Putin hasn’t yet confirmed whether he would attend the December summit hosted in the U.S. His last in-person attendance at a G20 meeting was in 2019 — three years before Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Kallas’ remarks come amid growing frustration among EU countries over Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov’s attendance at a G20 ministerial gathering in Atlanta. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who was hosting the meeting, called off the traditional family photo after European officials refused to stand beside Lavrov. Kallas said in the interview that “we don’t want to stand next to…
Since its ratification in the 1990s, a group of wealthy countries including Canada, Australia, Japan, the U.K., Switzerland, Norway and some EU members have been funding efforts to implement the Convention. Now, those countries want other high-income nations to chip in more. “We all know that we need more resources to ensure the effective implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework,” said Jessika Roswall, the EU’s environment commissioner. But during the negotiations, non-donor countries — which include China, Saudi Arabia, Russia and Argentina — pushed back against any kind of income-related criteria to determine who should or shouldn’t be paying. The deadlock…
“That was, in fact, a topic that surprised me a bit, given the intensity with which it was presented,” Merz told reporters before returning from his five-day tour of East Asian countries on Friday evening. Merz admitted the Franco-German proposal had “sparked considerable concern in the region — in Singapore, Japan, and Korea — that we may be facing a new wave of protectionism in Europe, that we are closing ourselves off from other countries.” The chancellor vowed to take those complaints “very seriously” and to raise them at the next EU leaders’ summit. The bloc’s leaders are set to…
Published on 31 October 2026 – 14:10 GMT+1 The Latin words arcana and borealis mean “hidden knowledge” and “the north”, two elements at the heart of the Finnish National Gallery’s latest exhibition. “Arcana Borealis – Northern Women and Esotericism” is the first large-scale museum show to examine how female artists from across the Nordic region and Sápmi have engaged with esotericism, spirituality and alternative systems of knowledge from the 19th century to the present day. The exhibition brings together more than 200 works by 50 artists and features both well-known and overlooked artists, including Hilma af Klint, Tyra Kleen and…
However, he rejected demands from Caribbean countries for Britain to pay financial reparations for the slave trade, saying that they would be the wrong solution. “I do not think that British people today can be held liable for historical wrongs, however heinous, that happened in a different age under different laws and in which they played no personal part,” the prime minister argued. Barbados PM Mia Mottley announced in June a manifesto by Caribbean leaders setting out the “moral, ethical and legal case” for reparations from former colonial powers. Burnham will attend the biennial Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in…
Diese Verpflichtungen sind Teil umfassenderer Bemühungen zur Vertiefung der Beziehungen zwischen der EU und Kanada, die sich als gleichgesinnte Demokratien in einer Welt verstehen, die sich zunehmend von der seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg vorherrschenden, auf internationalen Regeln basierenden Ordnung entfernt. „Wir werden die Zusammenarbeit intensivieren, um Investitionen in Projekte im Bereich kritischer Rohstoffe sowohl in Kanada als auch in der EU entlang der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette – einschließlich Gewinnung, Aufbereitung, Raffination, Herstellung und Recycling – zu fördern“, erklärten die EU und Kanada in einer gemeinsamen Erklärung. Außerdem erklärten sie, sie würden „Möglichkeiten der Zusammenarbeit bei Rohstoffprojekten in Drittländern prüfen, die als…

“We are asking our American partners to find a solution for the time when there is a real danger and a real need to use PAC-3 interceptors,” he added. Patriot interceptors are crucial for Ukraine to defend itself against Russia’s ballistic missiles, amid fears that Moscow will ramp up its attacks on energy facilities to bring winter blackouts in Ukraine. In the Facebook post, Zelenskyy said an immediate delivery of Patriot interceptors would allow Ukraine to defend its energy infrastructure during the winter season. “Providing them to Ukraine right now – in the winter of 2026–2027 – and replenishing our…
