When Liberals Kill, G7 Suicide Pact, Dollarmageddon Multipolarity

    • Politiek

The assassination attempt on Robert Fico has left Europe bemused. 
 
Shouldn’t it have left Europe stunned?    
 
In an age where condemnation of violent rhetoric has never been fiercer, it seems condemnation of actual violence has seldom been milder.  
 
As we move into a more fractious and populist age, what are the implications of the media’s seemingly divergent views on who it is and is not acceptable to assassinate?          

The G7 are meeting in Italy - just after Joe Biden dropped his massive package of trade tariffs onto China. 

So in the spirit of “never interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake”, are the Europeans going to clap as he blows America’s head off?  

Nope — turns out they’re going to join him. We’ll be reporting from the G7 suicide pact. 

New figures say that China has dialled down its US government bond holdings by $53 billion in the first quarter of this year. Last week, we gave you the full doomsday 2025 scenario for when the Yuan stops backstopping America. Today we’re giving you the real world here and now version. The long slow slide goes on.
