18 boats
The recently announced 13th aid package to Ukraine provides 18 coastal and riverine patrol boats to start rebuilding the devastated Ukrainian navy. However, the patrol boats’ limited capabilities and a lack of conventional munitions for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) reduce the package’s impact.

$200 billion
During the G7 summit, President Biden announced that the United States will mobilize $200 billion dollars of investment in global infrastructure projects under its new strategy, the Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment (PGII). The proposal is part of an effort to address the infrastructure gap in the developing world while providing an alternative to China’s estimated $1 trillion in hard infrastructure investment globally in the last decade.

Most of hydrogen demand today comes from refining and industrial use, which is met mainly from fossil fuels. However, a growing number of countries are starting to examine the potential role of clean hydrogen. For example, research indicates that ammonia co-combustion at a 20 percent share could reduce the annual carbon emissions of coal-fired power plants by one-fifth.

1-2%
China’s zero-Covid policy has disrupted manufacturing, supply chains, and consumer spending, and it is unlikely China will hit its original 5.5 percent growth target. Instead, China’s economy is expected to grow no more than 1 to 2 percent this year despite a massive fiscal and monetary stimulus.
