This episode of Global Crossroads covers significant geopolitical shifts worldwide.

Former President Trump's administration captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, an action a UN rights body stated 'undermined a fundamental principle of international law.' Simultaneously, Trump's threats regarding Greenland prompted European leaders to rally support for the region.

In Europe, French President Macron hosted a summit to secure 'binding commitments' for Ukraine's long-term security, as Kyiv experienced deadly Russian drone attacks. Ukraine's President Zelenskyy also made internal leadership changes, including appointing Chrystia Freeland as an economic adviser.

East Asia saw China impose export controls on Japan's military following remarks on Taiwan, escalating regional tensions. South Korea's President Lee Jae Myung met with China's Xi Jinping, while North Korea tested new hypersonic missile systems under Kim Jong Un's oversight.

Israel recognized Somaliland's sovereignty, a diplomatic move that angered Somalia, and conducted airstrikes in Lebanon targeting Hezbollah and Hamas, as well as an airstrike in Gaza that killed a 5-year-old and her uncle.

Lastly, Europe is addressing internal and external security threats, including suspicious undersea cable outages in the Baltics, with Finland investigating a Russian-flagged ship. Berlin also experienced a massive power outage due to a 'left-wing arson attack,' which the mayor called 'terrorism,' and a deadly fire in a Swiss bar highlighted safety oversight failures.
