Iran’s message is stark: If the U.S. and Israel restart their air campaign, Tehran will respond with strikes not only on American bases and warships but on airports, pipelines and other civilian targets in the neighboring countries of the Persian Gulf.

The author called for EU funding to equip Bulgaria and Romania with modern warships and 100 minesweepers to clear mines, protect ports and secure maritime trade.

The post compared Elon Musk’s 2026 challenge to India through satellites, technology and competition with Commodore Perry’s 1853 arrival in Japan, which it said had forced the country to confront the outside world.

Once again, Europe woke up to reckless and dangerous Russian behaviour. A Russian warship fired emergency flares dangerously close to a Danish helicopter. A drone entered Lithuanian airspace before being destroyed by NATO fighter jets. These are not isolated incidents. They #Russia #NATO #EuropeanSecurity #DK #LT #RU

Ireland had to rely on a British warship and its helicopters to defend a meeting of EU defence ministers in Wicklow. Our government does not even have the self-awareness to be embarrassed at this. Never has a gov's words & actions been so much at odds. https://t.co/AjymNRxgMt #Ireland #EUdefence #GovernmentAccountability #IE #GB #EU

Right... Iran holds the capacity to sink every tanker and warship in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman but still somehow fails in monitoring their movements. Most likely this has been a strategic decision, like allowing the Bab el Mandeb to function (until recently). There's #Iran #PersianGulf #Geopolitics #IR #OM

The Ukrainian turkey shoot of Russian tankers (some of them attempting to resupply Crimea) in the Azov Sea. 21 vessels, including 19 tankers, hit in two days.

The way of war is changing, as shown by conflicts in Ukraine and Iran. Are the hundreds of billions of dollars being invested today in new tanks, planes and warships going to become the equivalent of buying horses and arrows on the eve of machine guns and howitzers? My deep dive. #WarAnalysis #MilitaryFuture #ConflictTrends #UA #IR
