A prospective U.S.-Iran agreement could bring a temporary end to the war, but it is unlikely to resolve the underlying conflict and may leave the Middle East more fragmented, unstable and challenging for the U.S. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/06/17/world/no-peace-with-iran-deal/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #iran #us #donaldtrump #nuclearweapons #straitofhormuz #trade #globaleconomy #oil #israel #middleeast

Peace with Iran won’t end conflict in the Gulf

Fundamentally, the deal will mark more of an intermission than a conclusion: It would entrench rather than end the struggle between America and Iran.

“Like it or not, the #globaleconomy has more or less become a foundry for #datacenters the way some people think hot dogs are just delivery systems for mustard.”

One US state out-earns Japan. Just California.

California makes $4.25 trillion a year. As of April 2026, that's the world's 4th-biggest economy — behind the US, China, and Germany, and ahead of Japan, India, the UK, and France. Per person, it's richer than Britain.

Across the Global South, the food- and energy-price shock triggered by the conflict in the Middle East has morphed into a debt shock that demands an urgent international response. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/06/17/world/iran-war-global-debt-shock/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #middleeast #globalsouth #covid19 #us #africa #un #unctad #imf #iran #worldbank #debt #globaleconomy #oil

The Iran war and the global debt shock it fueled

Once again, a global crisis is disproportionately burdening countries that did not cause it.
