Arctic security can only be achieved together.
This is why the proposed additional tariffs are a mistake, especially between long-standing allies.
The EU and US have agreed to a trade deal last July.
A deal is a deal.
And when friends shake hands, it must mean something.

The US has reduced its presence in Greenland to a single base and less than 200 troops.
If Russia were an imminent threat, Washington could simply deploy more forces tomorrow under the existing defense treaty.
Trump is just inventing a security crisis to justify an annexation

Chants of “This year is the year of blood, Seyed Ali will fall!” rang out at Tehran’s Behesht Zahra cemetery as anti-regime protests reignited. In Hamedan, heavily armed forces patrol the streets in near-curfew conditions. Protests continue in Karaj and parts of Hamedan, though at reduced intensity.

It's getting violent in Tehran’s Chitgar and Punak districts, and in Mashhad. New reports suggest IRGC forces have begun using live fire against demonstrators. Multiple sources confirm crowds are much bigger than yesterday.
