China critic Jimmy Lai jailed 20 years in landmark Hong Kong case

Hong Kong media tycoon and prominent China critic Jimmy Lai has been sentenced to 20 years in prison in the city’s most high profile national security case. The ruling caps a legal battle that has lasted nearly five years and has drawn widespread international concern.​ Lai, the 78 year old founder of the now closed pro democracy newspaper Apple Daily, was convicted on two counts of conspiracy to collude with foreign forces and one count of publishing seditious materials. The judges said his offences fell within the harshest penalty tier for national security crimes of a grave nature.​ The court described Lai as the mastermind of what it called persistent collusion conspiracies seeking sanctions, blockades and other hostile acts against China by foreign governments, including the United States. Prosecutors said the network behind him involved Apple Daily staff, activists and […]

India, EU seal landmark trade deal to slash tariffs on most goods

India and the European Union have reached a landmark trade agreement that will sharply cut or eliminate tariffs on most goods, opening up India’s vast market and deepening ties between the two economies. The pact aims to reduce duties on 96.6 percent of traded goods by value and is expected to double EU exports to India by 2032 while saving European companies about 4 billion euros in customs duties.​ Under the deal, the EU will phase out tariffs on 99.5 percent of goods imported from India over seven years, including marine products, leather, textiles, chemicals, rubber, base metals and gems and jewellery. Sensitive farm products such as soya, beef, sugar, rice and dairy are excluded from the agreement.​ For European carmakers, India will slash tariffs on imported vehicles from as high as 110 percent to 10 percent over five years, […]

Trump links Greenland threat to Nobel Peace Prize snub

United States President Donald Trump has linked his push for control of Greenland and his tariff threats against European allies to his failure to win the Nobel Peace Prize. In a message to Norway’s Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere, he wrote that he no longer feels obliged to think only of peace after the Norwegian Nobel Committee passed him over.​ Trump complained that Norway did not award him the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, which went instead to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado. He said he can now focus on what he considers good and proper for the United States, while still claiming peace remains a priority.​ The president has intensified his demand for the U.S. to take control of Greenland from Denmark, arguing that Copenhagen cannot defend the island from Russia or China. He has questioned why Denmark has […]

EU weighs tough response to Trump’s Greenland tariffs

European Union officials and lawmakers are calling for the first ever use of the bloc’s Anti Coercion Instrument in response to new tariff threats by United States President Donald Trump over Greenland. Trump has vowed escalating tariffs on Denmark, Sweden, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, Britain and Norway until Washington is allowed to buy Greenland.​ The affected countries already face US tariffs of 10 and 15 percent and have each sent small contingents of military personnel to Greenland. Cyprus, which holds the rotating EU presidency, has summoned EU ambassadors to an emergency meeting in Brussels to discuss the response.​ A source close to French President Emmanuel Macron said he is working to coordinate a common European strategy and supports activating the Anti Coercion Instrument. The tool could restrict US access to public tenders in the EU or limit trade in […]

Denmark’s Greenland dilemma: Defending a territory moving towards independence

Denmark is under pressure to defend Greenland from growing United States interest, even as the Arctic territory moves steadily towards full independence. The issue will be high on the agenda when US Secretary of State Marco Rubio meets Danish and Greenlandic leaders next week.​ Greenland has enjoyed greater autonomy since 1979 and a 2009 agreement recognises the right of its people to choose independence. All major parties on the island support eventual statehood, and the largest opposition party now wants to bypass Copenhagen and open direct talks with Washington.​ Analysts say President Donald Trump’s threat to take control of Greenland, by purchase or force, has triggered strong solidarity for Denmark in Europe. But it has also exposed a paradox, as Denmark spends diplomatic capital to protect a territory whose long term goal is to one day walk away.​ Greenland’s position […]

Trump renews push to annex Greenland

Donald Trump has once again floated the idea of the United States annexing Greenland, despite firm opposition from Danish and Greenlandic leaders, who have urged him to end what they describe as repeated threats toward the Arctic territory. Speaking to reporters, the US president said Washington “needs Greenland from the standpoint of national security,” repeating arguments he has made in the past about the island’s strategic importance and mineral resources. Greenland’s Prime Minister, Jens Frederik Nielsen, rejected the proposal outright, calling it unrealistic and unacceptable. “That’s enough now,” he said, adding that any suggestion of US control over Greenland was a “fantasy.” He stressed that Greenland was open to dialogue, but only through established diplomatic channels and with full respect for international law. Denmark’s Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, also responded strongly, stating that the United States has no right to […]

EU leaders meet in Brussels over €210bn Ukraine war funding

European Union leaders are meeting in Brussels today to decide whether to release €210 billion from frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine’s war effort against Russia. The funds are largely held by Euroclear, a Belgium based financial clearing house, where Russian assets have been blocked since Moscow’s full scale invasion in 2022.​ The money is considered crucial to Ukraine’s ability to continue fighting and keep the state functioning. Without fresh international support, Kyiv is projected to face bankruptcy in early 2026, leaving it unable to pay soldiers, police, civil servants or buy weapons and ammunition.​ Failure by EU leaders to approve the package would be a heavy blow to the bloc’s credibility. Analysts warn it could weaken the EU’s influence in any future peace talks and allow Vladimir Putin to exploit divisions within Europe.​

EU leaders in crunch talks on €210bn frozen Russian assets for Ukraine

EU leaders are meeting in Brussels for high stakes talks on whether to channel around €210bn in frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine’s war effort against Russia. Most of the money is held at Belgian based clearing house Euroclear, where interest and other proceeds from the immobilised funds have been accruing since sanctions were imposed in 2022.​ The funds are seen as vital to Ukraine’s ability to keep fighting, with officials warning that Kyiv could face bankruptcy in early 2026 without fresh external support. A financial collapse would leave the government unable to pay soldiers, police, civil servants or purchase weapons and ammunition.​ Leaders are debating proposals to use the frozen Russian assets as collateral to raise long term loans for Ukraine on capital markets, leaving the principal untouched for now. Under the plan, Ukraine might not have to repay […]

Zelensky meets Pope, refines response to new US peace plan

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has met Pope Leo XIV in Italy as he prepares an updated response to a revised United States plan to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The meeting took place at the Pope’s country residence in Castel Gandolfo near Rome, during a wider European tour focused on talks with allies about war and peace efforts.​ Zelensky said Washington had cut its original 28-point proposal to 20 points after intensive talks with Ukrainian officials over the weekend. He explained that Ukrainian and European negotiators will now work through those 20 points and that Kyiv will send its formal, revised position to the United States soon.​ According to Zelensky, the main obstacles in the US plan involve possible territorial concessions and the level of long-term security guarantees for Ukraine. He stressed that Ukraine has no legal or moral right […]

EU seals deal to end Russian gas imports by autumn 2027

The European Union has reached a political deal to ban all imports of Russian natural gas by autumn 2027 as part of efforts to cut off a major source of funding for Moscow’s war in Ukraine.​ The agreement, struck between EU member states and the European Parliament, sets a binding timeline to phase out both pipeline gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Russia after years of dependence on its supplies.​ Under the deal, long-term LNG contracts with Russian suppliers will be banned from January 1, 2027, while new long-term pipeline gas contracts will be prohibited from September 30, 2027, at the latest by November 1, 2027, depending on storage levels.​ Short-term contracts will be phased out earlier, with LNG contracts ending from April 25, 2026, and short-term pipeline gas deals stopping from June 17, 2026.​ EU Energy Commissioner Dan […]
