According to former White House strategist and current MAGA influencer and podcaster Steve Bannon, there is. “They’re playing with fire,” he told POLITICO. “They’re totally dependent on us for trade.” He also added a dark warning about “the Alberta secession movement picking up momentum” — Bannon and other MAGA luminaries have been encouraging the oil-rich Canadian province to break away. Bannon also cited the deal Trump recently struck with Denmark and Greenland as an example of U.S. power and Washington’s ability to get what it wants. “Our Greenland deal shows the reality of Canada’s inability to defend itself from being…

By Doloresz Katanich with AFP Published on 01/10/2026 – 11:56 GMT+2•Updated 12:03 US President Donald Trump announced Wednesday plans for $200bn (€176bn) in South Korean investments in US energy projects, including $54bn (€47.6bn) for a long-planned liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in Alaska that Seoul said it had not yet agreed to invest in.

At first glance, humanoid robots look like a field dominated by the big tech corporations: artificial intelligence, cameras, sensors, software. But beneath their casing lies a great deal of traditional industry. Every leg, every arm and every hand contains motors, gearboxes, bearings and sensors — components European companies have been producing for decades. German research is still at the starting point in the race to develop humanoid robots, but industrial suppliers are already far ahead when it comes to specialised parts. Researchers are now asking whether Europe even needs to build humanoid robots itself in order to benefit from a…

Latvia’s State Security Service (VDD) said the two Latvian citizens are suspected of collecting information on the Ādaži base — one of Latvia’s most important military stations and home to NATO’s brigade in the country — as well as military radar systems and the movement of planes.

“Let’s go to war!” shouted six-year-old Giorgos at his older cousin, Minas, as the two chased each other with claw-like geranium stalks around the schoolyard on the tiny Greek island of Thymaina. The two boys are the last primary school children on the far-flung eastern Aegean island, 40 kilometres from the Turkish coast. “When I was a boy, the school had nearly 70 children,” 77-year-old Manolis Mitikas, owner of Thymaina’s portside cantina, mused over a game of backgammon. Like the rest of Greece, the former pirate hideout is facing the effects of an ageing population. The education ministry said it…
