The U.S. and its allies have stressed a desire to "de-risk,” not "decouple,” from the Chinese economy as a way to explain a slew of new trade restrictions on Beijing. The problem is, for China there’s no difference. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/05/30/business/economy-business/us-derisking-decoupling-china/?utm_content=bufferfd32c&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #news #economy #china #europe #us #trade #eu #chipmakers #supplychains #economicsecurity #tech

Russia has reached an impasse in Bakhmut, — The Wall Street Journal

Analyzing the available facts, the publication notes that the ten-month storming of Bakhmut led to the complete exhaustion of the invaders and deprived them of the opportunity to advance. The WSJ added that "Russia is at a dead end" and will soon lose the city it won by slaughter.

#EU #Europe #Trains #Railways #Transportation: "Largely due to increased environmental awareness – as well as the reframing of slow overland journeys as enjoyable rather than endurable – this sleeper train revival is chugging healthily. Austria’s Nightjet now serves 25 European cities, and next year France’s Midnight Trains will launch luxury sleepers to 10 destinations.

European Sleeper’s Brussels to Berlin route runs three times a week each way and stops at Amsterdam and Rotterdam. The new line by the Dutch-Belgian startup is the first direct overnight train route between the Belgian and German capitals in more than a decade.

It’s now possible to jump on a two-hour Eurostar from London’s St Pancras station to Brussels-Midi station on a Friday afternoon, then catch the evening European Sleeper from the same Brussels station, and be in Berlin for breakfast. Leaving Berlin on Sunday night, you can again connect with Eurostar in Brussels and arrive in London Monday lunchtime, after a full weekend of Berlin culture/chaos."

The announcement of Twitter’s withdrawal from the code would come as little surprise to those involved in the voluntary pledge. Since Elon Musk took over the tech company in October, he slashed entire departments, including those responsible for content moderation, to cut costs.

“I was waiting for this. It was purely a matter of time,” an EU official told EURACTIV under the condition of anonymity, adding that Twitter’s eventual withdrawal might be the end of a headache for the Commission, given the platform’s lack of compliance."
