Hungary's Prime Minister Magyar said that without an agreement on EU funds the 2026 budget deficit will exceed 8% of GDP; even with EU funding support the 2026 deficit could still exceed 7% of GDP.

The China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, with Leike Defense, Beijing Institute of Technology and North China University of Technology, won approval from the Beijing Municipal Science & Technology Commission and the Zhongguancun Administrative Committee to establish the Beijing Key Laboratory for Space-based Intelligent Computing Systems. The lab is focused on on‑orbit deployment of high‑performance AI compute to enable real‑time, intelligent processing of space and air data. It identifies core technical constraints: distributed collaboration across on‑orbit compute payloads, limited processing‑chip performance, insufficient high‑reliability general‑purpose compute, thermal engineering challenges for high power‑density systems, and difficulty deploying AI algorithms in orbit. The lab will pursue full‑stack hardware‑software co‑innovation across architecture, processing chips, computing platforms and intelligent algorithms to develop scalable engineering systems for in‑orbit intelligent data processing.
