and also some green products and therefore we have to create our own industrial standouts and serenity. so this is a mutual interests of europe and the u. s. and to make this mutual interest becoming a strong partnership, we need to solve some problems with milla has mentioned some concrete items. the idea behind it is that the strong green industrial market in the u. s. and a strong green industrial market in europe will help each other that we boot a green bridge over the atlantic and help each other. because the goal is the same . fighting global warming and creating a new industrial resilience and industrial independence. in a way for a german economy minister, robert hubbard. they're speaking in washington. over to wall street,

it really looks like, like, for a voice, the pedantic, i mean, not gone, but getting better than people are looking for experiences. so they see where they spend their money. so not so much for goods any more. but for experience as like travel and said something where the entire industry profits from we saw that was the numbers from hertz. we recently saw that was the numbers from the big airlines . and now we also seen it was the cruise industry. so at least for now things are looking at promising your i'd people have to save money, but obviously they save it on $1.00 end but still spend it when it comes to travel . ryder finance course money ins, quarter new york. thank you. was 61 years ago to date u. s. under president john f. kennedy imposed embargo on all trade with cuba. the island nation ruled by revolutionary fidel castro on the policy, help fries many aspects of the cute human economy. and has driven hubert anger against the us. as was anger against his own government,
