US Supreme Court strikes down Trump's tariffs, Europe puts brakes on EU-Mercosur deal, US and EU to overhaul WTO, India AI Impact Summit, Sudan civil war

The US Supreme Court invalidated sweeping executive tariffs, prompting President Trump to immediately implement a temporary 10% levy using alternative legal authorities. Simultaneously, the European Union is navigating internal farmer protests while attempting to finalize a trade deal with Mercosur and joining the U.S. in challenging China’s trade status at the WTO. Economic data reveals that China has reclaimed its position as Germany’s primary trading partner, even as Western nations attempt to reduce their systemic dependencies. Technological advancement is highlighted by a major AI summit in India, which secured massive infrastructure investments and focused on ethical governance. In contrast to these economic developments, the report concludes with the dire humanitarian reality in Sudan, where a multi-year civil war has triggered catastrophic famine and the world’s largest displacement crisis.
