They are an easy bunch to demonise, and to a certain extent, they should be. The God Chef, the collector of Michelin stars; the veteran of the kitchen, with all the cuts, bruises and wounds to show for it; the brute who terrorises the staff, mocking their lack of adeptness, […]
The administration figures Cuba will be an easier nut to crack than Iran. The Trump administration has declared a two-week deadline on Cuba to release two “high-profile” prisoners, Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara and Maykel Castillo Pérez (aka Maykel Osorbo), described as dissident artists from the San Isidro movement (Movimiento San Isidro, MSI). Alcántara […]
The Earth is in a fine mess, but human beings sealed in laboratories full of energy and vigour, attached to screens, and running tests about conditions in space, have another reason to cheer. Between April 1 and April 11, the Artemis II undertook a flyby of the Moon and returned […]

In the geopolitics of the South Caucasus, Russia has for many years played the role of a force that maintained the balance, security, and practical ties between the countries of the region. That is why the new report by the Turan Research Center, titled “Moscow’s Last Stand in the South […]
The war launched by the United States in February has already cost Europe tens of billions of euros. The Middle East is paying in thousands of lives. The White House, meanwhile, continues to insist it acted correctly. There is a particular kind of cynicism embedded in the current architecture of […]
The measure was seen as a “threat” by the US. The current geopolitical transition process has a profound impact on how countries conduct trade. Global political decentralization – with the emergence of new regional centers of power – has the immediate consequence of giving rise to new trends in economics […]
Immigration policy in the United States has, in recent years, ceased to be a matter of administrative regulation and instead become a field of open social confrontation. At the center of this conflict stands Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a federal agency increasingly perceived not as a bureaucratic institution, but […]
