The Americans landed like the 101st Airborne Division in Normandy, turning tranquil Davos into Omaha Beach.
It’s been a year now of waking up and going to bed wondering who Trump is going to lash out at next. Which is probably a huge waste of time—at the rate he’s going, he’ll have picked a fight with everyone in no time. Ushering in a period of international insecurity and uncertainty in the […]
Not since World War II has there been such a clear rift within the Euro-Atlantic alliance. A rift that is deepening and widening almost daily as the result of a reckless and incoherent policy being pursued by the US
As we embark on 2026, there’s no doubt that relations have de-escalated, but equally so that they now find themselves at a crossroads.
In 2026, the international community will be called upon to address two open wounds and a fundamental problem.
I now feel that we can wish our readers and their families health and happiness for the holiday period with relative confidence and in good faith.
The Second Cold War broke out suddenly and unannounced between the US and Europe and as it expands to encompass ever more areas, there is little indication where it will go from here
What can change in a region that already has 7,000 years of history, countless wars and scars, treaties and conflicts under its belt, and seen more than its fair share of both triumphs and disasters, great civilizations and world-altering religions?

Across Europe, if no one party ends up with an absolute parliamentary majority after the elections, it will collaborate with other parties to rule the land. In Greece, none of the parties want to work with any of the others—or that’s what they’ve said, at least
As someone rightly noted recently, the needle really does seem to be stuck and there’s no indication it will be getting unstuck any time soon.

If you want to become an international energy hub, if you want to claim a distinct niche for yourself on the new geopolitical map, you cannot welcome the future with Kalashnikovs and clans on Crete.
The rearmament of Europe and Turkey’s activities in the wider region bring a question that has long exercised Greek politics back to the fore. What sort of Turkey do we want? Obviously, the question is rhetorical. No nation, Turkey or any other, is ever going to ask us what kind of country we would like […]
“The Greece that resists, the Greece that persists” has lost its bard. Because this was the Greece Dionysis Savvopoulos hymned in his songs for sixty plus years. When times were hard and when the livin’ was easy. Through joys and hardships. To applause and jeers. On occasions of celebration and of mourning. A Greece that […]
But who will be in that government? Listen to the candidates’ proclamations, and you’ll come away with the impression that there will never be a government, given that no one is willing to cooperate with anyone
“Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning,” Churchill said after the Allied victory at El Alamein. And that’s where we are now with Gaza. There can be no doubt that the initial agreement on the ceasefire and the […]
The inquest on Tempe has finished and we can expect a trial date to be set for the coming months. The Agricultural Subsidies Agency (OPEKEPE) is in court, and the first convictions are coming through
When Mitsotakis' meeting with Erdogan was canceled, the Turks didn’t even issue a statement, just as they hadn’t announced the meeting in the first place
And so the Prime Minister will be in New York from tomorrow for the UN General Assembly—at which, it’s been announced, he will also be meeting with President Erdogan.
