Baba Vanga's 2025-26 economic crisis warning - Is Donald Trump's trade war making it real?

Time of India5 days ago
Baba Vanga prediction 2025: Baba Vanga, the famous Bulgarian mystic, is believed to have accurately predicted some of the world's biggest events, including the 9/11 World Trade Centre attacks and the tragic death of Princess Diana. Among her many forecasts, she also warned of a major economic crisis between 2025 and 2026.
Considering the recent trade moves by US President Donald Trump, many now believe this prediction could be on its way to becoming a reality. Trump has recently signed trade agreements with several countries, but at the same time, he has introduced average tariffs of around 20%. For Brazil and India, the tariff rate has been set as high as 50%, shaking global markets and creating uncertainty.
Trump's Tough Stance on India
Trump, who has often called himself a 'friend' of India, has now taken a strict approach. Not only has he imposed a 50% tariff on Indian goods, but he has also warned of penalties if India continues to buy oil from Russia. Experts say this move could hit India's energy supply and disrupt its import-export balance, leading to economic pressure.
Targeting BRICS Nations
The BRICS group – which includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa – has also been a target of Trump's sharp comments. He has repeatedly questioned the trade and economic policies of these countries, sparking further tension in the global trade environment. Analysts believe such aggressive remarks and actions could make international trade relations even more fragile.
Global Markets React with Volatility
Following these announcements, global stock markets have seen sharp fluctuations. Investors are becoming more cautious, and many national currencies are under pressure. Market experts warn that if this tariff conflict drags on, it could push the world towards the kind of economic crisis Baba Vanga warned about for 2026.
Will Baba Vanga's 2026 Crisis Prediction Come True?
Over the years, Baba Vanga's predictions have sparked debate, fascination, and fear. While not all her forecasts have been proven, the unfolding trade tensions have made many wonder if her warning about a massive financial downturn could soon become a reality. The coming months will show whether the world is heading towards one of the most challenging economic periods in recent history.

Trump-Putin Alaska meeting began with an applause, a handshake, then an unexpected ride on the ‘Beast'

The high-stakes Donald Trump and Vladimir Putn in Anchorage, Alaska stared with a scripted opening — both leaders deboarding their respective aircraft, smiling, and shaking each other's hands warmly on the tarmac. Pats on the arm followed by a military overfly greeted the world. But then things changed. Putin was suddenly seen slipping into the back of Trump's Presidential armed limousine 'the Beast', where Bloomberg reported that they held a minutes-long conversation — the first substantial talk in six years — outside the earshot of their aides, media, and other officials. The short ride from the tarmac to the summit room at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, a US military facility, took less than 10 minutes. But it gave both leaders the chance for the most private of conversations at a meeting the whole world is watching and studying intensely. It was unclear whether their ride together was planned, or a last-second improvisation by the pair. The White House didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. On a podium moments earlier, Trump and Putin posed for photographs as reporters shouted out questions. One yelled whether Putin would 'still be killing civilians' but the Russian president pointed to his ear and shook his head that he couldn't hear. Trump then called time and gestured for Putin to walk with him toward the vehicle. The Russian leader was captured by the cameras smiling through the window as it drew away. The Russian presidential limousine stood nearby. A blue-walled room was set up for the talks, adorned with American and Russian flags. Next to Trump were an interpreter, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and US envoy Steve Witkoff. On Putin's side, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov. Shortly before 11:30 a.m. local time, the formal summit began. At stake: the future of Ukraine, peace in Europe, and the economies of Russia and its trading partners, under threat of increased US financial penalties if talks fail. In practice, the actual discussions had already started. Only Trump and Putin may know what was said.

July liquor sales hit by 50% rise in excise duty

Mumbai: Liquor sales dropped significantly in July compared to the first quarter of the 2025-26 financial year on the back of a 50% hike in excise duty in the last week of June. Representational image (Getty Images) The hike pushed up prices of Indian made foreign liquor (IMFL) and country liquor by nearly 60% and 20% respectively, while sales of IMFL and country liquor in July dropped by 10.9% and 9.70% respectively compared to average monthly sales in the April to June quarter. Beer sales, generally low during the monsoon months, too registered a 30% dip in July. Officials from the excise department, however, said the dip in sales would not affect revenues as the quantum of increase in excise duty was much more than the hike in retail prices. 'Our additional revenue target for the 2025-26 financial year was ₹14,000 crore,' said an excise department official requesting anonymity. 'Since the implementation started at the fag end of the first quarter, we expect to generate ₹10,500 during the remainder of the financial year despite a further dip in sales likely in August, when the old stock with lower prices is completely exhausted from the market.' Another official from the department said they expect IMFL consumers to shift to Maharashtra Made Liquor (MML), a new category introduced by the state government to promote domestic manufacturers. 'The excise duty on MML has been kept significantly low to give them a level-playing field,' the official said. However, Sanjit Padhi , chief executive officer of the International Spirits and Wines Association of India (ISWAI) said the shift to MML would hit revenue collection and the government would fall short of its target for the year. 'We reiterate that the rise in prices needs to be reviewed at the earliest,' Padhi said. Vinod Giri, director general, Brewers Association of India, said sales of beer were likely to go up significantly later this month and in September as older stocks of IMFL with lower prices get exhausted. 'We had a mild summer and good monsoon this year so beer sales were hit significantly,' he said.
