The post highlighted unverified rumors of advanced jamming systems, but no evidence supports new transfers this week. Instead, Iran recently received China's YLC-8B radar in early February, which detects stealth aircraft like the F-35 up to 500 kilometers away using UHF waves—though it's a spotting tool, not a jammer. Tensions rise as U.S. forces, including carriers and F-22s, build up in the Middle East under President Trump, while Iran drills with Russia and China, and critics note past Chinese radars failed against U.S. attacks in Venezuela.

Pieter Garicano argues in Works in Progress Magazine that Europe's rigid dismissal protections—like 62 months' salary in Spain or €167,000 per worker for Opel's 2014 factory closure—deter firms from high-stakes bets in EVs, AI, or space tech. While Volkswagen outspends U.S. rivals on R&D, it sticks to safe improvements rather than breakthroughs, and economists link this to Europe's lag in AI chips and mRNA vaccines. Critics cite studies showing protections can spur innovation, plus successes in flexicurity models like Denmark's, but many call for reforms to boost dynamism without sacrificing social stability.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Europe boasts educated workers and solid infrastructure, yet incomes have fallen 20 percent behind U.S. levels since 2000. A new article pins the gap on strict firing rules that make bold risks too costly for companies.
