It is China’s key towards technological self -sufficiency

by

RISC-V architecture plays a central role in China’s strategy. This technology is A free hardware alternative Both Intel and AMD X86-64 designs and CPUs with ARM architecture that have proliferated in recent years. For the country led by Xi Jinping represents the opportunity to hold its technological development Despite the sanctions of the US -led alliance. In fact, the Chinese government has created a consortium of companies and research institutes that seeks to develop chips with this architecture. Tencent, Alibaba and the Academy of Sciences of China are some of the organizations that are working on the development of RISC-V architecture, and the US administration is very worried. It is because this technology can be used to point out extraordinarily capable supercomdators. In fact, Europe already has Epac ready (European Processor Accelerator), its first RISC-V chip, and has been designed to reside inside the next European superorders. Alibaba’s Xuantie C930 processor is a great opportunity for China At the end of August the Chinese company Unisoc presented its E450R chipa processor implemented on the RISC-V architecture that integrates an asymmetric cryptography engine 50% faster than that implemented by UNISOC in its previous security chip. In addition, according to this company, it offers a 50% improvement in transactions -based applications, so, a priori, it is ideal for high demand environments. Anyway, as we have seen, there are other Chinese companies working in RISC-V processors. “This open source chip will help build an inclusive and collaborative global ecosystem” Damo Academy, the Alibaba subsidiary dedicated to research, has developed The Xuantie C930 server processor. This chip with RISC-V architecture is expressly designed for work on high performance environmentslike the servers of the data centers, and, even, the autonomous cars, so it represents a very important step of China at a juncture in which the US sanctions and its allies prevent you from accessing the processors for more advanced servers currently available. Nor Guangnan, an academic from the Chinese Academy of Engineering, has declared That “this open source chip will help build an inclusive and collaborative Global RISC-V ecosystem, becoming the new disruption engine of the semiconductor industry.” On the other hand, an analyst from the Guotai Junan Securities consultant assures that “in the same way that Depseek has challenged OpenAi monopoly with its open source advantages, low cost and high performance, RISC-V shows significant potential in the AI ​​era.” These two statements synthesize very well why this Alibaba processor is so important to China. In fact, the country led by Xi Jinping needs this type of solutions to sustain its technological development despite the restrictions that come from the US and its allies. In addition, Alibaba has confirmed that he will begin to distribute this chip to his clients During this Marchalthough it has not required how many units it currently has. What has corroborated is that it will maintain its available design to graduate it to other integrated circuit designers who are interested in it.

The European Central Bank has been fighting for five years to literally create a “European Bizum”. Now has taken a key step

by

Europe wants to have its own instant payments system. That would allow the dependence of the great market leaders, Visa and Mastercard, and strengthened the European financial ecosystem. And the plan begins to take shape with Bizum as a great protagonist. Bizum is looking for allies. As they point out In Electomistthe idea is to unify the payment systems that are currently working in the various countries of the European Union. Bizum, protagonist in Spain, has its twin schemes with Bancomat Pay in Italy and Sibs in Portugal. All of them now pose to be interconnected with a specially relevant reference. Wero, the German Bizum. The Instant Payment System It has been since summer 2024 being the great alternative in France (where they used Paylib), Germany (Giropay), Belgium and Luxembourg (Payconiq) and Holland (ideal). This project of the European Payments Initiative (EPI) is taking shape, and it can precisely be the other great component of that fusion of instant payment systems in Europe. The ECB wants a European bizum. Sources close to negotiations indicate that the project is on the table. To get ahead, we would have that giant of the instant payments that for years has tried to boost the European Central Bank (ECB). A long -sought project. Five years ago the European Commission He started looking that “European bizum” with the launch of the aforementioned EPI. In the project 16 great banks of Spain, Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands participated. A year later the figure amounted to 31 entities. The objective, offer a unified payment solution with a payment card and a digital purse. But that has gone through problems. The initiative was promising, but the slowness of its implementation and the excessive budget necessary to achieve this caused several banks to withdraw from the project. As indicated in the economist, the Spanish bank had to contribute 300 million to the initiative, something debatable if we consider that Bizum has existed since 2015 and has a massive acceptance. Spain, Portugal and Italy teach the way. Last year Bizum, Sibs and Bancomat Pay began working on connecting their platforms and making possible instant payments between these countries in the same conditions as to the national scale. It was also the result of the Bizum Union to the European Association of Mobile Payment Systems (EMPSA), which was the consortium of southern Europe. That alliance brings together 43 million users, of which 28 belong to the Spanish system. Germany, France and Belgium were looking for something similar. Something similar happened with the EPI and Wero, which interconnected the mobile payment systems of Germany, France or Belgium and wanted to become the European Payment System. Now both consortiums have approached positions and according to the sources mentioned there are options to end working on an interconnection of all systems. This looks good. It is not clear if the conversations will end with a single European system – will Bizum be called? Wero? – Or if at the moment we will work on that interconnection of all these applications separately, but of course these efforts can be the principle of something great and important for the European panorama of instant payments. It is already known. Union is strength. In Xataka | The arrival of the digital euro is inevitable: let’s say goodbye to anonymity

Telecinco crossed a deep audience crisis. Until the key on ‘The island of temptations’

by

The hearings of ‘The island of temptations’ since The Montoya phenomenon He made his irruption on social networks have only grows, and have reached a climax in both narrative and spectators with this week’s galas. Although it will still be in the coming weeks with some gala of ‘What was …’ and the like, the last regrets in Montoya, Anita and Manuel, the tempting who generated a schism inside the couple has been the icing for this edition. “You have left me like a scolding.” It was alone One more of the many glorious phrases that the Infinite Andalusian Ingenio de Montoya. All immersed in a narrative that is hard to believe that he was not previously scripted due to his devastating sense of rhythm and his iconic Rancio melodrama characters (the hero who finds dignity, the liar who remains alone, The villain that punishes twice). Result: 16.7% quota and 2,103,000 spectators, the best Wednesday of this edition. The figures. They are not precisely nimios data: it exceeds 2.5 points and more than 300,000 viewers for the best audience that the program had had until now, three weeks ago. But above all, the most important thing: it exceeds the two daily titans and exceeds both global data and in strict coincidence of ‘El Hormiguero’ and ‘La Revuelta’. The motorcycle program had 13.7% of Share and 1,865,000 spectators, and well below, Broncano scored 11.1% and 1,519,000 spectators. Football again damages the latter again, since the Champions League in Movistar Plus+ made 8.6% and 1,139,000 spectators. The Telecinco respite. These figures suppose an oxygen ball for Telecinco, which remains the third option behind Antena 3 and 1. The triumph of ‘The island of temptations’ adds to other variables such as the final of ‘Big Brother’ and the Return from ‘Ana Rosa’ in the morningwhich makes Telecinco the option that goes up to January, with nine tenths. Of course, it came from playing background: its historical minimum in regular season (8.7%) and despite the rise, this February has been the worst in its history, with 9.6% on average. That is, certain notes of improvement are perceived, but the audiences remain abysmal. Ana Rosa as spearhead. Yesterday ‘Ana Rosa’ program, which returned in the morning after a dull evening stage in ‘afternoon’ (which curiously is working very decently in the afternoon without its alma mater) signed his best data since he returned to his original schedule: 15.2% of Share. In his strip, he led without possible competition, with almost two points of advantage, but could not stand up to Arús in his first two hours, which remains untouchable from 9 to 11 in the morning with 16.1% of Share. Even so, they are also good news for a Telecinco willing to grab any favorable data. Big Brother confirms the domain of the realities. For many headlines that monopolize its discussed final (which has made ‘tongo‘Be Trending topic in networks), ‘Big Brother Duo 3’ has both a confirmation that the formula is exhausted and that the realities They are almost the only resource of Telecinco to scratch respectable audiences (Share record -17.6% – with their end). With the failure of ‘Whoever falls falls‘, one of his great bets of this season, and the bass ratings of talents as ‘Next Level Chef’ (which You have to take over the strip of Late Night To give decent data per comparison), it is clear in which gender will continue to trust the channel. The future of the island. Now, Telecinco meets a reality that he had relegated to a secondary role obtaining his best audiences from the first auditions, so he undoubtedly has a very specific objective for the next edition: finding his next Montoya. Meanwhile, the new edition of ‘Survivors! The usual feedback of Telecinco programs, now at the service of responding to low chain audiences.

Chatgpt costs $ 700,000 a day, Deepseek just 83,000. A key is huawei and play cards differently

by

2025 began with a tsunami in the segment of the artificial intelligence. After months and months talking about different models and companies such as Google, Microsoft, Apple, Goal And, of course, OpenAIa Chinese company took off the manga Deekseekan AI that shook industry foundations. Beyond its possibilities or how good it worked, which stirred the waters were economic and hardware issues. Almost from the beginning the question of How China had taken out an AI like Deepseek With the hardware limitation they have due to the Commercial War with the United States and the impossibility of buying the most powerful graphs of Nvidia (although with controversy). To do this, the company defended that it had to pull ingenuity Thanks to an infrastructure of NVIDIA H800 chips and a training of more than 2,788 million hours with a ridiculous cost: 5.6 million dollars. And it seems scarce because Openai He invested about 100 million dollars to train GPT-4. Another melon is what it costs to keep it. As noted ReutersIf Chatgpt costs about $ 700,000 a day, Deepseek drops to $ 87,000. And here some things that have to be taken into account. Deepseek is 10 times cheaper to maintain than chatgpt, according to Depseek Last Saturday, and as noted ReutersDeepseek revealed some data on costs and income related to its V3 and R1 models. The first is a traditional, more conversational chatbot, resulting ideal for the writing and creation of content. R1, however, is a reasoning model. It stands out solving problems, using logic and is able to show step by step reasoning, using continuous learning. To compare with better known models, Depseek V3 would be like GPT-4 and R1 something similar to OPENAI O1. In the report, Reuters highlights that the theoretical relationship of Deepseek-benefit costs is up to 545% per day. Of course, the company itself warns that real income is significantly lower, but another pearl they have left since Deepseek is the cost of maintenance. Keep chatgpt working costs about $ 700,000 a day to OpenAI (at least two years ago). The reason is that the infrastructure of Microsoft Azure Serversit has a considerable energy cost, you have to pay wages and, obviously, all the power in hardware to process the consultations you receive every second. In yellow, the costs. In blue, theoretical income Deepseek “only” 87,072, a ridiculous price compared. A few days ago affirmed That, renting the H800 costs less than two dollars per hour and the estimated theoretical income is just over 560,000 dollars, which would add more than 200 million dollars in a year. In the upper graph, Depseek shows the cost of maintaining R1 and theoretical income thanks to the tokens that are generated, whose price depends on the moment of the day, being cheaper at night. They also clarify that Deepseek V3 is “significantly cheaper.” This opens more issues. One is how it is so cheap because training an AI, of course, is not. Ignoring the accusation of theft by OpenAIif Deepseek has not deflated the numbers, puts on the table a situation in which it is not needed so many graphic power to train an artificial intelligence. Here the key is the ‘reinforcement learning’, the way Deepseek has found do with much lessbut it should also be noted that, although during training the Nvidia chips are used for the R1 model, in the inference it is using The Ascend 910b of Huawei. Huawei chips are cheaper And, supposedly, more efficient, and this decision of Deepseek is almost more relevant than what may cost to maintain the system. The reason is that you can teach the rest of artificial intelligence companies that, perhaps, It is not worth using the latest generation GPUs For everything, but only for training that occurs sometimes counted, before the implementation of AI, and then use other more efficient and cheap GPUs for inference. This inference is what is done later, in a use that we could call “real” The training would be the equivalent of swallowing technical manuals in a five -year career and the inference such as implementing that knowledge and reasoning starting from the base you have and without having to learn them again. In the end, the controversy of five million dollars Deepseek is going to be there for a while, especially when we compare with OpenAi numbers, but it is clear that Depseek is doing things from another approach and can be a good mirror for companies that come behind. And, with one China very focused on the development of both AI as of Hardware for AIit can be the perfect ‘spearhead’ model.

The key is to review at the right time

by

Forgetting things is not a failure of the brain, but a natural mechanism of memory to prioritize the really important of the rest. As I explained Charan Ranganath, neuroscientist from the University of California and author of the book ‘Why we remember‘: “We are designed to forget the irrelevant and prioritize the essential.” New technologies have reduced need to memorize dataso it is possible that this part of our brain needs some more training in recent years, given the enormous flow of constant information we receive. He Method 2-7-30 Not only will it help you Improve retention of any new knowledge that you acquire, but also contributes to maintaining the active mind preventing premature cognitive impairment. The science behind oblivion: Ebbinghaus’s curve In 1880, the German psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus He discovered that we forget between 70% and 80% of what we have learned in the last 30 days if we do not review it during that period. This phenomenon, known as “curve of oblivion“, It shows that, without periodic reviews, the brain classifies information as expendable and ends up discarding it to the corner of oblivion. The Ebbinghaus curve describes a strong fall at the beginning, and progressively stabilizes. That represents the importance of reviewing the subjects learned during the immediate days, saving that high risk of initial oblivion. Ebbinghaus’s forgetfulness curve Here the 2-7-30 method that, like other study and memory systems, is based on The systematic review From what has been learned, so, by reactivating memories periodically, you deceive the brain to archive those memories as relevant. As Ranganath recalls, memory is, in essence, a competitive process in which the newest flap to the oldest. If you do not recover from so much as long as it ends up forgetting. This strategy takes advantage of neuroplasticity, brain capacity to reorganize even adulthood. How to apply the 2-7-30 rule The name of this method refers to the time period between reviews recommended for retain knowledgeso the method is simple to apply. After learning something new (a language, technical concepts and even routines), review it again two days later. Then, repeat the review after seven days and, finally, 30 days after having learned it. The cyclic use of this technique to set knowledge progressively, thus enhancing what Ebbinghaus called “learning savings”, or the reduction of time or effort necessary to learn something that had previously been memorized and then partially forgotten To optimize results, the results can be combined with other retention techniques, such as summaries out loud or Explain to someone which proposes the Feynman method.

Indonesia will finally raise the veto of the iPhone 16, according to Bloomberg. The key is in a millionaire investment of Apple

by

At the end of last year, Indonesia prohibited sale of the iPhone 16. The surprising measure did not go unnoticed, but what really caught attention was the reason: Apple had not invested enough in the country. Google either had better luck. Shortly after, The authorities vetoed the marketing of the Pixelalthough they never officially sold in Indonesia. Now, everything indicates that the situation is about to take a turn. The return of the sale of the iPhone seems imminent Bloomberg points out that Apple and the Indonesian Ministry of Industry They reached an agreement to lift the smartphone prohibition. The sources indicate that the movement should be formalized this week. The Indonesian government plans to hold a press conference to publicize the details of the commitment. However, the American media points out that Apple’s investment has played a leading role. The firm led by Tim Cook would have committed to invest no less than 1,000 million dollars in Indonesiaa figure ten times higher than the one previously destined for the creation of several Apple Developer Academy. And what will that money be invested? As explained, Apple will allocate it to the construction of an AirTags production plant in collaboration with Luxshare Precision Industry Co., an old Chinese partner of the Cupertino company. Another part of the investment will be directed to a New factory in Bandunga city southeast of Yakarta, which will focus on the production of other accessories. In addition, Apple will continue to finance its programming academies in the country. The prohibition of the iPhone 16 that is now about to disappear has been supported by a regulation that establishes that certain products must have a national component level certificate (TKDN) The TKDN is an index of the percentage of national components used in production. Apple and Google mobile devices They must reach 40% In the mentioned metric, but there are many ways to meet this requirement. Companies that do not manufacture their products in Indonesia usually resort to agreements with local suppliers at some point in their supply chain. Other strategies, such as hiring local labor and investments, also contribute. And if you wonder why Apple is so determined to overcome this prohibition, the answer is simple: it is about The greatest economy of Southeast Asia and The fourth most populous nation in the world . That is, of a large market. Images | Trac vu | Apple In Xataka | Proudly American: Apple will invest more money than ever in the United States in full tariff threat

There is a key to radically improve mobile photography. The problem is that only Xiaomi is applying it

by

The highest range mobiles They make good photographsThat is undeniable. As it is also undeniable that the defendant is increasingly aggressive and, with him, ends dying naturalness in photographs. But not everything is software, our camera sensor largely determines how aggressive they need to be (or not) those computational decisions of the phone. That is why an inch sensors have been demonstrating a simply brutal muscle. Xiaomi has cited us on March 2 to know his Xiaomi 15 Ultrayour photographic flagship. The company itself has given some brushstrokes about how the camera of this beast will be, revealing that it will repeat with the sensor configuration of an inch. This movement, although not new, is one of Xiaomi’s differential factors in the market. Although the camera sensors of an inch They have been with us for more than four yearsThey have not managed to be a standard in the highest range. Or, at least, in which it is sold in Europe, since some of the best Chinese phones with gigantic sensors are not sold in our territory. Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: 1/1.3 “. iPhone 16 Pro Max: 1/1.28 “ I live x200 pro: 1/1.28 “ Realme GT6: 1/1.4 “ Sony Xperia 1 VI: 1/1.7 “ Honor Magic7 Pro: 1/1.3 “ OPPO FIND X7 PRO: 1/1.4 “ Xiaomi 14 Ultra: 1 “ It’s curious. We have been talking about an inch sensors for years, but there is only a high range among the great manufacturers that bets on this type of sensor. An inch sensor on a mobile phone offers significant advantages in the quality of the photos and videos, mainly due to its larger size compared to the smallest sensors that are usually integrated into smartphones. One of its keys is the best light collection, since A larger sensor has a larger surface to capture light, which translates into images with somewhat less noise in low lighting conditions. This is key, at a time when manufacturers are obsessed with their noise reduction algorithms. They are also sensors with greater depth of field (an older and better natural bokeh, so that we understand each other), and that at the technical level, allow to obtain more detail. They are little if they are not worked but, well used, these sensors are a before and after (especially in RAW shots). The problem? Introducing an inch sensors is more expensive, it requires more space in the telephone body, and complex optical development to take advantage of its potential. An investment of resources to which all manufacturers are not willing. Image | Xiaomi In Xataka | Mobile cameras will not improve as much as the sensor size increases.

The Atlantic has a ‘lost city’ with the key to life on other planets. Now is in danger

by

The earth seems to have no secrets at this point. That if we talk about the earth’s part, of course, because although nWe are putting the batteries With the oceanic background, much remains to be known. And one of the examples is the lost city found in 2000, a set of structures in the middle of the Atlantic that are not only curious, but they help us with the most unexpected: Study extraterrestrial ecosystems. And, ultimately, determine the clues that must be followed to find life in the universe. Only. More than 700 meters deep west of the Mesoatlantic dorsalon December 4, 2000, some explorers in command of remote control submersibles found something surprising: a set of walls and monoliths that reached 60 meters high and had a curious bluish tone due to the foci of the submarines. These carbonated structures were something that the scientific community had never seen and was baptized as the ‘lost city’. Among that we love giving rimbombant names and that could resemble Atlantis, the marketing part was already made. Chimneys. The full name is, really, ‘Hydrothermal field of the lost city’, and it is the oldest oceanic ventilation site, at least what we know. It is estimated that he is about 120,000 years old and, during all that time, his chimneys have been expelling gases at temperatures between 40 and 90 degrees Celsius. These hydrothermal vents release methane and hydrogen, but are not volcanic, so they do not produce co₂, hydrogen sulfide or metals. With the passage of the millennia, that expelled material was accumulated in the form of columns and walls of Brucita, Aragonito and Carbonate of calcium, with a whitish color and very particular schegic texture. Point of interest. For the scientific community, the lost city is a mine. Its particular environment and the conditions of its formation, as well as its age, can provide clues about the origin of life on Earth, as well as a more detailed vision of the planet’s composition. Over the years they have been studying their materials and, in 2024, a group of scientists advertisement The recovery of a rock sample more than a meter long. With her, they hope to find crucial evidence about the origin of life on earth. There are some spectacular formations. Researchers at the University of Washington described some vents as structures that “cry” fluids that form carbonated structures of multiple tips as curious as the one we see in the photo that we leave just on these lines. But there are not only rocks in the lost city. Extraterrestrials. At that depth, without oxygen, with a highly alkaline and hydrogen, methane and other gases dissolved in water, we might think that it is a ‘lunar’ ecosystem in which life is impossible. Curiously, It is full of animals such as anemones, microbial communities, crustaceans, snails and, occasionally, deep fish. The question is how life can prosper when it comes to an environment in which there is no sunlight, there is no oxygen and both hydrogen and methane, they camp their wide. That is precisely what also called the attention Of the researchers because the study of this fact can give us clues about what kind of life or signs of life to look for in environments that can be similar, such as redry or Europe (Saturn and Jupiter moons). Threatened heritage. Writing this has given me to think about ‘Avatar‘Not only because the film has attractive extraterrestrial structures, but because its director, James Cameron, is a passionate about underwater expeditions. And something that happens in his film is that we arrive at another planet and sweep it to get resources. We must not go to Pandora -the planet of ‘avatar’-, we continue to see it in areas such as the Amazon. And that we destroy the lost city is something that researchers fear. Poland got In 2018, the exploitation rights of the seabed around the lost city and, although the hydrothermal field has no valuable resources for us, altering its surroundings could endanger the entire area. That’s why you are working so that the lost city is declared a World Heritage Site with the aim of protecting it as much as possible and being able to continue studying it. We will see what happens with an area that is not the only hydrothermal field in the world, but one whose particularities can help understand how life develops in extreme conditions and in similar extraterrestrial environments.

In its pulse with the US, China has restricted key minerals for the Tech industry. Japan fears an impact globally

by

The commercial war between United States and China It is developing with export controls. While Washington restricts the sending of advanced semiconductors and other avant -garde technologies, Beijing responds by limiting access to strategic resources. However, Japan has not hesitated to warn that the repercussions of this confrontation can go beyond these two powers. Financial Times points out That both the Japanese government and the companies in the country are alarmed by the recent measures of the Asian giant, which could mark the beginning of a “declaration of economic war against the rest of the world.” Japan, the greatest global consumer of Germanio, Graphite and Gallic, continues to receive these critical minerals, but fears that China further limits its supply. The dilemma of re -export controls China wants to prevent Gallium, whose supply to control 98%, drive military applications in the United States. And not only is he trying to do it directly with the export controls, but also indirectly with the Re -export controlswhich seek to limit the sending of products that contain this element, but the rules of the game are not clear at this time. The Chinese Gallic is in pieces made in Japan and imported by Tesla, as well as in Broadcom optical communication components and semiconductors used in Apple devices. However, Japanese suppliers that make up the supply chain of these US companies claim to ignore the gallium limit that they can incorporate into their products. So, as they warn, China could decide overnight that an excess of gallium is being sent to the United States and demand that a export license to continue supplying. The dynamics of licenses is well known: the United States has also used them To restrict the export of Nvidia graphics chips to Chinaand the problem is that, in most cases, they are never granted. In a globalized world, the decisions of key countries resonate beyond its borders. A change in the export policies of China or the United States can reconfigure access to essential resources, affect global prices and alter the economy of some nations. What seems like an isolated dispute can have direct effects on global markets, even making themselves feel in consumers.

The hidden key behind the entire spinal encounter between Javier Milei and Elon Musk: Lithium

by

The most popular news today is the bizarre gift from Milei to Musk: a chainsaw, how could it be otherwise. However, like any media show, a background related to energy resources and possible commercial opening with the United States is being hidden. In situation. Yesterday, February 20, the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) that the Republican party is celebrating near Washington, where Musk and Milei were. There, the president of Argentina gave a chainsaw to the owner of Tesla, who called her as The “Bureaucracy chainsaw”. First of all this show, the question is: What is Milei doing? On the one hand, after controversial support for cryptocurrency $ librathe Argentine president has chosen to get away from all that storm and travel to his place on Earth: United States. On the other hand, Javier Milei He has gathered With Kristalina Georgieva, managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), To discuss the economic situation from Argentina. In addition, the United States Chamber of Commerce in Argentina The nation has announced for the environment that Argentina has “serious possibilities” of accessing a free trade agreement with the United States. Milei and Musk’s relationship. This friendship between Javier and Elon is not new, and unites a very important and necessary energy resource for the second: lithium. Argentina has historically been very rich in natural resources and has become a fundamental actor for the new technology, especially because it shares the “Lithium triangle” next to Chile and Bolivia. In that aspect, Milei has undertaken A reformist agenda that seeks to eliminate all environmental and social regulation to attract foreign investors, and lithium has become an essential pillar in its economic strategic. Hence his relationship with the tycoon of Tesla, who has shown great interest in the exploitation of lithium. An example of this boom is The Centennial Mouse projectlocated in the province of Salta, where lithium is being extracted. Operated by the French company ERAMET, this site is expected to produce 24,000 tons of lithium lithium carbonate battery, sufficient to supply 600,000 electric vehicles a year. Opening with the United States. “Who wants something, something costs him,” but sometimes this phrase must be rethink and ask: but what cost? The fact is that while Musk approaches Milei, he is finding out how to get one more loan for Argentina. The Argentine president not only went to take refuge to the American country and feel the heat of his “friends”, but also to talk to the IMF and discuss a new financial agreement within the framework of his economic adjustment plan. During the meeting, Georgieva The country’s “progress” has highlightedincluding deficit reduction, low inflation and economic growth. However, one thing is the numbers and another reality: everything has been achieved based on a severe tax adjustment, eliminating subsidies and reducing ministrieswhich has generated a strong social impact and discontent in broad sectors of the population. In addition, economists have explained to the CNN That Georgieva’s subsequent statement was not “very constructive”, since he did not offer concrete details about additional financial support or changes in the exchange scheme. Despite the praise, the new agreement has not yet been specified, and doubts persist about the amounts and conditions that the IMF could demand. Commercial Opening. While Donald Trump has begun to put tariffs on all countries it seems that he will make an exception with Argentina. In fact, the United States Chamber of Commerce in Argentina (Amcham) He has affirmed that the country has “serious possibilities” of accessing a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with the US, with Uruguay and Ecuador as the countries of the region with the most likely to achieve this agreement. According to Amcham, Argentina is key in sectors such as critical minerals and energy, which reinforces its position in negotiations. In addition, they stressed that a recent FTA between the United States and South Korea took place in just 11 months, suggesting that Argentina could follow a similar path. However, they warned that factors such as the lack of designations in key positions of the US government and internal differences could delay the implementation of these measures in the short term. In this context. The Economic Community and the Argentine Society remain expectant to advances in the negotiations and implications they will have in the country’s economy and social welfare. Everything remains to be seen in country with great reservations of minerals and oil. Image | President’s office Xataka | “Ponzidente”: How $ Libra and the cryptocurrency macroestaf
