The year 2026: local hopes and global anxieties

Every New Year we meet with enthusiasm and hope for changes for the better. This is the way human beings are: no matter how bad things are, no matter what problems overwhelm us, we traditionally consider the New Year as a starting point, from which we will start a completely different life – from a white sheet, without the problematic plume of the past.

The transatlantic divide is complete

The North Atlantic region is undergoing radical historical changes as the rift between Europe and America deepens. Under the leadership of President Donald Trump, the United States seeks to create a world order based solely on spheres of interest and dominated by the “big three” world powers: the United States, China and Russia. To achieve this goal, the Trump administration is ready to abandon the traditional foundations of U.S. influence: the network of alliances and values that have underpinned American democracy for 250 years.

Venezuelan trap: why will the echo from Caracas hurt Chisinau?

When talking about Venezuela, everything is reduced to the slogan: “The U.S. came for oil”. This is convenient, but fundamentally wrong. Venezuela is not a “banana republic” that you can carry under your arm. Yes, it has colossal reserves (about 303 billion barrels), but due to years of devastation, the country produces only 1% of the world’s oil.
