The Russian Ice Hockey Federation is insisting that the World Junior Championship, due to take place in Canada next month, be postponed or cancelled after Ottawa decided not to allow the Russian team to take part in the tournament. As the official Russian news agency TASS reported on Thursday, the president of the Russian Ice Hockey Federation, Vladislav Tretiak, threatened to demand compensation from Canada and possibly also from Germany, which will host the men’s World Championship in 2027, if Russia is barred from participation. Speaking at a meeting of the Presidential Council for the Development of Physical Culture and…

For 33 years, it was almost impossible to separate Nvidia from Jensen Huang. The co-founder, always in his leather jacket, turned a company he started with two friends in a Silicon Valley diner into one of the world’s most valuable firms. He drew stadium crowds to watch him unveil the chips that power tools like ChatGPT. His resignation on Thursday leaves the company facing a question it has never had to answer: what does Nvidia look like without him? He stepped down after admitting an affair with a woman US officials believe was working for Chinese intelligence, and after reports…
Dirty, dangerous and turbulent. When French photographer Jean-Pierre Laffont landed in New York in the 1960s his plan was to record ordinary lives from an outsider’s perspective. From civil and gay rights to anti-Vietnam war protests, he soon discovered a city on the edge of a cultural revolution, driven by movements, rebelling against the firmly fixed and established norms. Much has been written recently about the deep splits which divide the United States, and Laffont’s work perfectly illustrates some of the roots of the “revolutions that continue to shape” the entire country today. In a wide ranging conversation with European…

Repairs are another problem. Ships damaged in the ice can no longer be fixed in EU yards. Europe is currently the specialist in repairing icebreakers. China’s repair capacity is limited, Rötters said. The tanker Alexey Kosygin, for example, has spent an unusually long time in a Chinese shipyard after being damaged. The other option is to sail west first. Because Russian ships cannot stop in Europe, they could transfer the gas near Murmansk from the specialized tankers to conventional carriers, which would then take it to Asia. Russia has bought an estimated 20 to 25 second-hand conventional ships for this…
By Euronews Persian Published on 13 November 2026 – 10:39 GMT+1•Updated 14:39 The US has rejected claims by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) that its forces destroyed an American early-warning radar in Bahrain. US Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Friday that the IRGC had launched two one-way attack drones towards Bahrain and that both had been shot down by US forces. “There were no injuries or damage,” it said. The Guard’s aerospace force fighters had reportedly launched a strike in response to an attack on a telecommunications tower in Sirik County in southern Iran on Thursday. The IRGC said in a…
Trying to solve everything means solving nothing. But then that’s the point. “It is obvious that Putin is simply stalling for time, trying to destroy or capture Ukraine or win this war of attrition, waiting for aid to stop in Europe and for Europe to be divided,” Ukrainian opposition lawmaker Mykola Kniazhytskyi told POLITICO. The “let’s negotiate everything together” approach has been a key part of the playbook Putin and his Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov have used time and again when it comes to Ukraine, and earlier in Syria. Ukraine’s former commander-in-chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi, now his country’s ambassador to London,…
Footage reveals mounds of plastic refuse cascading from a colossal wooden steed, surrounded by banner-waving Greenpeace demonstrators. Pedestrians halt to record the six-metre structure outside Konyaaltı’s municipal offices, an allegory of the mythical Trojan Horse designed to highlight the latent environmental cost of polymers, while local sanitation teams clear rubbish from a neighbouring stretch of coast. Produced in partnership with Danish artist Thomas Dambo, the piece targets plastic contamination and the fossil-fuel companies driving its output. According to activist Berk Butan, the sculpture demonstrates how plastics serve as the petrochemical industry’s “Trojan Horse”, embedding themselves seamlessly into modern life. Campaigners…
