Monday SITREP: Global Ratings

EU Tariff Cooperation Plans, Gaza Children Killed in Water Queue, Trump Promises Ukraine Patriots, Former Nigerian President Buhari Dies

Good morning.

🇪🇺 EU Plans Increased Cooperation With Tariff-Hit Nations

The EU is preparing to step up engagement with other countries hit by Trump's tariffs, including potential coordination with Canada and Japan, as talks with the US remain stuck on cars and agriculture. European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen extended suspension of €21 billion in countermeasures until August 1, while preparing €72 billion in additional penalties if negotiations fail. Goldman Sachs estimates Trump's proposed 30% EU tariff would lower eurozone GDP by 1.2% through 2026, as the bloc seeks deals capped at 10% on agricultural exports while focusing talks on automotive tariffs.

🇵🇸 Gaza Children Killed in Water Queue

Ten people including six children were killed while waiting to fill water containers in central Gaza's Nuseirat refugee camp, with the Israeli military admitting a "technical error" caused a munition to fall dozens of meters from its intended target. Eyewitnesses said a drone fired at crowds queuing with jerry cans next to a water tanker, while the Red Cross reported treating more mass casualty cases in six weeks than the previous 12 months. The UN has recorded 789 aid-related killings since May 27, with 615 near controversial US-Israeli backed distribution sites where security contractors operate in military zones. More - BBC

🇺🇦 Trump Promises Ukraine Patriots

President Trump said the US will send Patriot missile systems to Ukraine because they are "desperately" needed against intensifying Russian air strikes, with European allies paying 100% of the costs. Trump expressed growing frustration with Putin, saying "he talks nice and then he bombs everybody in the evening" ahead of Monday's meeting with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte and a promised "major announcement" on Russia. Ukraine's Zelensky has pleaded for 10 Patriot systems as Russia escalates its air war with record numbers of upgraded Iranian-designed drones and hypersonic missiles that only Patriots can intercept.

🇳🇬 Nigerian Ex-President Buhari Dies

Nigeria's former President Muhammadu Buhari died in London at age 82 following a prolonged illness, President Bola Tinubu's spokesperson announced Sunday. Buhari made history in 2015 as the first opposition candidate to defeat a sitting president in Nigeria's modern era, but his eight-year presidency struggled with economic mismanagement and rising insecurity. Despite promising to defeat Boko Haram, armed violence spread nationwide under his tenure, while his insistence on maintaining a strong naira led to multiple exchange rates and two recessions, though he maintained a reputation for personal integrity in a corruption-prone political climate.
