The reason the Fed keeps interest rates ‘high’ is because of the inflation caused by your #tariffs, Donald. You appointed Powell in 2017, and he’s just doing his job. Look at Turkey to see where meddling with central banks will bring you. Now, back to your ballroom and hands off the global economy.

The presence of Dutch representatives at a US-led critical minerals shindig probably has something to do with #ASML. Hope #Ukraine is also there, not to rob them of their wealth but to allow them to do honest business, while shielding the #Donbas region from further Russian invasion. #UA

Don’t do it, Volodymyr, it’s a bad idea. You may have your flaws, but this is just the kind of destabilization that Putin desires. You can - deservedly - retire once the war is over, and only then when the conditions of peace are acceptable to Ukraine. #Zelensky #NoDistractions #Elections #UA

高市早苗様、
自民党総裁選のご勝利、誠におめでとうございます。
これから総理大臣として、日本、地域、そして世界のために尽力されることを願っております。
まずはナショナリズム的な傾向を脇に置かれることから始めていただければ幸いです。

Sending out some love and moral support to Japanese PM Ishiba Shigeru, in the hope that he can change his (full) party’s and country’s stance towards WW2 in for the better, to something that resembles Germany’s. A healthy and respectful attitude towards past aggression is a must-do. がんばれ日本!#VJDay

Mathieu, als jij nou een keer de Tour de France uitrijdt, dan wil ik voor de lol wel eens jouw dure shampoo in mijn haar smeren, deal? #MvdP #TourdeFrance #Alpecin

‘Bruised but motivated’. I’m deeply impressed by Zelensky’s indefatigable motivation to drag himself over to the White House. This time, Volodymyr, bring a copy of the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, signed by the US, re/ security guarantees, and make sure the camera’s are rolling. #SlavaUkraïna

That’s it for me from the #HouseOfSwitzerland at WEF2025, Davos. Thanks Poland for co-hosting (with the Swiss) a dialogue about the #Polish presidency of the #EUCouncil for H1/2025. The best in wisdom, strength and leadership to the Poles and president #Tusk.

Ready for last day of #WEF2025, again from the #PFP Health Equality Action Lounge #HEAL with delegates from #ISPOR, talking about my special interest area: early access & compassionate use programs (EAP/CUPs). Yesterday’s picture shows panel discussion about pediatric/geriatric care in LMIC. #Davos

I don’t usually read the #WSJ, but when I do it’s upon visiting #WEF in #Davos, Switzerland (and getting a free copy😏). It’s been another inspiring day with the amazing people from #PartnersForPatients and the very diverse, smart and humble ‘American’ delegation from #ISPOR . Thank you all! #PFPorg
