Renewing the African Growth and Opportunity Act would protect U.S. jobs and economic power.

The fossil-fuel foreign policy of the United States under President Donald Trump has intensified the conflict between petrostates and electrostates in international climate politics. At COP30 in Belém in November 2025, this cleavage was particularly evident in the dispute over a roadmap for the Transition Away from Fossil Fuels (TAFF). While an increasing number of countries regard TAFF as a necessary consequence of the global energy transition, fossil fuel producers prevented any substantive progress being made. The conference highlighted the structural limits of the capacity of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to mediate this dis­tri­bu­tional conflict. As a result, the EU faces a strategic dilemma: to further politicise the COP process around TAFF or to prioritise the stabilisation of key mechanisms of the Paris Agreement. Whether it can overcome that dilemma will become apparent during the run-up to the next global stocktake, which is due at COP33 in India in 2028.

L’armée israélienne admet enfin que le nombre de morts, qui s’élève à 71 000 personnes, donné par le ministère de la Santé du Hamas, est exact.

Nombreux sont ceux qui l’ont longtemps nié, considérant ces chiffres comme relevant de la propagande terroriste, ce qui servait surtout à minimiser les actions du gouvernement israélien et à relayer la propagande israélienne.

Malheureusement, les chiffres exacts sont probablement encore plus élevés, compte tenu des disparus et des morts indirectes. Malheureusement, les mensonges trop répétés dans les médias entraînent une perte de confiance et une montée du complotisme.

Parallèlement, le passage de Rafah est désormais rouvert, contrôlé par l’Égypte. Mais le passage restera difficile pour de nombreux Palestiniens, qui devront affronter le choix de mourir sur place ou de partir avec le risque de ne jamais revenir. En d’autres termes, c’est le choix entre davantage de morts ou un nettoyage ethnique, avec la passivité totale de la communauté internationale.
