The new international media for a changing world – The new international media for a changing world

It was a month ago. On the night of January 2-3, 2026. It was a few minutes before 2:00 a.m. on that sinister Saturday… We were shocked by the brutality of the attack under the full moon. The violence of the successive explosions. The columns of dark smoke. The intensity of the flames illuminating a stunned, sleepless, and silent Caracas. And then, like a punch to the gut, the news of the kidnapping…

Following the illegal US operation against Venezuela, a deliberate disinformation campaign has been carried out to sow doubts about the survival of the country's revolution.
The execution of “Operation Absolute Resolve” by the United States, a targeted bombing and the illegal kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro, has created a moment of profound crisis, but also of profound clarity.

The emerging reports about the "human safaris" in Sarajevo during the Bosnian War point to Jovica Stanisic as "the Serbian officer in charge of organizing the trips for the wealthy snipers." In fact, the investigation by the Milanese judiciary identifies Stanisic as the coordinator of these trips under the guise of "hunting excursions."
But who exactly is Jovica Stanisic?

Mariano Sánchez Soler is a Spanish journalist, writer, and historian. He is known for being the author of several seminal studies on the Franco regime and the ultraconservative legacies of Spanish democracy. He has just published *La familia Franco SA* (Editorial Roca, 2025). We spoke with him about the business dealings and secrets of the longest-lasting dictatorship of the 20th century in the West.

The murder of Charlie Kirk heralds a deadly new phase in the disintegration of a divided and highly polarized United States. While toxic rhetoric and threats are launched across cultural divides like hand grenades, sometimes erupting into actual violence—including the assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Emeritus Melissa Hortman and her husband, and the two assassination attempts on Donald Trump—Kirk's killing is a harbinger of larger-scale societal disintegration.

On August 31, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen landed in Bulgaria after reporting interference with her plane's GPS. The Financial Times reported that the plane was forced to continue flying for an hour without the ability to land, until the pilots landed manually using paper maps.

The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and the President of the United States, Donald Trump, have just staged a truly shameless piece of theater.
As he has done with other countries, Donald Trump has not sought a good trade agreement with the European Union that benefits the US economy, as he insists. And von der Leyen's concessions have not been on tariffs to avoid the greater evils of an escalating trade war, as European leaders claim. The issue lies elsewhere.

Argentine journalist Leila Guerriero was already a renowned journalist before publishing "La llamada," but this book places her in a more than prominent place in the genre with which she is most identified: narrative journalism.
In “The Call,” Guerriero addresses the life of Silvia Labayru, a former militant of the Montoneros guerrilla group and a survivor of the former ESMA clandestine detention center.

With the Greater Syria Liberation Organization in Damascus, speculation is open about the future of the country, which has been completely devastated by the international boycott, because Baathism, a socialist and pan-Arab ideology, never had the opportunity to exercise power, neither before 2011 nor after 2011, after the so-called Arab Spring.

In recent years, Morocco has succeeded in getting several Western powers to change their position on the Western Sahara conflict to align themselves with Rabat's theses, albeit to varying degrees. The first was the United States under Donald Trump, and the last was France under Macron, both of which have gone furthest in recognising Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara.

“Israeli leaders killed three birds with one stone,” wrote Reuven Pedatzur, a military affairs analyst for the Israeli daily Haaretz. “They killed the man who had the power to strike a deal with Israel; they took revenge on someone who had caused quite a few Israeli casualties; and they signaled to Hamas that communications with it will only be carried out through military force.”

Has there been a new revolution in France? Have Robespierre's heirs taken power and are they going to establish a new social and economic order, one that dispossesses the banks, overthrows the obscene ruling class and strives to establish a less exploitative, unequal and corrupt system?
