MIL-OSI Europe: EIB Group and European Commission simplify application of State Aid rules to support Europe’s clean industry and hold roundtable with business leaders
Source: European Investment Bank

EIB

The European Investment Bank Group and the European Commission agreed to simplify State aid rules in relation to EIB Group financing, in a step to further facilitate support for Europe’s industry and economic competitiveness.

The agreement confirms that financing by the EIB Group from its own resources falls outside the scope of EU State aid rules. The accord also eases conditions for joint investments by Member States and the EIB Group and speeds up the deployment of the InvestEU programme.

The agreement takes place within the broader European Union framework to prevent governmental support for companies from distorting markets. The accord reinforces the EIB Group’s ability to channel investments that advance EU policy goals, such as the Clean Industrial Deal, while safeguarding the European single market.

The Clean Industrial Deal is the Commission’s plan to strengthen the competitiveness and resilience of European industry by accelerating decarbonisation and securing the future of manufacturing in Europe. As the financial arm of the EU, the EIB Group plays a key role in mobilising private investment advancing climate action and industrial competitiveness in Europe.

Clean Industrial Deal State Aid Framework

On 25 June 2025, the Commission adopted a new state-aid framework supporting the Clean Industrial Deal (CISAF) to enable Member States to push forward the development of clean energy, industrial decarbonisation and clean technology.

The EIB Group-Commission accord on State aid rules has three main elements:
- The agreement ensures that financing provided by the EIB Group from its own resources falls outside the scope of state-aid rules along with all its consequences. This is particularly relevant for Important Projects of Common European Interest (IPCEIs), which are critical to Europe’s strategic autonomy in areas like clean technologies and advanced manufacturing. Under the agreement, EIB Group financing will not count toward State aid thresholds for IPCEIs, making it easier to combine funding sources and scale up ambition.
- The accord facilitates co-investments by Member States and the EIB Group. When the EIB Group participates in a project that also receives support from a Member State, the required level of private-sector participation – when relevant for state-aid purposes – will be reduced by half if accompanied by an equivalent amount from the EIB Group. This principle is already reflected in CISAF and highlights the EIB Group’s role as a market reference and a catalyst for additional investment. It will facilitate equity co-investment programs with Member States, including in early-stage funds, funds managed by first-time investment teams and funds in European regions with less a developed venture capital ecosystem.
- The agreement facilitates and accelerates the deployment of the InvestEU programme, for which the EIB Group has already mobilised billions of euros in investments for innovation, sustainability, competitiveness, and social inclusion. This paves the way for a new equity co-investment product under InvestEU and sets the stage for a review of the guarantee agreement to streamline State aid provisions in line with evolving policy priorities.
Cleantech

The EIB Group boosts the Clean Industrial Deal and strengthens Europe’s leadership in technology through TechEU, the EU’s largest financing programme to date in support of innovation, with the goal to attract talent, capital and investment in Europe. These actions include the reinforcement of cross guarantees for wind energy production and three new instruments to strengthen Europe’s competitiveness:
- A €1.5 billion package to provide counter-guarantees through partner banks to grid component manufacturers to ensure sustainable supply, giving companies greater certainty to ramp up production of electricity networks across Europe. This will facilitate the integration of renewable energy into the grid and the delivery of affordable power to EU businesses and households.
- To help ensure predictable and affordable energy costs for businesses and accelerate investments in green energy, the EIB and Commission are launching a €500 million pilot programme to support the take-up of more corporate power purchase agreements (PPAs). The EIB will counter-guarantee, through partner banks, part of the PPAs undertaken by mid-sized as well as larger energy-intensive companies for the long-term purchase of electricity generation from clean sources.
- To provide liquidity and working capital for highly innovative small and medium-sized enterprises active in developing green technologies, the EIB and Commission are launching a €250 million CleantechEU guarantee scheme.
- A €1.5 billion top-up to a successful EIB programme supporting European wind turbine and component manufacturers.
President Nadia Calviño and Commission Executive Vice-President Teresa Ribera also hosted today a roundtable on Investing in Europe’s Clean Future in Brussels with key financial and industrial stakeholders on mobilising private investments for a resilient, decarbonised European industry.

Statements from the roundtable are available on EBS.

MIL-OSI Russia: Tatyana Golikova: The pilot project on career support covered about 524 thousand students

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

“The goal of the national project “Personnel” is to reduce the personnel shortage by creating mechanisms and tools that will allow additional involvement of the population in employment, ensure professional mobility, and correctly navigate not only the current but also the prospective demand of employers for personnel. And here our main efforts are aimed at working with internal reserves, primarily young people. Today, on the eve of Youth Day, when school graduates and students have passed exams and defended their diplomas, it is especially important to help the children decide on their future work, ensure a seamless transition from education to employment,” said Tatyana Golikova.

The Deputy Prime Minister focused on the key features of the national project’s implementation.

Within the framework of the federal project “Labor Market Management”, annual forecasting of personnel needs is carried out. Since this year, for the first time, a forecast is made for a 7-year period, so that the results of the forecast cover the entire cycle of training qualified specialists.

Over 300,000 companies, employing around 22 million workers, have already taken part in the all-Russian employer survey. Starting next year, all processes related to forecast preparation will be transferred to the Work of Russia portal, which will simplify data verification and processing.

As part of the national project “Personnel”, the modernization of the employment service continues.

“By the end of this year, 50% of employment centers in Russia will have acquired a new look. In the updated centers, the speed of personnel selection based on employers’ requests has increased by 11.5%. The time to employment has decreased by 39%, the number of services for employers has increased by 20%, and for job seekers by 70%,” said Tatyana Golikova.

The federal project “Education for the Labor Market” continues to develop completely new tools. The first of them was presented on June 15 – these are national rankings of college and university graduate employment. In order for the comparison to be as relevant as possible, all educational organizations are divided into areas. It is important that the ranking results are useful not only for the education sector and applicants, but also taken into account by regions and employers.

“As part of the national project “Personnel” to improve the relationship between education and career, we launched a pilot project to support students. This year, 11 regions are in the pilot. Here, the personnel centers “Work of Russia” are building a single career development plan – from the 8th grade to employment in the company. The project has already covered 350 thousand schoolchildren, 100 thousand college students and 74 thousand university students. More than a thousand organizations have joined the pilot. The project ends at the end of June. We will see the first results of supporting our graduates,” the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

An important element in the link between education and the labour market is targeted training.

As Tatyana Golikova noted, the main demand is for training in higher education programs – about 94 thousand educational places. In addition, since this year, through the portal “Work of Russia”, employers have been able to submit applications for quotas for targeted training for the 2026/27 academic year. This service is in demand, since it allows you to avoid double competition for an educational place and clearly organize work on attracting applicants to the needs of the enterprise. More than 70 thousand companies used it, submitting applications for 132 thousand educational places.

Along with large systemic projects, the implementation of measures to quickly respond to the situation on the labor market continues within the framework of the federal project “Active Measures to Promote Employment.”

“This year, free retraining programs are available for 360 professions. Taking into account the different levels of initial training of applicants, more than 4 thousand training programs have been created for these programs. More than 56 thousand applications for training have already been submitted. Training of employees of defense industry enterprises continues. 198 enterprises have already joined the project, planning to train more than 12 thousand employees. More than 2 thousand people have already undergone retraining,” said Tatyana Golikova.

The “Best in Profession” competition has also been reformatted within the framework of the national project. Almost 230 regional stages of the competition are currently planned.

“The fair’s events for participants are held simultaneously at 1.9 thousand sites – in employment centers, universities and colleges, at enterprises, in shopping centers, popular city spaces. Today I wish all employers and job seekers to find each other. Good luck!” – Tatyana Golikova noted in conclusion.

The session also featured speeches by the President of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs Alexander Shokhin, Chairman of the Federation of Independent Trade Unions Sergei Chernogaev, Acting General Director of the All-Russian Research Institute of Labor of the Ministry of Labor Vladimir Smirnov, Head of the All-Russian Public Opinion Research Center, Chairman of the Public Council under the Ministry of Labor Konstantin Abramov, Director for Development of Strategic Projects at PJSC Rostelecom Vladimir Tatarintsev, and Vice President for Human Resources at AFK Sistema Svetlana Matveeva.

MIL-OSI Canada: Minister Tim Hodgson Speech to the Toronto Region Board of Trade June 25, 2025

Source: Government of Canada News

Good morning,

It’s great to be speaking to all you right here, in the heart of Toronto. This is where I worked for the last 15 years, and I’m thrilled to see so many familiar faces in the crowd.

I want to express my sincere thanks to Giles, Roselle, Leslie, Dominic and the Toronto Region Board of Trade for putting on this great event.

The GTA is one of the key engines of the Canadian economy. It will play an important part of this government’s Build Canada agenda. From finance to advanced manufacturing to clean tech to AI to innovation and more, Toronto and Ontario are not just regional powerhouses — they are key drivers of national progress.

I have seen first-hand how the many businesses that call the GTA home are driving the growth and prosperity of this country. For example, most recently, I served as Chair of Hydro One’s board, witnessing with my own eyes the role that great, Ontario-based companies, like Hydro One, are playing in keeping Canada powered, productive and prosperous.

That is one experience that I bring to this new government — but I have been equally shaped by my background, my roots and the path that brought me here. And I wanted to start there.

My family’s relationship with this province begins with my father immigrating to Canada after World War II.

His family were tenant farmers who worked the farms owned by the “lord” in the old country. But they wanted a better life and dreamed of owning their own farm, so they scraped together enough money to get on a steamer to Canada and start over on a small farm, just outside of Peterborough. A few years later, driven to experience all this country had to offer, my father joined the Royal Canadian Air Force. I came shortly thereafter and grew up as an Air Force brat, moving every year or two to bases across Canada.

This brought me everywhere, from a small fishing village of 200 people at the southern tip of Nova Scotia, to a tiny logging camp at the northern tip of Vancouver Island and many points in between, including in Ontario. Living in those small towns shaped my understanding of the value of hard work, the importance of good jobs in the trades and the rich cultural diversity that defines our country’s regions.

Following in my father’s footsteps, when I was 17 I joined the Canadian Armed Forces. The Armed Forces are where I learned what service means — and what it feels like to fight for something bigger than oneself.

It was a similar instinct to serve — years later — that brought me to the Bank of Canada under then-Governor Mark Carney, as we were rebuilding the Canadian economy at the end of the great financial crisis. And it was that instinct that led me to pick up the phone again earlier this year, when Mr. Carney suggested there was another opportunity to serve this great country, in this pivotal moment.

In between my time in the Armed Forces and this spring, however, I spent most of my professional life working in the private sector, including right here in Toronto. In those roles, I learned a lot about the energy and resource industries that are — by many metrics — the most significant economic engines of this country.

I helped finance potash mines and OSB mills. I did initial public offerings for utilities and uranium companies. I also worked on pipelines like the Alliance Pipeline that brings Canadian gas to the Chicago market.

Those experiences have shaped me. And they’ve taught me this: Leadership is not about talk. It’s about action when it matters most. It’s about getting things done and doing them right. It’s about building for the next generation — or as Indigenous Peoples teach us, the next seven generations — and being proud of what we are handing them.

The Prime Minister likes to say that we are standing at a hinge moment in Canada’s history. I think that is undeniably true. The post WWII-Bretton Woods world order is now over. Global supply chains are being torn apart and need to be rebuilt. Our climate is changing, and we need to retool our economy to reflect that reality.

On top of all that, we find ourselves in the middle of the most devastating trade war of our lifetimes. A trade war we did not ask for, but a trade war we must win.

Ultimately, we are facing a new world order defined by one thing, above all else: instability.

But here’s the thing Canadians need to know: this moment is creating opportunities that we can seize.

As you saw this week, we are seizing the chance to work with our European allies on a new EU-Canada Strategic Partnership of the Future, which will focus on trade and economic security, the digital transition and the fight against climate change and environmental degradation and includes a Security and Defence Partnership, which is an intentional first step toward Canada’s participation in Security Action for Europe (SAFE), an instrument of the ReArm Europe Plan/Readiness 2030.

Importantly, participation in this initiative will create significant defence procurement and industrial opportunities for Canada — including right here in Ontario.

There’s a saying that applies to this moment: a crisis is a terrible thing to waste. And waste it, we will not. And I know we can do it, because we have done it before. But it will take more than just resolve. It will take speed, ambition and, most importantly, unity.

During and after the Second World War — perhaps the last time we faced such a transformational upheaval of the world order — Canadians did not hesitate. We united and did great things. We mobilized our workforce and industrial base with staggering speed. We built more than 16,000 aircraft, nearly 9,000 ships and over 800,000 military trucks.

Canada — a country just shy of 12 million people at the time — raised an Armed Forces of 1.1 million men and women, who fought bravely for our way of life.

When the war was over, the Canadian government built homes for the veterans who needed them. We retooled our economy and learned to thrive in a new world order. Through hard work, grit and smarts, we transformed our country.

That transformation built a middle class. It built an identity. It built a sense of collective confidence that would define our postwar decades — and continues to make us proud to stand under the maple leaf.

As one wartime poster proclaimed: “Every Canadian must fight.” It showed a soldier and a factory worker standing side by side.

Now, we must stand side by side once again, from coast to coast to coast, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, industries, small businesses and entrepreneurs. We need that same spirit today. And we can find it — in our communities, in our businesses, in our labour movement, in our innovators and in every region of this country that is hungry to contribute.

Your government is working hard to lay the foundation for just that.

Last week, The House of Commons passed the One Canadian Economy Act — what I would say is a nation-defining piece of legislation.

The Act is about building faster, moving people and goods more freely and unlocking the potential of Canadian workers, communities and resources in every part of this country. It creates the conditions to get more projects off the ground — projects that benefit our national interest and bubble up from Indigenous Peoples, provinces, territories and the private sector.

We know that if we want to build faster, we can’t be duplicating regulatory efforts, delaying decisions or creating bottlenecks between jurisdictions. We must act like a single country — not a patchwork.

That’s why this legislation creates a Major Projects Office that will coordinate and expedite reviews — reviews focused on how the project will be built as opposed to whether it will be built. For proponents, they will now have just one point of contact to make sure things stay on track.

Crucially, an Indigenous Advisory Council will be an integral component of this Office. The Council, along with consultation with Indigenous Peoples and rigorous environmental review, will inform a single set of binding federal conditions for the project. These conditions will include mitigation measures to protect the environment and to respect the rights of Indigenous Peoples.

To ensure consultation is done right, the federal government is also investing $40 million for capacity building to strengthen Indigenous participation in the assessment and consultation process.

Moreover, to continue to put Indigenous Peoples at the centre of this nation-building initiative, the first thing we will do to launch the implementation of this legislation is full-day summits with First Nations, Inuit and Métis rights holders, leadership and experts. The first summit will be on July 17, where the Prime Minister will meet with First Nations rights holders. The goal here is to create certainty that catalyzes investment.

As someone who has spent most of my career allocating capital, I believe it is important that Canadians understand that to achieve the certainty that leads to investment and prosperity we must reduce inefficiency, harmonize standards and improve transparency.

When businesses see inconsistent rules, unclear timelines or duplicative review processes, they hesitate to invest. And when they hesitate, projects stall, costs climb and opportunities vanish. But when our federal, provincial and territorial governments send clear signals — that we are serious, coordinated and committed to delivery — investment follows.

Certainty invites boldness. It turns ambition into action. It gives industry, investors and trading partners confidence that Canadian projects will get built and Canadian goods will get to market. It creates the prosperity we need to pay for our way of life.

Let me say that again: it creates the prosperity we need to pay for our way of life.

This Act puts us back on that path. And crucially, we are going to do this responsibly — with transparency, partnership, the environment, labour standards and economic reconciliation at the heart of our efforts.

The Act also tackles a long-standing issue: internal trade barriers. For decades, it has been easier to export a product abroad than to ship it between provinces. Frankly, that is just illogical and inefficient. These barriers have cost Canadians as much as $200 billion in lost opportunities every year — equivalent to around $50,000 for every Canadian.

As the Prime Minister likes to say, we can give ourselves more than anyone can take away.

This Act lays the groundwork for that ideal, through greater labour mobility, credential recognition and open trade across provinces and by reframing the conversation so we can build things in this country again.

This Act allows us to reset that narrative about building in Canada — so we can go from delay to delivery.

So, what does delivery look like? It begins with a vision: to build Canada into a conventional and clean energy and natural resources superpower.

I want to dive into that a bit deeper with you all today. Because, in my mind, that encompasses two things: energy security and energy economics.

Energy security means sovereignty — over our destiny, our industries, our wallets and our climate. It means being able to heat our homes in January, power our farms in July and run our factories all year long, without worry about what is happening outside of our borders.

It means using the best, cleanest products: the ones produced right here in Canada.

It means developing our unparallelled critical minerals wealth and helping the world transition to a cleaner climate without relying on countries that we cannot trust.

We will get that security and sovereignty by ensuring we have the ports, roads, railways and energy infrastructure in place to sell our products to allies who share our values, not just our borders.

Energy economics means competitiveness — using our natural advantages to drive investment, grow exports and raise wages.

Together, our products — our resources — can make us both safer and wealthier.

And here’s the thing: this is not just about GDP. It’s about building the kind of Canada where a rising tide lifts all boats.

I’d like to quote something Premier Wab Kinew said at the First Minister’s Meeting earlier this month. He said: “This is a generational opportunity for Canadians — but also for some of the poorest communities in our country. If we can put the road, transmission and pipe infrastructure in place to build out those opportunities, this country won’t just be better off in terms of GDP growth — we’ll be better off in making sure every Canadian kid can reach their full potential.”

A kid in the north or rural Canada needs the same opportunities as a kid in our biggest cities. That’s what becoming an energy superpower is really about.

This is important to me because I have watched it happen. I went to a vocational high school in Winnipeg, and many of my classmates didn’t go to university. One of my best friends spent 25 years on the rigs. His job bought him a home. It financed a good life. That’s how it should be. And we should respect the hardworking Canadians who do these important jobs.

During the election, I went door to door in my riding, about 45 minutes north of here. I heard the same thing from new Canadians, over and over: we came here to build a better life. Just like my family did, 80 years ago.

They know, like we do in this room, that because of the opportunity Canada offers — through jobs in sectors like energy, mining and forestry — it’s the best country in the world.

And that’s what we need to protect. A Canada where hard work still pays off. Where good jobs — with or without a degree — are available for future generations.

Now, when it comes to delivering on significant, ambitious energy projects, Ontario certainly knows a thing or two. That’s why this province has been a word-class nuclear leader for over half a century.

The story of nuclear energy in Ontario is emblematic of just how Canada can do great things.

In the late 1950s and 60s, Canadians developed the first CANDU reactor. Two decades later, the first commercial CANDUs came online in Pickering. Since then, Ontario has become home to 16 of Canada’s 17 commercial reactors.

Today, 58 percent of Ontario’s electricity comes from nuclear. The sector employs over 89,000 Canadians, contributes 15 percent of our national electricity supply and adds $22 billion to the economy every year. We have exported our nuclear technology around the world, helping countries achieve energy security and avoiding over 30 million tonnes of pollution annually.

And our reactors do more than keep the lights on. They have made our air cleaner. They have provided a good life and livelihoods for thousands and thousands of Ontarians. And they produce a significant amount of the world’s supply of cobalt-60, a vital medical isotope used to sterilize equipment and treat cancer.

Nuclear power is one of our greatest strategic assets. It’s clean. It’s reliable. And it’s built here, by Canadian workers and engineers, using Canadian uranium and technology.

Now Ontario is poised to lead the next chapter, with small modular reactors. Ontario is already building Canada’s first grid-scale SMR at Darlington. But we’re not stopping there. Ontario is working closely with Alberta, Saskatchewan and New Brunswick — helping provinces at different stages of decarbonization build nuclear solutions that work for them.

This is Team Canada in action. Provinces learning from each other. Utilities coordinating on design. Engineers collaborating across provincial borders. It’s a model of what a confident, connected Canada can do.

Of course, it’s going to take more than one type of power — more than one solution — to power a strong, productive, retooled Canadian economy.

Canada will need to at least double our electricity generation over the next two decades to power our industries, homes and technologies. This will require efficient, integrated electricity grids. Our new government is committed to working quickly with provinces and territories on east–west and north–south transmission interties. This is part of what the Prime Minister means when he says one economy, not thirteen.

A pan-Canadian grid means more reliable, affordable sustainable power for Canadians. It means powering industries from AI to manufacturing. And it means exporting energy between provinces who want Canadian solutions.

I know many of you in this room will be involved not just with clean and conventional energy, but with mining — another area in which this province is blessed with abundance. At the G7 two weeks ago, the world saw what we already knew: Canada is positioned to lead on critical minerals — not just in mining but across the entire value chain.

We can and will extract our minerals sustainably, refine them responsibly and move them to market efficiently.

During the G7, we announced a Critical Minerals Action Plan, backed by over $70 million in Canadian investments to support innovation, research and international partnerships. This effort will drive global demand for responsibly sourced materials — a move that could directly support new mining projects right here in Ontario.

Moreover, we will launch the First and Last Mile Fund, to connect remote projects to roads, rails and grids.

Simultaneously, we are backing Indigenous and community-led mineral development with financial tools.

We do not want to just be a resource exporter. We want to be a value creator — from mine to EV battery to global supply chain. That is how we will build a stronger, sovereign economy and be masters in our own home.

Beyond critical minerals, another pillar of the resource economy in this province and across our country is forestry. So I want to take a minute to speak to that today as well.

Forestry sustains hundreds of thousands of good, Canadian jobs, supports rural and northern communities and provides one of the most sustainable building materials on earth.

We need to treat our forestry sector not as old industry but as a vital part of our clean future. That means investing in value-added wood products. It means using engineered timber to accelerate modular housing. It means ensuring Canadian wood is the first material we reach for when we are building homes, schools and public infrastructure.

We are already seeing innovation in prefab housing and modular design — made with Canadian wood, built by Canadian labour and creating Canadian solutions.

If we want to build homes faster and more sustainably, we do not have to look far: the answer is growing in our forests.

This all likely sounds ambitious — well, it is. But a key part of how we will make this successful is transforming how we think about Indigenous partnership in major projects.

Indigenous Peoples are not just participants in our economy — they are rights holders. They are the original stewards of this land. They are governments. They are builders.

If we are serious about retooling our economy, then economic reconciliation must be front and centre.

I have seen what true partnership looks like — and how successful it can be for a project and a First Nation. When I served as Chair of the Board for Hydro One, we worked closely with Indigenous communities to build electricity transmission infrastructure that delivered power, created jobs and built long-term prosperity.

Let me highlight one example. Last year, Hydro One built the Chatham to Lakeshore line under its new Indigenous Equity Partnership model. The project came in over a year ahead of schedule and 15 percent below budget.

And I want to be clear: those amazing results occurred because of the strong consultation process and the significant equity ownership achieved by First Nations. Done the right way, First Nations involvement accelerated the project — it did not slow it down.

To me, this approach stands as a model for how this country can and should build major infrastructure projects going forward.

And it’s not an isolated case — it’s an emerging norm. And it’s a norm this government is committed to accelerating.

By recognizing First Nations as key enablers — and by listening, engaging and building meaningful relationships rooted in trust and shared benefits — projects in this province and beyond can move forward on schedule, on budget and in a way that delivers real benefits to communities.

That’s why we have expanded and doubled the Indigenous Loan Guarantee Program to $10 billion.

Indigenous equity means revenue that stays in the community and can be passed down to the next generation. It means a generational transformation in how major projects get done. Because becoming an energy and resource superpower should benefit everyone.

That also means labour. Simply put, none of this gets done without workers. Without the people who pour the concrete, wire the grids, mine the metals and weld the steel. The trades built this country. And they will build the next chapter, too.

As Sean Strickland, the Executive Director of Canada’s Building Trades Unions, put it last week: “If we’re serious about building housing, energy, transportation and critical infrastructure, we need to empower workers and enable them to move across the country to get the job done.”

That’s why we’re investing in apprenticeships, training and labour mobility. That’s why we’re aligning credentials across provinces — so a red seal in Nova Scotia means the same thing in Alberta or Ontario. And that’s why we’re building strong partnerships with Canada’s unions to get the job done right.

At the end of the day, we did not ask for a trade war to be declared on us. But we are responding with purpose and finding solutions that will leave us better off in four years, and four decades.

We did not ask for climate change. But we are meeting the challenge with innovation and a mission to do what is right.

We did not ask for disrupted supply chains. But we are rebuilding them with resilience and creating jobs at home in the process.

What we have done so far by passing the One Canadian Economy Act is not the end — it is the beginning.

So let me close with a call to action.

To business leaders: it is time to bring forward your best ideas.

To Indigenous Peoples: it is time to lead with your vision and partnership.

To provinces and territories: it is time to leverage thirteen parts to build the strongest whole.

To workers and unions: it is time to double down on your skill, strength and determination.

And to everyone in this room: it is time for ambition. It is time to be a real clean and conventional energy superpower.

It is time to build. And together, we will.

Thank you.

MIL-OSI USA: Latta Highlights the Need for Federal Autonomous Vehicle Legislation

Source: United States House of Representatives – Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green Ohio)

Yesterday, Congressman Bob Latta (R-OH-5) joined the Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade Subcommittee hearing on motor vehicle safety, to discuss his commitment to advancing autonomous vehicle (AV) legislation. Congressman Latta spoke on the importance of the United States maintaining its global leadership in automotive innovation by advancing policies that support the deployment of next-generation technologies. Watch Congressman Latta’s full remarks HERE.

Even with vehicle safety standards improving over the years, traffic-related accidents have steadily been on the rise. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 39,345 people died in motor vehicle traffic accidents in 2024. In addition to improving safety on our roads, AVs have the potential to increase mobility for seniors and those who live with health challenges or disabilities.

Below is an excerpt from Congressman Latta’s remarks highlighting the need for federal AV legislation to improve safety:

“I think it’s important that we look at the number of highway deaths that we see in traffic and what was caused out there. About 94 percent of all the accidents being caused out there is because of driver error. I ride every year with the Ohio Highway Patrol, and when the troopers are out on the road, they can point out quickly people that are not paying attention. We want to make sure that we get this legislation passed…

“But one of the things I’ve said, it’s so important when we look at this is it’s always been safety first, safety last, safety always.”

Below is an excerpt of Jeff Farrah, CEO of the Autonomous Vehicle Industry Association, a witness at Thursday’s hearing:

“Congressman Latta, I want to first start by thanking you for all your efforts over the course of a very long time and acknowledge all the effort that you put into this issue. I don’t think there’s anyone in Congress who’s thought more deeply about this (automated vehicles) and been more committed to this. I know you’ve worked very closely with Congresswoman Dingell as well. I know she stepped out of the room here. We wanted to acknowledge her work as well…

“And we’re very pleased to work with you again to try and advance this legislation. I think that you’ve really articulated why this is so important from a safety perspective, from an economic perspective, and from a strategic competitor perspective. So I think that there’s a couple of things that we need to do here really to make sure that we are advancing public trust. And one of those is making sure that the federal government is speaking to vehicle design, construction, and performance issues, which only it can speak to uniformly. And that’s something that’s going to be married with a lot of the great efforts that have happened in a variety of US states, including in your state of Ohio…”

Congressman Latta is currently the co-chair of the Congressional Autonomous Vehicle Caucus; a bipartisan caucus aimed at educating Congress on how autonomous vehicle technology can improve the safety and accessibility of the nation’s roads.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — On Tuesday, July 8, U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) will hold a telephone town hall to help Pennsylvanians fight fraud, stop scams, and offer ways to protect your personal information. Officials from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) will join the call to offer insight and answer questions.

In April, the FBI released its annual Internet Crime Report, which revealed scammers stole more than $16 billion from Americans in 2024, a 33% increase in losses from 2023.

“My office often received numerous calls from constituents who remain incredibly concerned about, or have even fallen victim to, scams and fraud,” said Rep. Kelly. “Our goal with this live telephone town hall is to give Pennsylvanians the tools necessary to fight back and to protect their personal information at a time when scams and fraud are on the rise. We hope you can join us!”

DETAILS

Who: Rep. Mike Kelly & Experts from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and FBI.

MIL-OSI USA: Remarks by Acting Chairman Caroline D. Pham, 100 Impact Leaders Dinner and Annual Awards, Digital Assets Global Forum, UK House of Lords

Source: US Commodity Futures Trading Commission

Good evening, my lords, ladies and gentlemen. I would like to express my gratitude to Lord Taylor of Warwick and Dr. Lisa Cameron, as well as the Financial Club and the UK US Crypto Alliance, for this recognition at the Digital Assets Global Forum 100 Impact Leaders Dinner and Annual Awards and inviting me to provide remarks. Thank you also to Baroness Uddin and Lord Ranger, and especially to all the event staff at the House of Lords.
It is a great honor to receive this year’s Legacy Award, and a great privilege to share my views regarding innovation and market structure in financial services. Tonight’s event is a testament to the strength and longevity of the close relationships among UK and U.S. institutions, and the special relationship between our two great Nations.
Crypto and Digital Assets
In April, Treasury Secretary Bessent and Chancellor Reeves discussed digital asset regulation and laid the groundwork for our governments to explore ways “to support the use and responsible growth of digital assets.”
In the context of that discussion, I was pleased to learn that Chancellor Reeves acknowledged the importance of the UK-U.S. Financial Regulatory Working Group (FRWG), which I will discuss in a few minutes. Both the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) are members, and our agencies have partnered closely for decades.
The UK Government has moved quickly on cryptoasset regulatory proposals, including the FCA’s public consultation on various papers and publication of an FCA Crypto Roadmap.
So, I would like to highlight for you the CFTC’s swift progress on President Trump’s executive orders and policy agenda for digital assets.
For both our Nations, this is the light at the end of a very long tunnel, the dawn of a new golden age for market innovation, and the culmination of years of hard work by both the public and private sectors.
Responsible innovation and fair competition
While UK regulators have recently gained a secondary mandate on competition, the CFTC has long had a dual mandate to promote responsible innovation and fair competition in our markets.
Our dual mandate enshrines the simple truth that derivatives are financial instruments that are at the cutting edge of market innovation, and therefore our regulatory framework must be principles-based and flexible to adapt to new markets and new products.
Let me tell you about my personal journey towards ensuring that the CFTC remains not only the first, but also at the forefront, of leadership on digital asset markets.
The U.S. regulation of spot digital assets is a high priority for the CFTC because the largest digital asset markets are commodities.
It is also a high priority for me because I have worked on crypto and digital assets initiatives for over 10 years—since 2013, when I was staff at the CFTC and the Bitcoin Foundation came to Washington, DC to engage with regulators on responsible innovation.
That’s right—the crypto industry did not run away from regulation, they ran towards it, even in those early years, in hopes of finding a clear regulatory roadmap.
At that time, we at the CFTC thought that Bitcoin was a commodity. Two years later, in 2015, the CFTC made this view known publicly, and has maintained this view ever since as this novel asset class has expanded to include more tokens.
After my initial experience with crypto at the CFTC, I engaged on crypto again in the private sector.
I worked on Citi’s digital asset strategy, including product development and strategic equity and venture capital investments, and I worked on transactions, partnerships, vendors, and new clients.
I led digital assets global regulatory strategy and policy advocacy and initiatives to implement governance, risk, and control frameworks and compliance policies and procedures. That included leading global engagement in supervisory examinations of distributed ledger technology (DLT or blockchain) and digital assets by both U.S. and non-U.S. regulators—including the FCA.
Based on my hands-on experience, when I became a CFTC Commissioner, I knew providing regulatory clarity for digital assets had to be a priority.
I first proposed 10 fundamentals for responsible digital asset markets, which could be universally applied in any jurisdiction, in 2022. Then, I proposed a CFTC digital asset markets pilot program as a U.S. regulatory sandbox in 2023. I was gratified to be named to CoinDesk’s Most Influential 2023 list for these efforts.
Last year, in 2024, the Digital Asset Markets Subcommittee of the CFTC’s Global Markets Advisory Committee (GMAC), which I sponsor, developed and made two recommendations to the Commission: (1) a U.S. digital asset taxonomy and (2) regulatory treatment of tokenized non-cash collateral.
I want to thank the firms—many in this audience—from the largest banks and asset managers, to exchanges and clearinghouses, to crypto native startups, who have contributed to the GMAC’s efforts and graciously provided their time and resources to create a consensus view across both traditional and digital asset markets.
These recommendations for industry standards reflect years of thoughtful, disciplined work from the actual builders in this space who are the industry leaders.
It’s a common global solution that works for everyone, and also includes input from both international standard setters and non-U.S. regulatory authorities.
A golden age for market innovation
This year, in the Trump Administration’s first 100 days, the CFTC has taken decisive action to implement these prior proposals and promote a pro-innovation, pro-growth approach for digital assets.
The CFTC is a member of the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets, which is expected to release a report next month that will be the Administration’s crypto roadmap. We have been working closely with the U.S. Treasury Department, the SEC, and other agencies on this productive and fruitful effort.
In February, I hosted a first-ever Crypto CEO Forum and participated in the groundbreaking White House Digital Assets Summit.
The CFTC has withdrawn outdated staff advisories and released new guidance to improve regulatory clarity for American and other innovators and entrepreneurs in crypto and digital assets.
We have had discussions on a digital asset markets pilot program and will soon participate as an observer in industry tokenization initiatives.
And, the CFTC recently completed a public comment period on 24/7 trading and perpetual derivatives, two crypto market innovations that may have implications for other asset classes with sufficient liquidity. Perpetual derivatives have been trading live on CFTC-registered designated contract markets (DCMs) since April, and 24/7 trading has been live since May.
The CFTC has provided technical assistance to Congress on various digital asset legislative proposals, including the CLARITY Act, and stands ready to carry out our mission if our jurisdiction is expanded. The future is bright.
Looking ahead, the U.S. must have a durable and flexible approach to regulation that will keep up with continuing innovation and stand the test of time.
Lessons learned
I appreciate Lord Taylor’s remarks about learning from the past. I will share some lessons learned from my experience at the CFTC and in the private sector with implementing the Dodd-Frank Act, the last time the U.S. enacted legislation that dramatically reshaped market structure.
The CFTC’s implementation of Dodd-Frank with our swaps regulations had far-reaching unintended consequences. Fifteen years later, the CFTC is still working to eliminate unworkable, overly burdensome requirements and resolve regulatory overreach that have significantly increased costs for all market participants with no meaningful benefits.
There are two key lessons learned, and we must not repeat the mistakes of the past.
Regulatory moat
First, Dodd-Frank’s duplicative, costly, and unnecessary regulatory requirements that cost billions of dollars annually for registration, compliance, and reporting—in addition to enforcement penalties that have become a tax on doing business—have resulted in a regulatory moat that is a barrier to entry for smaller firms, startups, and entrepreneurs.
This has led to anti-competitive effects and consolidation and concentration of market participants, because only the biggest firms can afford the overhead.
Any mandate or issuance of new regulations by the CFTC should leverage our existing registration categories and compliance requirements to avoid piling on with another layer of overregulation that has no benefit to market integrity or customer protection.
Market fragmentation
Second, Dodd-Frank’s jurisdictional overreach and the CFTC’s initial approach to cross-border activity resulted in swaps market fragmentation. These effects were especially profound in London and New York, the most important trading hubs.
A lack of harmonization based on principles of international comity, mutual recognition, and regulatory coherence led to fractured market liquidity that is less resilient to market shock or dislocation, increasing both market volatility and systemic risk.
Market fragmentation also resulted in increased complexity and costs for international financial institutions and other market participants’ legal entity strategy, booking models, and other operational processes. Increasing complexity increases both financial and non-financial risks.
Again, fifteen years later, the CFTC still has not completed implementing a substituted compliance regime across all CFTC swaps regulation.
Most of the CFTC’s over 20 staff letters, advisories, or other guidance issued since January under my leadership as acting Chairman have been to fix remaining Dodd-Frank issues based on my experience as an operating executive.
Because crypto and digital asset markets are borderless by design, it is imperative that the CFTC’s policy approach ensures that substituted compliance will be available from the start for entities that are properly registered in their home country jurisdictions that have comparable regulatory schemes, and that reciprocal mutual recognition for CFTC-registered entities is available as well.
The close partnership between UK and U.S. authorities can help to achieve this regulatory coherence. By leveraging existing registration categories and cross-border substituted compliance or mutual recognition, the CFTC and our non-U.S. regulatory counterparts would not have to reinvent the wheel and further delay growth and progress for digital asset markets.
Our current CFTC regulated entities could begin trading crypto on day one, and bring previously offshore activity back onshore to the U.S. with no negative impact to depth of market liquidity.
Simplicity is the solution
I have encouraged technology-neutral regulations that do not have to be continually rewritten to keep up with innovation, and activity-based regulations that do not require burdensome and costly entity-registration requirements that stifle competition by raising the gate to new entrants with less capital (namely, start-ups and entrepreneurs).
It is critical that once further regulatory clarity is provided, including through interpretations and exemptions, that the CFTC is prepared to move quickly rather than waiting to complete the 4 to 5 year process to develop and adopt additional digital asset regulations, for the crypto and financial sector to then spend even more years to implement.
The regulatory burn rate and the costs of missing out on market share are real.
A simple approach that can be completed in 12 to 18 months is the fastest way to ensure that the U.S. is no longer left behind when it comes to promoting innovation and welcoming American entrepreneurs and companies to come back home.
This is how we ensure U.S. competitiveness and that the U.S. leads the way in harnessing the potential of this new technology to create economic opportunities for all Americans. This is how the U.S. becomes the crypto capital of the world.
UK and U.S. Relationship
In the FinTech and digital-assets space, the CFTC’s coordination with our UK counterparts has enabled us to navigate the rapidly changing landscape, mitigate risks, and advance responsible innovation. I especially want to recognize our close cooperation with the FCA in this regard.
In 2018, the CFTC and the FCA signed a FinTech Innovation Arrangement wherein we each committed to collaborate and support innovative firms through our respective financial technology initiatives.
CFTC staff members have also benefitted from participating with their UK peers and other regulatory partners in the Financial Innovation Partnership, which is a dialogue like the FRWG, designed to focus on facilitating our mutual engagement in financial innovation.
In other areas of financial services oversight, we have a long and deep history of collaboration.
These long-standing examples serve as a formidable blueprint for successful collaboration going forward regarding digital-assets, decentralized finance, and artificial intelligence (AI):

In 1986, the CFTC and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) signed a memorandum of understanding with the UK Department of Trade and Industry, now succeeded by the FCA.

In 1989, the CFTC included the UK among the first exemptions issued under Rule 30.10 (allowing UK firms to serve as futures brokers for U.S. customers on UK exchanges without having to register as brokers in the U.S.). Many UK firms still avail themselves of this 30.10 relief.

In 1991, we signed a memorandum of understanding amongst the CFTC, SEC, the then Department of Trade and Industry, and the Securities and Investments Board (the latter two succeeded by the FCA, the Prudential Regulation Authority, and the Bank of England) on mutual assistance and the exchange of information.

In 2009, the CFTC and the Bank of England executed a memorandum of understanding on Central Counterparty Clearing House (CCP) supervision.

In 2020, the CFTC revised that clearing memorandum of understanding with the Bank of England to reflect the cooperation and exchange of information in the supervision and oversight of CCPs that operate on a cross-border basis in the U.S. and UK.

In the Spring of 2023, the CFTC and Bank of England announced a further strengthening of our commitment to close cooperation and mutual understandings on the supervision of CCPs.

Later in 2023, the UK Parliament published its CCP equivalence decision for the CFTC. This was an important milestone in our mutual deferential approach to supervision because it highlights our strong cooperation and allows greater cross-border access for our regulated entities.

Each of these achievements have been possible because we have a relationship based on trust and mutual respect.
Since the financial crisis and global derivatives regulatory reform, the CFTC directly regulates the largest UK banks as swap dealers, and much hard work has gone into establishing a substituted compliance and mutual recognition regime. I’m pleased to have furthered these efforts under my chairmanship as well.
The UK-U.S. Financial Regulatory Working Group
During the most recent FRWG meeting, representatives of our finance ministries, markets regulators, and prudential authorities discussed the strong current of innovation evident in our jurisdictions as well as the means to collaborate on a foundational framework in the areas of digital-assets and AI.
Our respective delegations provided updates on proposed legislation to regulate digital assets, including stablecoin. UK participants also noted that you have updated your Digital Securities Sandbox and are building on recent discussions between the Chancellor and the U.S. Treasury Secretary.
Importantly, the FRWG also discussed exploring potential opportunities to support cross-border innovation. Participants emphasized the importance of effective regulation in promoting economic growth while also addressing risks and continued bilateral and international engagement within the sector and amongst authorities.
In that regard, FRWG representatives also exchanged views on their respective approaches to AI and both current and future AI use cases within financial services. U.S. and UK authorities discussed means to work together, including as appropriate through international standard-setting and coordination institutions, to realize the potential of this technology and address the risks of AI in financial services.
Conclusion
During my chairmanship and as a commissioner, I have tirelessly advocated for a level playing field for global businesses and access to markets. Relationships—especially special ones like ours, the UK and the U.S.—make this possible.
Through my work with the CFTC’s GMAC and engagement with international standard-setters like the Financial Stability Board (FSB), Bank for International Settlements (BIS) and the Basel Committee for Banking Supervision (BCBS), the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and my bilateral relationships with nearly two dozen of the CFTC’s regulatory counterparts around the world, I believe that we can achieve shared prosperity through economic growth and the engine of capital markets.
As our Nations continue to forge ahead with our pro-innovation agendas through our multiple regulatory initiatives, our markets will be well-served by our continued cooperation.
Thank you.

In 1991, we signed a memorandum of understanding amongst the CFTC, SEC, the then Department of Trade and Industry, and the Securities and Investments Board (the latter two succeeded by the FCA, the Prudential Regulation Authority, and the Bank of England) on mutual assistance and the exchange of information.

In 2009, the CFTC and the Bank of England executed a memorandum of understanding on Central Counterparty Clearing House (CCP) supervision.

In 2020, the CFTC revised that clearing memorandum of understanding with the Bank of England to reflect the cooperation and exchange of information in the supervision and oversight of CCPs that operate on a cross-border basis in the U.S. and UK.

In the Spring of 2023, the CFTC and Bank of England announced a further strengthening of our commitment to close cooperation and mutual understandings on the supervision of CCPs.

Later in 2023, the UK Parliament published its CCP equivalence decision for the CFTC. This was an important milestone in our mutual deferential approach to supervision because it highlights our strong cooperation and allows greater cross-border access for our regulated entities.

Each of these achievements have been possible because we have a relationship based on trust and mutual respect.
Since the financial crisis and global derivatives regulatory reform, the CFTC directly regulates the largest UK banks as swap dealers, and much hard work has gone into establishing a substituted compliance and mutual recognition regime. I’m pleased to have furthered these efforts under my chairmanship as well.
The UK-U.S. Financial Regulatory Working Group
During the most recent FRWG meeting, representatives of our finance ministries, markets regulators, and prudential authorities discussed the strong current of innovation evident in our jurisdictions as well as the means to collaborate on a foundational framework in the areas of digital-assets and AI.
Our respective delegations provided updates on proposed legislation to regulate digital assets, including stablecoin. UK participants also noted that you have updated your Digital Securities Sandbox and are building on recent discussions between the Chancellor and the U.S. Treasury Secretary.
Importantly, the FRWG also discussed exploring potential opportunities to support cross-border innovation. Participants emphasized the importance of effective regulation in promoting economic growth while also addressing risks and continued bilateral and international engagement within the sector and amongst authorities.
In that regard, FRWG representatives also exchanged views on their respective approaches to AI and both current and future AI use cases within financial services. U.S. and UK authorities discussed means to work together, including as appropriate through international standard-setting and coordination institutions, to realize the potential of this technology and address the risks of AI in financial services.
Conclusion
During my chairmanship and as a commissioner, I have tirelessly advocated for a level playing field for global businesses and access to markets. Relationships—especially special ones like ours, the UK and the U.S.—make this possible.
Through my work with the CFTC’s GMAC and engagement with international standard-setters like the Financial Stability Board (FSB), Bank for International Settlements (BIS) and the Basel Committee for Banking Supervision (BCBS), the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and my bilateral relationships with nearly two dozen of the CFTC’s regulatory counterparts around the world, I believe that we can achieve shared prosperity through economic growth and the engine of capital markets.
As our Nations continue to forge ahead with our pro-innovation agendas through our multiple regulatory initiatives, our markets will be well-served by our continued cooperation.
Thank you.

MIL-OSI United Nations: 27 June 2025 Departmental update Partners unite to launch WHO Disability Health Equity
Source: World Health Organisation

WHO has launched the WHO Disability Health Equity Initiative, a landmark global initiative to advance health equity for over 1.3 billion people with disabilities.

Unveiled on 10 June 2025, at the United Nations Headquarters in New York during the 18^th session of the Conference of States Parties to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the initiative marks a bold step toward achieving health equity for all. The initiative aims to guide governments, health institutions, and communities in addressing barriers to care, promoting inclusive policies, and strengthening data and research on disability and health. Over 150 participants—government leaders, civil society, academia, and persons with disabilities—gathered in person, while many more joined online.

Darryl Barrett, WHO’s Technical Lead on Disability presented a bold vision for the initiative. He discussed persistent systemic failures – political inaction, underinvestment, fragmented collaboration, and the exclusion of organizations of persons with disabilities – as critical barriers to progress. “Health systems are not fit-for-purpose,” Barrett said. “If we agree on Health for All, then we must agree that services must be inclusive and accessible. Right now, we can’t say that with confidence.”

The Initiative is built around four strategic pillars:
1. Leadership by persons with disabilities and their organizations
2. Political prioritization of disability-inclusive health
3. Inclusive health systems and service delivery
4. Strengthening data and evidence
Barrett also outlined how this new initiative will facilitate strategic engagement with key partners to advance health equity for persons with disabilities, including through a multi-stakeholder network, partnerships with the private sector, technical guidance development, and support for country-level implementation. He emphasized that WHO’s work has been shaped by years of collaboration with diverse partners, including organizations of persons with disabilities. “We at WHO haven’t done this by ourselves,” Barrett noted. “The strong presence of partners – both in the room and online – reflects the shared commitment needed to drive meaningful, lasting change.”

David Duncan, Special Olympics athlete and Chair of the Global Athlete Leadership Council, delivered a powerful testimony about the discrimination people with intellectual and developmental conditions often face in health care. “Invisible, unknown, disrespected… but I know it’s possible to do better – and that’s something everyone deserves,” Duncan said.

Norway’s Minister of Culture and Equality, Lubna Jaffery, issued a powerful call to action, urging governments to close health access gaps and uphold the rights of persons with disabilities. Emphasizing access to health services, reproductive autonomy for women with disabilities, and expanded availability of assistive products, Jaffery affirmed Norway’s leadership in disability-inclusive development. “Inclusion is not just a policy, it is a principle and we are committed to making it a reality for all.”

Sweden’s Director-General of the Agency for Participation, Malin Ekman-Aldén, echoed this commitment, stressing that advancing health equity for persons with disabilities is a human rights imperative. She highlighted Sweden’s continued investments in inclusive development and welcomed the WHO initiative as a key driver of accountability, better data, and systemic change.

Dirk Platzen, Director at Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, underscored the need for political leadership in building inclusive health systems. Introducing Australia’s new International Disability Equity and Rights Strategy, he called for recognition of health as a fundamental human right, not a privilege.

Representing Germany, Michael Schloms of the Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development emphasized international collaboration, sustainable financing, and shared responsibility. Reflecting on Germany’s experience hosting global disability events and co-leading the Global Disability Summit, he reaffirmed support for the initiative and the Amman-Berlin Declaration.

Speakers from civil society, funding agencies, and academia highlighted the importance of funding, civil society engagement, and academic research in sustaining momentum and ensuring accountability. Ola Abualghaib, Director of the Global Disability Fund, emphasized the Fund Strategy’s alignment with the new WHO initiative. Hannah Loryman, Co-Chair of the International Disability and Development Consortium UN Task Force, stressed the vital role of civil society in advocacy, technical input, and accountability. Bonnielin Swenor, Director of the Disability Health Research Center at Johns Hopkins University, highlighted academia’s responsibility to advance disability health equity through inclusive research, education, and community engagement. She called for a paradigm shift from “living with a disability” to “thriving with a disability,” driven by data and implementation science.

This initiative offers a pathway to making better choices – choices that ensure dignity, autonomy, and the right to health for all persons with disabilities.

Jarrod Clyne / Deputy Director of the International Disability Alliance

Audience members raised critical issues including the need for sustainable health system funding in humanitarian crises, the inclusion of Deaf people and persons with a psychosocial condition, the importance of training health professionals, digital health acccessibility, and support for independent living – highlighting the diverse and intersectional challenges that must be addressed to achieve true health equity for persons with disabilities.

Jarrod Clyne, Deputy Executive Director of the International Disability Alliance, closed the event by stressing the importance of persistence, partnership, and shared responsibility. “This initiative offers a pathway to making better choices – choices that ensure dignity, autonomy, and the right to health for all persons with disabilities,” he said.

MIL-OSI Analysis: The UK has published a ten-year industrial strategy to boost key sectors of the economy – here’s what the experts think

Source: The Conversation – UK – By Michael A. Lewis, Professor of Operations and Supply Management, University of Bath

The UK government has published a ten-year strategy outlining how it aims to boost productivity and innovation across eight key sectors of the economy. From the future of AI to energy security and net zero, it’s a broad and ambitious plan. Our experts assess what it tells us about how the UK economy – and the jobs it offers – could look in future.

Nuclear placed firmly in the centre of the UK’s low-carbon future

Doug Specht, Reader in Cultural Geography and Communication, University of Westminster

For clean energy and industrial growth, the strategy presents an ambitious and comprehensive vision. And it seeks to establish the UK as a global leader in clean energy manufacturing and innovation. A key strength lies in its substantial investment commitments, however this includes £14.2 billion for the controversial Sizewell C nuclear power station and more than £2.5 billion for a Small Modular Reactor (SMR) programme.

Nuclear energy remains controversial – nevertheless, the strategy firmly places it as a central pillar for low-carbon, reliable energy and national security.

The strategy also targets high-growth sectors, prioritises regional development and introduces support schemes and regulatory reforms to tackle high electricity costs for industry, and slow grid connections. Yet despite these potential strengths, there are notable challenges. Implementation risks are significant, given the ten-year timeframe and potential shifts in political priorities.

And regional disparities and social inequalities may not be fully addressed, as the focus is on high-potential city regions. Some areas could be left behind. Skills shortages in engineering and digital sectors persist, and there is not enough detail on reskilling and lifelong learning. The importance of supply chain resilience, especially for the critical minerals needed for the green transition is acknowledged but not fully assured.

Overall, the strategy is ambitious and well-structured. But a reliance on nuclear rather than true renewables is seeking a quick win with high risks and high costs. A more radical and inclusive plan that expanded green infrastructure, and provided details of resilient growth across all regions and sectors, would have been welcomed.

An innovation boost for the UK’s world-leading creative industries

Bernard Hay, Head of Policy at the Creative Industries Policy and Evidence Centre, Newcastle University

The plan for the creative industries is a significant step forward for this critical sector. With multiple new commitments announced on areas ranging from scale-up finance and AI to skills, exports and freelance support, there is a lot to welcome for the sector. After all, it already accounts for over 5% of the UK’s annual gross value added (or GVA – which measures the value of goods and services) and 14% of its services exports.

One key aspect is boosting creative industries’ research and development (R&D), which is a driver of innovation, productivity and growth. This includes £100 million for the Arts and Humanities Research Council’s clusters programme, which supports location-based, creative R&D partnerships between universities and industry.

And by the end of the year, HMRC will publish clarification on what types of activity are eligible for R&D tax relief, to include arts activities that meet certain criteria. This is a nuanced change, but together with the other plans, it could have a catalytic effect on innovation in the sector.

Supporting regional creative economies is a golden thread running through this plan. A new £4 billion group capital initiative from the British Business Bank, announced earlier in the spending review, will be an important source of scale-up finance for small and medium-sized creative businesses that face barriers in accessing capital.

It is also welcome to see the government both increasing creative industries investment in several city-regions and supporting places to join up and work together through “creative corridors”. Coupled with the ongoing devolution of powers and funding in England, the next decade provides a huge opportunity for local policy innovation. This includes sharing and scaling proven strategies in growing regional creative economies.

An effective industrial strategy relies on high-quality data and analysis to support it. This is especially true when dealing with a rapidly evolving part of the economy such as the creative industries. The new plan includes commitments to strengthen the evidence base, including by increasing access to official statistics. This is good news not only for researchers, but for the whole sector.

Advanced manufacturing: promising plans, but persistent problems

Michael Lewis, Professor of Operations and Supply Management, University of Bath

The government plans to invest £4.3 billion in advanced manufacturing. This covers research-driven production in sectors including automotive, aerospace and advanced materials (engineered substances that are especially useful in these industries). Some firms may also get energy cost relief through green levy exemptions.

A long-term plan is overdue, but the challenges are huge. Automotive production is targeted to rise substantially, but the sector will still depend heavily on a range of critical imports. The aerospace sector will start 40,000 apprenticeships by 2035, yet further education funding remains below 2010 levels. Much of the promised investment appears to be the repackaging of existing funding.

Most importantly, how to deliver these changes remains unclear. There are good ideas, like £99 million to expand the relatively successful Made Smarter Adoption programme to help small and medium-sized enterprises employ digital technology. But when helping small firms adopt basic digital tools counts as policy success, it shows how far UK manufacturing has fallen behind competitors. Likewise, when you need a new “connections accelerator service” just to help companies connect to the grid, it shows the scale of basic infrastructure problems that undermine grander ambitions.

Overall, the strategy marks real progress. However, without clear delivery plans, it reads more like a wish list than an action plan. This explains why industry reactions have been cautiously optimistic at best.

A chance to take the lead in the global AI race

Kamran Mahroof, Associate Professor of Supply Chain Analytics and Programme Leader for the MSc in the Applied Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics, University of Bradford

From a digital and technologies perspective, the industrial strategy appears to signal a strong commitment to anchoring the nation at the forefront of the global AI race. The proposed Sovereign AI Unit shows an intent to ensure national control and access to critical AI infrastructure, computational power and expertise.

This is pivotal, not only for research and development, but also for national security and economic resilience in an increasingly AI-driven world. It points to a recognition that relying solely on external providers for cutting-edge AI capabilities carries inherent risks.

Besides, some of the world’s most innovative AI businesses are based in the UK. British companies are pushing the limits of what is feasible, from Synthesia’s advances in synthetic media to DeepMind’s developments in machine learning. In sectors including public safety, insurance and defence, smaller firms like Faculty, Tractable and Mind Foundry are also having a significant impact.

Complementing this, the AI Growth Zones are designed to act as regional magnets for investment and innovation, particularly in the realm of data centres and high-density computational facilities. By streamlining planning and providing preferential access to energy, these zones could accelerate the development of the physical infrastructure needed.

This decentralised approach has received more than 200 bids already from local authorities. It also has the potential to spread the economic benefits of AI beyond established tech hubs, encouraging new regional powerhouses and creating high-skilled jobs right across the UK.

Taken as a whole, these projects show a deliberate effort to develop core competencies and draw in private-sector funding. This puts the UK in a position to benefit from AI’s potential. This effort to develop national AI capabilities is not a new idea – it echoes the US AI executive order and the EU’s AI Act.

However, given the dominance of global tech giants, the UK needs to define “sovereignty” in practice and decide whether it is willing to provide large-scale funding. At a time when debates continue around the UK’s defence budget — a field now deeply intertwined with AI – more transparency is needed on how these ambitions will be funded.

Growth plans for financial services – and moves to share the benefits beyond London

Sarah Hall, 1931 Professor of Geography, University of Cambridge

One of the most striking elements of the new plan is that it places financial services much more centrally compared to previous approaches.

There are good reasons for doing this. Financial services are a vital component of the UK economy, contributing close to 9% of economic output in 2023. Clearly then, an industrial strategy without one of the most important economic sectors would make little sense.

There is also a welcome emphasis on the ways in which financial services can grow, not only as a sector in its own right, but also to be better integrated in supporting the growth of other parts of the economy. Some important policy moves have already been announced, such as changes to pension funds aimed at increasing their investment in large infrastructure projects.

In order to meet these ambitions, the strategy is right to note that financial services need to be supported, not only in London but also across the many clusters around the UK. These include, for example, Edinburgh, Manchester and Bristol.

There will be more details in the sector plan, released alongside Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ Mansion House speech on July 15. At that point, we will be able to assess the measures intended to grapple with two longstanding issues for UK financial services. That is, how does the government bridge the gap between finance and the “real” economy (goods and non-financial services)? And how does it bridge the gap between London and the rest of the UK?

MIL-OSI Analysis: Climate, conflict and energy security – our research shows how the EU’s industrial policy must change to face this polycrisis

Source: The Conversation – UK – By Richard Bärnthaler, Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Ecological Economics, University of Leeds

Industrial policy is back – it’s currently central to the agendas of both the EU and the UK. This resurgence comes amid a polycrisis marked by climate breakdown, social inequality, energy insecurity and geopolitical instability. And it reflects a wider shift. Governments across G20 countries are stepping in more actively to shape their economies, moving away from the idea that markets should be left to run themselves.

This is an important development. But current frameworks for industrial policy risk deepening the crises they are meant to solve.

In our research with Sebastian Mang of the New Economics Foundation, we have found that in the case of the EU, its industrial policy framework is riddled with contradictions.

It seeks resilience, yet fails to strengthen essential public services that underpin stability. It aims for strategic autonomy, yet reinforces resource dependencies. And while it gestures towards sustainability, it remains tethered to private-sector strategies that delay the phase-out of harmful industries.

Eroding foundations

EU industrial policy aims to strengthen the resilience of the bloc’s single market by preventing supply chain disruptions. It rightly views Europe’s economy as an interconnected ecosystem, where shocks in one sector ripple across others. But it fails to prioritise the foundational sectors that sustain everyday life. These include essential services such as food, utilities, housing, healthcare and public transport.

Two core issues drive this failure. First, deregulation in the single market has often extended to essential services, pushing providers to operate like private businesses. For example, liberalisation of the energy sector has contributed to volatile prices and energy poverty. And EU competition law and state aid rules have historically constrained social housing provision.

Yet social resilience — the capacity of communities to withstand and recover from crises — and, by extension market resilience, rely on these essential services. But affordable housing, universal healthcare and affordable energy for households are often not prioritised.

Second, EU industrial policy lacks a clear definition of which sectors are “critical” and why. This results in inconsistent lists of priority industries and technologies, while foundational sectors like energy and housing often remain overlooked.

These blind spots have real consequences. Around 40% of Europe’s workforce is employed in foundational sectors. These sectors are where low-income households spend about two-thirds of their income. Yet they often remain precarious and undervalued, leaving Europe more exposed to economic shocks.

To build real resilience, industrial policy must reassert public control over essential services and recognise them as priorities. This means redefining what counts as “critical”, supporting jobs in foundational sectors and accelerating public investment. This investment could be enabled through measures such as reforming the fiscal rules and with joint borrowing by member states.

The scramble for resources

Europe is pushing for strategic autonomy (the capacity of the bloc to act in strategically important areas, without being dependent on non-member countries). The aim is to reduce reliance on imports in key industries such as green technology.

But to make this happen, the EU should put reducing demand for resources and energy at the centre of its industrial policy. Instead, however, its Critical Raw Materials Act foresees skyrocketing consumption of rare earths, lithium and other inputs.

This strategy is self-defeating. It increases the likelihood of European aggression towards the rest of the world and ultimately threatens long-term security and peace for all. These tensions are already surfacing. Export restrictions on things such as nickel, cobalt and rare earth minerals are multiplying. In an era of geopolitical ruptures, these tendencies are likely to intensify.

At the same time, resource conflicts are also escalating within Europe itself. Tensions are emerging in countries including Serbia, Portugal and Greece over lithium and copper, and the environmental and social costs of mining them. And indigenous communities such as the Sámi in northern Europe face threats to their land and rights.

This is not to argue against increasing the extraction of raw materials within Europe. However, without an absolute reduction in energy and material use, these contradictions will deepen. To avoid these problems, the EU must centre industrial policy on reducing unnecessary demand. Some key moves could include investing in public transport instead of subsidising cars, prioritising retrofitting over new building, ending planned obsolescence and backing agro-ecology over industrial farming.

Investing in public rather than private transport will help European nations reduce their demand on energy and materials.

Research shows that this kind of strategy could significantly lower Europe’s energy use. It could also drastically cut reliance on critical imports and contribute to achieving energy independence by 2050. This is all without compromising basic quality of life.

If Europe wants peace and security, demand reduction is a rational approach that must be at the heart of the EU’s industrial strategy. This should be adopted alongside strengthening ties of cooperation and integration with the rest of Eurasia and the global south, rather than ramping up antagonism towards these neighbours.

Green transition

The EU’s vision of “competitive sustainability” rests on the belief that market incentives and the private sector can drive the green transition. Yet despite decades of efficiency improvements, high-income countries have not decoupled material use and emissions from economic growth at the speed and scale required.

The EU remains reliant on derisking – using public subsidies, guarantees and looser regulations to make green investments attractive to private finance. But as this approach leaves both the pace and direction of change to private capital, it slows the phase-out of harmful industries.

What’s missing is more effective economic planning to restore public control over decarbonisation. Achieving this means building on existing mechanisms capable of delivering change — such as public credit guidance. This sets rules to limit the flow of finance from commercial banks to damaging sectors while directing investment toward sustainable ones.

China offers an example whereby the central bank has used public credit guidance to shift finance to cleaner sectors. The European Central Bank also experimented with credit guidance between 2022 and 2023, introducing climate scores for companies. And post-war France used planned credit to modernise infrastructure over two decades.

Europe and the UK are rearming, climate shocks are intensifying and global power dynamics are shifting. This moment demands a new industrial strategy — one that prioritises foundational sectors and creates fiscal space to build resilience. Reducing demand must be a prerequisite for security, peace and strategic autonomy. And reviving economic planning tools, such as public credit guidance, can accelerate the green transition.

Without these shifts, Europe and the UK face an increasingly unstable future. Industrial policy must change because the stakes are existential.

Industrial policy is back – it’s currently central to the agendas of both the EU and the UK. This resurgence comes amid a polycrisis marked by climate breakdown, social inequality, energy insecurity and geopolitical instability. And it reflects a wider shift. Governments across G20 countries are stepping in more actively to shape their economies, moving away from the idea that markets should be left to run themselves.

This is an important development. But current frameworks for industrial policy risk deepening the crises they are meant to solve.

In our research with Sebastian Mang of the New Economics Foundation, we have found that in the case of the EU, its industrial policy framework is riddled with contradictions.

It seeks resilience, yet fails to strengthen essential public services that underpin stability. It aims for strategic autonomy, yet reinforces resource dependencies. And while it gestures towards sustainability, it remains tethered to private-sector strategies that delay the phase-out of harmful industries.

Eroding foundations

EU industrial policy aims to strengthen the resilience of the bloc’s single market by preventing supply chain disruptions. It rightly views Europe’s economy as an interconnected ecosystem, where shocks in one sector ripple across others. But it fails to prioritise the foundational sectors that sustain everyday life. These include essential services such as food, utilities, housing, healthcare and public transport.

Two core issues drive this failure. First, deregulation in the single market has often extended to essential services, pushing providers to operate like private businesses. For example, liberalisation of the energy sector has contributed to volatile prices and energy poverty. And EU competition law and state aid rules have historically constrained social housing provision.

Yet social resilience — the capacity of communities to withstand and recover from crises — and, by extension market resilience, rely on these essential services. But affordable housing, universal healthcare and affordable energy for households are often not prioritised.

Second, EU industrial policy lacks a clear definition of which sectors are “critical” and why. This results in inconsistent lists of priority industries and technologies, while foundational sectors like energy and housing often remain overlooked.

These blind spots have real consequences. Around 40% of Europe’s workforce is employed in foundational sectors. These sectors are where low-income households spend about two-thirds of their income. Yet they often remain precarious and undervalued, leaving Europe more exposed to economic shocks.

To build real resilience, industrial policy must reassert public control over essential services and recognise them as priorities. This means redefining what counts as “critical”, supporting jobs in foundational sectors and accelerating public investment. This investment could be enabled through measures such as reforming the fiscal rules and with joint borrowing by member states.

The scramble for resources

Europe is pushing for strategic autonomy (the capacity of the bloc to act in strategically important areas, without being dependent on non-member countries). The aim is to reduce reliance on imports in key industries such as green technology.

But to make this happen, the EU should put reducing demand for resources and energy at the centre of its industrial policy. Instead, however, its Critical Raw Materials Act foresees skyrocketing consumption of rare earths, lithium and other inputs.

This strategy is self-defeating. It increases the likelihood of European aggression towards the rest of the world and ultimately threatens long-term security and peace for all. These tensions are already surfacing. Export restrictions on things such as nickel, cobalt and rare earth minerals are multiplying. In an era of geopolitical ruptures, these tendencies are likely to intensify.

At the same time, resource conflicts are also escalating within Europe itself. Tensions are emerging in countries including Serbia, Portugal and Greece over lithium and copper, and the environmental and social costs of mining them. And indigenous communities such as the Sámi in northern Europe face threats to their land and rights.

This is not to argue against increasing the extraction of raw materials within Europe. However, without an absolute reduction in energy and material use, these contradictions will deepen. To avoid these problems, the EU must centre industrial policy on reducing unnecessary demand. Some key moves could include investing in public transport instead of subsidising cars, prioritising retrofitting over new building, ending planned obsolescence and backing agro-ecology over industrial farming.

Investing in public rather than private transport will help European nations reduce their demand on energy and materials.

Research shows that this kind of strategy could significantly lower Europe’s energy use. It could also drastically cut reliance on critical imports and contribute to achieving energy independence by 2050. This is all without compromising basic quality of life.

If Europe wants peace and security, demand reduction is a rational approach that must be at the heart of the EU’s industrial strategy. This should be adopted alongside strengthening ties of cooperation and integration with the rest of Eurasia and the global south, rather than ramping up antagonism towards these neighbours.

Green transition

The EU’s vision of “competitive sustainability” rests on the belief that market incentives and the private sector can drive the green transition. Yet despite decades of efficiency improvements, high-income countries have not decoupled material use and emissions from economic growth at the speed and scale required.

The EU remains reliant on derisking – using public subsidies, guarantees and looser regulations to make green investments attractive to private finance. But as this approach leaves both the pace and direction of change to private capital, it slows the phase-out of harmful industries.

What’s missing is more effective economic planning to restore public control over decarbonisation. Achieving this means building on existing mechanisms capable of delivering change — such as public credit guidance. This sets rules to limit the flow of finance from commercial banks to damaging sectors while directing investment toward sustainable ones.

China offers an example whereby the central bank has used public credit guidance to shift finance to cleaner sectors. The European Central Bank also experimented with credit guidance between 2022 and 2023, introducing climate scores for companies. And post-war France used planned credit to modernise infrastructure over two decades.

Europe and the UK are rearming, climate shocks are intensifying and global power dynamics are shifting. This moment demands a new industrial strategy — one that prioritises foundational sectors and creates fiscal space to build resilience. Reducing demand must be a prerequisite for security, peace and strategic autonomy. And reviving economic planning tools, such as public credit guidance, can accelerate the green transition.

MIL-OSI USA: Supreme Court Upholds Constitutionality of Universal Service Fund: Congress must ensure its stability into the future

Source: Communications Workers of America

WASHINGTON, D.C. – In response to the Supreme Court’s opinion issued today in Consumers’ Research v. Federal Communications Commission considering the constitutionality of the Universal Service Fund, the Communications Workers of America (CWA) releases the following statement:

The Supreme Court upheld what most observers know to be true: the federal Universal Service Fund (USF) is fully constitutional. As the amicus brief signed by CWA explained, “Universal service principles have been a key element of American communications policy since the nation’s founding.”

While the legality of the Fund’s structure should never have been in doubt, the communications industry has changed since the USF was originally created in 1996. As technicians and customer service representatives in the telecommunication industry, CWA members see the positive impact of the USF every day. We also recognize that broadband internet and other emerging technologies now play a central role in our daily lives. It’s time for Congress to recognize this and take action to modernize the contribution mechanism supporting the fund to ensure that these essential services are available and affordable for all Americans.

We are gratified that Chair and Ranking Member of the Senate Telecommunications and Media Subcommittee, Senator Deb Fischer (R-NE) and Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), along with House Communications and Technology Subcommittee Chair Richard Hudson (R-NC9) and Ranking Member Doris Matsui (D-CA7), have re-started the Universal Service Fund Working Group. The working group puts Congress in a good position to take the action needed.

This round of litigation and briefing before the Supreme Court emphasized that support for the Universal Service Fund and the programs it supports are strong and broadly held. Companies and organizations as diverse as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, the National Foreign Trade Council, NCTA – The Internet & Television Association, the School Superintendents Association and the American Library Association, filed amicus briefs in support of the constitutionality of the fund, and illustrating the many devastating consequences that would arise if it failed.

CWA members stand ready to ensure that the USF is used to provide support to building and maintaining high-quality, fiber broadband infrastructure in rural and remote areas of the country and that low-income households can afford to purchase those services. Without such a network that reaches everyone and that everyone can afford, the well-being of our communities and our nation will be under threat.

MIL-OSI Russia: Russia produces hundreds of thousands of fiber-optic drones every month.

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

As part of a working visit to the Novgorod Region, First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov, together with Acting Governor of the Region Alexander Dronov, familiarized himself with the activities of industrial enterprises in the region.

“Our industry demonstrates sustainable growth from year to year. Thank you and the Federal Ministry of Industry and Trade for your support, all our requests find a response from your colleagues,” stressed Acting Governor of the Novgorod Region Alexander Dronov.

The First Deputy Prime Minister visited one of the production sites of the fiber-optic drones “Prince Vandal Novgorodsky”. The drone, developed in Novgorod land, was first used in the SVO in August 2024 in the Kursk direction and is currently the most effective fpv drone in the world in terms of cost/effectiveness. During its use in the SVO zone, the KVN drone destroyed enemy equipment worth more than $2 billion. The production of fiber-optic drones in Russia is growing, and today domestic enterprises can produce hundreds of thousands of such drones per month, fully satisfying any needs of the Armed Forces.

During a visit to JSC Special Design and Technology Bureau for Relay Technology, part of the Ruselectronics holding company of the Rostec state corporation, the First Deputy Prime Minister was presented with innovative serial products of the enterprise, as well as promising projects for the creation of modern domestic electronic components based on materials and components manufactured in Russia.

Among the new products of SKTB RT is a line of microwave modules. The devices, which will replace American, German and French analogues, are capable of withstanding multiple impacts with acceleration up to 50g and operating at temperatures from -60 to 85 degrees Celsius. It is important to note that the use of a modern domestic electronic component base reduces the price of new microwave modules by 40-55% compared to foreign analogues.

Another enterprise included in the working trip was the branch of the scientific and production corporation “Precision Instrument-Making Systems” in Veliky Novgorod, which is involved in the development and production of electronic modules and units for systems for measuring the parameters of space objects’ movement, hardware and software systems for providing the GLONASS global navigation system, as well as inter-satellite laser systems for exchanging broadband information.

The First Deputy Prime Minister, in particular, was shown other products of the enterprise: serial production of microprocessor knee modules “Active-2” for people with lower limb amputations has been launched here.

Denis Manturov visited the site of the innovative scientific and technological center “Intelligent Electronics – Valdai”, created on the instructions of President Vladimir Putin in 2021. The territory of the INTC houses the advanced engineering school of Novgorod University, the programming school from Sber “School 21”, as well as about 60 residents of the center, including companies from the fields of radio electronics, control system software, and the industrial Internet of things.

As part of the construction of the new stage of the ISTC, which is planned to be completed in 2026, a new laboratory building for semiconductor materials science will be created. Research and development of high-performance heterostructures for the modern electronics industry based on semiconductor materials will be organized there, as well as a full cycle of production of microassemblies and microcircuits – from processing silicon substrates to casing and packaging finished products.

“Novgorod enterprises are involved in the production of products for the implementation of special military operation tasks. As part of the diversification of production, these same enterprises are actively developing the production of civilian products, and the university where we are today works in close cooperation with them,” Denis Manturov noted, summing up the results of the working trip.

The First Deputy Prime Minister also instructed the Ministry of Industry and Trade to study the possibility of recapitalizing the regional industrial development fund of the Novgorod region to support projects for the production of high-tech products.

MIL-OSI United Kingdom: WTO General Council February 2025: UK Statements

Source: United Kingdom – Executive Government & Departments

Speech

WTO General Council February 2025: UK Statements

Statements delivered by Simon Manley, the UK’s Permanent Representative to the WTO and UN, 18 – 19 February 2025 at the World Trade Organization in Geneva.

Item 2: Practical Steps to Enhance the Process for the Appointment of Officers to Certain WTO Bodies. Communication from Canada, Chile, Jamaica, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Singapore and Switzerland

Thank you, Chair. The UK adds our congratulations to the new Chairs, and also extends our thanks to you, Chair, in particular, for your work in the General Council. Your leadership and tireless drive, which we can already see this morning, to take forward our work with both good humour and astute steering of the meetings has been hugely appreciated. On this item, the UK does support pragmatic initiatives that can help improve processes for all of us here at the WTO, so we are grateful to the countries who have put this forward. We do support reform by doing, and as this document says, this is reform by doing. It solves issues around the appointment of Chairs, which when they are delayed leads to gaps that effect all of us and the efficiency of the organization. It is practical steps that we should all be able to agree to and the UK supports it.

Item 4: Incorporation of the Agreement on Electronic Commerce into Annex 4 of the WTO Agreement

Thank you, Chair. The UK is disappointed with the objections this morning to the incorporation of the E-commerce agreement as an annex 4 plurilateral. It is even more disappointing to see the failure to reach agreement on an investment facilitation and development on the previous item and I would just like to acknowledge the large number of very eloquent and well-reasoned interventions, especially from developing countries, on how they, like all WTO numbers, stand to benefit from the Investment Facilitation for Development Agreement (IFDA). Both the IFDA and E-commerce agreements are in the category of things the WTO can and should do now, and in good time, before MC14. Speakers this morning, especially from developing countries, have clearly set out the benefits which the E-commerce agreement offers. I’m just going to briefly recap a few. First, that this is the first set of global digital trade rules, in a sector which already by 2020 represented 25% of global trade worth almost 5 trillion USD; it has a key role in global economic growth. It is an agreement which not just increases digital trade and lowers trade barriers, it also enhances trust in an open digital environment. In all these ways it can unlock opportunities for businesses, jobs and their consumers all around the world. It is also an agreement that has been inclusive in its preparation. The vast majority of the 91 countries originally involved in the negotiation are developing countries. It is inclusive in its benefits as so many developing countries have set out. It is not just the delegations in this room who say all of these things, just in the last few weeks. For example, we heard directly from businesses at the World Economic Forum about the benefits of unleashing digital trade for MSMEs, in particular. Then, very importantly, my last point to support the implementation of the agreement includes a multi-avenue support package comprising implementation periods, technical assistance and capacity building.

The UK is committed to continuing our support for various technical assistance and capacity-building initiatives, such as a Digital Access Programme. We are ready to work with all members on the E-commerce agreement to make progress and reach agreement swiftly, hopefully well in advance of MC14.

Item 5: Report by the Chairperson of the Trade Negotiations Committee and Report by the Director General

Thank you for your Report, in particular for reminding us of the measurable benefits traders have brought to economic growth and development and for your commitments driving forward all our work. The UK is ready to cooperate with all members to ensure meaningful progress across all the areas you mentioned in the run up to MC14, including things we can and should agree before MC14. We recognise that, as you said Director General, it is a challenging time for global trade. We are grateful for your efforts. As our Minister for Trade Policy and Economic Security said in the UK parliament last week, the UK stands behind your exemplary leadership. We agreed that the WTO is a forum to listen and to discuss differences on trade with a review to resolving them; for calm responses and constructive dialogue as we look ahead to MC14.

As we look ahead to MC14, we support the particular priority to deliver for development. For the UK this includes the things we can and should do before MC14. On the development benefits of IFDA and E-commerce, I refer to the points I and others, including so many developing countries, made this morning. On the fisheries subsidies agreements and, through them, realising SDG target 14.6, we hope both enter into force, and Fish One and adoption of Fish Two could be secured before the UN Ocean Summit in France in June. That these agreements are so close is actually a tribute to the hard work and readiness to listen with compromises by so many in this room. Completing that work will also help us form a clear pathway to MC14, including space to work on agriculture and other important areas already under discussion. On agriculture, our thanks also to outgoing Chair, Ambassador Alparslan Acarsoy of Türkiye, for his work. Achieving a breakthrough on agriculture is more essential than ever. We cannot lose time, including to agree a new Chair, and then to work for successive MC14. Director General, thank you again for your leadership. We of course recognise the challenges. Trade is not always straightforward. The UK continues to support the WTO in the multilateral trading system; the benefits for trade for all of us, for growth, for development, are real. We are committed to working with you, with Members, to realise them. Thank you.

Item 9: Follow-up to the WTO Off-Site Retreat on Trade as a Tool for Development and Way Forward. Request from Barbados and South Africa

Thank you, Chair and the Secretariat for giving us a quick readout of the discussions. Already today we have heard several times about the importance of high ambition on development for MC14, and more widely, and the UK fully agrees. We would particularly like to thank South Africa and Barbados for bring in this discussion and helping to set out a path forward and welcome your particular collaboration when we think about what can be achieved. Development is cross cutting in so much of our work, and that is why, for the UK, the best way to maintain short-term momentum is with the early agreement on outcomes that are already in reach. That is why in earlier interventions today we have stressed the development benefits from early conclusion on investment facilitation for development, fisheries and E-commerce. We add to this, the development opportunities around LDC graduation and indeed the opportunities through new accessions to the WTO, that we will hear about tomorrow. Equally, to make a success of this we want to hear ideas, and we urge developing country members in particular to deliver their priority proposals as soon as possible, so that we really can work together to achieve progress in the timeframe of MC14.

Finally, the UK is committed to wider initiatives supporting developing countries, working in partnerships, listening to needs, and with this in mind we note that as the only fund dedicated to LDC trade, the UK wants to ensure that the enhanced integrated framework continues to deliver impact for LDCs. We have just made available this year an additional £100,000 into the interim facility, which brings our total contribution to £1,000,000 and we hope this will help ensure continuity while the future of the fund is discussed. As Members are aware, we hope the EIF taskforce will make its recommendations very soon as a basis for further improvement, meeting the expectations of LDCs and donors. Thank you.

Item 11: WTO Accessions: 2024 Annual Report by the Director General

The UK is closely engaged in this work and supports prospective Members to secure the benefits of the global trading system by progressing their accessions. We particularly note the positive development impact of WTO accession and underline that we are keen to welcome more developing countries, particularly LDCs, to the WTO. We support the strategic focus for 2025 on the accession of Uzbekistan and Bosnia and Herzegovina who have made significant progress. The UK for example recently held constructive bilateral discussions with Uzbekistan to help advance the accession and we encourage all Members to work with Uzbekistan and Bosnia and Herzegovina to support their ambitions for early WTO accession. We also very much welcome Somalia’s first Working Party and Ethiopia’s renewed energy behind their accession as specific examples of LDC interest and with this in mind we would like to reconfirm the UK’s commitment to chairing the Working Party on the accession of Ethiopia, but are also grateful to the Deputy Director General for temporarily standing in the coming meeting. Finally, the UK is a provider of technical support in this area, and we note that the Enhanced Integrated Fund is open to LDCs post accession, so we encourage Timor Leste and Comoros to use the facility where it is helpful.

Item 13: Stocktaking of Work on the Operationalization of paragraph 21 of the MC13 Abu Dhabi Ministerial Declaration. Communication from Pakistan

Thank you, Chair. We will be brief, but we just wanted to add thanks to Pakistan for bringing this important issue back to the General Council’s attention. Unfortunately, if anything, it is becoming increasingly relevant and urgent, and the UK does see the role of trade in this area. We will publish a full statement but just to acknowledge, in particular, Pakistan’s proactivity and thinking of areas like services, financial services and trade debt and finance work to identify where, as a Membership, we can take things forward and we look forward to continuing to contribute.

Item 14: WTO at 30. Statement by the Director General

Thank you. I want to be short. We set out yesterday commitment to the WTO in the multilateral trading system and the opportunities we have at work to benefit all Members. Of course, that includes WTO reform by doing, and we set out our confidence in your leadership, Director General. Like Australia, we encourage further work on this proposal. Thank you.

MIL-OSI: EnigmaFund Venture Capital Launches Strategic Solana Reserve ($SSR)

Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

Mimetic Cross-Chain Index Fund Debuts with Over $28M Trading Volume in 24 Hours

BELIZE CITY, Belize, June 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EnigmaFund Venture Capital, a web3-focused venture capital fund and advisory, announces the stealth launch of the Strategic Solana Reserve ($SSR) index fund on Pump.fun.

Initially perceived as a meme token, $SSR is now unveiled as the cornerstone of an ambitious cross-chain index fund poised to redefine decentralized finance (DeFi) investment opportunities.

The Strategic Solana Reserve ($SSR) is designed to harness the high-performance, low-cost capabilities of the Solana blockchain while integrating cross-chain assets to create a diversified, resilient, and accessible index fund. This initiative reflects EnigmaFund’s commitment to bridging traditional finance with the rapidly evolving world of DeFi, fostering a retail-centric approach to accessibility.

“$SSR – and the Strategic Solana Reserve – is designed to give retail investors a really simple mimetic way to get exposure to the Solana, and later other, ecosystem value creation. When we launched we received over $28M in trading volume generated on-chain in less than 24 hours. The response was overwhelming,” said Enigma, General Partner and Founder of EnigmaFund Venture Capital.

“When it happened, we had $1M USD of unlocked tokens in our wallets and chose not to sell, avoiding harm to early participants. Some may see DeFi as a casino, but that’s not our vision or what we are committed to. We’ve since invested months of work and substantial capital into a rapidly forming strategy. Soon the full vision of a robust, cross-chain index fund built on Solana’s scalability and speed will become evident. I think the 2,000% increase in value of $SSR over the past 4 weeks reflects that,” Enigma added.

Embracing the memetic qualities of the Strategic Solana Reserve, the team has dedicated significant hours to design and storytelling, crafting a compelling lore centered around the chairman of the reserve. This character champions “Eagleitarianism,” adding a unique narrative to the project.

The mission of the Strategic Solana Reserve includes supporting builders and injecting liquidity into top-tier assets, all tracked in a live, on-chain index fund. Initially launching on Solana, $SSR will support legitimate projects, builders, and communities.

“Our goal is to demonstrate that projects like $SSR can embrace the worlds of decentralized finance and memes in an upstanding, transparent, and accessible way. DeFi is often seen as a lofty concept, but $SSR offers a fresh perspective on how such projects can operate. Platforms like Pump.fun are powerful, community-centric collaboration tools, far beyond their simplistic portrayals,” said Enigma.

The $SSR token will retain its meme status, fueled by buybacks from the index fund’s profits, with proceeds locked in three-year linear vesting schedules, all conducted on-chain.

MIL-OSI: Trade Crypto Futures with 100x Leverage – No KYC, Double Deposit Bonus & $50 Welcome Bonus for Everyone on BexBack!

Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

SINGAPORE, June 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As the price of Bitcoin surpassed the $100,000 mark and subsequently stabilized above $100,000, many analysts believe that it will enter a long-term high-volatility market. Holding spot positions may not continue to generate profits in the short term. BexBack Exchange is stepping up its efforts to provide traders with irresistible preferential packages. The platform now offers a 100% deposit bonus, a $50 welcome bonus for new users, and a 100x leverage on cryptocurrency trading, creating unparalleled opportunities for investors.

What Is 100x Leverage and How Does It Work?

Simply put, 100x leverage allows you to open larger trading positions with less capital. For example:

Suppose the Bitcoin price is $100,000 that day, and you open a long contract with 1 BTC. After using 100x leverage, the transaction amount is equivalent to 100 BTC.

One day later, if the price rises to $105,000, your profit will be (105,000 – 100,000) * 100 BTC / 100,000 = 5 BTC, a yield of up to 500%.

With BexBack’s deposit bonus

BexBack offers a 100% deposit bonus. If the initial investment is 2 BTC, the profit will increase to 10 BTC, and the return on investment will double to 1000%.

MIL-OSI: Trade Crypto Futures with 100x Leverage – No KYC, Double Deposit Bonus & $50 Welcome Bonus for Everyone on BexBack!

Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

SINGAPORE, June 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As the price of Bitcoin surpassed the $100,000 mark and subsequently stabilized above $100,000, many analysts believe that it will enter a long-term high-volatility market. Holding spot positions may not continue to generate profits in the short term. BexBack Exchange is stepping up its efforts to provide traders with irresistible preferential packages. The platform now offers a 100% deposit bonus, a $50 welcome bonus for new users, and a 100x leverage on cryptocurrency trading, creating unparalleled opportunities for investors.

What Is 100x Leverage and How Does It Work?

Simply put, 100x leverage allows you to open larger trading positions with less capital. For example:

Suppose the Bitcoin price is $100,000 that day, and you open a long contract with 1 BTC. After using 100x leverage, the transaction amount is equivalent to 100 BTC.

One day later, if the price rises to $105,000, your profit will be (105,000 – 100,000) * 100 BTC / 100,000 = 5 BTC, a yield of up to 500%.

With BexBack’s deposit bonus

BexBack offers a 100% deposit bonus. If the initial investment is 2 BTC, the profit will increase to 10 BTC, and the return on investment will double to 1000%.

Note: Although leveraged trading can magnify profits, you also need to be wary of liquidation risks.

How Does the 100% Deposit Bonus Work?
The deposit bonus from BexBack cannot be directly withdrawn but can be used to open larger positions and increase potential profits. Additionally, during significant market fluctuations, the bonus can serve as extra margin, effectively reducing the risk of liquidation.

MIL-OSI Russia: Alexander Novak: Bilateral trade turnover with Turkey has more than doubled in five years

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak and Minister of Trade of Turkey Omer Bolat, as co-chairs, held the 19th meeting of the Mixed Intergovernmental Russian-Turkish Commission on Trade and Economic Cooperation.

Among the main areas of trade and economic cooperation between Russia and Turkey, Alexander Novak singled out energy, agriculture, industrial cooperation, transport and logistics, customs cooperation, and tourism. Joint work is also underway in the fields of education, sports, information technology, and many other areas.

“Turkey is one of the three largest foreign trade partners of Russia. Bilateral trade turnover has increased 2.3 times in five years. I am confident that we will be able to maintain the positive dynamics in the future and focus on creating favorable conditions for increasing the volume of Russian-Turkish trade turnover, as well as on the implementation of existing and launching new projects. We are pleased to note the successful cooperation in the energy sector, which is a strategic area of our interaction, including in terms of the use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes. The implementation of the flagship project for the construction of the Akkuyu NPP in Turkey continues. We are ready to implement projects on the promising agenda in any mutually beneficial format,” said Alexander Novak.

He noted that in 2024, the trade turnover between the two countries approached $60 billion. The countries are moving towards achieving the goal of increasing mutual trade turnover to $100 billion in the coming years.

“Russia and Turkey have been building strong, friendly, good-neighborly relations based on dialogue and mutual respect for a long period of history. This concerns not only trade and economic relations, but also issues of ensuring sustainable peace in the region. Our relations in the regional and international sense are developing despite difficulties, the number and quality of new joint projects in various areas, including energy, is growing every day,” said Turkish Trade Minister Omer Bolat.

Alexander Novak spoke about the prospects for deepening cooperation in agriculture, tourism and sports. To ensure access of Turkish agricultural products to the Russian market and Russian food products to Turkey, the interaction of the supervisory authorities of the two countries is expanding, and the quality of products is being monitored. The tourist flow from Russia to Turkey is growing: by the end of 2024, more than 6 million tourists from Russia visited the country. As a result of the program to promote the Russian tourism brand in Turkey, last year record figures were achieved for inbound tourism from Turkey to Russia – 101 thousand tourists.

Turkish athletes are taking part in key sporting events in Russia. By the end of the year, Russia and Türkiye expect to sign a medium-term interdepartmental plan for sporting events for 2026–2028.

At the end of the 19th plenary session of the Joint Intergovernmental Russian-Turkish Commission on Trade and Economic Cooperation, Alexander Novak and Omer Bolat signed a final protocol, which outlined key tasks in all areas of mutual interest, including encouraging investment in the economies of both countries, simplifying customs regulations, expanding industrial and energy cooperation, etc.

MIL-OSI Africa: President Ramaphosa clarifies Deputy Minister’s removal

Source: South Africa News Agency

President Cyril Ramaphosa has spoken out following his decision to remove Deputy Minister of Trade, Industry and Competition, Andrew Whitfield, from his position.

Whitfield’s removal – which was done in terms of section 93 (1) of the Constitution – was announced on Thursday.

In a statement on Friday, President Ramaphosa said although it was not common practice for the President of the Republic of South Africa to provide reasons for either appointment or dismissals; “several unfortunate statements and outright distortions by a number of people” have made it necessary to do so.

“Mr Whitfield was removed as a Deputy Minister because he undertook an international visit without the permission of the President. His travel to the United States was a clear violation of the rules and established practices governing the conduct of Members of the Executive.

“This requirement is known to all Ministers and Deputy Ministers. These rules and established practices were expressly communicated to all members of the Executive during the induction sessions at the commencement of the 7th administration,” he said.

The President said the rules and practices “were repeated in Cabinet in March this year by me as President”.

“All international travel by members of the executive must always be undertaken with the express permission of the President. This practice is rigorously observed and adhered to by all members of the Executive. However, Mr Whitfield deliberately chose to violate this rule and practice,” President Ramaphosa said.

The President confirmed that prior to Whitfield’s removal, he spoke to Democratic Alliance (DA) and fellow Government of National Unity (GNU) party leader, John Steenhuisen about his removal and “I expect him to present to me for approval a replacement for Mr Whitfield from his party as the DA is entitled to a Deputy Minister as agreed”.

“In that discussion, Mr Steenhuisen informed me that Mr Whitfield had been expecting that he may be dismissed on the grounds that he had undertaken an international trip without the President’s permission.

“This expectation, along with a perfunctory letter of apology that Mr Whitfield wrote to me following his travel to the USA without the required permission, indicated that he was aware that his actions had violated the rules and established practices governing the conduct of Members of the Executive,” he said.

The President emphasised that previous Presidents had undertaken to remove ministers and deputy ministers before.

“During my discussion with Mr Steenhuisen, he asked me if there was precedent for the action that I intended to take in relation to Mr Whitfield. I informed him that there was indeed prior precedent.

“I told him that in 1995, President Nelson Mandela dismissed the late Deputy Minister Madikizela-Mandela and that in 2007 President Thabo Mbeki dismissed then Deputy Minister Nosizwe Madlala-Routledge on the grounds of undertaking international travel without permission.

“Given all these circumstances, there is consequently no reasonable grounds for Mr Steenhuisen and the Democratic Alliance to issue ultimatums and threats when the President exercises his constitutional prerogative and responsibility. Nor are there any grounds to try link this with matters that have no bearing on the conduct of the former Deputy Minister,” he said.

The President emphasised that there is “no basis” to suggest that the former Deputy Minister’s removal is “related to any other reason than his failure to receive permission to travel and adhere to the rules and established practices expected of members of the Executive”.

“While Mr Steenhuisen asked that he be allowed to brief the Democratic Alliance Federal Executive prior to the removal letter being delivered to Mr Whitfield, this would have had no bearing on my decision. It is the responsibility and the prerogative of the President to determine the timing and manner of the appointment and removal of Members of the Executive.

“I am amazed at Mr Steenhuisen’s intemperate reaction to the removal of Mr Whitfield. He knows very well that the blatant disregard of the rules and practices that govern the international travel of members of the executive is a serious violation that should not be permitted,” President Ramaphosa said.

The President reminded that it remains the Constitutional prerogative of the President to appoint or remove Ministers and Deputy Ministers.

“It is unprecedented in the history of our democracy that the exercise by the President of his constitutional prerogative and responsibility with respect to a clear violation of rules and established practices governing the conduct of Members of the Executive has met with such irresponsible and unjustifiable threats and ultimatums from a member of the executive.

“Let it be clear that the President shall not yield to threats and ultimatums, especially coming from members of the Executive that he has the prerogative to appoint in accordance with the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa,” President Ramaphosa said. – SAnews.gov.za

MIL-OSI USA: Grothman Reintroduces Enforce the Caps Act to Rein in Reckless Spending

Source: United States House of Representatives – Congressman Glenn Grothman (R-Glenbeulah 6th District Wisconsin)

Congressman Glenn Grothman (WI-06) has reintroduced the Enforce the Caps Act, which extends critical federal spending caps through Fiscal Year (FY) 2029. The legislation builds on the bipartisan Fiscal Responsibility Act, which currently enforces spending caps only through FY 2025.

“Americans are fed up with the reckless spending in Washington that continues to fuel our growing debt crisis,” said Grothman. “Congress already reached a bipartisan agreement on commonsense spending caps through FY25, and this legislation simply extends those enforcement tools through FY29, adding essential guardrails to protect taxpayers from runaway deficits.

“While the Fiscal Responsibility Act was a step forward, more action is needed to get Washington’s fiscal house in order. The Enforce the Caps Act strengthens our commitment to reducing the deficit and curbing inflation. This is about securing our nation’s economic future for future generations.”

“Congress needs automatic enforcement to make spending limits real. Rep. Grothman’s proposal to add sequester backing to appropriations caps for four more years makes good sense. As Congress continues with the unfinished business of ending excessive spending and debt, this legislation deserves members’ support,” said Kurt Couchman, Senior Fellow in Fiscal Policy with Americans for Prosperity.

“While the Fiscal Responsibility Act accomplished a $1.5 trillion reduction (CBO) in spending through, primarily, its FY2024 and FY2025 spending caps, President Biden and Senate Democrats would not allow enforceable spending limits in Fiscal Years 2026 through 2029. This leaves the nation’s fiscal stability vulnerable to whoever holds power during these years. Thankfully, Representative Glenn Grothman has introduced the Enforce the Caps Act, which would make these spending caps enforceable through sequestration. This law would decrease planned spending by an additional $553 billion. Rep. Grothman’s bill is a crucial next step towards fiscal sanity, providing a more stable economy for Americans and protecting future taxpayers. ATR urges all lawmakers to support this important legislation,” said Grover Norquist, President of Americans for Tax Reform.

“The Enforce the Caps Act is a vital step toward restoring fiscal discipline in Washington. This commonsense legislation would finally hold Congress accountable to the discretionary spending limits it has repeatedly agreed to but consistently ignored. JCN polling finds balancing the budget is one of the biggest priorities of American small businesses, and the Enforce the Caps Act would help rein in the reckless spending that is 100% responsible for America’s deficit crisis. It’s about time that Washington played by the same rules every Main Street entrepreneur does—living within a budget,” said Alfredo Ortiz, CEO of Job Creators Network.

“National Taxpayers Union is pleased to once again support the Enforce the Caps Act, which would make discretionary spending limits established in the Fiscal Responsibility Act enforceable through sequestration in future years. Enforcing these limits would promote greater budget discipline and help reduce annual deficit spending,” said Brandon Arnold, Executive Vice President of the National Taxpayers Union.

“The Taxpayers Protection Alliance (TPA) is proud to endorse the Enforce the Caps Act, reintroduced by Rep. Grothman. Following the enactment of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, which set discretionary spending caps for FY24–FY29, this legislation would reduce federal outlays by $553 billion from FY26 to FY33 by ensuring those caps are enforced through sequestration. TPA strongly supports this measure, which reins in Washington’s reckless spending and safeguards taxpayers’ hard earned dollars,” said David Williams, President of the Taxpayers Protection Alliance.

“Rep. Glenn Grothman’s Enforce the Caps Act takes a much-needed step toward restoring fiscal discipline. With binding spending caps set to expire after FY 2025, Congress should prevent a surge in discretionary spending that could fuel inflation and deepen the U.S. debt crisis. Locking in previously agreed upon spending caps—with a real enforcement mechanism—will help focus taxpayer dollars on core government priorities by forcing tradeoff considerations, and helping Congress do what every family must do: budget within limited means,” said Romina Boccia and Dominik Lett from Cato Institute.

“R Street Institute is pleased to support the ‘Enforce the Caps Act.’ Too often, when Congress sets fiscal targets as part of a negotiated deal, critical spending restrictions are postponed for future years and rarely achieved in full. This shortchanges taxpayers and legislators who were promised savings as part of a comprehensive agreement. It also devalues the legislative process by signaling that lawmakers never intended to follow the law, making it harder for legislators to work together in the future and undermining trust in the institution. By enforcing the spending limits in the ‘Fiscal Responsibility Act,’ Congress can at once secure urgently needed savings and boost congressional integrity,” said Nan Swift, Resident Fellow, Governance Project, R Street Institute.

“The Enforce the Caps Act would add real teeth to the Fiscal Responsibility Act beyond 2025, codifying significant deficit reduction in the process. We applaud Representative Grothman for his initiative in introducing this important bill. Although the Fiscal Responsibility Act was the largest and most important deficit reduction bill in over a decade, it does not include a mechanism to truly enforce its savings or discretionary targets beyond 2025. The ECA would extend the statutory caps in place for 2024 and 2025, limiting appropriations growth to 1 percent per year through 2029. Members have already voted for these spending levels as targets under the FRA, so it only makes sense to make them real. In doing so, the Enforce the Caps Act would play a significant role in improving America’s fiscal future,” said Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

“The Enforce the Caps Act is a step in the right direction. It strengthens the FRA by making the budget caps from FY 26′ to FY 29′ fully enforceable through sequestration. We applaud Congressman Grothman for reintroducing this commonsense measure to rein in out-of-control spending,” said Jill Homan, Deputy Director for Trade and Economic Policy for the America First Policy Institute

Background Information

The bipartisan Fiscal Responsibly Act of 2023 placed two years of enforceable discretionary spending caps for FY24 and FY25 and four years of non-enforceable caps for FY26 through FY29. The Enforce the Caps Act protects taxpayers by simply extending the enforcement period to apply to FY26 through FY29.

The Enforce the Caps Act would simply make the FY 26 through FY 29 caps enacted by the Fiscal Responsibility Act enforceable through sequestration.

According to the CBO, full enforcement of these caps would decrease outlays by $553 billion between 2026 and 2033.

This bill is endorsed by Americans for Prosperity, Americans for Tax Reform, Job Creators Network, National Taxpayers Union, R Street Institute, America First Policy Institute, Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, and Taxpayers Protection Alliance.

This bill has three original cosponsors, including Representatives Andy Barr (R-KY), Ralph Norman (R-SC), and David Rouzer (R-NC).

What Is a Free Psychic Reading?

A free psychic reading is a short, no-cost session where you receive guidance and insight from someone using intuitive abilities or spiritual tools. These readings aim to provide answers, direction, and emotional clarity. Many people turn to a free psychic reading to explore love, life decisions, timing, or confusing situations that feel unresolved.

A reader might use tarot cards, astrology, energy sensing, or other methods to interpret your circumstances. Some rely on impressions and intuition, while others may ask for your birth information to begin. Although the approach varies, the goal is the same: to help you better understand what is happening in your life and what steps may come next.

Recognizing Real Psychics vs. Scams

As free psychic reading online services grow, it becomes easier to connect with genuine intuitive advisors. However, it also brings the risk of running into fake psychics who use scripted messages or high-pressure tactics. To get the most from a free psychic reading, it’s important to spot a real connection and avoid misleading offers.

What Real Psychics Do in a Free Session

A genuine free psychic will focus directly on your question and build the session around your personal energy and details. Whether they use tarot, birth data, or energy reading, the session should feel specific and relevant. Real psychics will not force topics or dodge your question. If you request a free psychic love reading, they will stay focused on that subject and provide clear, compassionate insights.

Authentic readers might ask for your name or birth details, especially if they are providing a free psychic reading by date of birth and time. They will also check if you have a topic you wish to explore, showing their commitment to making the session meaningful.

Importantly, trustworthy psychics will never try to scare you or push you into buying more time. A free psychic reading should be about clarity, not fear.

⇒ Talk to a Trusted Psychic in a Free Psychic Chat Session!

Red Flags That Signal a Scam

Some clues can help you spot fake psychics. Watch for vague answers that could apply to anyone, repetitive or scripted messages, and strong pressure to pay for more time. If a psychic uses fear-based language — like “I sense a curse” or “Only I can fix this” — it’s time to leave.

Another major warning sign is if a site asks for payment or credit card details before letting you ask a free psychic question. Legitimate platforms offering free psychic reading online chat no credit card will never demand billing details to begin.

Recognizing Real Psychics vs. Scams

As free psychic reading online services grow, it becomes easier to connect with genuine intuitive advisors. However, it also brings the risk of running into fake psychics who use scripted messages or high-pressure tactics.

What Real Psychics Do in a Free Session

A genuine free psychic will focus directly on your question and build the session around your personal energy and details. Whether they use tarot, birth data, or energy reading, the session should feel specific and relevant. Real psychics will not force topics or dodge your question.

Authentic readers might ask for your name or birth details, especially if they are providing a free psychic reading by date of birth and time. They will also check if you have a topic you wish to explore, showing their commitment to making the session meaningful.

Importantly, trustworthy psychics will never try to scare you or push you into buying more time. A free psychic reading should be about clarity, not fear.

Red Flags That Signal a Scam

Some clues can help you spot fake psychics. Watch for vague answers that could apply to anyone, repetitive or scripted messages, and strong pressure to pay for more time. If a psychic uses fear-based language — like “I sense a curse” or “Only I can fix this” — it’s time to leave.

Another major warning sign is if a site asks for payment or credit card details before letting you ask a free psychic question. Legitimate platforms offering free psychic reading online chat no credit card will never demand billing details to begin.

MIL-OSI: LivFresh 2025: How LivFresh Dental Gel Toothpaste Is Earning Clinical and Consumer Trust in Oral Health

Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

Los Gatos, CA, June 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In the rapidly evolving world of oral care, LivFresh stands out as a breakthrough that merges clinically tested results with a refreshing user experience. From dental chairs to bathroom cabinets, LivFresh Dental Gel Toothpaste is quickly becoming a trusted name, earning confidence from healthcare professionals and everyday users alike. Backed by university-led studies and growing word-of-mouth traction, LivFresh is redefining the standards of plaque control and gum support in 2025.

The Science Behind LivFresh: What Makes This Dental Gel Different?

At the heart of LivFresh Dental Gel is a patented formulation developed by researchers at Livionex that disrupts plaque before it can bond to teeth and gums. Unlike conventional toothpaste, which relies on physical abrasives and foaming agents, LivFresh works at the molecular level—targeting the electrostatic attraction that causes plaque to stick. This scientific approach allows the gel to break down plaque-forming proteins without irritating gums or enamel.

What sets LivFresh apart is its clean formulation: no sodium lauryl sulfate, no triclosan, and no peroxide. Instead, the gel uses safe, non-toxic compounds that have been clinically shown to reduce plaque by over 250% compared to traditional toothpaste. These results aren’t marketing claims—they’re peer-reviewed and published in respected dental journals.

LivFresh is not only about prevention. It enhances overall oral hygiene by creating a surface on the teeth that is less likely to attract bacteria. This provides longer-lasting cleanliness and a smoother mouthfeel. In 2025, as consumers become more ingredient-conscious, LivFresh emerges as a standout in the category—where science leads and simplicity follows.

Dentist Approved: What Leading Oral Health Professionals Say About LivFresh

According to official website, Dental professionals are increasingly recommending LivFresh to patients concerned about plaque buildup, gum inflammation, and post-cleaning sensitivity. The appeal lies in its evidence-backed performance and its gentler, detergent-free formula. As oral health becomes more integrated into overall wellness, dentists are favoring products that support long-term gum health without harsh ingredients.

Dr. Andrea Peterson, DDS, a practicing periodontist in Seattle, remarks, “LivFresh is one of the few products I recommend daily. Its formulation shows real impact on oral biofilm and gingival inflammation. It’s more than a toothpaste—it’s a preventive tool.”

LivFresh’s rising credibility within clinical circles stems from the way it shifts the paradigm of oral care. It doesn’t just clean; it alters the environment in which bacteria thrive. That distinction is key for dental professionals treating patients with periodontal risk factors or sensitive oral conditions.

With more dental offices integrating LivFresh into their post-procedure care kits and hygienists noticing improved check-up results among regular users, this gel has firmly positioned itself as more than a trend—it’s a clinical ally. For practitioners focused on proactive care, LivFresh offers a research-driven alternative to traditional products.

Consumer Trust Grows: Why LivFresh Toothpaste Is Gaining Loyal Users Nationwide

LivFresh isn’t just winning over dentists—it’s gaining momentum with everyday users who demand more from their oral care. The feedback from consumers has been overwhelmingly positive, with many reporting fresher breath, smoother teeth, and visibly reduced plaque in just weeks of use.

Online forums like Reddit and dedicated oral health groups have helped spread the word organically. On platforms such as TikTok and Instagram, users are sharing before-and-after videos showcasing visibly cleaner teeth and improved gum health. One frequent sentiment: “It feels like I just left the dentist—every time I brush.”

LivFresh is especially popular among those with sensitive mouths, braces, or a history of gingivitis. Many users express relief that the gel doesn’t burn, foam aggressively, or contain irritating ingredients. Its gentle nature combined with clinical strength results has earned the brand a reputation for trustworthiness.

Repeat buyers now form the foundation of LivFresh’s growth, with subscription orders steadily increasing through the brand’s official site. In an age where consumer loyalty is earned, not assumed, LivFresh stands out by delivering a better brushing experience with verifiable benefits.

Clinical Trials and Safety Profile

LivFresh’s scientific credibility stems from its rigorous clinical validation. In multiple randomized controlled trials conducted by major dental schools, LivFresh Dental Gel demonstrated up to 2.5x greater plaque reduction compared to conventional fluoride toothpaste. These results were measured through precise plaque scoring systems used in periodontal studies.

Importantly, these studies also showed a marked reduction in gingival bleeding and inflammation, two major indicators of gum disease. Participants noted both subjective improvements—such as smoother teeth and less sensitivity—and measurable changes validated by dental professionals.

Safety has also been a core focus. LivFresh contains no artificial colors, sulfates, preservatives, or harsh foaming agents. Its active ingredients are considered Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA. The gel is also pH balanced to maintain the oral microbiome and reduce enamel erosion risk.

LivFresh’s formulation has passed toxicological assessments and dermatological tests, making it suitable for daily use, even among individuals with sensitive gums or a history of periodontal treatment. In a crowded marketplace where many products lean heavily on marketing, LivFresh’s clinical pedigree makes it a rare standout—delivering both performance and peace of mind.

How LivFresh Dental Gel Works

According to official website, The power of LivFresh Dental Gel lies in its ability to disrupt plaque at its earliest stage. Most toothpaste cleans reactively—scrubbing off existing buildup. LivFresh, on the other hand, prevents plaque from adhering to the teeth in the first place. It does this by neutralizing the electrostatic forces that allow proteins and bacteria to stick to enamel surfaces.

This mechanism targets the formation of oral biofilm, a key contributor to gingivitis and tooth decay. By halting this process before it starts, LivFresh reduces the bacteria load in the mouth while maintaining a healthy oral pH. The result is a cleaner mouth that stays fresh longer after each brushing session.

Unlike traditional pastes, LivFresh has a smooth gel consistency that coats the teeth more effectively, delivering consistent coverage and longer-lasting protection. It doesn’t foam unnecessarily, making it ideal for users with braces or implants.

The brushing experience is noticeably different—more like a protective treatment than a quick rinse. And that’s the point: LivFresh is designed not just to clean teeth, but to create a cleaner oral environment altogether. It’s preventive science in a tube.

LivFresh in the Media

As LivFresh gains popularity, its presence across media channels continues to grow. From dental trade journals to mainstream outlets, LivFresh is being recognized for its scientific integrity and consumer-driven design. The brand has been featured in publications such as Dentistry Today, Oral Health & Prevention, and Modern Wellness Review, often spotlighted for its innovation in plaque control.

Television segments and online health programs have also featured LivFresh, focusing on its appeal to users with gum sensitivity or post-procedure dental care. Influencers in the dental health space on TikTok and YouTube have praised the product, comparing it to professional cleanings—and showing real-time results.

The brand has also made appearances in medical blogs, where it’s described as “one of the few oral care products that bridges the gap between clinical research and everyday use.” LivFresh’s scientific studies have been cited by professionals and discussed at dental symposia.

Its rapid media traction is not the result of a massive advertising push—but rather, a ripple effect from scientific credibility and real user outcomes. In 2025, LivFresh is no longer a niche product—it’s a media-recognized player in the future of oral care.

Daily Use, Simple Routine

One of LivFresh’s biggest strengths lies in its simplicity. There’s no learning curve, no complicated dosing, and no prep time. Users simply brush twice daily with the gel—just as they would with any toothpaste. Yet the results are far beyond what traditional options offer.

The smooth texture spreads easily across the enamel, reaching difficult areas without the foaming overload. It’s particularly useful for people with dental appliances, gum sensitivity, or those recovering from deep cleanings or procedures.

The fresh, minty taste is clean without being overpowering, making it ideal for users of all ages. There’s no need for added rinses, special mouthwashes, or accompanying treatments. LivFresh integrates seamlessly into existing habits—whether you’re brushing in the morning rush or winding down at night.

Users report a lasting clean feeling that extends hours past brushing. For people accustomed to brushing after every meal or coffee, LivFresh provides lasting freshness and less buildup throughout the day. In short, it delivers professional-grade results with everyday convenience. That’s a combination most oral care brands simply don’t offer.

Eco-Conscious Innovation

In a market increasingly driven by sustainability, LivFresh Dental Gel stands out not only for its science but also for its commitment to environmentally responsible practices. The brand has minimized the use of unnecessary packaging, opting for recyclable materials and reduced plastic where possible.

The formula itself is free from harsh detergents, parabens, triclosan, and microbeads—ingredients commonly found in mainstream toothpaste that can harm aquatic ecosystems. LivFresh is also 100% cruelty-free, never tested on animals, and free from any animal-derived ingredients.

In 2025, eco-conscious consumers are no longer satisfied with effectiveness alone. They want brands that align with their values. LivFresh has responded by building sustainability into its product and operations without compromising on clinical outcomes.

From its low-impact manufacturing process to shipping practices aimed at reducing emissions, LivFresh is contributing to a cleaner mouth and a cleaner planet. For consumers balancing health with environmental responsibility, this dental gel offers both. It’s a step forward in oral care—without stepping backward on sustainability.

Where to Buy LivFresh in 2025

To ensure authenticity and optimal results, LivFresh recommends purchasing directly from its official website. This not only guarantees product integrity but also provides access to the brand’s subscription savings, trial kits, and periodic clinical updates. In 2025, online demand continues to rise, and LivFresh has scaled its logistics to offer fast, secure delivery across the U.S.

While select dental offices may carry LivFresh, the company warns against purchasing from unauthorized third-party sellers on platforms like eBay or unofficial Amazon listings. Counterfeit and expired products can undermine the gel’s performance and safety profile.

First-time buyers can often take advantage of bundled offers or risk-free guarantees on the official site, making it easy to try the product without commitment. LivFresh also offers customer support channels for brushing tips, subscription adjustments, and reordering reminders.

In a category prone to overpromising and underdelivering, LivFresh prioritizes transparency, education, and safety from purchase to brushing. For those looking to experience clinically validated oral care from a trusted source, direct access remains the best and most reliable option.

Closing Summary: Is LivFresh Worth Watching?

As 2025 unfolds, LivFresh is proving that oral care can be both clinically advanced and consumer-friendly. With endorsements from dental professionals, strong results from published studies, and a growing fanbase of loyal users, LivFresh Dental Gel Toothpaste is no longer just an alternative—it’s a frontrunner.

Its science-first formulation challenges the assumptions of what a toothpaste should do. By preventing plaque before it sticks and reducing inflammation without harsh ingredients, LivFresh brings real innovation to a space long dominated by outdated formulas.

Consumers value its safety. Dentists value its efficacy. And the media is taking notice.

For those seeking a smarter way to care for their teeth—without sacrificing simplicity or sustainability—LivFresh is more than just a dental gel. It’s a sign of where oral health is headed. And yes, it’s absolutely worth watching.

MIL-OSI Analysis: Why energy markets fluctuate during an international crisis

Source: The Conversation – USA – By Skip York, Nonresident Fellow in Energy and Global Oil, Baker Institute for Public Policy, Rice University

Stock and commodities traders found themselves dealing with various price swings as energy markets responded to Israeli and U.S. attacks on Iran. Timothy A. Clary/AFP via Getty Imagesf

Global energy markets, such as those for oil, gas and coal, tend to be sensitive to a wide range of world events – especially when there is some sort of crisis. Having worked in the energy industry for over 30 years, I’ve seen how war, political instability, pandemics and economic sanctions can significantly disrupt energy markets and impede them from functioning efficiently.

A look at the basics

First, consider the economic fundamentals of supply and demand. The risk most people imagine in the current crisis between Israel, the U.S. and Iran is that Iran, which is itself a major oil-producing country, might suddenly expand the conflict by threatening the ability of neighboring countries to supply oil to the world.

Oil wells, refineries, pipelines and shipping lanes are the backbone of energy markets. They can be vulnerable during a crisis: Whether there is deliberate sabotage or collateral damage from military action, energy infrastructure often takes a hit.

For instance, after Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait in August 1990, Iraqi forces placed explosive charges on Kuwaiti oil wells and began detonating them in January 1991. It took months for all the resulting fires to be put out, and millions of barrels of oil and hundreds of millions of cubic meters of natural gas were released into the environment – rather than being sold and used productively somewhere around the world.

Scenes of Kuwaiti life during and after the Gulf War of 1990 and 1991 include images of oil wells burning as a result of Iraqi sabotage.

Logistics can mess markets up too. For instance, closing critical maritime routes like the Strait of Hormuz or the Suez Canal can cause transportation delays.

Whether supply is lost from decreased production or blocked transportation routes, the effect is less oil available to the market, which not only causes prices to rise in general, but it also makes them more volatile – tending to change more frequently and by larger amounts.

On the flip side, demand can also shift radically. During the 1990-1991 Gulf War, demand rose: U.S. forces alone used more than 2 billion gallons of fuel, according to an Army analysis. By contrast, during the COVID-19 pandemic, industries shut down, travel came to a halt and energy demand plummeted.

When crisis looms, countries and companies often start stockpiling oil and other raw materials rather than buying only what they need right now. That creates even more imbalance, resulting in price volatility that leaves everyone, both consumers and producers, with a headache.

Regional considerations

In addition to uncertainties around market fundamentals, it’s important to note that many of the world’s energy reserves are located in regions that have not been models of stability. In the Middle East, wars, revolutions and diplomatic disputes there can raise concerns about supply, demand or both.

Those worries send shock waves through the world’s energy markets. It’s like walking on a tightrope: One wrong move – or even the perception of a misstep – can make the market wobble.

Governments’ economic sanctions, such as those restricting trade with Iran, Russia or Venezuela, can distort production and investment decisions and disrupt trade flows. Sometimes markets react even before sanctions are officially in place: Just the rumor of a possible embargo can cause prices to spike as buyers scramble to secure resources.

In 2008, for example, India and Vietnam imposed rice export bans, and rumors of additional restrictions fueled panic buying and nearly doubled prices in months.

In those scrambles, the role of investor speculation enters the picture. Energy commodities, such as oil and gas, aren’t just physical resources; they’re also traded as financial assets like stocks and bonds. During uncertain times, traders don’t wait around for actual changes in supply and demand. They react to news and forecasts, sometimes in large groups, which can shift the market just with the actions that result from their fears or hopes.

The events on June 22, 2025, are a good example of how this dynamic works. The Iranian parliament passed a resolution authorizing the country’s Supreme Council to close the Strait of Hormuz. Immediately, oil prices started rising, even though the strait was still open, with oil tankers steaming through unimpeded.

The next day, Iran launched a missile strike on Qatar, but coordinated in advance with Qatari officials to minimize damage and casualties. Traders and analysts perceived the action as a de-escalatory signal and anticipated that the Supreme Council was not going to close the strait. So prices started to fall.

It was a price roller coaster, fueled by speculation rather than reality. And computer algorithms and artificial intelligence, which assist in making automated trades, only add to the chaos of price changes.

Shipping activity in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz decreased after Israel’s attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities.

A broader look

International crises can also cause wider changes in countries’ economies – or the global economy as a whole – which in turn affect the energy market.

If a crisis sparks a recession, rising inflation or high unemployment, those tend to cause people and businesses to use less energy. When the underlying situation stabilizes, recovery efforts can mean energy consumption resumes. But it’s like a pendulum swinging back and forth, with energy markets caught in the middle.

Renewable energy is not immune to international crisis and chaos. The supply is less affected by market forces: The amount of available sunlight and wind isn’t tied to geopolitical relations. But overall economic conditions still affect demand, and a crisis can disrupt the supply chains for the equipment needed to harness renewable energy, like solar panels and wind turbines.

It’s no wonder energy markets are so jittery during international crises. A mix of imbalances between supply and demand, vulnerable infrastructure, political tensions, corporate worries and speculative trading all weave together into a complex web of volatility.

For policymakers, investors and consumers, understanding these dynamics is key to navigating the ups and downs of energy markets in a crisis-prone world. The solutions aren’t simple, but being informed is the first step toward stability.
