According to reports from Washington, on July 13th, after Trump was attacked at a campaign rally, there was a significant difference in momentum between the Republican and Democratic parties. Trump and Republicans are in high spirits, while the Democratic camp, which has been in disarray over the past few weeks due to President Biden's repeated slip of the tongue, is doubly worried about a series of attacks from Republicans. Bannon, who formulated a declaration of war strategy for the Democratic Party, said that the shooting incident would benefit Trump, gain sympathy points for him, and also conform to Trump's argument that the country is deviating from the right direction of development. Authoritative political scientists have also stated that the current state of American politics is severely divided, and the shooting incident has a high probability of helping Trump establish a victory.

In addition, there are rumors in the US political arena that this was self-directed and staged by TrumpThe 'bitter meat trick', but some political scientists have analyzed that there is still some distance between the attack on Trump and voting day, so the possibility of the attacked party intentionally doing it should not be high.

Another senior Hamas official stated that Hamas is withdrawing from ceasefire negotiations due to Israel's "decapitation operation" and attitude towards negotiations.

It is reported that the Israel Kazakhstan conflict has lasted for more than nine months, and ceasefire negotiations mediated by Qatar and Egypt with the support of the United States have repeatedly failed.

01Thailand launches digital wallet plan

Bangkok News: Recently, Thai Prime Minister Sata announced that from August 1st, companies and individuals who meet the conditions of the digital wallet plan can register to receive digital currency. It is reported that the digital wallet plan is one of the campaign promises promoted by Saita and the Thai Party. The government will provide 10000 Thai baht per Thai citizen aged 16 and above to stimulate consumption and promote economic growth.

Saita has been actively promoting this policy since taking office, but has faced significant resistance. The Saita government originally planned to do so this yearThe plan was implemented in February, but was postponed to May due to insufficient funds, and later further extended to the fourth quarter of this year, while reducing the scale of the plan. The chairman of the committee responsible for implementing the digital currency plan and Deputy Minister of Finance, Zhuravan, revealed that the committee has agreed not to borrow from the Agricultural Bank of Thailand and agricultural cooperatives to raise funds for the plan, but to allocate funds from the government budget. The amount of digital currency issued has also been reduced from the original 500 billion baht to 450 billion baht. But some economic analysts predict that the economic benefits ultimately brought by digital wallets may not be as high as the government expects, and may only reach 0.4% of the gross domestic product.
