The recent scenes in Ceuta, where large numbers of migrants have attempted to cross into Spanish territory, raise a fundamental question: Is Spain gradually becoming a failed state? Geostrategic Blindness and Hybrid Warfare in Ceuta Spain's borders are not merely Spanish borders. They are also the external borders of the European Union. When those borders are repeatedly challenged, it is not only Spain's sovereignty that is being tested, but also Europe's credibility. What is

Earlier this month, Greece’s National Security Advisor Thanos Dokos ended up speaking with Russian pranksters Vovan & Lexus, believing he was talking to his Ukrainian counterpart.

or Why Sam Altman’s Energy Comparison between AI and a Child is a Moral Failure OpenAI's founder, of whom one might easily speculate that he experienced little love during his childhood and certainly lacks the joy of raising a child or even a pet, made a shocking remark in February 2026 at the AI Impact Summit in India.
