The world at a tipping point: the long-standing US-Iran conflict has entered a hot phase on the periphery, WTI crude surged toward $79, stock markets fall, capital flees to gold and Treasuries. Europe suffocates from heat turning into an energy crisis. Ukraine — drone warfare and signals of imminent dismissal of AFU Commander-in-Chief Syrsky. The elite narrative matrix via Foreign Affairs outlines the contours of a new world: China-Europe clash, allies drifting from America, Iran's reconfiguration of the Middle East. The change of UK Prime Minister to Burnham — an attempt to shift the socio-political model. The day is filled not with isolated noises but interconnected nodes: energy, war, elites. Forewarned is forearmed.
