BEIJING — China and Russia conducted a joint air patrol on Tuesday over the Sea of Japan and East China Sea for a sixth time since 2019, prompting neighboring South Korea and Japan to scramble fighter jets. China's defense ministry said the patrol was part of the two militaries' annual cooperation plan. South Korea scrambled fighter jets, according to its military, after four Russian and four Chinese military aircraft entered its air defense zone in the south and east of the Korean peninsula. Japan's military said it had scrambled fighter jets after verifying that two Russian bombers had joined two Chinese bombers over the Sea of Japan and flown together as far as the East China Sea, where they were joined by two Chinese fighter planes.

WASHINGTON -A top White House economist on Tuesday said Federal Reserve interest rate hikes aimed at curbing inflation were having a negative impact on the banking sector, and warned Republicans against worsening the situation with their debt ceiling threats. Heather Boushey, a member of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, told Reuters that Republicans should not be 'playing games' with the U.S. economy, by pegging an increase in the $31.4 trillion debt limit to budget cuts.

REUTERS/Florence Lo TOKYO  -As the yen slid past 145 per dollar with barely a murmur from Japanese policymakers during recent days, suspicion grew that they won't be as quick to order intervention as they were last year as they now reap some benefits from a weaker currency.

LONDON – Britain's economy now looks likely to sidestep recession entirely this year but deep-rooted problems like weak business investment will persist, the Confederation of British Industry trade body said on Monday. The economy is on course to expand 0.4 percent this year and 1.8 percent next year, the CBI said, compared with its previous forecast for a 0.4-percent contraction followed by growth of 1.6 percent in 2024. Falling energy prices, the reopening of China's economy from COVID-19 restrictions and easing supply chain disruptions were the main reasons for the upgrade, the CBI said.
