**US Pressure Could End Russia’s War in Ukraine**
The Financial Times has published its annual forecast for 2025. According to the publication, increased US pressure on Moscow could lead to a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine.
**A Peace Deal Might Be Possible**
The Financial Times predicts that a peace deal will end Russia’s war against Ukraine. However, this would require significant US pressure on Moscow. The publication suggests that Ukraine might agree to a deal where Russia keeps control of currently occupied areas in practice but not legally, with some land exchanges possible.
**Economic Changes Ahead**
The forecast also mentions economic changes ahead. With Trump returning to the White House, new trade tensions are expected. The publication predicts that he will place new tariffs on imports from China and possibly from Mexico and Canada. On a more positive note, Bitcoin is expected to rise significantly, reaching $200,000.
**Advances in Technology**
The Financial Times also forecasts advances in technology, particularly in AI. New tools are expected to be able to handle everyday tasks automatically. However, electric car sales are predicted to stay under 25% of global sales as interest drops outside China.
**Looking Back at Past Predictions**
The publication’s past predictions were mostly correct. They accurately forecasted that the US and EU would keep supporting Ukraine and that the Israel-Hamas war wouldn’t spread across the region. However, they incorrectly anticipated Trump winning the presidency.
