India hosts global intel chiefs' meet
Global intelligence chiefs are meeting in Delhi for their annual gathering, focusing on counterterrorism efforts and discussing security challenges with global implications. The two-day meeting aims to foster cooperation in combating transnational crimes such as cyber threats, terrorism, and terrorism financing.
Trump and NATO
Former US President Donald Trump said at an election rally a fortnight ago that he once told a NATO leader that he would let Russian President Vladimir Putin “do whatever the hell he wants” to any NATO member that does not increase its defence spending to a minimum of 2 per cent of its GDP.
Trump, by his own admission, told the NATO ally, “No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them (the Russians) to do whatever the hell they want. You got to pay. You got to pay your bills.”
Trump has no love lost for NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, because he feels that it has no relevance for the US and that the US alone pays for the protection of smaller nations against possible attacks by Russia or any of its allies without any reciprocal gesture from the Europeans.
A Strategic Approach to Red Sea Security By Iran
Iran did not create the Houthi movement, but it has long seen it as useful. The Houthis have been a low-cost way to give Iran additional regional reach. They represent a modest investment in regional forces that reject the legitimacy of the status quo.
