Home SportMorocco stun Belgium with famous World Cup victory to spark wild celebrationsAmmon News - Morocco's supporters raised the roof at Al Thumama Stadium after their team secured a huge World Cup upset in Qatar with a 2-0 victory over Belgium on Sunday. Late goals from Romain Saiss and Zakaria Aboukhlal were enough to secure one of the most famous wins in African sporting history, never mind just in Moroccan folklore – their first at a World Cup in 24 years. Belgium’s crown as group specialists at a World Cup, chasing a record ninth successive victory at this stage of competition, was knocked clean off. Having seen Belgium labour to an unconvincing win in their group opener against Canada this week, Morocco sensed another shock was on the cards. For Morocco, a win against Canada on Thursday will guarantee them a place in the Round of 16.

Tackling the pandemic of debt

Home View PointsTackling the pandemic of debtJosé Antonio Ocampo The COVID-19 pandemic increased low and middle-income countries’ debt levels to a 50-year high. Before COVID-19, the main body providing debt relief to low and middle-income countries was the Paris Club of sovereign creditors. At the end of 2020, the G20 and the Paris Club endorsed the Common Framework for Debt Treatments, which is meant to coordinate and provide debt relief to countries eligible for the Debt Service Suspension Initiative. But several countries that require immediate debt relief are not among those eligible for the Debt Service Suspension Initiative. And, of course, all developing countries should implement structural and fiscal reforms to ensure long-term debt sustainability.

Britain’s new winter of discontent

Home View PointsBritain’s new winter of discontentZaid M. Belbagi The winter of 1978-79 broke records in the UK for both the cold temperatures and snowfall. The bitter cold also set the scene for the country’s most debilitating modern period of industrial action, as uncollected rubbish bags piled up on the streets and bodies were left unburied. This period was dubbed the “Winter of Discontent.” The chaos eventually led to a Conservative Party electoral landslide, breaking the trade unions for a generation. With the government unyielding and households facing the biggest fall in living standards since records began, the current winter of industrial strife is increasingly reminiscent of its 1970s namesake. Though strike action has been going on for several months, the coordination of this activity during the Christmas period has made the impact more acute.

Oil prices rise after Opec+ sticks with output policy as Russia sanctions kick in

Home BusinessOil prices rise after Opec+ sticks with output policy as Russia sanctions kick inAmmon News - Oil prices rose on Monday as China continued to ease Covid-19 curbs while Opec+ stuck to its output targets and European sanctions on Russian crude kicked in. The group said it was ready to address “market developments” and support the “balance of the oil market and its stability if necessary”. On Friday, the G7 and Australia agreed on a $60 price cap on Russian seaborne crude oil after weeks of negotiations with Poland and other Baltic states. Oil prices fell below $90 a barrel last month on concerns about China, the world’s second-largest economy and top crude importer, as it battled near-record Covid-19 cases. “The recent easing of some Covid restrictions in Shanghai may have influenced Opec+'s decision to not change policy,” said Mr Staunovo.
