Erdogan: Syrian Stability Benefits the Region

By Ahmad El-Assasy Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has praised recent moves by the European Union and the United States to lift sanctions on Syria, stating that restoring stability in the war-torn country would benefit its neighbours and the wider region. In a televised address following a weekly cabinet meeting in Ankara, Erdogan said: "We are very pleased with the decision by European countries to lift sanctions on Syria, following the game-changing statements by U.S. President Donald Trump." Erdogan emphasized that peace and stability in Syria would serve the interests of all neighbouring countries and regional powers, signalling a shift toward greater diplomatic and economic engagement. He also revealed that Syrian Airlines is preparing to resume flights to Turkey, while Turkey's AnadoluJet will soon launch scheduled flights to Syrian destinations. The remarks come amid signs of increasing regional efforts to re-integrate Syria into the international fold after more than a decade of conflict and diplomatic isolation. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier

ECB Preview: How many more cuts should we expect?

By Daniela Sabin Hathorn, senior market analyst at The European Central Bank (ECB) will hold its next monetary policy meeting on Thursday, June 5, with markets widely anticipating another interest rate cut. Interest Rate Outlook: At its most recent meeting in April, the ECB reduced its key interest rates by 25 basis points, bringing the deposit facility rate to 2.25%. Markets are now pricing in another cut in June, though expectations for further easing beyond that remain uncertain. A potential pause in July is gaining traction, as the ECB evaluates incoming economic data and inflation dynamics. Source: refinitiv Economic Considerations: The ECB's policy decisions hinge on maintaining a stable balance between inflation control and supporting economic growth. Inflation in the Eurozone is projected to ease further throughout 2025. The preliminary May CPI reading, due two days before the meeting, is forecast by Reuters to show headline inflation falling to the ECB's 2% target. A confirmation of this decline would likely reinforce the case for another rate cut. However, given the central bank has already eased rates by 175 basis points over the past year, divergence within the Governing Council has emerged. Some members advocate for caution, signalling that the timing and pace of further rate cuts are still subject to debate. On the growth front, the Eurozone faces headwinds from global trade tensions and subdued consumer demand. Rising mortgage payments are already prompting households to cut spending or dip into savings, posing a risk to overall consumption. However, recent GDP data indicates modest resilience, with quarterly growth picking up modestly over the past year. The ECB has also stressed the importance of structural financial reforms and joint EU-level investments, particularly in defence and technology, to enhance long-term economic stability. Market Implications: Investors will be closely parsing the ECB's language for signals on the future path of interest rates. A dovish stance, including a June rate cut with a signal of continued easing, would likely boost European equities, especially rate-sensitive sectors, as lower yields make stocks more attractive than bonds. In currency markets, a dovish ECB would likely weaken the euro, especially against the US dollar, given expectations that the Federal Reserve will hold rates steady for longer. This could extend recent downside pressure on EUR/USD. Conversely: If the ECB cuts rates but expresses concern about lingering inflation risks, this could unsettle equity markets while offering some support to the euro. A hawkish stance, involving either no rate cut or messaging that downplays further easing, may pressure equities but could strengthen EUR/USD, particularly if the ECB expresses greater confidence in the Eurozone's economic resilience. Conclusion: The ECB's June meeting will be a pivotal moment in determining the trajectory of monetary policy for the second half of 2025. With inflation nearing target and economic signals still mixed, the central bank must carefully navigate the trade-off between supporting growth and anchoring price stability.

Policy Shortcomings Puts SAF Production at Risk - Middle East Business News and Information

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced that it expects Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production to reach 2 million tonnes (Mt) (2.5 billion liters) or 0.7% of airlines' total fuel consumption in 2025. 'While it is encouraging that SAF production is expected to double to 2 million tonnes in 2025, that is just 0.7% of aviation's total fuel needs. And even that relatively small amount will add $4.4 billion globally to the fuel bill. The pace of progress in ramping up production and gaining efficiencies to reduce costs must accelerate,' said Willie Walsh, IATA's Director General. The Problem with the Use of Mandates: Most SAF is now heading toward Europe, where the EU and UK mandates kicked in on 1 January 2025. Unacceptably, the cost of SAF to airlines has now doubled in Europe because of compliance fees that SAF producers or suppliers are charging. For the expected one million tonnes of SAF that will be purchased to meet the European mandates in 2025, the expected cost at current market prices is $1.2 billion. Compliance fees are estimated to add an additional $1.7 billion on top of market prices—an amount that could have abated an additional 3.5 million tonnes of carbon emissions. Instead of promoting the use of SAF, Europe's SAF mandates have made SAF five times more costly than conventional jet fuel. 'This highlights the problem with the implementation of mandates before there are sufficient market conditions and before safeguards are in place against unreasonable market practices that raise the cost of decarbonization. Raising the cost of the energy transition that is already estimated to be a staggering $4.7 trillion should not be the aim or the result of decarbonization policies. Europe needs to realize that its approach is not working and find another way,' said Walsh. IATA's Role in Supporting the Development of a Global SAF Market To support the development of a global SAF market, IATA has worked on two initiatives: A SAF registry managed by the Civil Aviation Decarbonization Organization (CADO) that brings a transparent and standardized system for tracking SAF purchases, usage and associated emissions reductions in compliance with international regulations such as Carbon Offsetting Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) and the EU Emissions Trading Scheme. The SAF Matchmaker that will facilitate SAF procurement by matching airline requests for SAF with supply offers. Urgent Action by Governments Is Needed IATA urges governments to focus on three areas: Creating more effective policies. Eliminating the disadvantage that renewable energy producers face compared with big oil is necessary to scale renewable energy production in general and SAF production in particular. This includes redirecting a portion of the $1 trillion in subsidies that governments globally grant for fossil fuel. Develop a comprehensive approach to energy policy that includes SAF. Firstly, advancing SAF production requires an increase in renewable energy production from which SAF is derived. Secondly, it also requires policies to ensure SAF is allocated an appropriate portion of renewable energy production. A wholistic approach should support joint use of infrastructure, co-production and other measures that will benefit the energy transition for aviation and for all other economic sectors. Ensure the success of CORSIA as the sole market-based mechanism to address international aviation's CO2 emissions. IATA urges governments to make Eligible Emissions Units (EEUs) available to airlines. To date Guyana is the only state to have made their carbon credits available for airlines to purchase and claim against their CORSIA obligations. Focus on India: India, one of the emerging economies on the world stage today, is the third-largest oil user after the US and China. India launched the Global Biofuels Alliance to position biofuels as a key to energy transition and economic growth. This includes a target for 2% SAF blending for international flights by 2028 with enabling policies such as guaranteed pricing, capital support for new projects, and technical standards. IATA will be working with the Indian Sugar & Bio-Energy Manufacturers Association (ISMA) and Praj Industries Limited, to provide guidance on global best practices for life cycle assessment of the use of feedstocks in the country. As the third-largest global civil aviation market, India can strengthen its leadership in biofuels with the accelerated adoption of SAF through progressive policies.
