๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Trump wants Greenland: Denmark now wants California ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

After repeated comments from senior US figures about taking Greenland, buying it, pressuring Denmark, even hinting at force, almost 300,000 people have now backed a satirical campaign calling for Denmark to โ€œbuy Californiaโ€ instead.

Itโ€™s a joke, obviously, but itโ€™s also making a point.

The campaign turns the Greenland โ€œlogicโ€ upside down. If a powerful country like the US can openly talk about acquiring someone elseโ€™s territory because it suits its strategic interests, why not apply the same thinking back the other way? So Denmark โ€œoffersโ€ a trillion dollars, suggests renaming California โ€œNew Denmarkโ€ and jokes about bringing things like universal healthcare and social stability along with it.

Whatโ€™s more interesting is the response from Americans.

A lot of them are on board, some sarcastically, some not at all. Many openly say theyโ€™re fed up with a political system that talks endlessly about power and dominance overseas, while failing...

๐Ÿšจ South Africa just made a bold diplomatic move that's sending shockwaves through international relations!

Pretoria expelled Israel's top diplomat Ariel Seidman, declaring him persona non grata after repeated social media attacks on President Ramaphosa and unauthorized meetings with local leaders.

๐Ÿ’ผ The Israeli embassy had been publicly criticizing South Africa's ICJ genocide case and claiming the country "wasted" millions challenging Israel in court. Israel immediately retaliated by expelling South Africa's envoy from Ramallah. This escalation comes as South Africa continues its principled stand at the International Court of Justice against Israeli actions in Gaza.

Should more Global South nations follow South Africa's lead and take stronger diplomatic action against countries that disrespect their sovereignty and leadership?

Hungary vs EU: Who Really Controls Energy Policy? ๐Ÿ”ฅ

โšก Hungaryโ€™s Viktor Orbรกn says Budapest will not obey the new EU ban on Russian gas from 2027, arguing that without Russian supplies household bills would triple and energy policy must stay a national decision. ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡บ He plans to challenge Brussels in EU courts and explore ways to keep Russian gas flowing even after the deadline.

๐ŸŒ For many in the Global South, this looks like another example of smaller states fighting to defend energy sovereignty against decisions made in distant capitals.
โ€‹
๐Ÿ’ฌ Do you think countries like Hungary are defending true sovereignty and affordable energy, or simply locking themselves into old dependencies that weaken a multipolar, Global Southโ€“friendly order?

๐Ÿšจ Trump Declares "National Emergency" Over Cuba โ€“ Russia Calls Out US Hypocrisy

The Trump administration just signed an executive order threatening tariffs on any country supplying oil to Cuba, citing Havana as an "extraordinary threat." Russia's Foreign Ministry fired back, calling unilateral sanctions that bypass the UN "categorically unacceptable."
