According to Lianhe Zaobao citing Reuters and AFP, U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the U.S. campaign against Iran is “far from over” and that U.S. forces could soon strike the underground nuclear site at Kuh-e Kolang Gaz La near Natanz. Trump, meeting Lebanese President Joseph Aoun at the White House, said Iran would need 20 to 25 years to rebuild if the war ended now and added that the U.S. was “far from finished” and would not withdraw at this stage. Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei denied on Wednesday that there was any nuclear activity at the site, calling it a pretext for U.S. aggression. Trump also played down the prospect of renewed U.S.-Iran talks, saying Washington was not interested until Tehran was ready for meaningful negotiations. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing on Tuesday that the war had cost USD 37.5 billion, up about USD 8 billion from previous estimates, and said the latest figure covered spending already incurred as well as expected outlays through the end of the fiscal year on September 30. He urged Congress to approve a USD 67 billion supplemental defense spending bill to avoid a serious funding shortfall. The U.S. Central Command said it had completed the 11th consecutive night of strikes on Iran, targeting military operations centers, maritime operations facilities, aircraft hangars, drone storage sites and military logistics infrastructure. The Pentagon also said a U.S. soldier missing after Iran’s attack on Jordan last Friday was believed dead, bringing U.S. military deaths since the war began to 18. إيران's military said any U.S. attack on Iranian nuclear facilities would be viewed as an escalation and that all U.S. interests, along with those of U.S. allies and supporters, would become targets for a strong response.

According to CNBC, President Donald Trump said Tuesday that imported generic medicines would face no tariffs for two years, then a 100% duty for one year before rising to 200%, as his administration weighs measures aimed at boosting U.S. drug manufacturing. The proposal targets a global generic drug industry worth nearly $500 billion and has raised questions about whether producers can shift production to the United States in time. John Murphy III, president and CEO of the Association for Accessible Medicines, said the industry wants policies that support and stabilize access to affordable medicines, while arguing that reimbursement and purchasing pressures continue to discourage more domestic manufacturing. Analysts at Jefferies and Citi said companies with sizable U.S. production, including Amphastar Pharmaceuticals, ANI Pharmaceuticals, Hikma and Fresenius Kabi, appear better positioned, while Teva, Viatris and Apotex have greater exposure because more of their U.S.-sold products are made overseas.

Franklin Templeton's Sandy Kaul said AI agents could become a key blockchain use case, while Visa and Artemis said x402 processed $15 million in adjusted volume.

According to Lianhe Zaobao citing Bloomberg, Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong on Tuesday, July 21, expressed serious concerns to Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi over China’s recent missile test during an ASEAN foreign ministers’ meeting in the Philippines, saying the provocative military action lacked transparency and was not conducive to regional peace and stability. A Chinese submarine launched a ballistic missile carrying a simulated warhead on July 6, with monitoring groups saying it ultimately landed in waters between the Solomon Islands, Nauru and Tuvalu. Wong told media on Wednesday, July 22, that Australia had made clear directly to China that it viewed the launch as destabilizing, and said Canberra wants peace, stability and prosperity in the region and for all countries, including major powers, to abide by international law, especially the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Before meeting Wang, Wong told Bloomberg that the security environment was severe and the Asia-Pacific was undergoing its largest military buildup since World War II, while China’s defense spending has risen by more than 6% a year since 2016. After the meeting, Wang said China was willing to strengthen engagement with Australia, build mutual trust, expand cooperation and promote further progress in bilateral ties, while urging Australia to uphold the principle of noninterference in internal affairs and reject double standards. Meanwhile, Malaysian Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan said the South China Sea code of conduct is likely to be finalized in November at the 49th ASEAN summit in Manila.

According to Foresight News, Strive will initially back Brink, an organization that supports Bitcoin Core and other key Bitcoin infrastructure developers. Strive said the support does not come with any expectation of influence over technical decisions, governance, or protocol direction, and that funding should not be tied to influence claims. The company said institutions that benefit from Bitcoin should view support for the long-term health of its ecosystem as part of their fiduciary duty, and it called on treasury companies, ETF issuers, miners, exchanges, custodians, and financial institutions to share responsibility for maintaining the Bitcoin ecosystem.

According to Jin10, Mitsubishi UFJ analyst Derek Halpenny said in a report that the dollar may still not be clearly affected in the short term by the latest round of U.S. trade uncertainty. He said U.S. President Donald Trump's new tariff plan should broadly replicate Section 122 tariffs due to expire on Friday, so the impact on exchange rates should be limited. He also said current market expectations for U.S. rate hikes and elevated Middle East risks have provided some support for the dollar. However, he said dollar selling could return if trade uncertainty becomes more apparent and investors grow more worried about unpredictable policy and damage to the U.S. economy.
