#switzerland-vs-sweden

After more than 25 years of debate and delay, we have moved beyond words and into action. This commission is not just a technical body; it is a commitment to historical integrity and a long-awaited bridge to justice for those whose heritage was stolen.

1. Trump - whose speech at the World Economic Forum drew such demand that a stampede nearly broke out at the doors - claimed the Greenland deal gives the U.S. "everything we needed." Even with concessions falling far short of total control, Trump can tout the "Art of the Deal" to his base and retreat from an issue that polls even worse than his handling of the Epstein files. The "Trump Always Chickens Out" (TACO) mockery popularized on Wall Street may sting, but the president's MAGA machine is already moving to sell the deal as a total victory.

At their disposal are mainly three options: The use of the so-called "trade bazooka" a never-before-used instrument that could even go as far as restricting market access for US companies in the EU. The implementation of retaliatory tariffs. The suspension of the EU-US trade deal, which has yet to come into effect. EU heads of state and government will meet for a summit on Thursday a dinner cobbled together in haste to coordinate which of those options the bloc will use in response to Trump's threats.

I do a video a day when I'm on my dog walk in Lund, and I try to find different topics to talk about. My son pointed out to me a video from national broadcaster SVT about a guy named Shahdad who came here from Iran when he was 14. Now he's 25 and he was about to be deported, even though his mum has a permanent residency and he had a job, so I did a video on him, because I didn't agree with that.

Standing among the Alps, it's easy to believe that they will last forever. They seem too big to fail, too old to change. This illusion of permanence has long entranced travelers who have visited to experience the intoxicating feeling of being daunted and dwarfed by a landscape's authority. But even mountains move: This past May an avalanche of ice and rock tore through the Lötschental Valley, erasing the village of Blatten in less than a minute.

We begin with a deliberately ambitious question. What would it take for every person on Earth to live at least as well as someone in Switzerland does today-by 2100? Not culturally Swiss, but economically empowered with high incomes, long lives, strong education, and social cohesion. Achieving this would require global GDP to be about 8.5 times higher than it is today. That figure alone is enough to trigger skepticism. Will we have enough energy, materials, food, and innovation?

European nations are preparing countermeasures to Donald Trump's "blackmail," Germany's Vice Chancellor, Lars Klingbeil, said Monday. Klingbeil said Europe would respond "with a united, clear" response to the US president's threat of tariffs against eight countries for their opposition to his aim of acquiring Greenland, a Danish-owned, semiautonomous Arctic territory.

Senior European diplomats are due to hold crisis talks after Donald Trump said he was targeting eight European nations with tariffs over their support for Greenland. Italy's prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, said Trump's tariffs were a mistake, and the Dutch foreign minister, David van Weel, described the US president's threats to allies as blackmail, as reaction from European leaders continued to pile up.
