Debates and divided opinions on the international stories people are talking about.
- Russia and China vetoed a US-backed resolution to keep UN experts monitoring Iran's nuclear sanctions, ending independent oversight just as the IAEA referred Iran's non-compliance to the Security Council for the first time in 20 years. Legitimate pushback against a biased process, or Russia and China running interference for Tehran?
- A UN fact-finding mission says it has reasonable grounds to believe the US committed war crimes in Iran with February strikes on a school and a sports facility. Accountability for wartime failures, or a rush to judgment?
- A UN fact-finding mission says foreign recruiters and up to 2,000 Colombian mercenaries are fueling Sudan's civil war for the paramilitary RSF, with support networks running through the UAE. Should outside backers face real consequences, or is this just how proxy wars work now?
- The EU pledged over $200 million to Greenland as Trump keeps pushing to annex it, with the EU's Ursula von der Leyen declaring 'Greenland's future is for the people of Greenland and Denmark to decide, no one else.' Smart counter to Trump, or Europe overplaying its hand?
- As Trump tariffs and '51st state' taunts strain the relationship, Canada's PM Mark Carney is pushing the EU to create a new 'associate member' status just for Canada. Smart hedge against an unreliable neighbor, or an unrealistic pivot away from the U.S.?
- Trump sent envoys to meet Putin in Moscow while Russian strikes kept hitting Ukraine. Real diplomacy, or rewarding bad behavior?
- Israel captured a top Hamas security official as ceasefire violations pile up in Gaza. Is the ceasefire already dead?
