    Greenland: Trump’s empire dream in the Arctic

    TEHRAN – Diplomatic tensions between Europe and the United States have flared once again, this time over President Donald Trump’s renewed desire to take over Greenland, the semi-autonomous Danish territory.

    The limits of pragmatism: Persistent fragility in US-PGCC ties 

    SHANGHAI - The year of 2025 saw a new rapprochement between the U.S. and PGCC countries. U.S. President Donald Trump visited Saudi Arabia, UAE and Qatar in May while Qatari Emir and Saudi Crown Prince visited the U.S. in the second half of the year. The reasons behind the latest warming-up could be numerous, but the most important should be that the two sides have simultaneously taken pragmatic approaches in their policies toward the other. And pragmatism will underline the relations between the two in the future.

    Venezuela and the panic of empire: The return of class war

    GOA - When Venezuela’s socialists declare their determination to resist U.S. aggression, they are not issuing a symbolic slogan. They are naming a structural conflict at the heart of the modern world: imperial capitalism versus popular sovereignty. What Donald Trump and the U.S. ruling class dismiss as an “easy target” is in fact a frontline society where the deepest contradictions of global capitalism are exposed — and therefore most feared.
