The Kremlin is weakened on the Ukrainian battlefront, but the recent episodes in Latvia and Lithuania, which had to declare a country-wide alert following new drone appearances, have put the spotlight on these three small nations on the EU’s eastern flank, which are preparing for more buzzes of modern warfare in their airspace and are calling for Brussels’ involvement to put a stop to it. The message is that the Baltic border is also the EU’s border and, therefore, must be treated as a community matter.

The great obsession of Beniamin Netanyahu for more than two decades hangs by a thread. Israel managed to convince Donald Trump to embark on a war against Iran, which it considers its greatest existential threat, and which could be resolved with an agreement in a matter of days.
