Digital Asset progress will march on even without the Clarity Act, as the SEC and CFTC keep delivering frameworks for digital assets to succeed - such as the Tokenized Equity innovation exemption launched this week. It's always a pleasure to speak with @KellyCNBC and the @CNBC team.

SCO at 25: Marching Forward in Unity As an old Chinese saying goes, "No mountain or ocean can distance people who have shared aspirations." Founded in 2001, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) has grown into a comprehensive regional organization with the world's widest geographical coverage, largest population and enormous development potential. Over the past 25 years, SCO member states have consistently upheld the Shanghai Spirit, deepening cooperation in politics, security, economy and people-to-people exchanges. The SCO has blazed a trail for a new model of regional cooperation and set a fine example for a new type of international relations. At the new starting point of its 25th anniversary, the SCO is forging ahead toward building a community with a shared future for humanity. To mark the occasion, People's Daily Online presents the documentary "SCO at 25: Marching Forward in Unity." Through 25 years of archival footage and real‑life stories interpreting the Shanghai Spirit, the documentary captures how the SCO translates consensus into concrete actions and pools forces for stability amid global shifts.

Break out the marching band, America! Congress has finally done it! I mean, they still haven't passed the SAVE America Act, or a balanced budget, or spending cuts. But the House has passed bill to make Daylight Saving Time permanent! Of course, it'll probably die in the Senate. But FINALLY! I'm so glad I voted for these amazing people. And if you thought that was great, get this: they also NAMED A POST OFFICE! Now that's what I pay taxes for! Still no SAVE America Act. But at least they're tucking it away into a "must-pass" bill. I sure hope John Thune doesn't notice and remove it or something. Surely, that'll never happen!

INDIAN ARMY MARCHING CONTINGENT TO PARTICIPATE IN SEYCHELLES’ 50TH NATIONAL DAY CELEBRATIONS The Indian Army marching contingent is set to participate in the 50th National Day celebrations of Seychelles on 29 June 2026, commemorating the Golden Jubilee of Seychelles’ Independence. The celebrations will be attended by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi as the Guest of Honour. India and Seychelles share longstanding historical ties. Over the years, the relationship has evolved into a strong strategic partnership encompassing defence cooperation, development, culture and trade. The Indian Army contingent comprises 32 personnel from the Assam Regiment and is led by Captain Aryan H. Deolekar. An Indian Navy marching contingent accompanied by a military band is also participating in the celebrations, reflecting the close and enduring defence partnership between the two countries. Participation of Indian Armed Forces contingents in national celebrations of friendly foreign countries serves as a symbol of mutual trust, military camaraderie and shared commitment towards strengthening bilateral relations. Such engagements reinforce defence cooperation and underscore India’s role as a reliable partner in promoting peace, stability and security in the Indian Ocean Region. Indian Armed Forces contingents have previously represented the nation at prominent international ceremonial events, including the 237th Bastille Day Parade in France in 2023, the Victory Day Parade in Bangladesh in 2021, and the Victory Day Parade in Russia in 2015 and 2020. India’s participation in Seychelles’ Golden Jubilee celebrations reaffirms the special partnership between the two countries and highlights the growing depth of bilateral engagement across diverse sectors.
