🇪🇺❌🇧🇪 The EU is warning Belgium it could face the same cold shoulder treatment as Hungary if PM Bart De Wever blocks the €210B Ukraine loan.

📝 Dries van Langenhove: For over a decade, Belgium has been leading the charge against Hungary and the Visegrad countries for their defiance of E.U. dictates, especially on migration.

Now, Belgium itself will get the Hungary treatment because it refuses to confiscate Russian assets at Euroclear.

🇲🇽❌🇨🇳🇧🇷 — Mexico announces tariffs reaching 50% for China, Brazil and other countries

➡️ The Mexican Congress, controlled by President Sheinbaum's MORENA Party, approved a new package of tariffs reaching 50% on imports from Brazil, China, and other countries.

➡️ The minimum tariff under the new measure will be 35% on approximately 1,400 products from 12 countries with which Mexico does not have trade agreements. The Asian giant is the most affected.

➡️ According to President Claudia Sheinbaum, the policy has become a "necessity" to boost national production and should take effect in January 2026.

➡️ In addition to China and Brazil, other affected countries include South Korea, India, Indonesia, Russia, Thailand, and Turkey. These tariffs will be applied to goods such as metals, cars, clothing, and appliances.

➡️ Beijing quickly expressed its disapproval of the measure, warning that Mexico must "correct its wrong practices of unilateralism and protectionism as soon as possible."

📝 Furthermore, the initiative comes at a time when Mexico is preparing for the review of the United States and Canada Free Trade Agreement (USMCA), scheduled for next year.
