Camp Nou opened its gates again on Saturday night, allowing Barcelona fans to return after more than two years of renovation. Around 45,000 supporters filled the stadium at half capacity, celebrating the chance to be back in their iconic home. For many, the night marked the end of a long 900-day wait spent at the distant Olympic Stadium. But there is still significant work before the new-look Camp Nou is finished and ready to hold 105,000 fans.

More than 72 million people in the EU were classed “at risk of poverty” in 2024, representing 16.2% of the population. Even so, living on the breadline looks vastly different when comparing poverty thresholds between countries. The “at-risk-of-poverty rate” is the share of people whose median equivalised disposable income falls below a given threshold. This threshold is set at 60% of the national median income. However, Eurostat points out that this indicator does not measure wealth or actual poverty. Rather, it reflects low income compared with others in the same country, which “does not necessarily imply a low standard of…

Kazakhstan expressed its support for the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) and Armenian Crossroads of Peace initiative during Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan visit to its capital, Astana. “We also confirm our interest in participating in the TRIPP project. Connecting these strategic corridors with the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route (TITR) and the North-South Corridor is in the interests of both countries,” Tokayev said. For Kazakhstan, the route, also referred to as the Zangezur Corridor by Azerbaijan and Turkey, is a way to diversify its transport routes. “The Zangezur Corridor is primarily about diversifying,” said Deputy Prime Minister,…
The talks will be held at the level of national security advisers, while Bjoern Seibert, the head of cabinet for European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, is expected to represent the EU. Among other points, the Europeans are expected to push Trump’s team to dilute their proposal for handing territory in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine to Russia.

Ukraine and its…

But the deal does not include a detailed roadmap to phase out fossil fuels or to strengthen inadequate emissions-cutting plans. The Brazilian presidency said it would eventually draw up a roadmap to move away from fossil fuels in cooperation with hardline Colombia, but it would not carry the same weight as one approved at the United Nations’ COP30 summit. This is a…
