European Union leaders on Thursday debated a new “European Competitiveness Deal” aimed at helping the 27-nation bloc close the gap with Chinese and American rivals amid fears the region's industries will otherwise be left behind for good. In a volatile geopolitical landscape redefined by the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine and increasing tensions in the Middle East that create new economic challenges, EU leaders believe there is an urgent need for action. China, the U.S. and the European Union are the three largest economies in the world, but the EU's share has diminished over the past 30 years.
Euro zone bond yields dipped on Thursday, pulling back slightly from recent highs, as expectations of a June rate cut by the European Central Bank held firm and a recent surge in oil prices showed signs of losing steam. ECB policymakers continued to line up behind a June interest rate reduction, but markets now see just three rate cuts this year, a big retreat from two months ago when between four and five moves were expected.

In the months to the run-up, the BJP has snared the largest share of reservations for domestic private helicopters to fly its leaders to all corners of the far-flung nation, an industry official said.
The prime minister's personal rating has also cratered to the same level as Jeremy Corbyn and John Major.
There's scarcely any critical evaluation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on India's mainstream television channels and most newspapers as the world's most populous nation heads toward a general election that begins on Friday. India's once-in-five-years election usually draws fiery debate and mudslinging across its sprawling media. YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has accused Modi of behaving like a dictator in a Hindi-language video that has over 27 million views, citing what he called silencing of critics, the use of federal investigation agencies to browbeat the opposition and the crushing of farmer protests.
She may have understated the allegations just a touch.
