Merz Says Western Alliance Has Lifted 'Absolutely' All Range Limits For Arms Sent To Ukraine
On this extended Memorial Day weekend where many Americans will be spending time with family around the grill, and perhaps at local parades and remembrance events, the showdown between NATO and Russia in Ukraine just escalated in a big way.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has announced Monday that Germany, France, the UK and US have lifted prior restrictions on how far the weapons they supply to Ukraine can reach. "Absolutely no limits...," he said.

"There are absolutely no range limits anymore for weapons delivered to Ukraine, not from Britain, the French or from us — also not from the Americans," Merz said speaking at a national security forum in Berlin on Monday. "That means Ukraine can defend itself by attacking military positions also in Russia."
Russian media very quickly seized on the comments as rep...

Merz Says Ukraine Can Strike Deep in Russia, BYD Beats Tesla in Europe | Bloomberg The Pulse 05/27 (Bloomberg)
|

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said Ukraine has been given permission to use weapons supplied by its allies to launch strikes deep inside Russia. Germany had long refused to deliver the long-range Taurus cruise missile, though Merz has expressed approval of its use. In the markets, bonds rallied worldwide after Japan indicated it's looking to stabilize its debt market after weeks of rising yields. The dollar bounced back. In corporate news, Tesla's European sales roughly halved in April to just 7,261 units, with its market share continuing to erode despite a refreshed lineup. The decline suggests Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk's controversial politics and association with US President Donald Trump are hurting the brand's popularity.

Trump Hands Putin Win With Retreat From Ukraine Talks, QEF Awaits Musk | Bloomberg The Pulse 05/20 (Bloomberg)
|

President Donald Trump said that Moscow and Kyiv would “immediately start negotiations” toward a ceasefire — but possibly without the US, after a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday. There was no sanctions threat, no demand for a time-line, and no pressure on the Russian leader. Trump followed the Putin call by reaching out to European leaders, but already several governments were airing their disappointment. After months of failing to move Putin closer to peace, they fear Trump is pulling back from his efforts to end the war, leaving Ukraine and its allies on their own. Meanwhile, the Qatar Economic Forum is underway in Doha, a region that's become one of the most influential in global finance.

Stocks Rise As Europe Mobilizes Around Ukraine, Tariff Tuesday Looms | Bloomberg Brief 03/03/2025 (Bloomberg)
|
|
Equity futures rise after a tense weekend following a heated oval office exchange between Presidents Trump and Zelenskiy that appeared to blow up US support for Ukraine. European leaders rallied around the Ukrainian president in London at a security summit, sending defense stocks in the region higher in European trading. With US tariffs looming over Canada, Mexico and China tomorrow, UBP's Peter Kinsella says trading the tariff story is impossible. Katrina Dudley of Franklin Templeton thinks markets have priced in a lot of the economic bad news of the new administration, without factoring in the good news to come, such as tax cuts. “Bloomberg Brief” delivers the market news, data and analysis you need to set your agenda.
