                            China appears to be prepared to expand its global outreach to Cuba, with designs to make it a North American province by 2030.

                            Robert Trent Jones Jr., having spearheaded discreet White House back-channels between the U.S. and its foreign friends and foes for 50 years, has figured out why America 2025 is no longer a country for wise men.

                            President Donald Trump has embraced tariffs as a way to help equalize the United States' trade imbalance. His detractors have cried foul and liken the circumstances and his policies to the downfall of the ancient city of Ur.

                            Dating back two-and-one-half centuries, the Americans and French have had a symbiotic, almost sibling rivalrous relationship, which freezes and warms like the seasons.

                            The Paris Defense and Strategy Forum, an annual gathering of military leaders and experts from 30 countries, gave a hint of likely result from Russia's war with Ukraine.

                            Claims that Ukraine is a veritable treasure trove of rare earth elements are at best unproven, and at worst, mere fantasy.

                            Donald Trump's idea of creating water hazards out of artillery craters and transforming antitank ditches into greenside obstacles to reimagine Gaza has been met with everything from outright rejection to snide mocking to "it's been tried."
