUL, July 23 (Xinhua) — Russian and Ukrainian delegations held the third round of peace talks at the Ciragan Palace in Istanbul on Wednesday, which started at 20:30 local time (17:30 GMT) and lasted for almost an hour and a half.

    The Russian and Ukrainian delegations were headed by Russian presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky and Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Rustem Umerov, respectively. The talks were chaired by Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and head of the Turkish National Intelligence Organization Ibrahim Kalin.

    At the end of the negotiations, V. Medinsky told journalists that the Russian side proposed creating three Russian-Ukrainian working groups that would work online to resolve political, humanitarian and military issues.

    He also noted that both sides agreed on another round of prisoner exchange.

    Before the start of the negotiations, H. Fidan made an opening speech in which he called on the delegations of both countries to engage in productive negotiations aimed at achieving a truce and ultimately ending the war.

    “Our goal is to put an end to this bloody war, which has cost too much, as soon as possible,” said H. Fidan.

    Two previous rounds of talks in Istanbul, held on May 16 and June 2, resulted in the exchange of thousands of prisoners of war and the bodies of dead soldiers, but produced little progress on achieving a ceasefire. –0–

  • MIL-OSI United Nations: UN rights mission deplores deadly Russian strikes in Ukraine

    Source: United Nations 2-b

    According to the UN mission, the overnight assault from Saturday into Sunday – one of the largest of its kind since Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022 – resulted in civilian casualties and damage to homes and infrastructure across 10 regions of Ukraine, including the capital, Kyiv.

    At least three children were among those killed and nine children were reported injured. The mission is currently working to verify the full extent of the casualties and the broader impact of the attack.

    “With at least 78 people reported killed or injured across the country, last night’s attack tragically demonstrates the persistent deadly risk to civilians of using powerful weapons in urban areas, including those far away from the frontline,” Danielle Bell, HRMMU Head, said in a news release on Sunday.

    “It is yet another addition to the staggering human toll this war continues to inflict on civilians, with more families across the country now grieving their losses.”

    No place is safe

    Matthias Schmale, the UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Ukraine, also voiced deep concern over the civilian suffering.

    “I am horrified that yet again civilians – among them children – were killed in last night’s massive attacks,” he said in a statement posted on the social media platform X.

    “Across Ukraine, no place is safe. Homes and civilian infrastructure were hit. Grateful to humanitarian NGOs and state services who are immediately supporting affected people. Civilians must never be a target.”

    Use of long-range weapons

    Ukrainian authorities reported that the Russian armed forces launched at least 367 missiles and loitering munitions during the night, in a coordinated attack with air, sea and land-based systems.

    The strike followed a similar assault the previous night, which had mainly targeted the Kyiv region.

    HRMMU noted that the use of long-range weapons in urban areas has been a major driver of civilian casualties in March and April. While the number of casualties in May had been somewhat lower than April before the latest attack, the toll from this weekend’s strikes will add to the monthly figures.

  • MIL-OSI United Nations: UN condemns deadly Russian strikes on Ukrainian capital as civilian toll mounts

    Source: United Nations 2-b

    According to the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine (HRMMU), more than 30 locations across seven districts of Kyiv were struck in what it described as “the deadliest attack” on the Ukrainian capital in nearly a year.

    “Last night’s attack exemplifies the grave threat posed by the tactic of deploying missiles and large numbers of drones simultaneously into populated areas,” said Danielle Bell, Head of HRMMU.

    Humanitarian Coordinator for Ukraine, Matthias Schmale, also strongly condemned the attacks, which extended to Odesa, Zaporizhzhia and other areas.

    “The people of Ukraine should not have to take cover in shelters night after night,” he said. “Each day, the war takes a devastating toll on civilians.”

    In the southern port city of Odesa, strikes reportedly injured several civilians and damaged a kindergarten and a centre for children with special needs – places where children should feel safe. In Zaporizhzhia, residential buildings were hit.

    First responders and humanitarian agencies are already on the ground, providing emergency care and supplies while assessing further needs.

    Human toll rising

    The barrage included 440 long-range drones and 32 missiles launched by Russian forces, HRMMU noted in a news release citing information from Ukrainian authorities, of which 175 drones and 14 missiles targeted Kyiv.

    It marked the fourth time this month that more than 400 munitions were fired in a single night – far surpassing the 544 total launched during the entire month of June 2024.

    Even before this latest attack, the human toll of such tactics had been rising sharply. HRMMU had already verified at least 29 civilian deaths and 126 injuries from long-range weapons in June alone.

    The overall civilian casualty count in the first five months of 2025 is nearly 50 per cent higher than in the same period last year.

    Mr. Schmale reiterated that attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure are prohibited under international humanitarian law.

    “Civilians, including children, must never be a target,” he said. “We must not normalize the war.”

    Refugee crisis deepens

    Meanwhile, the broader humanitarian crisis continues to deepen. The intense conflict, now in its third year since Russia’s full-scale invasion, has driven more than 6.3 million Ukrainians to seek refuge across Europe.

    Most are women, children, and older persons, many of whom rely on temporary protection directives extended by host countries like the European Union (EU) and Moldova, according to a report released on Tuesday by Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).

    Noting the volatile situation in Ukraine, the agency urged the respective governments to maintain legal status for refugees until conditions allow for safe, dignified, and sustainable returns.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Thailand downgrades diplomatic ties with Cambodia after border mine incident, Phnom Penh denies allegations

    BANGKOK/PHNOM PENH, July 23 (Xinhua) — Thailand downgraded its diplomatic ties with Cambodia on Wednesday after a landmine incident in a border area injured Thai soldiers, with the Cambodian side rejecting Thailand’s accusations.

    Acting Thai Prime Minister Phumtham Vechayachai ordered the downgrading of diplomatic relations, the recall of the Thai ambassador to Cambodia and the expulsion of the Cambodian ambassador, according to a statement released by the Prime Minister’s Office.

    “Thailand will continue to consider the level of bilateral relations with Cambodia,” the document says.

    In addition, Phumtham Vechayachai instructed the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs to send a note of protest to Cambodia in connection with the incident.

    Five soldiers were injured in a mine explosion while patrolling the border area, including one with serious leg injuries, the Thai army said. Three Thai soldiers were also injured in a similar mine explosion near the disputed area last week.

    Thai officials said the mines had been planted only recently and accused Cambodia of violating the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention (Ottawa Convention).

    The situation on the Thai-Cambodian border remains tense since a brief exchange of fire between the two sides in the disputed border area in late May left a Cambodian soldier dead.

    Cambodia on Wednesday rejected Thai allegations that Thai troops were injured in a landmine explosion, saying the incident occurred because the Thai side deviated from mutually agreed patrol routes.

    As Deputy Secretary of State and spokesperson for the Cambodian Ministry of Defense Lieutenant General Mali Socheata indicated, the defense ministry completely rejects the baseless accusations made by the Thai side in connection with the injury of five Thai soldiers due to a mine explosion on July 23.

    “Cambodia has repeatedly reminded the Thai side of the presence of large numbers of uncleared mines and explosive remnants of war in these areas and called on the Thai side to avoid violating mutually agreed patrol routes as stipulated in the 2000 memorandum of understanding,” the spokesperson said in a statement.

    Mali Socheata added that the Ministry of Defence and the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces reaffirm their full support for the Cambodian government’s position on resolving the border issue with Thailand through peaceful means and based on international law. –0–

    TBILISI, July 23 (Xinhua) — Georgia continues to demonstrate high resilience amid heightened domestic and geopolitical uncertainty, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said in a statement on Wednesday following its annual consultations.

    As noted in the statement, the Georgian economy maintains strong growth rates, inflation has stabilized near the target level, and public debt remains moderate. Such results were possible due to consistent macroeconomic policies, as well as stable domestic and external financial positions.

    The IMF estimates that growth should slow to potential levels as domestic demand weakens, while inflation and public debt will remain stable if prudent monetary and fiscal policies continue.

    Among the key challenges facing the Georgian economy, the IMF named high levels of structural unemployment, low productivity in agriculture, and a shortage of skilled labor. To overcome these difficulties, it recommended developing the vocational education system and increasing support for the agricultural sector. –0–

    Moscow, July 23 /Xinhua/ — China is ready to uphold justice and bring positive, stabilizing and constructive forces to world affairs together with its BRICS partners, Chinese Ambassador to Russia Zhang Hanhui said in an article titled “Consolidation of Agreements, Joining Efforts, Big BRICS Promotes Transformation of Global Governance,” published in the Russian newspaper Izvestia on Wednesday.

    “The Chinese side is ready to work with its BRICS partners to uphold justice, bring positive, stabilizing and constructive forces to world affairs, promote peaceful settlement of disputes and develop strategic solutions to eliminate the root causes of problems while objectively assessing the circumstances,” the publication says.

    As the Chinese diplomat noted, the 17th BRICS Leaders’ Meeting, which recently concluded in Rio de Janeiro, fully demonstrated the responsibility and readiness of the BRICS countries to become the “vanguard” of the Global South, and also emphasized the role of the association in protecting peace and stability throughout the world, promoting global open development, and advancing exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations.

    Zhang Hanhui stressed that the BRICS countries are the driving forces of economic growth. “In the context of the recession and trade disputes, we must focus on development,” he urged. According to the author of the publication, it is necessary to make efforts to build an open world economy, resolutely oppose unilateralism and protectionism, protect the fundamental principles of the World Trade Organization, promote the liberalization and simplification of trade and investment, and ensure the stability and smoothness of production and supply chains. The ambassador also reported that China has established the China Cooperation Center for the Development of Special Economic Zones in the BRICS Countries.

    The Chinese diplomat believes it is necessary to raise the level of international financial cooperation and open up new promising areas of economic growth, expand cooperation in new areas such as digital technology and green development. “China, through the Global Development Initiative, will create the Digital South brand and conduct 200 training programs on the digital economy and artificial intelligence for the countries of the Global South over the next five years,” he said, adding that this year China will establish the China-BRICS Research Center for New Productive Forces and establish a scholarship for BRICS countries to promote the training of personnel in sectors such as industry and telecommunications.

    Zhang Hanhui called the BRICS countries the initiators of inter-civilization dialogue and called for promoting exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations. He noted that China is ready to work with its BRICS partners to implement the Global Civilization Initiative in line with the civilizational concept of equality, mutual learning, dialogue and inclusiveness. The author of the article called for respecting the diversity of human civilizations, recognizing the right of peoples of different countries to seek ways to realize their values, rejecting any form of a “new Cold War” and ideological confrontation, continuously “enriching the palette” of human civilization, strengthening continuity, innovation and humanitarian exchanges in culture, actively promoting the protection of cultural heritage and the development of culture, and striving to create a harmonious atmosphere of mutual learning, exchanges and coexistence among various civilizations.

    Zhang Hanhui also pointed out that against the backdrop of accelerated changes unseen in a century, the concept of global governance put forward by Chinese President Xi Jinping is increasingly proving its modern value and practical significance. “In the face of growing conflicts and differences, it is necessary to intensify expanded consultations based on equality and mutual respect. Profound common interests require joint contributions based on solidarity,” the ambassador emphasized.

    According to the Chinese diplomat, thanks to the joint efforts of China, Russia and other BRICS partners, the BRICS cooperation mechanism has been continuously developed and strengthened, its representation has expanded, and its international influence has steadily increased. “BRICS provides an important platform for countries in the Global South to assert their right to development, safeguard international justice, and participate in the reform of the global governance system,” he said, adding that China will continue to follow the “BRICS spirit” and work with Russia and other BRICS partners to develop common values and protect common interests, making new contributions to building a community with a shared future for mankind. –0–

    Senator Marshall Joins The Joe Pags Show to Discuss DNI’s Russia Report
    Washington – On Wednesday, U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, M.D. (R-Kansas), joined Joe Pags on the Joe Pags Show to discuss Medicaid and rural hospitals, the MAHA agenda, what needs to be done to help improve American healthcare outcomes, and what will happen to the perpetrators identified in DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s recent report about the Russia misinformation scandal.

    Click HERE or on the image above to watch Senator Marshall’s full interview.
    On the challenges facing rural hospitals:
    “This is one of my favorite topics. You know, I practiced medicine for 25 years in one of these rural hospitals. I helped run the hospital, delivered a baby every day in one of these hospitals for 25 years. You know, the challenge right now for rural hospitals is the rural economy. We have many counties that have lost half their population. They’re all moving to big, wonderful cities like Kansas City and Wichita. So the rural economy is really struggling. Only 5% of Medicaid dollars ever make it to rural America. So yes, 60% of rural hospitals are really struggling.
    And enter the One Big, Beautiful Bill – we try to help the rural economy by helping out with crop insurance, reference prices, doubling the death tax, and some of those types of business tax issues as well. So I think it’s the economy, right?”
    On Democrat misinformation regarding Medicaid and rural hospitals:“Joe, I think the left controls 90% of the message. They control the national media; it is that simple. But I came to Washington, DC, to save healthcare, and I think that we’ve saved Medicaid. For now, we’ve saved it. We put it back on solid financial footing so that Medicaid is there for those who need it the most. For senior citizens in nursing homes, for people with disabilities, for pregnant women, for children.
    “No one’s going to lose Medicaid unless they’re on it illegally, and there are 2 million people on it illegally right now. 2 million people getting it from two states right now. And then, the only other people that will lose their Medicaid are people that refuse to work. And all we’re asking is people work for 20 hours a week. When did having a job, when was that considered punishment? Why is that a bad thing?
    “I’m going to give you one more stat, Joe, is that 20 years ago, there was only 7 million healthy people on Medicaid. Today, there’s 34 million healthy people on Medicaid. Let’s help those people find a job. Let’s give them education. Let’s help give them a hand up, and not a handout.”
    On the importance of verifying people’s status for Medicaid:
    “So this would be Medicaid expansion as you know it. So, Medicaid expansion gives Medicaid to healthy people that are above the poverty line. And then they stopped really doing any types of checks and balances on people. People could just walk in and say, I don’t have a job, I’m not making any money, they would never verify it. But we had the technology data actually verify those things pretty easily, and then we would just check things once a year. So I understand, look, I want to help medicate people out, I want to make sure no one goes to bed hungry, but this idea of just checking people once a year, not verifying their story, is just dishonest.”
    On improving the quality of VA care:
    “So Joe, again, what’s important to me: my dad served, my brother served, I served, my son is serving everyone. Every generation of my family, someone has served. I want to make sure that we fulfill the promise we made to veterans, but it’s been done inefficiently. It’s amazing, when President Trump 45 was in office, the wait times went down for our veterans, the care was going up, and the patient satisfaction was going up.
    “But under Joe Biden, they hired more and more administrator-type of people. And now President Trump went in there and said, ‘we don’t want all this bloated administration.’ There’s hundreds of billions of dollars that we’re increasing every year for veterans. We want to make sure it’s patient interfacing. So it’s the counselors, it’s the nurses, it’s the physical therapists. Those are the people we want. We don’t want more and more bureaucrats setting up here in the VA, here in Washington, DC.”
    On what might replace Obamacare:
    “Absolutely, and we’ve had these conversations. My big three themes for fixing health care when I came here was anything that makes health care more transparent, anything that promotes innovation, and anything that makes patients consumers again, would drive down the cost of health care. And President Trump already has issued many executive orders on the transparency part of this that are coming to fruition as well… making hospitals show you what they’re going to charge you for if you need an MRI, make that imaging center share with you what it’s going to cost so consumers can shop more.
    “So our big thrust of legislation this semester, as I call it, is we dropped a big transparency bill, which in many cases is codifying what President Trump’s executive orders are. And then there’s an issue called prior authorization, where Medicare Advantage companies, especially, are trying to prevent patients from getting the care they need.
    “So I was recently with the White House and Dr. Oz, and Secretary Kennedy, putting some more rules around what they can and can’t do as far as withholding health care. So, absolutely, those conversations that went on since day one, and I’m very proud to work beside Dr. Oz, Dr. McCary, over in FDA, as well as Secretary Kennedy.”
    On healthcare cost transparency and medical monopolies:
    “Joe, I’m not sure if I have a great answer. I can certainly tell you that I believe that insurance companies and big hospitals wrote the ACA. And they knew exactly what they were doing. Through the years, increased regulations have led to monopolies. So, you think about healthcare in each community. There’s one hospital; there’s usually one or two insurance companies that control 80% of the market in the entire state as well. So, through the years, these monopolies have allowed them to do it more.
    “So, physicians would like to own hospitals. Hospitals can own physicians, but physicians cannot own hospitals. We would like to come back in and have more competition, but that was outlawed by the ACA as well. So, whenever there’s overregulation, that’s going to lead to consolidation of the industry and get them more and more free rein.”
    On the job that HHS Secretary Kennedy is doing thus far:
    “Well, I think we’re just getting started again. The backdrop of this is 60% of Americans have a chronic disease. We’re spending 90% of our healthcare dollars on those chronic diseases, think heart disease, hypertension, obesity, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, cancer, and anxiety. Those seven diseases are taking up 90% of [the] dollars [spent]. We think that there’s a significant nutritional component to all those. I think that we’re going to find that alzheimers is type three diabetes.
    “So, what can we do nutritionally to prevent those as well as treat them. So I’ve worked, obviously, I’ve grown up in agriculture, so I’ve had a foot in agriculture my whole life, a foot in healthcare since I was 23 or so, I started medical school, I guess.
    “So, as I listened to MAHA, I listened to the American farmers, and said: Where do we meet? How do we get healthy food? Well, I think it starts with healthy soil. It’s kind of a dirty topic, if you will, but that’s the focus. That’s what we’re working with, Secretary Kennedy and Secretary Rollins at Agriculture, who’s doing an incredible job, is trying to work with our farmers to make healthier soil, which is going to lead to healthy food and healthy people. And by the way, American farmers are doing so many great things already in this area.
    “So, I’ve been sharing with Secretary Kennedy best practices where we’re growing more with less. We’re decreasing by 90% the amount of fertilizer and pesticides that are leaving our field. We’re decreasing the amount that we’re putting on by 60% through modern-day agriculture practices. So, we’re working on this transition to get everybody practicing this regenerative agriculture.”
    On DNI Gabbard’s Russia misinformation report:
    “Joe, this is certainly new information to me. This White House meeting, with documentation of that meeting, adds Joe Biden’s name to being in that meeting as well. And I think what that document shows is this is the greatest betrayal of American trust in my lifetime. And you’re out there, your listeners right now, you’re sitting there thinking, well, the Democrats lied to us about COVID. They lied to us about Joe Biden’s health. And here’s his Royal Highness Barack Obama, that he lied to us as well and really organized this fraud, of what happened in this, Russia, Russia, Russia hoax.
    “And certainly the FISA court abuse, we knew all about that, but this is news to me that we can actually trace this all the way back to it to one Oval Office meeting, and they absolutely contradicted what the intelligence community was saying. I think that’s accurate.”
    On what will happen to the perpetrators of the hoax:
    “Yeah, Joe, I think it’s all the above. Certainly, we need the Justice Department to go full speed ahead and do whatever they can do. And meanwhile, the House and the Senate both have investigative committees. James Comer leads that over on the House side, and Rand Paul here on the Senate side. Ron Johnson also has a subcommittee that can focus on this as well. So, all of this needs to happen. Congress’s job is to expose everything and then let the Justice Department prosecute.
    “But regardless of where it goes, Joe, I think the story here, to me, is this betrayal of American trust as a physician. One of the first things I learned is that once you lose your reputation, you never get it back. And Americans don’t trust the federal government right now, and why would they right? So, I’m trying to work day and night to help restore that trust, but I think the Democrats just keep digging and digging a hole further and deeper. You know, the first thing you need to do when you’re in a hole is to stop digging. And here they are again, once again, in a deep, deep hole.”
    On the American right wanting to see arrests:
    “Joe, I sure hope so. I just want to tell you, you sound like my wife. You sound like my mom and dad. They say why isn’t somebody in handcuffs? Everything Hillary Clinton did to erase those emails. And the FISA court abuse. I’m not satisfied. You know, the judges should have paid the price for that. Everyone involved in that food chain of the FISA court abuse should have been fired at a minimum. And maybe one person went to jail, as I recall that.
    “So here we are. This is the next chapter of the FISA court abuse, and I think that’s what gives this story legs is… you dove into that story. I dove into that story, saying, my gosh, how did they do this? How did they fall for this, I mean, without orchestrating it? I sure hope so. I’m not a person to overpromise and underdeliver. I do think that Pam Bondi is serious. She would love to throw someone in jail. And I have a feeling Tulsi Gabbard would as well.”

    MOLINE, Ill., July 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — QCR Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: QCRH) (the “Company”) today announced quarterly net income of $29.0 million and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $1.71 for the second quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $25.8 million and diluted EPS of $1.52 for the first quarter of 2025.

    Adjusted net income1 and adjusted diluted EPS1 for the second quarter of 2025 were $29.4 million and $1.73, respectively, for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $26.0 million and $1.53, respectively, for the first quarter of 2025 and $29.3 million, and $1.73 respectively for the second quarter of 2024.

      For the Quarter Ended    
      June 30, March 31, June 30,    
    $ in millions (except per share data)  2025  2025  2024    
    Net Income $ 29.0 $ 25.8 $ 29.1    
    Diluted EPS $ 1.71 $ 1.52 $ 1.72    
    Adjusted Net Income1 $ 29.4 $ 26.0 $ 29.3    
    Adjusted Diluted EPS1 $ 1.73 $ 1.53 $ 1.73    

    “We delivered strong second quarter results highlighted by a significant increase in net interest income from the previous quarter, driven by both net interest margin expansion and strong loan growth, as well as improved capital markets revenue, and disciplined noninterest expense management,” said Todd Gipple, President and Chief Executive Officer. “These robust results led to continued capital accretion and a substantial increase in tangible book value per share1.”

    Significant Net Interest Income Growth as Margin Expansion Continues

    Net interest income for the second quarter of 2025 totaled $62.1 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 14% annualized, from the first quarter of 2025, driven by strong earning asset growth, expanded yield on loans and investments, and lower cost of funds.   Net interest margin (“NIM”) was 2.97% and NIM on a tax-equivalent yield (“TEY”) basis1 was 3.46% for the second quarter, as compared to 2.95% and 3.42% for the prior quarter, respectively.

    “Our NIM TEY1 increased four basis points from the first quarter of 2025, which was at the top of our guidance range,” said Nick Anderson, Chief Financial Officer. “Looking ahead, we anticipate continued margin expansion and are guiding to an increase in third quarter NIM TEY1 in a range from static to an increase of four basis points, assuming no Federal Reserve rate cuts,” added Mr. Anderson.

    Improving Noninterest Income Driven by Capital Markets Revenue

    Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 was $22.1 million, up from $16.9 million in the first quarter of 2025. The Company generated $9.9 million of capital markets revenue in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $6.5 million in the prior quarter. Wealth management revenue totaled $4.6 million, representing a slight decline from the first quarter of 2025. However, it increased $332 thousand or 8% compared to the second quarter of 2024 and rose 23% year-to-date on an annualized basis compared to the same period in 2024.

    “During the second quarter of 2025 we saw improved low-income housing tax credit (“LIHTC”) lending activity compared to the first quarter as clients adjusted to the current environment. This increased activity drove 51% growth in our capital markets revenue. The sustained, long-term demand for affordable housing continues to support our LIHTC lending and related capital markets revenue. Our pipeline continues to improve as clients adapt to the evolving market conditions,” said Mr. Gipple.

    “Given the strengthened pipeline, we are reaffirming our guidance for Capital Markets revenue to be in a range of $50 to $60 million for the next four quarters.  In addition, we are also providing guidance over a shorter horizon and expect capital markets revenue for the third quarter to be fully back to a more normalized level and in a range of $13 to $16 million for the quarter,” added Mr. Gipple.

    Disciplined Noninterest Expense Management

    Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 totaled $49.6 million compared to $46.5 million for the first quarter of 2025 and $49.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. The $3.1 million linked-quarter increase was primarily due to higher capital markets revenue and strong loan growth resulting in an improved return on average assets which drove higher variable compensation. Professional and data processing expenses also increased and were related to the Company’s digital transformation.   

    “While expenses increased compared to the first quarter, we held noninterest expense under the low end of our guidance range of $50 to $53 million, highlighting our expense flexibility,” said Mr. Anderson. “Noninterest expense remains well managed, down 9% year to date on an annualized basis compared to the same period in 2024. The Company’s efficiency ratio1 was 58.9% in the second quarter. For the third quarter of 2025, we expect noninterest expense to be in the range of $52 to $55, million which includes certain costs associated with our digital transformation and assumes both capital markets revenue and loan growth are within our guidance range,” added Mr. Anderson.

    Strong Loan Growth

    In the second quarter of 2025, the Company’s total loans and leases held for investment grew by $102.6 million, to $6.9 billion. “Loan growth was 8% annualized when adding back the impact from the planned runoff of m2 Equipment Finance loans and leases. Second quarter loan growth was driven by both our LIHTC and traditional lending businesses. Our pipeline is strong, and we anticipate loan demand to increase as clients continue to adapt to current market conditions,” stated Mr. Gipple. “We continue to be optimistic about solid loan growth for the remainder of the year and are guiding to gross loan growth in a range of 8% to 10% in the second half of the year,” added Mr. Gipple.

    Maintaining Core Deposit Strength

    Following the robust deposit growth of $276.2 million, or 16% annualized, in the first quarter of 2025, the majority of those balances were retained throughout the second quarter. Total deposits declined slightly by $19.0 million, or 1% annualized from the first quarter, while average deposit balances increased $72.0 million. Year-to-date, core deposits have increased by $311 million, or 9% annualized.

    Asset Quality Remains Excellent

    The nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) to total assets ratio was 0.46% as of June 30, 2025, down seven basis points from the prior quarter. NPAs totaled $42.7 million at the end of the second quarter of 2025, a $5.5 million, or 11% decrease from the prior quarter.

    Total criticized loans increased by $9.3 million on a linked-quarter basis. The ratio of criticized loans to total loans and leases as of June 30, 2025, increased to 2.16% as compared to 2.06% as of March 31, 2025. Despite the 10 basis point increase, the criticized loan ratio remains well below the Company’s long-term historical average.

    The Company recorded a total provision for credit losses of $4.0 million during the quarter, which was down slightly from $4.2 million in the prior quarter. Net charge-offs were $6.3 million during the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $2.1 million from the prior quarter primarily due to the charge-off of loans that had previously been fully reserved. The allowance for credit losses to total loans held for investment was 1.28% for the second quarter.

    Strong Tangible Book Value and Regulatory Capital Growth

    The Company’s tangible book value per share1 increased by $1.64, or 13% annualized, during the second quarter of 2025 due to the combination of strong earnings and a modest dividend.

    As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio (“TCE”)1 increased 22 basis points to 9.92%. The improvement in TCE1 was driven by strong earnings during the quarter. The total risk-based capital ratio increased to 14.26% and the common equity tier 1 ratio increased to 10.43% due to solid earnings growth during the quarter. By comparison, these ratios were 9.70%, 14.18%, and 10.27%, respectively, as of March 31, 2025. The Company remains focused on growing its regulatory capital.

    (1 ) Adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per common share, adjusted return on average assets and average equity are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s management believes that these measurements are important to investors as they exclude non-core or non-recurring income and expense items, therefore, they provide a more realistic run-rate for future periods. In compliance with applicable rules of the SEC, these non-GAAP measures are reconciled to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
    (2 ) Non-core or non-recurring items (post-tax) are calculated using an estimated effective federal tax rate of 21% with the exception of goodwill impairment which is not deductible for tax.    
    (3 ) Interest earned and yields on nontaxable securities and loans are determined on a tax equivalent basis using a 21% effective federal tax rate.        
    (4 ) Net interest margin (TEY) is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s management utilizes this measurement to take into account the tax benefit associated with certain loans and securities. It is also standard industry practice to measure net interest margin using tax-equivalent measures.

    Adjusted net income1 and adjusted diluted EPS1 for the second quarter of 2025 were $29.4 million and $1.73, respectively, for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $26.0 million and $1.53, respectively, for the first quarter of 2025 and $29.3 million, and $1.73 respectively for the second quarter of 2024.

      For the Quarter Ended    
      June 30, March 31, June 30,    
    $ in millions (except per share data)  2025  2025  2024    
    Net Income $ 29.0 $ 25.8 $ 29.1    
    Diluted EPS $ 1.71 $ 1.52 $ 1.72    
    Adjusted Net Income1 $ 29.4 $ 26.0 $ 29.3    
    Adjusted Diluted EPS1 $ 1.73 $ 1.53 $ 1.73    

    “We delivered strong second quarter results highlighted by a significant increase in net interest income from the previous quarter, driven by both net interest margin expansion and strong loan growth, as well as improved capital markets revenue, and disciplined noninterest expense management,” said Todd Gipple, President and Chief Executive Officer. “These robust results led to continued capital accretion and a substantial increase in tangible book value per share1.”

    Significant Net Interest Income Growth as Margin Expansion Continues

    Net interest income for the second quarter of 2025 totaled $62.1 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 14% annualized, from the first quarter of 2025, driven by strong earning asset growth, expanded yield on loans and investments, and lower cost of funds.   Net interest margin (“NIM”) was 2.97% and NIM on a tax-equivalent yield (“TEY”) basis1 was 3.46% for the second quarter, as compared to 2.95% and 3.42% for the prior quarter, respectively.

    “Our NIM TEY1 increased four basis points from the first quarter of 2025, which was at the top of our guidance range,” said Nick Anderson, Chief Financial Officer. “Looking ahead, we anticipate continued margin expansion and are guiding to an increase in third quarter NIM TEY1 in a range from static to an increase of four basis points, assuming no Federal Reserve rate cuts,” added Mr. Anderson.

    Improving Noninterest Income Driven by Capital Markets Revenue

    Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 was $22.1 million, up from $16.9 million in the first quarter of 2025. The Company generated $9.9 million of capital markets revenue in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $6.5 million in the prior quarter. Wealth management revenue totaled $4.6 million, representing a slight decline from the first quarter of 2025. However, it increased $332 thousand or 8% compared to the second quarter of 2024 and rose 23% year-to-date on an annualized basis compared to the same period in 2024.

    “During the second quarter of 2025 we saw improved low-income housing tax credit (“LIHTC”) lending activity compared to the first quarter as clients adjusted to the current environment. This increased activity drove 51% growth in our capital markets revenue. The sustained, long-term demand for affordable housing continues to support our LIHTC lending and related capital markets revenue. Our pipeline continues to improve as clients adapt to the evolving market conditions,” said Mr. Gipple.

    “Given the strengthened pipeline, we are reaffirming our guidance for Capital Markets revenue to be in a range of $50 to $60 million for the next four quarters.  In addition, we are also providing guidance over a shorter horizon and expect capital markets revenue for the third quarter to be fully back to a more normalized level and in a range of $13 to $16 million for the quarter,” added Mr. Gipple.

    Disciplined Noninterest Expense Management

    Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 totaled $49.6 million compared to $46.5 million for the first quarter of 2025 and $49.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. The $3.1 million linked-quarter increase was primarily due to higher capital markets revenue and strong loan growth resulting in an improved return on average assets which drove higher variable compensation. Professional and data processing expenses also increased and were related to the Company’s digital transformation.   

    “While expenses increased compared to the first quarter, we held noninterest expense under the low end of our guidance range of $50 to $53 million, highlighting our expense flexibility,” said Mr. Anderson. “Noninterest expense remains well managed, down 9% year to date on an annualized basis compared to the same period in 2024. The Company’s efficiency ratio1 was 58.9% in the second quarter. For the third quarter of 2025, we expect noninterest expense to be in the range of $52 to $55, million which includes certain costs associated with our digital transformation and assumes both capital markets revenue and loan growth are within our guidance range,” added Mr. Anderson.

    Strong Loan Growth

    In the second quarter of 2025, the Company’s total loans and leases held for investment grew by $102.6 million, to $6.9 billion. “Loan growth was 8% annualized when adding back the impact from the planned runoff of m2 Equipment Finance loans and leases. Second quarter loan growth was driven by both our LIHTC and traditional lending businesses. Our pipeline is strong, and we anticipate loan demand to increase as clients continue to adapt to current market conditions,” stated Mr. Gipple. “We continue to be optimistic about solid loan growth for the remainder of the year and are guiding to gross loan growth in a range of 8% to 10% in the second half of the year,” added Mr. Gipple.

    Maintaining Core Deposit Strength

    Following the robust deposit growth of $276.2 million, or 16% annualized, in the first quarter of 2025, the majority of those balances were retained throughout the second quarter. Total deposits declined slightly by $19.0 million, or 1% annualized from the first quarter, while average deposit balances increased $72.0 million. Year-to-date, core deposits have increased by $311 million, or 9% annualized.

    Asset Quality Remains Excellent

    The nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) to total assets ratio was 0.46% as of June 30, 2025, down seven basis points from the prior quarter. NPAs totaled $42.7 million at the end of the second quarter of 2025, a $5.5 million, or 11% decrease from the prior quarter.

    Total criticized loans increased by $9.3 million on a linked-quarter basis. The ratio of criticized loans to total loans and leases as of June 30, 2025, increased to 2.16% as compared to 2.06% as of March 31, 2025. Despite the 10 basis point increase, the criticized loan ratio remains well below the Company’s long-term historical average.

    The Company recorded a total provision for credit losses of $4.0 million during the quarter, which was down slightly from $4.2 million in the prior quarter. Net charge-offs were $6.3 million during the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $2.1 million from the prior quarter primarily due to the charge-off of loans that had previously been fully reserved. The allowance for credit losses to total loans held for investment was 1.28% for the second quarter.

    Strong Tangible Book Value and Regulatory Capital Growth

    The Company’s tangible book value per share1 increased by $1.64, or 13% annualized, during the second quarter of 2025 due to the combination of strong earnings and a modest dividend.

    As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio (“TCE”)1 increased 22 basis points to 9.92%. The improvement in TCE1 was driven by strong earnings during the quarter. The total risk-based capital ratio increased to 14.26% and the common equity tier 1 ratio increased to 10.43% due to solid earnings growth during the quarter. By comparison, these ratios were 9.70%, 14.18%, and 10.27%, respectively, as of March 31, 2025. The Company remains focused on growing its regulatory capital.

In compliance with applicable rules of the SEC, these non-GAAP measures are reconciled to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
    (2 ) Non-core or non-recurring items (post-tax) are calculated using an estimated effective federal tax rate of 21% with the exception of goodwill impairment which is not deductible for tax.    
    (3 ) Interest earned and yields on nontaxable securities and loans are determined on a tax equivalent basis using a 21% effective federal tax rate.        
    (4 ) Net interest margin (TEY) is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s management utilizes this measurement to take into account the tax benefit associated with certain loans and securities. It is also standard industry practice to measure net interest margin using tax-equivalent measures. In compliance with applicable rules of the SEC, this non-GAAP measure is reconciled to net interest income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.  In addition, the Company calculates net interest margin without the impact of acquisition accounting net accretion as this can fluctuate and it’s difficult to provide a more realistic run-rate for future periods.
    (5 ) Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure. The Company’s management utilizes this ratio to compare to industry peers. The ratio is used to calculate overhead as a percentage of revenue. In compliance with the applicable rules of the SEC, this non-GAAP measure is reconciled to noninterest expense, net interest income and noninterest income, which are the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

  • MIL-OSI: Horizon Bancorp, Inc. Reports Strong Second Quarter 2025 Results Led by Continued Net Interest Margin Expansion

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., July 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — (NASDAQ GS: HBNC) – Horizon Bancorp, Inc. (“Horizon” or the “Company”), the parent company of Horizon Bank (the “Bank”), announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

    “Horizon’s second quarter earnings reflect the strength of the organization’s exceptional core community banking franchise. Strong loan growth, stable and granular core funding, excellent credit quality and prudent management of expenses fueled the quarter’s positive results and expanded on management’s commitment to improve the financial performance of the Company. The quarter was highlighted by a seventh consecutive quarter of net interest margin expansion, low net charge offs of 2 bps annualized and enhanced momentum in key performance metrics of ROAA and ROATCE”, President and CEO, Thomas Prame stated. “We continue to show strength across our core community banking platform that is being driven by a disciplined approach to creating a more efficient balance sheet and effective deployment of capital. We are pleased with our results through the first six months of 2025, with reported earnings per share growing by 58% versus the comparable period a year ago, and look forward to continuing to create additional shareholder value throughout the remainder of the year.”

    Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $20.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to net income of $23.9 million, or $0.54, for the first quarter of 2025 and compared to net income of $14.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. As previously disclosed, results in the first quarter of 2025 included the $7.0 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the Company’s mortgage warehouse business.

    Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $44.6 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, compared to net income of $28.1 million, or $0.64, for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

    Second Quarter 2025 Highlights

    • Net interest income of $55.4 million increased 5.9% compared with $52.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 22.3% compared with $45.3 million in the year ago period. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis1, expanded for the seventh consecutive quarter, to 3.23%, compared with 3.04% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2.64% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
    • Total loans held for investment (“HFI”) increased 6.2% compared to the linked quarter annualized, with strong organic commercial loan growth of $117.2 million, or 14.8% annualized. This growth was partially funded by the continued strategic runoff of lower yielding indirect auto loans of approximately $34.1 million.
    • Funding continued to trend favorably, with non-time deposit balances remaining relatively flat for the fourth consecutive quarter and interest-bearing liability cost declining by another 2 bps during the quarter.
    • Credit quality remained strong, with annualized net charge offs of 0.02% of average loans during the second quarter. Non-performing assets remain well within expected ranges, decreasing 12.4% from the prior quarter.
    • Expenses continued to be well managed, up less than 1% from the first quarter of 2025. These results reflect management’s commitment to generate higher earnings while maintaining a more efficient expense base.

    Income Statement Highlights

    Net Interest Income

    Net interest income was $55.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $52.3 million in the first quarter of 2025, driven by the continued expansion of the Company’s net FTE interest margin1, which increased to 3.23% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 3.04% for the first quarter of 2025. Expansion was attributable to the favorable mix shift in average interest earning assets toward higher-yielding loans and in the average funding mix toward deposit balances, in addition to continued disciplined pricing strategies on both sides of the balance sheet. The second quarter net FTE interest margin did benefit by approximately seven basis points related to interest recoveries on certain commercial and residential loans.

    Provision for Credit Losses

    During the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.5 million. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $1.4 million during the first quarter of 2025, and $2.4 million during the second quarter of 2024. The increase in the provision for credit losses during the second quarter of 2025 when compared with the first quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to net growth in commercial loans HFI and changes in economic factors, partially offset by the reduction of specific reserves and the reserves for unfunded commitments in the current quarter.

    For the second quarter of 2025, the allowance for credit losses included net charge-offs of $0.3 million, or an annualized 0.02% of average loans outstanding, compared to net charge-offs of $0.9 million, or an annualized 0.07% of average loans outstanding for the first quarter of 2025, and net charge-offs of $0.6 million, or an annualized 0.05% of average loans outstanding, in the second quarter of 2024.

    The Company’s allowance for credit losses as a percentage of period-end loans HFI was 1.09% at June 30, 2025, compared to 1.07% at March 31, 2025 and 1.08% at June 30, 2024.

    Total non-interest income was $10.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to non-interest income of $16.5 million in the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in non-interest income of $5.6 million is due to the sale of the Company’s mortgage warehouse business to an unrelated third party in the first quarter of 2025, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $7.0 million that did not recur in the current period. Interchange fees and gain on sale of mortgage loans benefited from normal seasonality, while other categories remained relatively unchanged when compared with the prior period.

    Total non-interest expense was $39.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared with $39.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. The increase in non-interest expense during the second quarter of 2025 when compared with the prior period was primarily driven by a $0.5 million increase in loan expense. The increase was partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in net occupancy expenses. Additionally, the Company incurred $0.3 million of direct expenses related to the sale of the mortgage warehouse business in the prior period that did not recur in the current period.   

    Income Taxes

    Horizon recorded a net tax expense of $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing an effective tax rate of 15.4%, which is consistent with the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

    Balance Sheet Highlights

    Total assets increased by $23.4 million, or 0.3%, to $7.7 billion as of June 30, 2025, from $7.6 billion as of March 31, 2025. The increase in total assets is primarily due to increases in loans HFI and non-interest earning cash, partially offset by a decrease in interest earning cash and investment securities. Total investment securities decreased by $24.2 million, or 1.2%, to $2.1 billion as of June 30, 2025. Total loans were $5.0 billion at June 30, 2025, an increase of $75.5 million from March 31, 2025 balances, due to organic commercial loan growth net of continued runoff in the indirect consumer portfolio.

    Total deposits decreased by $66.0 million, or 1.1%, to $5.7 billion as of June 30, 2025 when compared to balances as of March 31, 2025. The decrease was partially related to a decline in time deposits of $51.9 million, or 4.2% and, to a lesser extent, a modest decrease in savings and money market deposits of $7.0 million, or 0.4%. Non-interest bearing deposit balances remained relatively unchanged in the current period. Total borrowings increased by $68.1 million during the quarter, to $880.3 million as of June 30, 2025. Balances subject to repurchase agreements increased by $7.2 million, to $95.1 million.

    Capital

    The following table presents the consolidated regulatory capital ratios of the Company for the previous three quarters, and the Company’s preliminary estimate of its consolidated regulatory capital ratios for the quarter ended June 30, 2025:

    For the Quarter Ended June 30,   March 31,   December 31,   September 30,
      2025*   2025   2024   2024
    Consolidated Capital Ratios              
    Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)   14.48 %     14.26 %     13.91 %     13.45 %
    Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets)   12.52       12.33       12.00       11.63  
    Common equity tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets)   11.52       11.32       11.00       10.68  
    Tier 1 capital (to average assets)   9.59       9.25       8.88       9.02  
    *Preliminary estimate – may be subject to change    
         

    As of June 30, 2025, the ratio of total stockholders’ equity to total assets is 10.34%. Book value per common share was $18.06, increasing $0.34 during the second quarter of 2025.

    Tangible common equity3 totaled $627.1 million at June 30, 2025, and the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets1 was 8.37% at June 30, 2025, up from 8.19% at March 31, 2025. Tangible book value, which excludes intangible assets from total equity, per common share1 was $14.32, increasing $0.36 during the second quarter of 2025 behind the growth in retained earnings.

    Credit Quality

    As of June 30, 2025, total non-accrual loans decreased by $4.5 million, or 15.7%, from March 31, 2025, to 0.49% of total loans HFI. Total non-performing assets decreased $3.9 million, or 12.4%, to $27.5 million, compared to $31.4 million as of March 31, 2025. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets decreased to 0.36% compared to 0.41% as of March 31, 2025.

    As of June 30, 2025, net charge-offs decreased by $0.6 million to $0.3 million, compared to $0.9 million as of March 31, 2025 and remain just 0.02% annualized of average loans.

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Certain information set forth in this press release refers to financial measures determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, we have included non-GAAP financial measures relating to net income, diluted earnings per share, pre-tax, pre-provision net income, net interest margin, tangible stockholders’ equity and tangible book value per share, efficiency ratio, the return on average assets, the return on average common equity, and return on average tangible equity. In each case, we have identified special circumstances that we consider to be non-recurring and have excluded them. Horizon believes these non-GAAP financial measures are helpful to investors and provide a greater understanding of our business and financial results without giving effect to one-time costs and non–recurring items. These measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measure.

Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “will” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance.

    Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially include: effects on Horizon’s business resulting from new U.S. domestic or foreign governmental trade measures, including but not limited to tariffs, import and export controls, foreign exchange intervention accomplished to offset the effects of trade policy or in response to currency volatility, and other restrictions on free trade; uncertain conditions within the domestic and international macroeconomic environment, including trade policy, monetary and fiscal policy, and conditions in the investment, credit, interest rate, and derivatives markets, and their impact on Horizon and its customers; current financial conditions within the banking industry; changes in the level and volatility of interest rates, changes in spreads on earning assets and changes in interest bearing liabilities; increased interest rate sensitivity; the aggregate effects of elevated inflation levels in recent years; loss of key Horizon personnel; increases in disintermediation; potential loss of fee income, including interchange fees, as new and emerging alternative payment platforms take a greater market share of the payment systems; estimates of fair value of certain of Horizon’s assets and liabilities; changes in prepayment speeds, loan originations, credit losses, market values, collateral securing loans and other assets; changes in sources of liquidity; legislative and regulatory actions and reforms; changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be adopted and required by regulatory agencies; litigation, regulatory enforcement, and legal compliance risk and costs; rapid technological developments and changes; cyber terrorism and data security breaches; the rising costs of cybersecurity; the ability of the U.S. federal government to manage federal debt limits; climate change and social justice initiatives; the inability to realize cost savings or revenues or to effectively implement integration plans and other consequences associated with mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; acts of terrorism, war and global conflicts, such as the Russia and Ukraine conflict and the Israel and Hamas conflict; and supply chain disruptions and delays. These and additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are discussed in Horizon’s reports (such as the Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the SEC and available at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).

    (1) Securities balances represent daily average balances for the fair value of securities. The average rate is calculated based on the daily average balance for the amortized cost of securities.
    (2) Includes fees on loans held for sale and held for investment. The inclusion of loan fees does not have a material effect on the average interest rate.
    (3) Non-accruing loans for the purpose of the computation above are included in the daily average loan amounts outstanding. Loan totals are shown net of unearned income and deferred loan fees.
    (4) Management believes fully taxable equivalent, or FTE, interest income is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance as a comparison of the returns between a tax-free investment and a taxable alternative. The Company adjusts interest income and average rates for tax-exempt loans and securities to an FTE basis utilizing a 21% tax rate.
    (5) Non-GAAP financial metric. See non-GAAP reconciliation included herein for the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
    (6) Includes dividend income on Federal Home Loan Bank stock

    July 24, 2025
  • MIL-OSI: Horizon Bancorp, Inc. Reports Strong Second Quarter 2025 Results Led by Continued Net Interest Margin Expansion

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., July 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — (NASDAQ GS: HBNC) – Horizon Bancorp, Inc. (“Horizon” or the “Company”), the parent company of Horizon Bank (the “Bank”), announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

    “Horizon’s second quarter earnings reflect the strength of the organization’s exceptional core community banking franchise. Strong loan growth, stable and granular core funding, excellent credit quality and prudent management of expenses fueled the quarter’s positive results and expanded on management’s commitment to improve the financial performance of the Company. The quarter was highlighted by a seventh consecutive quarter of net interest margin expansion, low net charge offs of 2 bps annualized and enhanced momentum in key performance metrics of ROAA and ROATCE”, President and CEO, Thomas Prame stated. “We continue to show strength across our core community banking platform that is being driven by a disciplined approach to creating a more efficient balance sheet and effective deployment of capital. We are pleased with our results through the first six months of 2025, with reported earnings per share growing by 58% versus the comparable period a year ago, and look forward to continuing to create additional shareholder value throughout the remainder of the year.”

    Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $20.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to net income of $23.9 million, or $0.54, for the first quarter of 2025 and compared to net income of $14.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. As previously disclosed, results in the first quarter of 2025 included the $7.0 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the Company’s mortgage warehouse business.

    Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $44.6 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, compared to net income of $28.1 million, or $0.64, for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

    Second Quarter 2025 Highlights

    • Net interest income of $55.4 million increased 5.9% compared with $52.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 22.3% compared with $45.3 million in the year ago period. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis1, expanded for the seventh consecutive quarter, to 3.23%, compared with 3.04% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2.64% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
    • Total loans held for investment (“HFI”) increased 6.2% compared to the linked quarter annualized, with strong organic commercial loan growth of $117.2 million, or 14.8% annualized. This growth was partially funded by the continued strategic runoff of lower yielding indirect auto loans of approximately $34.1 million.
    • Funding continued to trend favorably, with non-time deposit balances remaining relatively flat for the fourth consecutive quarter and interest-bearing liability cost declining by another 2 bps during the quarter.
    • Credit quality remained strong, with annualized net charge offs of 0.02% of average loans during the second quarter. Non-performing assets remain well within expected ranges, decreasing 12.4% from the prior quarter.
    • Expenses continued to be well managed, up less than 1% from the first quarter of 2025. These results reflect management’s commitment to generate higher earnings while maintaining a more efficient expense base.

    Income Statement Highlights

    Net Interest Income

    Net interest income was $55.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $52.3 million in the first quarter of 2025, driven by the continued expansion of the Company’s net FTE interest margin1, which increased to 3.23% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 3.04% for the first quarter of 2025. Expansion was attributable to the favorable mix shift in average interest earning assets toward higher-yielding loans and in the average funding mix toward deposit balances, in addition to continued disciplined pricing strategies on both sides of the balance sheet. The second quarter net FTE interest margin did benefit by approximately seven basis points related to interest recoveries on certain commercial and residential loans.

    Provision for Credit Losses

    During the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.5 million. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $1.4 million during the first quarter of 2025, and $2.4 million during the second quarter of 2024. The increase in the provision for credit losses during the second quarter of 2025 when compared with the first quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to net growth in commercial loans HFI and changes in economic factors, partially offset by the reduction of specific reserves and the reserves for unfunded commitments in the current quarter.

    For the second quarter of 2025, the allowance for credit losses included net charge-offs of $0.3 million, or an annualized 0.02% of average loans outstanding, compared to net charge-offs of $0.9 million, or an annualized 0.07% of average loans outstanding for the first quarter of 2025, and net charge-offs of $0.6 million, or an annualized 0.05% of average loans outstanding, in the second quarter of 2024.

    The Company’s allowance for credit losses as a percentage of period-end loans HFI was 1.09% at June 30, 2025, compared to 1.07% at March 31, 2025 and 1.08% at June 30, 2024.

    Total non-interest income was $10.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to non-interest income of $16.5 million in the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in non-interest income of $5.6 million is due to the sale of the Company’s mortgage warehouse business to an unrelated third party in the first quarter of 2025, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $7.0 million that did not recur in the current period. Interchange fees and gain on sale of mortgage loans benefited from normal seasonality, while other categories remained relatively unchanged when compared with the prior period.

    Total non-interest expense was $39.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared with $39.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. The increase in non-interest expense during the second quarter of 2025 when compared with the prior period was primarily driven by a $0.5 million increase in loan expense. The increase was partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in net occupancy expenses. Additionally, the Company incurred $0.3 million of direct expenses related to the sale of the mortgage warehouse business in the prior period that did not recur in the current period.   

    Income Taxes

    Horizon recorded a net tax expense of $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing an effective tax rate of 15.4%, which is consistent with the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

    Balance Sheet Highlights

    Total assets increased by $23.4 million, or 0.3%, to $7.7 billion as of June 30, 2025, from $7.6 billion as of March 31, 2025. The increase in total assets is primarily due to increases in loans HFI and non-interest earning cash, partially offset by a decrease in interest earning cash and investment securities. Total investment securities decreased by $24.2 million, or 1.2%, to $2.1 billion as of June 30, 2025. Total loans were $5.0 billion at June 30, 2025, an increase of $75.5 million from March 31, 2025 balances, due to organic commercial loan growth net of continued runoff in the indirect consumer portfolio.

    Total deposits decreased by $66.0 million, or 1.1%, to $5.7 billion as of June 30, 2025 when compared to balances as of March 31, 2025. The decrease was partially related to a decline in time deposits of $51.9 million, or 4.2% and, to a lesser extent, a modest decrease in savings and money market deposits of $7.0 million, or 0.4%. Non-interest bearing deposit balances remained relatively unchanged in the current period. Total borrowings increased by $68.1 million during the quarter, to $880.3 million as of June 30, 2025. Balances subject to repurchase agreements increased by $7.2 million, to $95.1 million.

    Capital

    The following table presents the consolidated regulatory capital ratios of the Company for the previous three quarters, and the Company’s preliminary estimate of its consolidated regulatory capital ratios for the quarter ended June 30, 2025:

    For the Quarter Ended June 30,   March 31,   December 31,   September 30,
      2025*   2025   2024   2024
    Consolidated Capital Ratios              
    Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)   14.48 %     14.26 %     13.91 %     13.45 %
    Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets)   12.52       12.33       12.00       11.63  
    Common equity tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets)   11.52       11.32       11.00       10.68  
    Tier 1 capital (to average assets)   9.59       9.25       8.88       9.02  
    *Preliminary estimate – may be subject to change    
         

    As of June 30, 2025, the ratio of total stockholders’ equity to total assets is 10.34%. Book value per common share was $18.06, increasing $0.34 during the second quarter of 2025.

    Tangible common equity3 totaled $627.1 million at June 30, 2025, and the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets1 was 8.37% at June 30, 2025, up from 8.19% at March 31, 2025. Tangible book value, which excludes intangible assets from total equity, per common share1 was $14.32, increasing $0.36 during the second quarter of 2025 behind the growth in retained earnings.

    Credit Quality

    As of June 30, 2025, total non-accrual loans decreased by $4.5 million, or 15.7%, from March 31, 2025, to 0.49% of total loans HFI. Total non-performing assets decreased $3.9 million, or 12.4%, to $27.5 million, compared to $31.4 million as of March 31, 2025. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets decreased to 0.36% compared to 0.41% as of March 31, 2025.

    As of June 30, 2025, net charge-offs decreased by $0.6 million to $0.3 million, compared to $0.9 million as of March 31, 2025 and remain just 0.02% annualized of average loans.

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Certain information set forth in this press release refers to financial measures determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, we have included non-GAAP financial measures relating to net income, diluted earnings per share, pre-tax, pre-provision net income, net interest margin, tangible stockholders’ equity and tangible book value per share, efficiency ratio, the return on average assets, the return on average common equity, and return on average tangible equity. In each case, we have identified special circumstances that we consider to be non-recurring and have excluded them. Horizon believes these non-GAAP financial measures are helpful to investors and provide a greater understanding of our business and financial results without giving effect to one-time costs and non–recurring items. These measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measure. See the tables and other information below and contained elsewhere in this press release for reconciliations of the non-GAAP information identified herein and its most comparable GAAP measures.

    Forward Looking Statements

    This press release may contain forward–looking statements regarding the financial performance, business prospects, growth and operating strategies of Horizon Bancorp, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “Horizon”). For these statements, Horizon claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements in this press release should be considered in conjunction with the other information available about Horizon, including the information in the filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “will” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance.

    Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially include: effects on Horizon’s business resulting from new U.S. domestic or foreign governmental trade measures, including but not limited to tariffs, import and export controls, foreign exchange intervention accomplished to offset the effects of trade policy or in response to currency volatility, and other restrictions on free trade; uncertain conditions within the domestic and international macroeconomic environment, including trade policy, monetary and fiscal policy, and conditions in the investment, credit, interest rate, and derivatives markets, and their impact on Horizon and its customers; current financial conditions within the banking industry; changes in the level and volatility of interest rates, changes in spreads on earning assets and changes in interest bearing liabilities; increased interest rate sensitivity; the aggregate effects of elevated inflation levels in recent years; loss of key Horizon personnel; increases in disintermediation; potential loss of fee income, including interchange fees, as new and emerging alternative payment platforms take a greater market share of the payment systems; estimates of fair value of certain of Horizon’s assets and liabilities; changes in prepayment speeds, loan originations, credit losses, market values, collateral securing loans and other assets; changes in sources of liquidity; legislative and regulatory actions and reforms; changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be adopted and required by regulatory agencies; litigation, regulatory enforcement, and legal compliance risk and costs; rapid technological developments and changes; cyber terrorism and data security breaches; the rising costs of cybersecurity; the ability of the U.S. federal government to manage federal debt limits; climate change and social justice initiatives; the inability to realize cost savings or revenues or to effectively implement integration plans and other consequences associated with mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; acts of terrorism, war and global conflicts, such as the Russia and Ukraine conflict and the Israel and Hamas conflict; and supply chain disruptions and delays. These and additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are discussed in Horizon’s reports (such as the Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the SEC and available at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov). Undue reliance should not be placed on the forward–looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Horizon does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions that may be made to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the events or circumstances after the date on which the forward–looking statement is made, or reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by law.

    (1) Securities balances represent daily average balances for the fair value of securities. The average rate is calculated based on the daily average balance for the amortized cost of securities.
    (2) Includes fees on loans held for sale and held for investment. The inclusion of loan fees does not have a material effect on the average interest rate.
    (3) Non-accruing loans for the purpose of the computation above are included in the daily average loan amounts outstanding. Loan totals are shown net of unearned income and deferred loan fees.
    (4) Management believes fully taxable equivalent, or FTE, interest income is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance as a comparison of the returns between a tax-free investment and a taxable alternative. The Company adjusts interest income and average rates for tax-exempt loans and securities to an FTE basis utilizing a 21% tax rate.
    (5) Non-GAAP financial metric. See non-GAAP reconciliation included herein for the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
    (6) Includes dividend income on Federal Home Loan Bank stock

    Cotton, Colleagues Introduce Legislation to Combat Chinese Drone Market Dominance

    Washington, DC — Senators Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas), Chris Coons (D-Delaware), and John Cornyn (R-Texas) today introduced the Leading Exports of Aerial Drones Act, or LEAD Act, legislation that would make it easier for American companies to sell unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to American allies and partners.

    “The current restrictions on UAS sales to allies and partners are outdated and put American companies at a disadvantage, all while ceding the market to Communist China. This bill will spur American business and innovation while decreasing global dependence on Chinese military technology,” said Senator Cotton.

    “Drones aren’t just the future of warfare—as we’re seeing in Ukraine, they’re its present, too. Against the backdrop of increasing alignment between Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea, we must ensure that the United States and our allies and partner have the weapons systems and munitions we need to defend ourselves. This bill is a first step towards the objective of greater military production, integration, and deterrence for the United States and our allies in an increasingly dangerous world,” said Senator Coons.

    “This commonsense legislation would cut red tape to make drone technology more accessible and foster greater strategic defense cooperation with our allies, and I’m glad to support it,” said Senator Cornyn.

    Bill text is here.

    The LEAD Act would:

    • Direct changes to the Arms Control Act, the United States Munitions List, and the Missile Technology Control Regime to require UAS be treated as manned aircraft and separately from missile technology for the purposes of defense transfers.

    NANNING, July 23 (Xinhua) — Sri Lanka will be a special guest country partner of the 22nd China-ASEAN EXPO (CAEXPO) to be held from Sept. 17 to 21 in Nanning, capital of south China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the expo secretariat confirmed Wednesday.

    The event will be attended by a Sri Lankan government delegation led by senior diplomats. The exhibition will feature key Sri Lankan enterprises of national importance, including port operators and spice producers.

    The EXPO programme includes a number of events related to Sri Lanka, including a national image exhibition, a product display and a promotional presentation of the country.

    The Special Invited Partner Country mechanism, first launched at the 11th CAEXPO, invites participants of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership or Belt and Road Initiative, excluding China and ASEAN countries. This makes the expo a platform to promote exchanges between China, ASEAN and non-regional countries, creating more commercial opportunities. Sri Lanka was previously granted the Special Partner status at the 13th CAEXPO.

    Joint projects between China and Sri Lanka currently cover infrastructure, energy, port development and other sectors, helping to strengthen bilateral cooperation and ties in areas such as economics and culture. –0–

    BEIJING, July 23 (Xinhua) — China has always firmly supported the work of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said Wednesday.

    As the diplomat noted at a regular press briefing, China took note that UNESCO and many countries expressed regret over the US decision to withdraw from the organization again. “This is the third time the United States has withdrawn from UNESCO and has not paid its membership dues for a long time. This is not what a responsible country should do,” the official said.

    According to Guo Jiakun, UNESCO’s goal is to promote international cooperation in education, science and culture, promote mutual understanding and integration of civilizations, safeguard world peace and achieve common development. China has always firmly supported UNESCO’s activities, the diplomat stressed.

    In light of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the UN, China calls on all countries to reaffirm their commitment to multilateralism and, through concrete actions, uphold the international system with the UN at the center, the international order based on international law, and the basic norms of international relations based on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, Guo Jiakun concluded. –0–

    BEIJING, July 23 (Xinhua) — A team from China’s Tsinghua University has won first place in the AdultSize category of the Humanoid League of the RoboCup World Robot Football Championship, marking the first time China has won the top prize at the competition.

    RoboCup, which has been held since 1997, is one of the most prestigious global robotics competitions. This year, the championship was held in Brazil, with more than 20 teams from 12 countries taking part, including China, the United States, Germany, the Republic of Korea and France.

    The Tsinghua team, with its Chinese-developed Booster T1 robots, dominated the competition, winning convincingly against several opponents, including the University of Texas. In the all-Chinese final, Tsinghua University defeated China Agricultural University, giving the Chinese teams first and second place, a triumph for them.

    As one of the executives at Booster Robotics, the company that developed the T1 robots, noted, participating in the competition requires not only a lightweight, maneuverable, and impact-resistant design, but also complex functions such as real-time environmental perception, cognitive decision-making, advanced motion control, and interaction between multiple intelligent agents. This means that the championship is a comprehensive test of the full range of robot capabilities.

    Industry analysts said the outstanding performance of Chinese robots at the international championship once again demonstrated China’s strong potential in the development and practical application of robotics. –0–

    • School in Ukrainian city of Chernivtsi in southwestern Ukraine reopens after €930,000 renovation funded by EIB
    • Upgrades to Gymnasium No. 20 improve conditions for more than 400 students and teachers
    • Project covered by EIB’s €200 million Ukraine Early Recovery Programme

    A school in the southwestern Ukrainian city of Chernivtsi reopened today after major upgrades funded by the European Investment Bank (EIB). Gymnasium No. 20 – a primary and middle school – underwent a €930,000 renovation that improved conditions for more than 400 students and teachers.

    Among the students, who range in age from six to 15, are children who have been displaced by Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.   

    The works included equipping the school building with full thermal insulation, a new roof, energy‑efficient windows and doors and a heating system that better regulates indoor temperatures and reduces energy costs. In addition, a new ramp and repaired entrances facilitated access to the premises, particularly for more than 10 children with disabilities.

    “The EIB plays a key role in helping Ukrainian municipalities restore essential social infrastructure,” said EIB Vice-President Teresa Czerwińska, who oversees the bank’s operations in Ukraine. “The renovated school in Chernivtsi is a clear example of how our support brings safer and more inclusive spaces for children to learn and thrive, even in challenging times.”

    The upgrades to Gymnasium No. 20 were completed in six months under a €200 million EIB initiative called the Ukraine Early Recovery Programme. The programme is one of three joint European Union‑EIB recovery initiatives carried out with the Ukrainian Ministry for Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine, the Ministry of Finance and local authorities in participating cities, with technical support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

    “Reopening this school is a clear sign that recovery is happening on the ground,” said Deputy Prime Minister for Restoration of Ukraine and Minister for Communities and Territories Development of Ukraine Oleksii Kuleba. “Together with our European partners, we are creating safer, more resilient communities for Ukrainians.”

    Chernivtsi Mayor Roman Klichuk echoed the point: “Thanks to our European partners, more than 400 children and staff now have a warm, safe and modern school that meets their needs.”

    In the Chernivtsi region, or oblast, the EIB is also funding two projects to repair administrative service centres and four projects to upgrade heating, water supply and sewage systems. These initiatives, as was the case with the renovation of Gymnasium No. 20, are being carried out in cooperation with the Chernivtsi Regional Military Administration and the Chernivtsi City Council.

    “Every renovated school – like the one in Chernivtsi – is a building block in Ukraine’s recovery,” said Stefan Schleuning, Head of Cooperation at the EU Delegation to Ukraine. “Together with the EIB, we are working hand in hand with communities across the country to help rebuild a stronger Ukraine.”

    “More renovations to facilities will follow to strengthen the region’s social infrastructure,” said Ruslan Zaparaniuk, head of the Chernivtsi Regional Military Administration.

    “Through our partnership with the EIB and local authorities, UNDP is helping Ukraine rebuild more strongly by ensuring recovery investments enhance community resilience and establish sustainable foundations for long-term development,” said UNDP Resident Representative in Ukraine Auke Lootsma. “Projects such as this school renovation in Chernivtsi embody this approach.”

    Background information

    The EIB in Ukraine 

    Present in Ukraine since 2007, the EIB has stepped up its financial support for the country’s resilience and modernisation since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Since then, the EIB has provided €3.6 billion in financing, with almost two-thirds already disbursed. Through its EU for Ukraine (EU4U) Initiative, coupled with its key role in implementing a dedicated window under Pillar 2 of the Ukraine Facility, the EIB is strongly committed to stepping up and accelerating its activities in line with the mandate given by EU leaders and in close cooperation with the European Commission, the European Parliament, Member States and international partners. 

    EIB recovery programmes in Ukraine

    The reconstruction of the gymnasium in Chernivtsi was carried out under the Ukraine Early Recovery Programme, one of three recovery initiatives supported by the European Investment Bank (EIB). As of July 2025, the EIB has provided €740 million through these programmes to support Ukraine’s recovery.  The funding helps the government to restore essential services in communities across the country – including schools, kindergartens, hospitals, housing, heating and water systems. These EIB-backed programmes are further supported by €15 million in EU grants to facilitate implementation. The Ministry for Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine, in cooperation with the Ministry of Finance, coordinates and oversees programme implementation, while local authorities and self-governments are responsible for managing recovery sub-projects. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Ukraine provides technical assistance to local communities, supporting project implementation and ensuring independent monitoring for transparency and accountability. More information about the programmes is available here.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Lawler Introduces Legislation Modernizing Post-Assad Syria Sanctions Policy

    Source: US Congressman Mike Lawler (R, NY-17)

    Washington, D.C. – 7/17/25… Today, Congressman Mike Lawler (NY-17), Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Middle East and North Africa and House Financial Services Committee member, introduced the Syria Sanctions Accountability Act, legislation to modernize U.S. sanctions policy for a post-Assad Syria.

    “This bill modernizes the existing sanctions regime on Syria, requires assessments on existing sanctions relief provisions, and sets out goals for the Syrian government to meet anti-money laundering and anti-corruption standards. As the Trump Administration is already reviewing sanctions policy, we must ensure they have the tools to do so that reflect the current security environment,” said Chairman Lawler. 

    The Syria Sanctions Accountability Act:

    • Directs the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network to provide a briefing to Congress on the exceptive relief for the Commercial Bank of Syria.
    • Instructs U.S. representatives to the IMF and World Bank to support regular economic monitoring in Syria, processes to improve financial connectivity in Syria, and priorities related to anti-money laundering, weapons non-proliferation, and anti-corruption policies in Syria.
    • Requires a formal assessment from the Export-Import Bank on the appropriateness of current country limitations concerning Syria.
    • Updates the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act by updating conditions to lift sanctions. This includes requiring the Syrian government to take verifiable steps to combat illicit proliferation of Captagon, ensuring the Syrian government is not engaged in the targeting or extrajudicial detention of religious minorities, and removing references to Russia and Iran that were originally placed in the law due to Assad’s relationship with these adversarial regimes.

    “The al-Sharaa Administration certainly has a lot of work to do to reintegrate Syria with the U.S. and our allies. While this job should be difficult given the circumstances, it shouldn’t be impossible,” concluded Chairman Lawler. 

    Congressman Lawler is one of the most bipartisan members of Congress and represents New York’s 17th Congressional District, which is just north of New York City and contains all or parts of Rockland, Putnam, Dutchess, and Westchester Counties. He was rated the most effective freshman lawmaker in the 118th Congress, 8th overall, surpassing dozens of committee chairs.

    During his remarks, Dr. Al Ansari emphasized that the region is facing unprecedented challenges resulting from irresponsible behavior that has extended beyond the borders of GCC states for the first time. This requires a unified stance and effective cooperation to protect the region’s security.

    He indicated that the only way to address these challenges is to adhere to international law as a constant reference, noting that the GCC states are working in an integrated manner to ensure regional stability and support international efforts to achieve security in the region.

    The Advisor to the Prime Minister and Official Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs highlighted the role played by the State of Qatar in mediation and conflict resolution around the world, pointing in this regard to the successes of Qatari diplomacy in recent days on a number of international issues. Qatar succeeded in reuniting a new batch of Ukrainian and Russian children with their families, and facilitating the return of a second group of Afghan citizens from Germany to their country, in addition to Qatar’s communication with all parties to reach a broader and more comprehensive nuclear agreement between Iran and the United States of America.

    Regarding the Palestinian cause, Dr. Al Ansari stressed the importance of supporting the legitimate rights of the fraternal Palestinian people as a fundamental pillar of any lasting peace in the region.

    WASHINGTON – Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Vice Chairman Mark R. Warner (D-VA) issued the following statement on DNI Gabbard’s release of a partisan report prepared by Republicans on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence regarding Russia’s intervention in the 2016 presidential election:

    “It seems as though the Trump administration is willing to declassify anything and everything except the Epstein files. The desperate and irresponsible release of the partisan House intelligence report puts at risk some of the most sensitive sources and methods our Intelligence Community uses to spy on Russia and keep Americans safe. And in doing so, Director Gabbard is sending a chilling message to our allies and assets around the world: the United States can no longer be trusted to protect the intelligence you share with us.

    “Let’s be clear: the bipartisan, unanimous finding of the Senate Intelligence Committee, after years of painstaking investigation, more than 200 witness interviews, and millions of documents, was that Russia launched a large-scale influence campaign in the 2016 election in order to help then-candidate Donald Trump. Nothing in this partisan, previously scuttled document changes that. Releasing this so-called report is just another reckless act by a Director of National Intelligence so desperate to please Donald Trump that she is willing to risk classified sources, betray our allies, and politicize the very intelligence she has been entrusted to protect.

    “The American people are right to continue asking: What are they trying to hide?”

    BEIJING, July 23 (Xinhua) — Investing in China for the future with mutual benefits has become a broad consensus among global investors, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said Wednesday.

    Guo Jiakun pointed out that the Chinese side invites companies from all countries to participate in Chinese-style modernization, achieving more significant results and greater progress in the process of integration into high-quality development.

    A recent report released by the US-China Business Council shows that 82 percent of US companies in China will post a profit in 2024. While many companies said their biggest concerns were uncertainty in Sino-US relations and tariffs, the Chinese market remains vital to them.

    Commenting on this information, Guo Jiakun said that as of March 2025, 1.24 million foreign-invested companies had been established in China, with a total investment of nearly US$3 trillion.

    “By promoting China’s reform and opening up, these companies will enjoy broad growth opportunities and significant returns on investment,” the diplomat said, adding that statistics show that the number of newly established foreign-invested enterprises in China has seen a double-digit increase in the first half of 2025.

    Guo Jiakun noted that the just-concluded 3rd China International Supply Chain Expo saw the number of participating countries and regions increase to 75, while the first such event saw only 55 countries and regions.

    The number of American participants increased by 15 percent compared to the previous exhibition, which allowed the United States to maintain its leadership among foreign exhibitors. Among the foreign companies represented, more than 65 percent are included in the Fortune Global 500 list or are industry leaders.

    “Foreign-invested enterprises are expressing their confidence in China’s economic prospects through their concrete actions,” Guo Jiakun emphasized.

    The diplomat added that the Chinese government recently introduced new measures to encourage foreign investment, demonstrating sincerity and determination in promoting high-level opening-up. –0–
