Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

On today's podcast:

(1) Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook will hand the reins to hardware boss John Ternus later this year, capping a 15-year tenure that turned the company into a $4 trillion business spanning watches, video streaming and financial services.

(2) Keir Starmer did what he could to get through a parliamentary showdown over his handling of the Peter Mandelson scandal. His fate may now rest with a bureaucrat little known outside Westminster.

(3) President Donald Trump said he’s not likely to extend the two-week ceasefire with Iran, increasing the urgency for negotiators to conclude a deal to end the war.

(4) European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said two main factors around the Iran war are hampering efforts to map out a monetary-policy response.

(5) Chancellor Friedrich Merz said his government rejects “hostile and aggressive tactics” in Germany’s banking industry after Commerzbank AG formally rejected UniCredit SpA’s takeover bid.

(6) Elon Musk snubbed a summons by French prosecutors investigating how AI chatbot Grok was allowed to spew out sexually explicit deepfakes and Holocaust-denying content, according to Agence France-Presse.
