US

  • Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is under pressure from vulnerable Senate Democrats in red states to hold a vote on the bipartisan tax bill which overwhelmingly passed the House (357-70) in January. Progressive Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) panned the bill and criticised previous Democrat administrations for institutionalising Republican tax cuts.
  • The Treasury Department announced measures yesterday to close a, “major tax loophole,” which they claim will raise more than USD$50 billion in new revenue over the next 10 years.
  • The Department of Energy announced plans to invest up to USD$900 billion to kickstart small modular nuclear reactor technology.
  • White House envoy, Amos Hochstein, met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu yesterday amid concerns that tensions between Israel and Hezbollah could expand into a wider war.
  • Senior US and Israeli officials will meet at the White House on Thursday to discuss the state of Iran’s nuclear programme for the first time since March 2023.
  • Secretary of State Antony Blinken will hold a joint press conference with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg at 11:15 ET 16:15 BST.
  • National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan is in India for the first high-profile Biden administration visit to the country since Prime Minister Narendra Modi secured a record-equalling third term in office.
