I think part of the treaty will be compensation from UK and US for the lease. Which they weren’t getting any prior to the handover.

Was Gonz trying to join Big 12? I wondered why they’d join a weaker conference.

You might ask why is a newspaper from Myanmar covering news of ethnic-religious violence in Bangladesh? It is because there is on-going historic rivalry and animosity between Bengali people and Arakanese people. There are tibeto-burman tribes living in Bangladesh who have been subjected to several genocides over the years by Bangladeshi military and civilians. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Buddhists#Massacres

“I will ensure Japan emerges from deflation,” he said, promising to accelerate Kishida’s policies aimed at boosting household income through wage hikes."

I haven’t seen anything that suggests Ishiba is an inflation hawk. And as former defense minister, he’s going to accelerate Japan’s defense spending further and counter Chinese threat in the region. Which will boost economy.

Japan has struggled with deflation for decades. Inflation has been a welcome development for them. With an aging population and low birth rates, they aren’t in danger of heading into hyper inflation.
