Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan: Europe seems unwilling to accept Türkiye into the EU. Joining the EU is not our priority; Europe is the one thats losing out.August 15th - According to the Financial Times, Kyivs air defense forces were almost helpless in the face of a recent round of Russian ballistic missile attacks. The reason is simple: their Patriot missile defense systems ran out of interceptor missiles. This severe shortage of the only weapon capable of intercepting Russian ballistic missiles launched at Ukraine is exposing a critical vulnerability in Ukraines air defense system. As Moscow intensifies its offensive ahead of winter, the pressure on Ukraines air defense is further escalating. Ukrainian officials stated that the limited number of interceptor missiles supplied by the United States has been exhausted in recent weeks. Russia launched a missile attack on Kyiv on August 5th, followed by a second attack three days later. In both attacks, Ukraine failed to intercept any incoming ballistic missiles. Ukrainian officials revealed that due to the increasingly serious shortage of interceptor missiles, the Ukrainian Air Force has stopped routinely publishing the number of missiles launched by Russia to avoid revealing the number of missiles it failed to intercept.August 15th - According to the website of the China Maritime Safety Administration, the Jiangmen Maritime Safety Administration issued a navigation warning stating that military training will be conducted in parts of the South China Sea from 00:00 to 12:00 daily from August 16th to 17th, and entry is prohibited.Russian Foreign Ministry: The potential US and Turkish arms supply plans to Kyiv would weaken Moscow’s relations with Washington and Ankara.Russian Foreign Ministry: A spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry stated that the US and Turkey have been asked to explain their reported plans to provide weapons to Kyiv.

NZD/USD Price Analysis: Protects NZ Inflation-Induced Support Break; 0.6140 in Sight

During the mid-Asian session on Thursday, NZD/USD bears maintain control at the lowest levels in five weeks while defending New Zealand (NZ) losses caused by inflation near 0.6160. This justifies not only the weaker-than-anticipated New Zealand inflation, but also the recent break of one-month-old horizontal support, which is now immediate resistance, as well as the bearish MACD signals.

 

As measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) policy purists were unpleasantly surprised by New Zealand's (NZ) first-quarter (Q1) inflation. Despite this, the Quarter-over-Quarter change in the New Zealand Consumer Price Index (CPI) decreases from 1.7% and 1.4%, respectively, to 1.2%.

 

Following the publication of disappointing data, the NZD/USD pair breached a one-month-old horizontal support level, which is now acting as a barrier near 0.6170. The bearish MACD signals are now directing NZD/USD traders toward a horizontal support level that has been in place for 1.5 months and is located near 0.6140.

 

If the NZD/USD bears remain dominant above 0.6140, the 2023 low of 0.6085 cannot be ruled out.

 

The 200-day simple moving average hurdle of 0.6220 becomes crucial for NZD/USD investors to return.

 

If the NZD/USD pair remains above 0.6220, a run up to the previous weekly high around 0.6315 and then to the monthly high of 0.6386 cannot be ruled out.
