The Ugandan coffee sector has started preparing itself to fulfill the new European Union regulations on coffee set to take effect on July, 2025. Speaking during a stakeholders' dialogue organize by SEATINI at Hotel Africa spoke of strategies to meet the standards. "The regulation requires that we trace our coffee from the garden to the market, which means we must know who is producing the coffee, where are they located, which coffee are they growing and this requires us to file a due diligence certificate.

Among the EU's "strategic" investments, Vestager cited a 100 billion euro fund for ten "cutting edge technologies" — including in hydrogen, electric batteries, microelectronics, cloud and health — which she said have "common European interest." "That, I think, is a strategic way of using taxpayers money, crowding in private capital, in order to get what the market will not otherwise deliver," said Vestager, who is also executive vice president of the European Commission.

Contrary to a popular article of faith, America has no free market in health care—far from it. Consider this: the largest lobby in Washington, D.C., is—wait for it—the health care and health insurance industries. Last year, they spent 5.8 times the amount the "defense" contractors spent on lobbying: $800 million versus less than $200 million.

Like so many of Stratfor's contributors, I spend a lot of time thinking about geography. In the past, I have even suggested that geography has been the main force determining the different fates of each part of the planet for the past 20,000 years.
