Vi har konsekvent varit nyhetsledande på frågor som tonårsutvisningar, spårbyte, medborgarskapsstoppet förra året som ingen annan skrev om, och avsaknaden av övergångsregler i medborgarskapsreformerna. Kul att svenska tidningar äntligen börjar bry sig, men kredd är viktigt för en liten redaktion.

2000 years ago: the Romans would let an aqueduct destroy the Gardon Valley. We need clean water, but at what cost?

The thing about Europe: it’s the actual land of the free now Europe’s very real problems don’t look so bad by comparison

The thing about Europe is it doesn't invest enough in defence. But nor does it joke about invading neighbours.

The thing about Europe is its economy is ailing. But Europeans have no concept of "medical bankruptcy".

My take this week on the truly free continent

What if Donald Trump simply loves tariffs, and no one will stop him?

While I see all your conspiracy theories I regret to inform you that the horrible truth is that an old man with a tariff obsession has been given almost unlimited power in the world's richest country.

Swedish journalist held in Turkey kept 'isolated' from other prisoners Swedish journalist Joakim Medin, who was arrested on arrival in Turkey on terrorism charges, is being kept away from other prisoners but is otherwise in 'good spirits', his employer said.

It has now gone eleven days since Swedish journalist Joakim Medin was arrested as he arrived in Turkey. He is still being held, accused of ‘insulting’ Erdogan. Supporters of press freedom everywhere, please support the campaign for his release.

Tankesmedjan Fores läggs ner – efter C-beslut Centerpartiet halverar stödet till den liberala tankesmedjan Fores – vars personal och lokaler nu sägs upp. C-topparna Muharrem Demirok och Karin Ernlund har varit drivande, men beslutet är klubbat av...

Har Centern satt sprätt på alla sina pengar till den grad att den inte längre har råd med en tankesmedja? Obegripligt i så fall.

In Riyadh, I had a first meeting with Asaad Hassan al-Shibani.

Now is the time for Syria's new leadership to deliver on the hope they have created – through a peaceful and inclusive transition that safeguards all minorities.

Next, we will discuss with EU Foreign Ministers how to ease the sanctions

Trump threatens Denmark with economic retaliation on Greenland In a rambling news conference, the president-elect also repeated the idea of the US taking over Canada and the Panama Canal.

US tariffs on Denmark in pursuit of colonial conquest of Greenland will presumably lead to the EU imposing reciprocal tariffs on US exports to the EU www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

'Let’s keep calm': Danish PM responds as Trump Jr lands in Greenland Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen on Tuesday stated the Danish government’s view after intensified calls by incoming US President Donald Trump for an American takeover of Greenland.

It’s frankly alarming that the next US president is trying to take over an ally’s territory, despite being told clearly that it’s not for sale.
