Trump’s bid to take over Greenland is not just a mad dash for resources. Yes, there are rare earths and other vital minerals, but there is far more to geopolitics than material concerns. It’s a battle for control over the Arctic, says James Woudhuysen buff.ly/jydVcrQ

Italy is convulsing with anti-Israel hatred. Protests and strikes have ground the country to a halt. Meloni is under huge pressure to recognise Palestine, even though this would reward Hamas’s evil. She must not give in to the mob, says Dominic Standish buff.ly/3BTTfbI
