India's Modi visits Croatia with EU trade on agenda
ZAGREB: Narendra Modi will visit Croatia on Wednesday, the first time an Indian prime minister has toured the Balkan nation, in a sign of increasing ties with the European Union. Modi will visit the EU member on his way back from the G7 Summit in Canada, following an earlier stop in Cyprus. Croatian newspaper Vecernji List reported on Tuesday that a key focus of discussions will be a proposed trade route between Europe, the Middle East and India -- an investment touted to rival Beijing's Belt and Road Initiative. 'As the first visit by an Indian prime minister to Croatia, it will open new avenues for bilateral cooperation,' Modi said in a statement ahead of the trip. He will meet Croatian counterpart Andrej Plenkovic and President Zoran Milanovic in Zagreb during a visit that was initially scheduled for mid-May, but got pushed back because of an escalation in tensions between India and Pakistan. European leaders are increasingly looking to other trading partners in response to US President Donald Trump's imposition of tariffs on the bloc, which are now flagged to increase in July. The EU is India's second-largest trading partner, accounting for 120 billion euros (US$138 billion) worth of trade in goods in 2024 -- more than 11 percent of total Indian trade, according to the EU. First proposed in 2023, the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor would be a railway and maritime route linking the regions and is seen as a potential counter to growing Chinese investment. Although trade between India and Croatia remains relatively small, Croatia, suffering from a chronic workforce shortage, has been attracting more Indian workers. China has pumped billions of dollars into the Balkans in recent years to expand its economic footprint in central Europe.

Vietnam's Vietjet orders 100 Airbus A321neo planes
LE BOURGET, France: Vietnamese carrier Vietjet has ordered 100 single-aisle A321neo jets from Airbus, the European plane maker said Tuesday (June 17) in the latest deal announced at the Paris Air Show. The deal would be worth almost US$13 billion under 2018 catalogue prices. It includes an option for Vietjet, Vietnam's largest private airline, to buy a further 50 of the jets at a later date. "This new agreement marks a significant milestone in our strategic partnership with Airbus," said Vietjet chairwoman Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao. "These modern and efficient aircraft have been instrumental in Vietjet's growth, helping us make air travel more accessible and affordable for millions, while strengthening our role as a connector for economic development, cultural exchange and global connectivity," she added. Airbus executive vice president Benoit de Saint-Exupery noted the deal followed hot on the heels of a new order by Vietjet for 20 A330neo widebody aircraft. "Together the A321neo and A330neo will be perfect partners for Vietjet to continue to spread its wings, efficiently matching capacity more closely to demand across its network," he said in a statement. Vietjet operates a fleet of more than 100 Airbus aircraft. As of the end of May, more than 7,000 A321neo aircraft -- the largest of Airbus' best-selling A320neo family -- have been ordered by over 90 customers worldwide, Airbus said. The Vietjet deal came a day after Airbus announced orders for a total of more than 100 planes from Saudi companies Riyadh Air and AviLease and Polish airline LOT. Those deals were worth nearly $20 billion at 2018 catalogue prices -- which Airbus has since phased out, as final sale prices vary according to contract terms and the version of an aircraft. Airbus rival Boeing has meanwhile said its focus at the Paris Air Show is on "supporting customers" after the Air India crash last week. - AFP

Ringgit almost flat vs US dollar amid ongoing Middle East conflict
KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit ended nearly flat against the US dollar on Tuesday as investors stayed cautious amid the ongoing military conflict in the Middle East. At 6 pm, the local note stood at 4.2390/2475 versus the greenback compared to yesterday's close of 4.2370/2450. Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd chief economist Dr Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid said the ringgit-greenback pair continued to trade sideways during the day. He said similarly, the US Dollar Index (DXY) remained below 100 points while Brent crude oil prices fell 0.46 per cent to US$72.89 per barrel. He explained that although geopolitical risks have increased, the impact on financial markets remains relatively manageable, at least for the time being. "The Middle East situation will continue to be on traders' and investors' radar in the immediate term,' he told Bernama. Looking ahead, Mohd Afzanizam said the US Federal Reserve's future monetary policy decisions would also be influenced by tariff-related shocks. At the close, the ringgit traded higher against a basket of major currencies. It rose versus the Japanese yen to 2.9271/9332 from 2.9397/9455 at Monday's close, strengthened against the British pound to 5.7413/7528 from 5.7555/7664 yesterday, and increased vis-à-vis the euro to 4.8986/9084 from 4.9077/9170 previously. The ringgit was also stronger against its ASEAN peers. It edged up versus the Indonesian rupiah to 260.2/260.8 from 260.4/261.2 on Monday and rose against the Philippine peso to 7.48/7.49 from 7.51/7.53 yesterday. The local currency also gained against the Singapore dollar to 3.3068/3137 from 3.3102/3167 at the previous close and firmed vis-a-vis the Thai baht to 13.0114/0443 from 13.0389/0696 previously. - Bernama
