| Going Strong | Since Friday's clash, the Trump Administration has relentlessly portrayed Zelenskiy as an obstacle. Zelenskiy, though, has no plans to leave office. Speaking in London on Sunday, he said that "given the support, simply replacing me will not be simple." Paradoxically, the more Trump and his team lambaste Zelenskiy, the more popular he grows at home. Auto Flex | The stock price of Europe's biggest carmakers jumped after Commission President Ursula von der Leyen gave them a reprieve on the bloc's climate goals this year. Not everyone was pleased, however, amid accusations that the EU was at risk of losing credibility with business over the green transition. Plans are in the works to further help the auto sector, including insights on how your company car plan may change. Austrian Government | Over five months after elections, Austria appointed a conservative-led government entrusted with heading off a recession while cutting the budget deficit and staving off a far-right surge. People's Party leader Christian Stocker will lead a coalition that includes the Social Democrats and liberal NEOS as junior partners. Spending Boost | A new Europe-wide multilateral development bank is in talks with the US and other governments to push for a massive security spending boost, a former NATO official spearheading the initiative told. The US is "very much open" to supporting the initiative, Rob Murray, founder of the Defense, Security and Resilience Bank, told Bloomberg Television on Monday. |
