Deep tensions surrounding the hostage talks. Egypt has put together a package to get 33 hostages (some reports have fewer, some more) in a temporary deal. The ceasefire would last one day per hostage. Because of the coming Rafah attack, there is an actual chance Hamas say yes.…
Fascinating piece on the gatekeepers to the UAE’s top echelons of power: One Abu Dhabi royal controls a massive pile of private and state assets—and his gatekeepers can make or break a deal bloomberg.com/news/features/… via @business
Suspect Ras al-Hikma was behind #Egypt budget deficit for 23/24 expected to come in at just 4% of GDP (primary surplus 5.8%). Check out p.145: misc other revenue expected to be £E552bn, compared with budget of E£79bn. Probably proceeds of land sale.
2/ According to this excellent story in @business, 🇷🇺 government expects to earn 28% less in 🇨🇳 market for same amounts of gas than in EU & Turkey. For example, in 2024 it's $257 vs $320 for 1,000 m2. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

There is years of accumulated evidence that this particular unit behaves like a far-right militia in army uniform, dominated by extreme settlers (some of them with criminal records) who commit regular crimes against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. axios.com/2024/04/20/us-…

Keep an eye on Chinese oil output -- yes, output. Chinese oil production in March came at a ~4.35m b/d, just below the all-time high set in June 2015. And a fresh record high is likely later this year. I wrote this @opinion column last year about it. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
I found this new @BelferCenter report from @Abdulkhaleq_UAE very compelling. He argues that there's a coherent "Khaleeiji" model of political and economic development in the GCC and makes a bullish case that the "Gulf moment" will last for years to come. belfercenter.org/sites/default/…
Unsurprising, but still very important: "Gas prices in continental Europe, especially in Germany, are structurally higher now, because we, in the end, depend on LNG imports," said Markus Krebber, CEO of RWE. "The German industry has a disadvantage" ft.com/content/5d98bc…
