Pope’s funeral a diplomatic minefield as Trump sets fire to US alliances

President’s international engagements have set stage for explosive confrontations and Pope Francis’s funeral comes at an especially fraught moment

A spectre is haunting Europe: the spectre of Donald Trump flying to the Vatican this weekend and publicly feuding with international leaders in front of St Peter’s Basilica in the midst of the sombre rituals and rites that will mark the funeral of Pope Francis.

The US leader’s first international trip of his second term comes at one of the most politically fractious and fraught moments in recent memory, as his “America first” project sets fire to US alliances and trade relationships around the world. Between international tariffs, the wars in Ukraine and in Gaza, the Trump team’s open antipathy toward Europe and its hard line on immigration from Central and South America, the papal funeral could prove to be a minefield of international diplomacy.

Francis Ford Coppola unveils Megalopolis graphic novel

Megalopolis, Francis Ford Coppola’s $120m passion project, was neither a box office nor a critical success on release last year. Largely funded by the sale of Coppola’s own vineyards, the sci-fi epic starring Adam Driver took around $14m at the global box office amid unconvinced reviews and rumours of abnormal on-set behaviour by its director.

A marketing campaign attempted to leverage bad critical notices by flagging that previous works by Coppola now acclaimed as masterpieces – including Apocalypse Now and The Godfather – had been dismissed by critics at the time. But this backfired after it emerged all of the sniffy historical reviews had been fabricated.

Xi Jinping has announced a plan to counter China’s continuing economic problems and the impact of the US trade war, as reports swirl that it could drop tariffs on some US products, including semiconductors.

Pakistan's Senate unanimously passed a resolution rejecting India's accusations of involvement in the Pahalgam terror attack. The resolution condemned India's government, accusing it of exploiting terrorism for political gain. Following a National Security Committee meeting, Pakistan suspended the Simla Agreement, halted trade, and closed airspace to Indian airlines in retaliation to India's actions.

Following a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, India has suspended the Indus Waters Treaty with Pakistan, halting data sharing and potentially allowing for increased water usage from the western rivers. This action marks a significant escalation in tensions, threatening Pakistan's water supply and agriculture, though immediate impact is unlikely due to infrastructure limitations.

Pahalgam Terror Attack: Why Western media loves to call terrorists 'gunmen'

When 26 people were methodically executed in Kashmir’s Pahalgam valley — identified by name, religion, and in some cases, their inability to recite Islamic prayers — the global media did what it does best: looked away, chose its words carefully, and reached for the comforting vocabulary of denial. Not terrorism. Not jihad. Just “gunmen,” “militants,” and the ever-useful “tensions.” Because in the moral economy of modern newsrooms, the value of a life — and the weight of a headline — depends on who the victims are, and who the killers pray to.

US Jets Intercept Putin's Bombers Near Alaska, Set to Revive ‘Frozen’ Base to Counter China, Russia

As the geopolitical race heats up, the US is eyeing to revive a long-forgotten military outpost in the icy expanse of the Arctic. Adak Island, a remote and storm-battered former Navy base in Alaska, has suddenly found itself back in the spotlight. The US likely views Adak as a strategic hub to check growing Russian and Chinese ambitions in the region, as per a report by ‘Task & Purpose’ news portal. The Pentagon is now reportedly considering resurrecting the island as a frontline military base in the new geopolitical race for the Arctic. Adak Island, a Cold War sentinel but now a ghost town, is located at the western tip of Alaska’s Aleutian chain. The island lies over 1930 km southwest of Anchorage and is roughly equidistant between the US and Russian mainlands. n18oc_world n18oc_crux0:00 INTRODUCTION1:22 WHY US WANTS TO RESURRECT ADAK NOW?4:35 US INTERCEPTS RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT IN ARCTIC
