Denmark still has ‘fundamental disagreement’ with Donald Trump over Greenland after high-stakes meeting

Danish officials claim a "fundamental disagreement" over Greenland remains with President Donald Trump after highly anticipated talks with the vice president and secretary of state. It comes as Trump insisted anything less than total US control of the island would be "unacceptable". The two sides, however, agreed to create a working group to discuss ways to work through differences as Trump continues to call for a US takeover of the semi-autonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark. US President Donald Trump has made strong demands of Denmark surrounding the fate of Greenland. (AP) "The group, in our view, should focus on how to address the American security concerns, while at the same time respecting the red lines of the Kingdom of Denmark," Danish Foreign Minister La...

US military action in Venezuela is seen as both a blessing and a curse for Russia’s Putin

The lightning US operation to capture Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro can be seen as both a benefit and a burden for Russian President Vladimir Putin, whose forces botched an attempt to capture Ukraine's capital and topple its leader at the start of Moscow's invasion nearly four years ago. The ouster of Maduro highlights another Kremlin failure to support an ally, following the downfall of Syria's former President Bashar Assad in 2024 and last year's US and Israeli attacks on Iran. With the US determined to establish control over Venezuela, Russia stands to lose a strategic foothold in the Western Hemisphere, along with billions of dollars invested in its oil industry. Russian President Vladimir Putin, left, shakes hands with Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro during their meeti...

Trump threats against Greenland pose new, potentially unprecedented challenge to NATO

US President Donald Trump's latest threats against Greenland pose a new and potentially unprecedented challenge to NATO, perhaps even an existential one, for an alliance focused on external threats that could now face an armed confrontation involving its most powerful member. The White House says the administration is weighing "options" that could include military action to take control of the strategically located and mineral-rich island, which is a semi-autonomous region that is part of NATO ally Denmark. Trump's renewed interest in Greenland could put at risk the entire future of NATO, which was founded in 1949 to counter the threat to European security posed by the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

US seizes Russian-flagged oil tanker linked to Venezuela

The US says it has seized two sanctioned oil tankers linked to Venezuela after in back-to-back actions in the North Atlantic and the Caribbean, officials said on Wednesday. Originally called the Bella 1, the tanker was sanctioned by the US in 2024 for operating within a "shadow fleet" of tankers transporting illicit oil. US European Command announced the seizure of the merchant vessel Bella 1 for "violations of US sanctions". A Coast Guard cutter had pursued the tanker into the waters between Scotland and Iceland after it tried to avoid being ensnared by the US blockade on sanctioned oil vessels around Venezuela. The vessel tanker Bella 1 at Singapore Strait, after US officials say the Coast Guard pursued an oil tanker in international waters near Venezuela, in this pi...

Trump says US to get up to 50 million barrels of oil from Venezuela at market price

President Donald Trump said “interim authorities” in Venezuela would sell between 30 million and 50 million barrels of “high quality” oil to the US at its market price. “I have asked Energy Secretary Chris Wright to execute this plan, immediately,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “It will be taken by storage ships, and brought directly to unloading docks in the United States.” Trump said the money would be controlled by him as president, but would be used to benefit the people of Venezuela and the United States.
