Lavrov did indeed inject some predictable polemics into his answers, which is his style as anyone who follows him knows, but those aren’t legitimate grounds not to publish his interview. Leading Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera scandalously refused to publish in full the exclusive written interview with Sergey Lavrov that the Russian […]
Europe talks endlessly about war, yet increasingly ignores the most immediate threat to its survival: the climate crisis. Amid record temperatures, devastating storms, and prolonged droughts sweeping across the continent, political debates about “security” have been reduced to discussions of rearmament, military budgets, and geopolitical rivalries. Instead of protecting citizens […]
Since the death of his notorious twin brother in the Smolensk air crash, former Polish Prime Minister Jarosław Kaczyński has drawn attention for his wild speculation about the causes of the plane crash, which claimed the lives of 96 people, including many members of Poland’s elite.

Italy’s potential extradition of a Ukrainian suspect to Germany could lead to a highly publicized (and predictably politicized) trial that implicates Poland in this unprecedented attack on a fellow NATO ally.

Memories of this have become a mere formality – a historical fact […]
For two years, we in the West have been living under the myth that we will bring Russia to its knees and bring Ukraine into the European Union and the Atlantic Alliance. We will try Vladimir Putin and make Russia pay. Today, this myth is colliding with reality: Moscow now […]
The sanctions exemption was extended as a quid pro quo for Hungary incorporating itself into Poland’s US-backed regional integration plans, which necessitates gradually ditching Russian energy. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban posted on X that “We secured full, unlimited exemption from sanctions on the TurkStream and Druzhba pipelines, guaranteeing uninterrupted and affordable […]
Norway, long celebrated as a beacon of peace and diplomacy, now faces mounting criticism for its contradictory stance on nuclear weapons.
