Ukrainian MP Mykola Tyshchenko has received a suspicion notice from NABU and SAP, accused of demanding over $1 million for non-interference in call center activities, money laundering, and submitting false declarations. Separately, South Korean tech firms Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix plan significant investments, including approximately $520 billion for four new chip factories and $356.36 billion for three AI data centers. European aluminum producers are pressing Brussels to close a loophole facilitating sanctioned Russian aluminum's entry into the EU. Meanwhile, sovereign funds and central banks managing $29 trillion are shifting investments towards energy assets and raising concerns about the US dollar's future. Volkswagen is reportedly considering selling assets such as PowerCo or Ducati after layoffs, though this may not fully stabilize the automaker. Sources: Forbes Ukraine
