Summary of What obstacles stand in the way of an Israel-Hezbollah cease-fire?
#nevent1q…5gug
Israel and Hezbollah have strong incentives to accept a cease-fire, but it's uncertain if they will. Israel has the upper hand militarily, but a ground invasion of Lebanon poses risks. The US and allies have proposed a 21-day cease-fire, but both sides may not back down from their core demands. Hezbollah has yet to employ 10% of its capabilities, and a cease-fire without tangible gains for the Palestinians would be seen as a capitulation. Israel's goals in Lebanon are narrower than in Gaza, where it seeks 'total victory' over Hamas.

Bullet points of Asian Development Bank raises growth forecast for region, but warns of risks from trade sanctions
- Developing economies in Asia are forecast to grow at a 5.0% annual pace this year, driven by a strong US economy and surging demand for computer chips that power artificial intelligence.
- The Asian Development Bank revised its growth forecast upward from 4.9% due to a rebound in exports of computer chips and other advanced electronics.
- The report highlighted several positive trends, including moderating energy and food prices, and a strong upturn in global demand for semiconductors and related electronics materials and components.
- The US presidential election is a major source of uncertainty, with the potential for higher tariffs on imports from China and other countries.
- Asia's developing economies are also vulnerable to other US moves that might affect their currencies or the cost of borrowing on foreign loans.
- China's ailing property market remains a key risk, with the ADB keeping its forecasts for growth at 4.8% in 2024 and 4.5% next year.
- The report noted that energy inflation has returned to pre-pandemic levels, alleviating pressures on some economies, and food inflation is still slightly higher but falling.
- Rice prices are expected to fall further due to record rice harvests projected for the 2024-2025 growing year, and prices for wheat and maize have also declined.
