In his attempt to fly through the airs the global supply chain, the US has a new obsession: copper

by

After a few weeks of relative tranquility, the US administration is again climbing the C tensions in its commercial war with China. Trump has announced a new 50% tariff for copper imports. A key step to torpedo China’s strategy, who currently leads its refining and casting processes. Tightening the nuts. The president of the United States, Donald Trump, announced on Tuesday The imposition of a new 50% tariff to all copper imported to the United States. It is unknown for the moment when the measure will enter into force, but this points to a key material not only for the semiconductor industry: copper is crucial for sectors such as transport, energy or construction. The US position. Unlike his war declared to China with the Rare earthThe United States is one of the largest copper producers in the world. He currently occupies fifth place, although his main problem is a very concrete: consumes much more than it produces. Much of the copper it uses arrives as refined cathodes from Asia, especially from China. The goal. The United States not only seeks to protect its national industry. It aims to change the roles in this value chain: Encourage that copper refines within the US Reduce dependence on Chinese Foundions Press Latin America to export copper without going through China. Although Latin America Head the list of copper producers (Chile currently dominates primary mine production with more than 20% global position), dominating refining capacity is a central role in the supply chain. The reactions. The price of copper in the United States has reached its historical maximum in the national market After Trump’s statements, even with doubts about how it will apply and what will be the possible exceptions. The impact. The 50% tariff on copper imports would have a remarkable impact on key industries. Semiconductors: copper is, along with other critical metals such as scandio, disposium or bismuth, a fundamental material for the chips industry. A few milligrams per chip are key to its manufacture. Automotion: The electric vehicle needs much more copper for its manufacture (motor, battery, wiring). Electrical networks: transformers, substations, cables. Consumer electronics Construction Although Trump wants to obtain control over the supply chain, the measure can be shot in the foot. The United States does not have enough capacity to produce and refine all the copper it needs. The doubts. Although Trump has announced that the copper tariff will reach 50%, it has not detailed whether the measures will affect the entire refined copper, or certain products dependent on this material. They are not known to the measure, or date of entry into force. Be that as it may, The war for the domain of metals It will be crucial to control commercial tensions. China’s dominant position on rare earths It puts the United States in a delicate situation, which is trying to face attacking materials as concrete as copper.

The idea of ​​writing with luxury material

Even the simplest and most traditional shops are susceptible to finding a gourmet version. Bakeries, coffee shops or ice cream shops in special and exquisite mode is understood, after all we talk about food. But … And the stationery? Are the catalog of the stationery stores, economical, accessible and massive by definition, gourmetizables? There are shops who think so, and the success of stationery stores like Panda Bohéme in Vigo is a good test. Everything is gourmet. Or, at least, everything can be gourmet. It is a phenomenon that already dates from some years, linked to premiumization and specialization of traditional shops, where everyday products are transformed into objects of desire through design, quality, customization and purchase experience. It is the answer we have to the advancement of digitalization and mass standardization, looking for exclusivity, individuality and sensory pleasure in daily life and everyday life. Examples? Gourmet bakeries and pastries, Specialty coffee shops, Artisanal ice cream shopscheese and selected charcations, design florists and, of course, and linked to gourmet stationery stores, independent libraries. And stationery. This, applied to the stationery stores, runs in the same direction: the type of products that are in a traditional trade in the sector, but with the focus on the exclusive, the artisanal and creative inspiration. A lot of material for crafts, calligraphy, drawing and accent in the premium product: notebooks, pens, folders, all of good quality and with somewhat higher prices than usual. And also import products, especially Japan, where there is a whole Cultural obsession with stationery products. German origins. A pioneer example in Europe from this type of shops is Divine Designfounded on Germany in 2003and that from its origin it was distinguished by its commitment, unheard of in the times prior to the global massification of the Internet, for ecological materials and the high standards of quality of its products. As of the 2010, The phenomenon began to expand through Europe and Asiadriven by the rise of Japanese, Korean and American brands. The return to the world in a thousand stationery. According to the trend he has expanded around the world, each country has welcomed it to its aesthetic and cultural preferences. For example, in Japan there are Material brands for this type of shops like Kokuyo, Tombow, Zebra, Pilot, Uni-Ball, Sun-Star or Midori, and stand out for how they combine functionality, aesthetics and pleasure of use. The deep roots of Japanese culture with the paper industry is remarkable, both for its millenary tradition with material and his conception of writing and calligraphy as an act of emotional root, as with the adoption of recent aesthetic currents, such as The Kawaii. In Korea, aesthetics is even more accentuated, with brands such as Iconic, Monami or Livework, with the accent placed on the design and soft colors. On the other hand in the United States, it is committed to the functional and the resistant, although there are also minimalist designs and veteran brands, where names such as Cloth & Paper or Smythson stand out. And in Spain? The phenomenon has been settling in Spain for a few years, with certain common elements: the essential presence of Japanese and Korean material and the importance of social networks and the Internet in the business. For example, one of the most prominent gourmet stationery stores is Panda Bohèmeof Vigo, with a physical store of more than 250 m² where it organizes events and workshops, such as Pop-ups of import marks. Significantly, your Instagram account has almost 40,000 followers due to the care with which they show and teach their catalog. Other important stores are Likely.es, Bomagui either Ikigai. Paper philosophy. This flowering of libraries has a lot to do with the movements of Digital detoxification who advocate a Return to physical experiences. The pleasure of writing on paper, although it seems unchanging in these times of total digitalization, has some connection with ancestral traditions that in high -end stationery stores have been in charge of modernizing and providing meaning again. New times for activities as old as humanity itself.

Google has a new and huge transatlantic underwater cable. One that will connect Santander with the United States

by

If you are reading this it is because you are connected to the Internet, and if you are connected to the Internet it is because there are on the seabed true highways of huge fiber cables that interconnect the world. Submarine cables are really fascinating and In Spain we have a few. Well today we have to add another: Sol, the new Google transatlantic submarine cable that will connect our country with the United States. From Santander to Florida. Sol will be Google’s second submarine cable that will connect Spain with the United States. It will be, in fact, the only fiber optic cable between Europe and Florida. The cable, which will have 16 pairs of fiber optic cables, will be manufactured in the United States, will connect to the Google Cloud region in South Carolina and will be deployed from Palm Coast, Florida. It will pass through the Bermuda Islands, then it will reach the Azores and, finally, it will land in Santander thanks to the infrastructure provided by The Spanish Telxius. 10 Google applications that could have triumphed Scheme of the Sun and Nuvem cables | Image: Google In detail. This cable will be added to the facilities already available, such as Nuvem, Firmina either Equianto establish connectivity centers in the Atlantic. The idea, they explain from Google, is that Sol and Nuvem complement themselves to “contribute a double transatlantic resilience.” Nuvem is a sun -like cable: it leaves South Carolina, passes through Bermuda and arrives in Europe through Portugal. The idea is to offer two interconnected systems on land to increase the reliability and capacity of the system. That is, provide redundancy and security. So that? According to the company, the objective of displaying this cable is to improve the integration of the Google Cloud Region of Madrid With the entire network, as well as reinforce the global network that, for the moment, is composed of 42 regions. According to Google in a statement issued to media: “(Sun deployment) will help meet the growing demand for Google Cloud and IA services by its customers in Europe, the United States and other regions, adding capacity, increasing reliability and reducing latency for Google users and Google Cloud customers worldwide.” Grace Hopper deployment in 2021 | Image: Google The second Google cable in Spain. France, Ireland, England, Spain and Portugal are, for obvious reasons, the main European ports of submarine cables. In Spain we have some very important as Tide, Andjana and Grace Hopper. Tide is owned by Meta, Telxius and Microsoft, connects Bilbao with Virginia Beach and measures 6,605 kilometers. The Brutal Andjana is owned by Meta, measures 7,121 kilometers, has 24 pairs of fibers, a capacity of 500 Tbps and connects Europe with the United States. Grace Hopper, meanwhile, is the first cable that Google installed on our borders. It is one of the longest: with its 7,191 kilometers, Grace Hopper connects Bilbao with Bellport (United States) and Bude (England). The longest? Although cables such as Sol, Marea, Grace Hopper and company are a prodigy, the reality is that they are not the most impressive. They do not shade in terms of distance to 2AFRICAan international submarine cable surrounding the coast of Africa to connect Europe and the Middle East. It is a mamotreto of 16 pairs of fibers, 180 Tbps of capacity and a length of 45,000 kilometers that connects 46 service stations in 33 countries. It is expected to be finished by the end of this year.

The production of Russian drones was so huge that Ukraine has opened them looking for clues. The surprise is China

by

The situation It is not new In Ukraine. In the past they have opened Russian Shahed and other intercepted models to find out what was behind the device. Thus they found some paradoxes of the war, such as the fact that Moscow drones carried a wide variety of components of the United States or of kyiv’s allies. However, from a while to this part, Russian production was so immense that suspicions began. Someone else should be behind, and a document has just revealed it. Made in China. First it was Intelligence of Ukraine. Russia is managing to maintain and expand its weapons production despite Western sanctions, and is achieving it thanks to the constant supply of electronic components and materials from Chinaaccording to Vladyslav Vlasiuk, Ukrainian commissioner for sanctions, in a context of intensification of Russian attacks with missiles and drones. The recent appearance of Manufactured parts In China in Shahed-136/Geran-2 drones recovered in Kyiv, added to previous reports on the involvement of Chinese companies in the Russian military supply chain, it reinforced what Ukraine qualifies as a Alcanza trend In Chinese technological support to Moscow. Vlasiuk warned that Beijing is not only expanding its logistics role, but already replicates US technologies, which increases its ability to support the Russian military complex. The document that certifies it. From the first bars of the large -scale invasion of Ukraine, Moscow has urgently sought forms of strengthen your arsenal of drones, key in the new paradigm of asymmetric war that is fought both in the front and in the sky. An essential part of that answer It has been Aero-Hita little known firm based in Khabarovsk, at the eastern end of Russia, which has emerged as one of the main drone manufacturers of the country thanks to a dense network of covert cooperation with Chinese companies. That is precisely what has been revealed thanks to documents obtained by Bloomberg. The medium counted a few hours ago how, despite Western sanctions, Russia has managed to channel components, technical knowledge and sensitive technologies From China Through intermediary companies, agreements in special customs areas and personal relationships with actors linked to both the industry and the Russian state apparatus. One of the Russian drones pieces shared by Ukrainian intelligence Strategic link. Aero-Hit’s production focuses on The Veles modela low -cost and high precision FPV drone that has already been deployed in military operations in zones Like sweaters. The United States Treasury Department itself sanctioned the company For the use of these drones against Ukrainian objectives, confirming their role in the Russian war machinery. The development of Veles has been reinforced by collaborations with Autel Roboticsa Chinese drone manufacturer that officially denies any link with Russia since 2022, but whose technology is repeatedly mentioned in the internal correspondence of Aero-Hit and in joint investment plans for more than 90 million dollars. A letter. According to a June 2025 letter published By Bloombergboth parties had restored technical contacts and negotiated the localized production of the model AUTEL EVO MAX 4Tan initially civil drone that has demonstrated high efficacy in combat thanks to its resistance to electronic interference. This process would not only imply integration into Russian systems, but also direct transfer Firmware, purification methods and repair capabilities, which reinforces the strategic value of the agreement. Khabarovsk: Moscow-Pekín axis pole. The epicenter of this operation is The city of Khabarovska few 30 kilometers from the Chinese border. There, since 2022, agreements have been woven between the Komax company (Property of the exagent of the KGB and occupation senator in Jersón Konstantin Basyuk) and representatives of the Chinese government, including officials in the Harbin Free Zone and the prestigious Harbin Technology Institute (HIT), a university linked to the Popular Liberation Army and sanctioned by the United States for developing advanced weapons. Between 2022 and 2023 They formalized plans To create an assembly plant with customs tax advantages, including sending 100 drone kits From China and official visits to Factories from Shenzhen, including the headquarters of Autel Robotics. The initiative received high-level political support, with meetings between Russian officials and Chinese executives during the Chinese-Russia Business Forum of 2024, and was cataloged as “priority” By Yury Trutnev, special envoy of the Kremlin for the Far East. Intermediaries and camouflage network. Bloomberg underlined that Aero-Hit, officially registered after these contacts, has undercover its relationship with China through a intermediary networkwhich includes fictitious or camouflaged signatures under other activities (such as air catering companies, seafood distribution or real estate logistics) that serve to manage orders, billing and transport. More: Documents of March and August 2024 show Drones deliveries to units deployed in Jersón and official requests from the Russian Defense Ministry to acquire thousands of Veles units, together with antennas and accessories. Companies such as Renewsio-Invest and Shenzhen Huasheng Industry (both sanctioned by the United States) have been key in the supply of pieces and electronics from China, even after the new commercial restrictions imposed by Beijing in 2023. Although some Chinese firms retired from the project for fear of sanctions, others They occupied their placeguaranteeing the continuity of the supply chain. Ukrainian forces after intercepting a Russian shahed Official ambiguity and mutual benefit. Autel Robotics has insisted on deny any link With Russia or Aero-Hit since February 2022, claiming that it is a civil company without military licenses and with strict compliance policies. However, the Documents obtained They suggest that links could be mediating through individual engineers, subsidiaries or intermediary vendors. Beijing, meanwhile, argues that he has never delivered lethal weapons to no side in war and strictly controls two -use goods exports such as drones, although the real depth of Chinese government knowledge about these transfers continues without clarifying. The persistence of technological flow from China to Russia raises uncomfortable questions about the effectiveness of the sanctions regime global and about the nature of the declared neutrality By the Government of Xi Jinping, at a time when the diplomatic pressure on Beijing intensifies.

In Spain, Christian baptisms are in free fall. There are those who have found a substitute: civil baptisms

by

There was a time when children arrived with something more than a bread under their arm. They did it with an invitation (almost mandatory) to the baptism. They were their parents more or less believers, more or less practitioners, most babies passed through the baptismal pia. Not today. Just like Not all The couples who marry do so before a Catholic priest. As society It is secularized New rituals gain strength, such as civil weddings or “Baptisms Lacios”, which two decades after their premiere in Spain They continue to expand. They may not be a majority option or have reached the level of popularity of civil links (which do have a legal character), but lay and symbolic baptisms have gone making his way Little by little in the Spanish geography. Civil baptisms? The concept may be shocking, but It has been a few years old extending through Spain and there are still municipalities that incorporate it into its service portfolio In full 2025. A civil christening It is neither more nor less than the secular alternative to Christian baptisms, a secular ceremony, usually free of religious connotations, during which a child’s entry into society is represented. Nothing else. Nothing less. And although it lacks legal value, in some cases it is accompanied by A symbolic title. The former mayor of Valencia, Joan Ribó, in May 2023, during the first “welcome ceremony to the citizenship” of the City Council. Is it something new? No. at all. There are those who go back their origins to the “civil sponsorship” that were held in France from the late eighteenth century. In Spain they are not a novelty either. Its history can go at least to Autumn of 2004when the first “foster care” was held at the City Council of Igualada. Since then the formula has been extended to other municipalities in the country. In 2007 Rivas Vaciamadrid began to celebrate them, Madrid and The Borge They joined in 2009Albacete In 2011Moaña In 2013 and Vigo In 2018… and thus a long (and growing) list of municipalities distributed throughout the country. How many? Difficult to specify it, although the number of municipalities that celebrate them exceed the hundred. In 2018 only in Catalonia they were offered in 71 municipalities. In 2022 Cullera Laya had accounts and calculated that in the whole of Spain at least 150 municipalities willing to organize ceremonies of “civil foster care”. The same figure shared it in 2023 Religion in freedom. The truth is that the list has followed (and continues) growing over time. In May 2023 The first civil christening was organized in Valencia and shortly the payroll of municipalities that deliver citizenship letters to babies will increase with a new incorporation: Lovesa Galician people of 32,800 inhabitants that It has just approved The ordinance that regulates them. “Although they may seem simple symbolic ceremonies and without legal validity, their existence represents a step towards a model of coexistence in which all families can participate,” defend A councilor. Year Catholic baptisms Number of births 2008 335,484 519,779 2012 268.810 454,648 2017 214,271 393,181 2022 159,129 329,251 2023 152,426 320,656 Are many celebrated? Another difficult question to answer. There are no global or official balances, but the data that has been shared in account in the press suggest two trends: the first, that the “civil christening” has been gaining weight in the Spanish geography, expanding to dozens of locations; second, which is far from reaching the reception level of Catholic ceremonies. In 2017 Albacete digital He revealed that since 2011 they had been held in the town about twenty of civil receptions. That same year, at the time the service premiered, Vigo added Several tens of applications. His success has also been marked by political fluctuations. In Valencia, for example, only For a few months. After the change of government, the new team decided to do without them without apparently having great impact. As it transpired then, seven requests had been registered. Civil ceremony held in 2023 in Valencia. Are there more clues? Yeah. The confidential published on Tuesday A report in which he spoke with professionals in the sector that confirm an increase of interest in the format. “I have been in the business business for new years and lately demand for civil baptisms, a strong fashion also in the United States,” An organizer recounts of events. A quick search for #Bautizosimbolico, #Ceremoniadebienvenida or #bautizocivil on Instagram or Tiktok It shows that lay acts continue to be held, both in Spain and in other countries. What is your goal? Celebrate. Introduce. Welcome. During civil baptisms the arrival of newborns, their “entry” in society is celebrated. Sometimes it is done in the municipalities, with the participation of mayors. Others not. The normal thing is that during the ceremony Articles are read Related to the protection of childhood, such as the Spanish Constitution, the United Nations Constitution Rights Convention of 1990 or the Declaration of the Rights of the Child (1959). “It’s not that people don’t have faith, they want to make baptism something more intimate and emotional,” Share The same professional. “Everything I do depends on what parents choose, although the ritual usually develops around a table. Usually, the godparents sign an act with their commitment, a document that is not registered anywhere or has legal weight, but rather symbolic.” Is it an isolated phenomenon? No. The civil christening is not understood without the context and more specifically the secularization of society. After all, baptism (or foster care) is not the only sacrament that has been stripped of religious value. The clearest case is that of marriage. In 2009 the number of civil links exceeded for the first time to the Catholic weddings, with 94,993 ‘yes I want’ pronounced before civil authorities and 80,104 before priests. The situation has changed. In 2022 79.9% of links held in Spain they were civilians and only 20.1% religious. And that that last was the highest percentage recorded since 2019.

In South Korea there are parents voluntary in cells. There is a word that explains it: “Hikikomori”

by

Jin Young-Hae is a fictional name. Your story is not. Last year this South Korean mother explained to the BBC Under the condition of the anonymity what has led him to – in a totally voluntary way – a blue monkey and spend hours and more hours held in a tiny, austere cell, not much greater than a closet and in which he did not have a company, mobile, or portable spent hours. Alone, with your thoughts. The only link with the outside from his peculiar prison was the small hole open at the door through which he was given food. Sounds strange, but there is a word that explains it: Hikikomori. Objective: to isolate yourself from the world. The choice of Mrs. Jin may seem extravagant, but she is not the only one who has made a similar decision in South Korea. BBC has spoken with other inmates and voluntary inmates. In addition to demanding anonymity, they all share two fundamental characteristics. The first, who are parents of young people who are between adolescence and thirty. The second, which have decided to participate in a special program that keeps them held during a brief period in isolation cells. And this last word can be understood in its most literal sense. Jin and the rest of the participants are housed in tiny habitats to which they cannot take or mobile phones. But … why? To understand. Jin or Park Han-Sil, another pseudonyms used by BBC to tell a real case, are mothers of South Korean youth who share another peculiarity: they have been isolated from the world. Jin is the mother of a 24 -year -old who lives withdrawn in his room, neglecting his cleaning and food. Park has a little older, 26 years old, who has already decided to cut all communication with society. Now he barely leaves his room and refuses to take the medication that doctors have scheduled. When voluntary, ladies Jin or Park try to better understand their offspring, put themselves into their skin in an extreme way and especially look for tools to communicate better with them. “I’ve been wondering what I did wrong … it’s painful,” Jin admits50 years. Now, and after passing through the cell, he claims to have “some clarity.” Park also recognizes that isolation has helped him understand the feelings of his offspring. “I have realized that it is important to accept his life without forcing him to fit into a specific mold.” “Confinement experience”. Neither Park nor Jin decided to be a good day in their homes, improvised. His have been planned experiences and the isolation have been done in the Happiness Factory rooms, where the inmates They arrive to experiment in their flesh the “confinement”. For this they can dress a uniform, leave their phones and laptops and be held in bare wall cells, without company. The BBC clarifies That since April there are other parents who have been participating in a 13 -week special education program funded by organizations such as Fundación for the Youth of Korea or the Blue Whale Recovery Center. The program has a clear, and complicated objective: show these fathers and mothers how to communicate better with their children. To this end, it includes a peculiar experience, a three -day period during which participants spend time in rooms in the province of Gangwon that replicate an isolation cell. The keyword: Hikikomori. Jin and Park are mothers of Hikikomoria term coined in Japan already decades ago and that identifies young people who at a certain time of their lives decide to be disturbed almost completely, cutting contact with the world that opens beyond their homes or rooms. The phenomenon is not new, but serious. At least according to the estimates that the authorities handle. Not long ago, the Ministry of Health and Welfare of South Korea conducted a survey between 15,000 young people between 19 and 34 years old and discovered that More than 5% They lived in isolation. If these figures move to the country as a whole, they would show that in South Korea there are hundreds of thousands of people in a similar situation: just over half a million (540,000).

South Korea also stands out for its Work Days marathon. Concern beyond home. The one of Hikikomori It is a phenomenon serious enough to generate concern beyond families. In 2023 the government came to launch A campaign To encourage solitary young people to leave home and “reintegrate into society”, for which he did not hesitate to offer 450 euros designed for young people up to 24 years. Then there was talk that in the country there would be hundreds of thousands of people living in isolation. The advantages of a pause.
