Hi,

I am currently writing an English text and I still have doubts concerning an expression I used. The sentence is the following:

International crises such as the Ukraine conflict continue to arouse worldwide an uncertain look into the economic future.

My question is if I can say "arouse a look." I also thought about "continue to spread uncertainity with regard to the economic future."

I would really appreciate your help since I want to write a really good text which doesn't sound like a translation.

Thank you so much in advance!!

Thank you for your reply. I already had this gutt feeling that "arouse a look" doesn't work but wanted to be sure.

I've now written: International crises such as the Ukraine conflict continue to spread uncertainty worldwide about the economic future.

I hope that works :)
