Quick Glance: Russia and China Veto US Cease-Fire Resolution
- Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored UN resolution on Friday calling for an immediate and sustained cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza to protect civilians and enable humanitarian aid for over 2 million hungry Palestinians.
- The resolution reflected a shift in U.S. stance, diverging from much of the world's push for an unconditional end to the fighting.
- While the resolution would have been officially binding, it would not have stopped the fighting or released hostages, but it would have increased pressure on Israel as its closest ally aligns more with global calls for a cease-fire.
- The Security Council had passed two resolutions on the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza, but none had called for a cease-fire.

kuwaittimes.com/article/11818/business/ecb-keeps-rates-on-hold-with-inflation-sticky/
Quick Glance: ECB Keeps Rates Stable: Inflation at 2% by 2025
- The European Central Bank (ECB) kept its benchmark interest rates steady in March, anticipating a further decline in inflation. Price pressures are expected to reach the target of 2% by 2025.
- The latest ECB staff projections suggest that inflation is projected to average 2.3% in 2024, followed by 2.0% in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026. Despite easing measures of core inflation, persistent domestic price pressures remain, partly due to strong wage growth.
- The ECB reiterated its data-dependent approach, intending to evaluate economic data to determine the appropriate path of its policies. Market reactions to the new ECB staff projections saw a weakening of the euro against the dollar and a decrease in sovereign bond yields across the eurozone.
- European equity indices surged, driven by heightened expectations of rate cuts following the updated ECB staff projections. Investors are eagerly anticipating statements from ECB President Lagarde, scheduled to commence at 14:45 CET.
