The competitiveness of the European Union (EU) is a strategic security issue, emphasized Latvian President Edgars Rinkēvičs, who participated in a meeting of the Arraiolos Group in the Slovenian town of Brdo near Kranj on Thursday and Friday. According to presidential advisor Mārtiņš Drēģeris, Rinkēvičs believes that the EU must invest in the development of technology and artificial intelligence and must prevent overregulation, finding a balance between the protection of citizens' rights and the opportunities for European companies to develop and be globally competitive. Rinkēvičs noted that EU security is closely linked to the security of Ukraine, which is why support for Ukraine must continue in all forms, especially during the autumn and winter period when Russia intensifies its attacks on Ukraine's civilian and energy infrastructure. At the same time, Rinkēvičs acknowledged that political reform may be necessary for the admission of new member states to the EU. #EiropasSavienība #drošība #Ukraina (translated)

As an elderly president over these twelve years, I have progressively witnessed the growing awareness that the Union has an indispensable need for faster and more streamlined decision-making processes. Without the speed of decisions, these problems in international life would be decided by other entities, and we would passively suffer the effects in Europe. This was stated by the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, speaking about the necessity of greater European integration at the summit of 12 EU Head of States, Arraiolos, in Brdo, Slovenia. #Italia2026 #UnioneEuropea #SergioMattarella (translated)

The battle for Taiz is not just a battle for Taiz, but a broader battle that involves the entire Western world and one of the most important maritime straits. The Houthis know that controlling Taiz means controlling the strait, and this includes the plateaus before the straits and the coastal city of Mocha as well as the Aden Gulf. If Taiz is lost, access to the strait will also be lost. The rest of the country will come later. The Houthis' plan is to control all of Yemen. The former Yemeni Prime Minister, now an advisor to the Yemeni president, Maeen Abdulmalik Saeed, said that the future of Western security is being decided in the mountains and hills surrounding the southwestern Yemeni city of Taiz. #Jemen #Huti #SigurnostZapada (translated)
