With retaliation, GDP losses could reach up to 0.6%—still…

Ukrainians are once again filling public squares—not to protest an invading army, but to defend the democratic principles they believe are being eroded from within. A controversial new law, signed by President Volodymyr Zelensky on July 22, has ignited a political firestorm, with protests erupting in at least 10 major cities over concerns it weakens Ukraine’s anti-corruption watchdogs.

As British engineers rushed in to conduct diagnostics and hydraulic system repairs, Indian security personnel cordoned off the jet, treating it as a high-value guest. What followed was not just…
