E70 Armenia: A Decision for Europe?
Armenia is moving closer to Europe politically. The focus of the European Political Community meeting in Yerevan was the country's change of course: After decades of Russian dependence, the loss of Nagorno-Karabakh, and Moscow's lack of protection, Armenia has been increasingly seeking closer ties with the EU and new security policy perspectives since 2024.
-
E71 Russia: War weariness?
Traditionally, Moscow celebrates the end of World War II with a large military parade. But this year it will be smaller: The Kremlin fears Ukrainian drone attacks.

-

Democratic Republic of Congo: President Tshisekedi proposes postponing the presidential elections scheduled for 2028 if the conflict in the east of the country is not resolved by then.

-
E73 France and Africa: A New Strategy
French President Macron has chosen Kenya and its capital Nairobi, home to one of East Africa's largest metropolitan areas, for an Africa-France summit.

-
E74 Great Britain: A Time of Divisions
The recent elections in Great Britain confirm the fragmentation of the political landscape. In the local elections, Reform UK came out on top, followed by the Labour Party, the Liberal Democrats, the Conservatives, and the Greens. This serves as a reminder that the United Kingdom is the result of a unique political construct.
-
E75 Trump and Xi: A Showdown
Given Donald Trump's chaotic governance, China likes to present itself as a neutral and stable state.

On the occasion of the meeting between Trump and Xi Jinping in Beijing: an assessment.
-
E76 Hantavirus: Fear of a new pandemic?

-
E77 Gulf Crisis: The Emirates Targeted
Since the Israeli-American offensive, a large part of Iranian retaliation has been directed at the United Arab Emirates: 551 ballistic missiles, 29 cruise missiles, 2,263 drones… The latest attack: a strike against the Barakah nuclear power plant. This provides an opportunity to try to understand why the Emirates are particularly targeted by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
-
E78 Putin in China: A Weak Friend
Xi Jinping is portraying Beijing as the center of power: After Donald Trump, he also received Vladimir Putin.

While Moscow is weakened by war and crisis, Beijing's influence is growing – and the balance of power between the two partners is shifting.
-
E79 Asia: An Aging Population
Busan, South Korea's vibrant port city, is facing a demographic collapse: Since 1995, 600,000 people have left the city, and almost half of the remaining 3.2 million inhabitants are over 50. Young people are moving to Seoul – but jobs and opportunities are scarce. This is an example of Asia's rapid demographic change, which poses existential challenges for entire regions.
-
E80 Lithuania: Air Raid Alert
In the Lithuanian capital, Vilnius, members of parliament (the Seimas) were informed via loudspeaker on Wednesday of an imminent aerial threat, prompting them to seek shelter.

Don't forget Sudan: The country has been at war for more than three years. 15 million people have been displaced, tens of thousands killed – according to the UN, one of the world's largest humanitarian crises. The conflict also highlights the growing importance of drones. According to the UN, drones have killed 880 civilians in Sudan since last January.
-
E82 Belarus: Ukraine worried
The Orechnik hypersonic missile that struck Kyiv on Sunday was launched from Belarus. This is likely part of a new Kremlin strategy: With the Russian army bogged down in the east, it is attempting to regain the upper hand by opening a northern front with Minsk's support. Belarus, Russia's backyard, has not always been so compliant.
-
E83 Abraham Accords: Trump, the Pope and the Catholics
In 2020, Donald Trump helped normalize relations between Israel and several Arab countries. Now, as the Middle East is shaken by multiple conflicts, the American president is demanding that Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan and Turkey do the same. A statement that disregards the reality of the dividing lines that currently run through the Middle East.
-
E84 Climate: Cities and Heat
Temperature records have just been broken across Western Europe.

-
E85 Lebanon: Is Israel Pushing Beyond the Limits?
The Israeli flag now flies over the Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon.

-
E86 Global competition in pharmaceuticals
The annual ASCO congress in Chicago, a leading event in cancer research, highlighted U.S. breakthroughs in pancreatic cancer treatment as well as the rapid rise of Chinese biotechnology. China and India now compete directly with the United States and Europe in the global pharmaceutical market.
-
E87 Artificial Intelligence: France Takes the Lead
If foreign investors choose France to build data centers, it is notably because of its nuclear power, which ensures cheaper electricity regardless of the international context.

-
E88 Morocco: The Continent’s Industrial Champion
According to the African Development Bank, Morocco became the continent’s industrial champion in 2026, overtaking South Africa.

-
E89 Middle East: 100 Days of War
Despite the "ceasefire" between the United States and Iran, the situation seems to be slipping out of Donald Trump's control: Israel continues to strike Beirut’s southern suburbs, Hezbollah continues to launch rockets and drones at northern Israel, Iran fires ballistic missiles at the Jewish state, which in turn strikes Iran again in response... The Middle East has rarely appeared more unstable.
-
E90 Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un: an alliance of mutual interest
Xi Jinping’s visit to North Korea serves several purposes: to showcase China’s diplomatic power, but also to remind Vladimir Putin that the Pyongyang-Moscow alliance, strengthened in the context of the war in Ukraine, must not overshadow the Pyongyang-Beijing relationship. For his part, Kim Jong-un benefits from playing both sides - Russian and Chinese.
-
E91 Bahrain: The End of Calm
Following the destruction of an Apache helicopter, Donald Trump decided to strike Iran once again. Iran, in turn, targeted several countries in the region, including Bahrain.

-

Despite meeting all U.S. entry requirements, World Cup referee Omar Artan was denied entry and returned to Somalia, a country previously described by the U.S. president as a terrorist haven.

-
E93 G7 Summit: In What Context?
As the G7 gathers in Évian, leaders aim to address major global crises and support efforts to end ongoing conflicts. Discussions include a planned U.S.-Iran agreement expected to be signed in Geneva.

-
E94 France-Senegal: A Changing Relationship
In Senegal, Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko, a leading advocate of stronger national sovereignty, was dismissed by President Bassirou Diomaye Faye, once his close ally.

-
E95 Political Assassinations: Putin’s Version of Warfare
Semion Skrepetski, a Russian cartoonist who criticized Putin’s regime, was shot dead in Poland on June 15.

This provides an opportunity to map some of the political assassinations allegedly carried out by the Kremlin across the former Soviet region and Europe.
-
E96 American technology: are Europeans dependent?

-
E97 Latin America’s Shift to the Right
Will Abelardo de la Espriella reshape Colombia’s future?

His rise reflects a broader trend as political dynamics across Latin America continue to shift rightward.
-
E98 United Kingdom: Political Instability

-
E101 Crimea: Strategy of Isolation
Moscow: Putin delivered a speech ahead of the parliamentary elections in September. In it, he made a rare admission that the country was facing problems.

-
E102 Europe: Why the Heatwaves Are Intensifying

Ireland is assuming the EU presidency for six months. There is no shortage of crucial issues: economic recovery, the new migration pact, ties with Washington... and, of course, security.

-

-

Against the backdrop of today’s conflicts, questions are being raised about the effectiveness of the United Nations. Russia’s increasingly devastating attacks in Ukraine, the crisis around the Strait of Hormuz, the conflict between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia, and Israel’s settlement expansion in the West Bank paint a bleak picture for UN Secretary-General António Guterres, who is due to leave office at the end of 2026. Yet the UN has contributed to ending or containing wars in the past — from the Iran-Iraq War and the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan to the aftermath of Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait. Its history, however, also includes major failures.

Since challenging Alexander Lukashenko in the 2020 presidential election, opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya has become a symbol of resistance. Forced into exile for her safety, she now lives in Poland and warns that Lukashenko serves Vladimir Putin’s strategy to weaken and divide Europe.
-
E133 Trump and Russia, a Long History
Facing low poll ratings ahead of the US midterm elections, Donald Trump has struck a deal with Vladimir Putin to buy Russian diesel in an effort to lower fuel prices, which have surged due to the war with Iran that Trump himself launched. However, the initial shipment is too small to significantly affect prices at the pump.
-

-
E138 Netanyahu's Wars
