Trump: Russia not taking over #Ukraine is a concession
In 1938 @ Munich, Hitler made a concession too: GER will not occupy the rest of Czechoslovakia but Czechoslovakia has to cede the Sudetenland to the Reich.
Germany occupied Czechoslovakia anyway 6 months later. Then we had WW2

Vance says there is ceasefire in #Ukraine. In reality, Russia attacks Ukrainian cities every day.
Instead of reading "stories" about Ukraine, Vance should accept Zelensky's invitation and come to Ukraine to see things first hand. Plus reception may be less chilly than in Greenland.

Witkoff says RUS will not attack Europe because there is NATO and so Europe feels safe.
Yes, this is why Europe wants to spend 800 billion euros on defense.

In short, randomized controlled trials show that macroeconomic uncertainty inhibits econ activity
Economic Policy Uncertainty index is now higher than it was during COVID.

From the Economist:
A huge majority (74%) of Ukrainians favour fighting on even without US support. A clear majority (59% v 21%) say they believe #Ukraine can still win on the battlefield, in contrast to American officials such as Marco Rubio, the US sec of state, who say it can't.

10 year ago, Oli Coibion ( @empctmacrotx.bsky.social ) and I had a paper in AEJ Macro about inflation expectations in the U.S. (www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...). We found that oil/gasoline prices strongly predict inflation expectations. This "iron law" continues to hold.
