Is Hungary Under EU Pressure to Destroy Its Russian Relations?

Ten diplomats expelled, Russian relations deteriorating and a curious new “energy cooperation” with Latvia — Budapest’s foreign-policy pivot is becoming increasingly difficult to dismiss as symbolism. But what does Hungary actually gain if political alignment with Brussels comes at the price of its established relationship with Moscow?

A Visitor From Another Star - 3I/ATLAS Carries a Chemical Fingerprint From Beyond the Solar System

Humanity has never sent a spacecraft to another planetary system. Yet occasionally nature does the reverse. Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has travelled into our Solar System carrying material formed around another star — and astronomers have discovered that its chemistry is unlike almost anything seen among our own comets.

The Big Talk of Pashinyan - Who Does He Think He Is Fooling?

Nikol Pashinyan arrived at the SCO summit in Bishkek talking about “multipolarity”, strategic relations with Russia and Armenia's desire to cooperate with everyone. Yet behind the diplomatic language lies a contradiction that becomes harder to disguise: Armenia has legally launched a process toward European Union membership while continuing to enjoy the economic advantages of the Russian-led Eurasian Economic Union. How long can Yerevan really sit on two chairs?

Russia Launches the Digital Ruble - Moscow Moves Ahead of Europe as America Bets on Stablecoins

Russia begins the large-scale rollout of the digital ruble today, 1 September 2026, moving its central-bank digital currency from a controlled experiment into everyday banking. The project puts Russia years ahead of the planned digital euro in public deployment — but follows a fundamentally different model from the United States, which has rejected a federal CBDC and is instead building its digital-money strategy around privately issued dollar stablecoins.

SCO vs G7 - Which Bloc Has the Greater Economic Power?

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the G7 represent two very different concentrations of global power. The G7 remains substantially richer in nominal dollar terms and dominates international finance, while the SCO contains more than four times as many people, enormous energy and mineral resources and — measured by purchasing power — an economy that is already larger. The comparison shows why the economic centre of gravity is steadily shifting toward Eurasia.

SCO at 25 - From Border-Security Group to a Eurasian Powerhouse

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation marks its 25th anniversary at its summit in Bishkek with China, Russia, India and the major powers of Central Asia around the same table. What began in 2001 as a security organisation of six states has developed into a Eurasian grouping representing more than 3.4 billion people, around a quarter of the global economy and some of the world's largest reserves of energy and strategic minerals. The central question for its next 25 years is whether that enormous potential can be converted into deeper economic integration.

Vladivostok 2026: Russia’s Eastern Economic Forum Opens With Asia at the Centre

The 11th Eastern Economic Forum opens in Vladivostok on 1 September with representatives from more than 70 countries expected, major delegations from across Asia and a growing pipeline of investment projects. After three successive years of record deal-making, Moscow is presenting the Russian Far East not as a remote frontier but as one of the principal gateways connecting Russia with China, India, Southeast Asia and the Arctic.

After Ukraine, the Arctic? NATO Builds a New Front Against Russia in the High North

As the war in Ukraine enters its fifth year without a decisive military outcome, NATO is rapidly expanding its military posture in the Arctic. The alliance calls the buildup deterrence against a growing "Russian threat". Moscow sees the same deployments as a direct threat to its territory. The danger is that a region once presented as a model of cooperation could become the next major front line between Russia and the West.

Russia’s Nuclear Icebreaker Fleet - The Power Behind Moscow’s Arctic Strategy

Russia’s nuclear-powered icebreakers give Moscow a capability no other country currently possesses at comparable scale. Eight nuclear vessels are in service, more are being built, and the Kremlin is betting that an expanded fleet will turn the Northern Sea Route into one of Eurasia’s most important transport corridors. Yet sanctions, ageing Soviet-era ships and increasingly demanding Arctic operations are testing that advantage.

AI Can Be 99.97% Accurate — And Still “Discover” Alien Life That Isn't There

An artificial-life experiment exposes a dangerous weakness in machine learning: exceptional performance on familiar data does not guarantee that an AI understands what it is looking at.
