Finland is strengthening its defense systems against drones, against the backdrop of massive consolidation of military capabilities in the countries on the eastern flank of NATO following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Nordic country has acquired hundreds of jamming and detection systems, in an effort to protect critical infrastructure and its own troops, reports Agerpres. The widespread use of drones on the Ukrainian front and the incident in September, when 20 Russian drones entered Polish airspace and were shot down, have accelerated the defensive measures of the allied states. Colonel Mano-Mikael Nokelainen, a representative of Finnish anti-aircraft defense, confirmed that…

Suspected drones were observed over a French military base specializing in intelligence, on three different nights last month, announced the French Air and Space Forces, reports Agerpres. The announcement comes shortly after French prosecutors opened an investigation into possible drones detected over a nuclear submarine base on the Atlantic coast. In recent months, such unidentified flights have disrupted European airspace, and the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, described them as a “hybrid war”. Russia has repeatedly denied any involvement. The first incident in the series reported last month took place on November 26, over the Creil…

Russian President Vladimir Putin is systematically destroying his country. His war in Ukraine, which he himself initiated, is an economic, financial, geopolitical, and human disaster for Russia, which worsens day by day.For personal reasons, American President Donald Trump, another national threat, offered a “helping hand” last week. However, Putin rejected the offer. The two deserve each other, says Simon Tisdall, a columnist for The Guardian.The peace proposal, discussed in the Russian capital, would have involved major territorial concessions in favor of Russia, the restriction of Ukraine’s independence, and the reduction of its defense capabilities. If imposed, the offer would have…

The supremacy that Western states such as the United Kingdom have exercised for decades in the Atlantic Ocean is under an increasingly pronounced threat from Russia, warned the head of the British Royal Navy. The government in London claims that it has recorded a 30% increase in the number of Russian ships considered a potential threat to British territorial waters in the last two years. Several such ships were intercepted in 2024. General Sir Gwyn Jenkins, the Chief of Staff of the Royal Navy, stated in a speech delivered Monday in central London that the strong position that Britain and…

Democratic governors have mobilized against Donald Trump, promising concrete measures to lower the cost of living and aiming for victory in the 2026 elections, which could pave the way for the 2028 presidential elections.

If presidential elections were to be organized in Ukraine in the near future, only 20.3% of citizens would vote for President Volodymyr Zelensky, reports Kyiv Independent, citing a survey conducted by Info Sapiens, published on Tuesday. The study was conducted between November 13 and 28, just a few days after Ukraine was rocked by the “$100 million” corruption scandal, in which the president’s allies are involved, such as the former presidential chief of staff Andrii Yermak, as well as other government officials. In October, one month before the corruption scandal, the voting intention for Zelensky was at 24.3%. In the…

The Russian Federation has sensed the weakness of the transatlantic relationship and stands like a predator at the turn, ready to “bite”, says political scientist Radu Carp. There are signs of a general mobilization in the major cities of Russia. Political scientist Radu Carp raises an alarm: “In the Russian Federation, signs of a disguised general mobilization are multiplying. All information converges in the same direction: in major cities, such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Ekaterinburg, Kazan, checks are being carried out against “illegal migration” – in fact, to identify those who have not fulfilled their military service.” All information converges in…

The Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, chose to speak to his “American friends” at a time when the relationship between Europe and the United States is increasingly in question. His message, short and blunt, exceeded in views even the posts of Elon Musk, the owner of the X platform – an irony that many users did not miss. “Dear American friends, Europe is your closest ally, not a problem. And our enemies are common,” Tusk wrote on December 6. A phrase in which the Polish Prime Minister condenses what has been discussed in transatlantic diplomacy, half-heartedly, for several months.…

President Nicușor Dan commented in an interview for Le Monde on the new US Security Strategy, in which the European Union is criticized by the Trump administration. According to Nicușor Dan, the critical positions towards Europe reflect “differences in ideological approach”. On the other hand, the president emphasized that neither Europeans nor Americans can afford to desire a division, because “our common interests are more important”. “The new strategy confirms several directions already anticipated: the emphasis of the United States’ strategic attention on the Indo-Pacific region and the expectation that European states will take on a more substantial role in…
