Trump verbietet Alkoholimporte aus Kanada – Ottawa sucht die Nähe zur EU
BERLINER ZEITUNG: Die USA stoppen fast alle alkoholischen Getränke sowie bestimmte Milchprodukte und Motorräder aus Kanada. Ministerpräsident Mark Carney will die Abhängigkeit vom mächtigen Nachbarn verringern.
Der Handelskrieg zwischen den USA und Kanada erreicht eine neue Stufe. Die Regierung von US-Präsident Donald Trump verbietet die Einfuhr zahlreicher kanadischer Produkte, darunter fast alle alkoholischen Getränke, bestimmte Milchprodukte und einige Motorräder. Die Importverbote sollen am 29. September in Kraft treten.
Washington reagiert damit auf kanadische Gegenzölle, die seit Dienstag für Hunderte Waren aus den USA gelten. Zudem sollen kanadische Unternehmen von langfristigen Aufträgen der amerikanischen Bundesregierung ausgeschlossen werden.
Kanadas Ministerpräsident Mark Carney kündigte an, sein Land werde sich nicht unter Druck setzen lassen. „Es geht darum, sicherzustellen, dass uns kein Land als Geisel nehmen kann. Und dass wir so leben können, wie wir leben wollen“, sagte er. » | Alexander Schmalz | Mittwoch 9. September 2026

Tens of Thousands Line the Streets as Norway Bids Farewell to King Harald V
THE GUARDIAN: Europe’s royals and global political figures attend ceremony that brings 13 days of national mourning to a close
Norway has observed a minute’s silence as it takes leave of King Harald V in a series of ceremonies, bringing to a close 13 days of national mourning that followed the popular monarch’s death last month at the age of 89.
Tens of thousands of people lined the streets of Oslo and foreign heads of state and government converged on the Norwegian capital for the funeral of the late king, a light-touch and unassuming reformer who ruled for more than three decades.
With the king’s casket carried on an artillery carriage, draped in Norway’s red royal banner and topped with white flowers, the funeral cortege made its way on foot along Oslo’s main avenue from royal palace to the cathedral, as a 21-gun salute rang out from the Akershus fortress.
King Haakon VIII, who succeeded his father on Harald’s death, and other royal family members walked in the cortege, with Harald’s widow, Queen Sonja, 89, and Haakon’s wife, Queen Mette-Marit, who is recovering from a lung transplant in June, following in a car. » | Jon Henley | Europe correspondent | Wednesday, September 9, 2026

En Iran, le régime tenté par l’escalade militaire
LE FIGARO : DÉCRYPTAGE - Les dernières attaques iraniennes visant des cibles américaines dans la région signalent une volonté d’escalade. Un calcul stratégique de Téhéran, pour détourner l’attention de la crise économique et embarrasser Donald Trump à l’approche des élections de mi-mandat.
Après les paroles, les actes. Les gardiens de la révolution, armée idéologique du régime iranien, ont annoncé ce mercredi 9 septembre avoir attaqué une base militaire des États-Unis en Jordanie ainsi qu’une vingtaine de bateaux américains, en réponse à des frappes contre les pétroliers iraniens. « L’ère des réponses proportionnées est révolue », avait prévenu, dimanche 6 septembre, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, le chef du Parlement iranien et l’une des figures clés de l’équipe chargée des négociations avec l’Iran. « Désormais, toute attaque contre la sécurité ou les intérêts de l’Iran fera l’objet d’une réponse plus rapide, plus lourde et douloureuse », avait-il insisté, après l’attaque de trois pétroliers iraniens la veille, en représailles à des tirs contre des navires américains.
Après un mois d’accalmie relative dans la longue guerre qui oppose, depuis le 28 février, l’Iran et les États-Unis, les hostilités ont repris le 30 août lorsque des bombardements américains ont visé des infrastructures iraniennes dans le détroit d’Ormuz et dans le sud de l’Iran, endeuillant au passage un mariage. Elles suivaient de quelques jours l’annonce de nouvelles sanctions économiques contre Téhéran. La riposte iranienne avait déjà été ferme : très vite, Bahreïn, les Émirats arabes unis, le Koweït, l’Irak mais aussi la Jordanie s’étaient retrouvés la cible de frappes tous azimuts. » | Par Delphine Minoui | mercredi 9 septembre 2026

Merz Accuses AfD of ‘Ethnic Cleansing’ Policy and Cancels Call with Trump
THE GUARDIAN: German chancellor attacks Alternative für Deutschland after far-right party’s win in Saxony-Anhalt election
Germany’s chancellor, Friedrich Merz, has accused the far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) of seeking “ethnic cleansing” with its “remigration” drive, after the nativist party’s seismic weekend victory in a state election.
In his first public confrontation with the AfD since Sunday’s shock outcome in Saxony-Anhalt, Merz said at a raucous parliamentary debate that the far-right party would take an axe to one of the pillars of the German economy with a racist campaign of mass deportations.
“The term ‘remigration’ is nothing but a synonym for ethnic cleansing based on origin and skin colour,” he said on Wednesday to applause from the other parties in the Bundestag lower house.
In a fiery speech addressed to the AfD parliamentary group, which repeatedly interrupted him with loud taunts and heckling, Merz said millions of working immigrants were crucial to German society.
“If those working in Germany have to leave the country again because you are championing ‘remigration’,” Merz said, “then the skilled trades in Germany will no longer be able to function: not a single care home will remain open, not a single hospital in Germany will remain operational, and not a single restaurant in Germany will be able to stay in business.”
He said the AfD’s rhetoric, which propelled it to the strongest showing for a far-right party in a German state since the Nazi period, “is precisely what is dividing our society so deeply”.
The AfD has repeatedly called for large-scale expulsions of irregular migrants, a policy that would face stiff challenges under German law. » | Deborah Cole in Berlin | Wednesday, September 9, 2026

UK Accuses Israeli Government of "Ethnic Cleansing" as Diplomatic Crisis Unfolds in Middle East
Sep 9, 2026 | The UK Labour government, led by Prime Minister Andy Burnham and Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband, has executed a historic shift in Middle East policy. In an address to the House of Commons, Britain officially declared Israel’s occupation of the West Bank unlawful in its entirety, accusing state-backed settler groups of committing "ethnic cleansing" against Palestinians.
To enforce this stance, the UK announced an import ban on all goods originating from illegal West Bank settlements, alongside sanctions prohibiting UK businesses from providing construction, financing, or advertising services for settlement expansion. In response, Israel's foreign minister, Gideon Sa'ar, slammed the measures as "morally distorted," ordered the closure of the British Consulate in Jerusalem, barred 12 British MPs from entering Israel and terminated security cooperation.

Can Dubai’s Luxe Image Survive the War with Iran? | BBC News
Sep 8, 2026 | As the summer holiday season draws to a close, foreigners travelling to and from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates are facing delays, cancellations and severe travel warnings.
The disruption comes as a result of the UAE’s position in the ongoing US-Israel war with Iran. Throughout the conflict, Iran has attacked the UAE more times than any other country, including Israel.
Until the war with Iran began, Dubai was a major tourist destination, famous for its modern skyscrapers, luxurious beaches and low crime rate.
For decades, the Gulf city has promised residents and tourists alike safety, security and stability – so has that promise fallen apart? And what could that mean for the city’s future?
The Global Story’s Asma Khalid speaks to Sameer Hashmi, an independent journalist based in Dubai, about how Brand Dubai is weathering a major regional war.

Pope Leo on Same-sex Blessings in the Catholic Church Following German Cardinal Controversy
When asked about the blessing of same-sex couples after a decision by German Cardinal Reinhard Marx in Munich and Freising, Pope Leo XIV said Church unity should not be reduced to sexual ethics.
“First of all, I think it’s very important to understand that the unity or division of the Church should not revolve around sexual matters,” he said. “We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual, and in reality, I believe there are much greater and more important issues, such as justice, the equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue.”
Leo said the Holy See had already made clear to the German bishops that it does not agree with the “formalized blessing of couples,” including homosexual couples or couples in irregular situations, beyond what Pope Francis had permitted.
Invoking Francis’ well-known statement of “Tutti, tutti, tutti,” Leo said: “All are welcome, all are invited. All are invited to follow Jesus, and all are invited to look for conversion in their lives.”
“To go beyond that today, I think that the topic can cause more disunity than unity,” he added, “and that we should look for ways to build our unity upon Jesus Christ and what Jesus Christ teaches.”
Pope Leo speaks on this matter.
In other words, do as Catholic priests are expected to do, live without an openly loving relationship! (It works well in the Catholic Church, doesn’t it? Even among the most elevated of clergy in the Vatican!) – © Mark Alexander

UK Bans Trade with West Bank Settlements as Israel Hits Back
Sep 8, 2026 | The UK has announced measures targeting trade with illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, in a major shift in foreign policy.
Andy Burnham has issued a joint statement with French President Emmanuel Macron and Canada’s Mark Carney, stressing an “unwavering commitment to Israel’s security” alongside a “safe and secure” Palestine.
But the Chief Rabbi has called it a “dark day for Britain’s Jews”, warning that the measures could embolden those who use hatred as a weapon against the Jewish community.

Ein Kaiser für Österreich? | ARTE Re:
Sep 8, 2026 | Ein Kaiser als Staatsoberhaupt? In Österreich und Tschechien setzen sich Monarchisten für die Rückkehr der Krone ein, mit sehnsüchtigem Blick auf den früheren Glanz der Habsburger Dynastie und der österreichisch-ungarischen Doppelmonarchie. Was steckt hinter diesem Wunsch, in Zeiten von Krieg und multiplen Krisen?
Peter Stolberg-Stolberg ist der Ururenkel der österreichischen Kaiserin Elisabeth, besser bekannt als Sisi. Er wünscht sich, genau wie seine nichtadeligen Mitstreiterinnen und Mitstreiter vom Verein Schwarz-Gelbe Allianz, die Rückkehr eines Kaisers als Staatsoberhaupt in Österreich. Dieser soll das Amt des Bundespräsidenten ersetzen und dessen Befugnisse auf Lebenszeit erhalten.
In elf europäischen Staaten gibt es Könige, Fürsten und Großherzöge – meist mit hohen Zustimmungswerten in der Bevölkerung. Sie haben in der Regel nur die Aufgabe zu repräsentieren. Die politische Macht liegt beim Volk, bei gewählten Parlamenten und Regierungen. Doch für manche Menschen hat die Idee einer starken Führung an der Spitze durchaus etwas Verlockendes. Für Peter Stolberg-Stolberg hat die österreichische Republik ausgedient. Der Adel, glaubt er, besitze das Führungspotenzial, das Österreich brauche, um wieder zu alter Stärke zu finden. Woran der Verein Schwarz-Gelbe Allianz in Österreich noch arbeitet, existiert in der Tschechischen Republik bereits - eine Partei, die sich für die Rückkehr der Monarchie starkmacht. Ludmila Džuganová ist Spitzenkandidatin der Kleinstpartei Koruna Česká in Südböhmen. Tschechien ist zwar wirtschaftlich stabil – gesellschaftlich jedoch gespalten. Ludmila Džuganová ist überzeugt, dass ein Monarch mehr Stabilität bieten könnte als vom Volk gewählte Abgeordnete.

« Remigration » des Ukrainiens, apprentissage du russe, levée des sanctions... Le programme pro-Kremlin de l’AfD en Saxe-Anhalt
LE FIGARO : DÉCRYPTAGE - Largement en tête de l’élection régionale dans le Land, Alternative für Deutschland prône la normalisation des échanges commerciaux avec Moscou et réserve un traitement particulièrement dur aux Ukrainiens réfugiés en Allemagne.
Sur la Russie, l’AfD ne parle pas tout à fait d’une même voix. La ligne à tenir face à Moscou divise la formation allemande d’extrême droite, jusque dans ses plus hautes sphères. À la fin de l’année 2025, la participation de plusieurs élus à une conférence à Sotchi avait ainsi provoqué de fortes tensions internes. Ses deux dirigeants incarnent ces nuances : Tino Chrupalla cultive une proximité assumée avec le Kremlin, quand Alice Weidel, tout en défendant une normalisation des échanges avec la Russie, mise davantage sur un rapprochement avec Donald Trump. L’AfD de Saxe-Anhalt et son dirigeant Ulrich Siegmund appartiennent au premier de ces deux groupes, sans aucun doute.
Dans ce Land de 2,1 millions d’habitants de l’ex-RDA, le parti a enregistré dimanche 6 septembre la plus large victoire de l’extrême droite en Allemagne depuis la Seconde Guerre mondiale, sur la base d’un projet ouvertement prorusse. Le vaste et dense « programme de gouvernement » publié en début d’année plaide ainsi pour une « normalisation des relations commerciales germano-russes ». Celle-ci passe, d’abord, par la levée des sanctions contre la Russie, jugées « néfastes », en ce qu’elles ont « durement affecté l’économie locale ». « Avant le conflit ukrainien, la Russie était l’un des principaux partenaires commerciaux de la Saxe-Anhalt. Suite aux sanctions imposées par l’UE à la Russie en 2022, les échanges commerciaux entre les entreprises saxonnes-anhaltaines et russes sont quasiment à l’arrêt », est-il expliqué. » | Par Adrien Bez | mardi 8 septembre 2026

Trump Floats Renaming New Mexico as ‘New America,’ Prompting Pushback
THE NEW YORK TIMES: The suggestion, posted on social media, appeared to be the latest in the president’s efforts to alter geographic names.

President Trump appeared to suggest on Sunday that New Mexico should be renamed “New America,” prompting swift backlash from the state’s Democratic leaders over his latest effort to put an American stamp on geographic names.
On social media, Mr. Trump shared an image of a map of New Mexico with the word “Mexico” crossed out with a red X and replaced with “America.” The White House re-shared the image shortly after on its official X account.
The president posted again several hours later, with what appeared to be an A.I. video of him placing a label with the word “America” over “Mexico” on a “Welcome to New Mexico” road sign.
Mr. Trump has no legal authority to rename any state, which in New Mexico’s case is written into its Constitution. Any proposed change would have to originate within the state, a prospect that New Mexico’s Democratic leaders rejected forcefully on Sunday. » | Dan Watson | Monday, September 7, 2026

German Far-right's Breakthrough Shakes Europe to Its Core • FRANCE 24 English
Sep 7, 2026 | Not enough to win outright but enough to shake Germany and Europe to their core: the far-right Alternative für Deutschland trouncing the ruling conservatives in the impoverished former East German region of Saxony-Anhalt. We’ll ask about the consequences of voting for an anti-immigrant, pro-Russian party that wants schools to teach less about the ills of Hitler and more the glory of Bismarck.
Will Sunday’s result further fuel the momentum of the far-right in places like Sweden which votes next Sunday or here in France where the far-right’s the odds-on favourite in next spring’s presidential election? Here you see the president of Marine Le Pen’s party Jordan Bardella who, after dropping in on Nigel Farage Reform UK party, was invited to speak to Italian business leaders at a weekend forum. A further normalization of a party that once seemed fringe?
As for the mainstream, be it France or Germany, what’s it got to offer to win back voters from MAGA and Putin-backed formations? You might ask who is on shakier ground: Germany’s Friedrich Merz or France’s Emmanuel Macron?

How Will the Far-right AfD's Electoral Rise Impact Germany? | Inside Story
Sep 7, 2026 | The Alternative for Germany is on top in Sunday's election in the east German state of Saxony-Anhalt, with about 44 percent of the vote. It's benefited from voters' economic concerns and anger over immigration. The party is also leading in national polls. But Germany's domestic intelligence agency has classified its branch in Saxony-Anhalt as a proven right-wing extremist group, a label the AfD rejects. Chancellor Friedrich Merz insists there can be no co-operation with the AfD, and mainstream German parties have been maintaining a 'firewall' against forming coalitions with the far-right. But it's not clear if the strategy will hold.

The Far-right Win Big in Germany - and It's Sending Shockwaves through Europe
Sep 7, 2026 | Germany’s far-right party has won a major victory in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt, although it remains to be seen whether the AfD will be able to form a government there.
Nevertheless, the result has sent shockwaves not only through Germany, but across Europe too. For the first time since the end of the Second World War, a far-right party could gain power in a German state.
Why is the AfD surging? How much is its success being driven by immigration, economic frustration and anger at the political establishment? And what could its rise mean for Germany’s relationship with Russia, NATO and the EU?
Matt Frei is joined by author and commentator John Kampfner and Dr Sarah Wagner, a researcher in political science at Queen’s University Belfast, to examine whether this is a political blip or a watershed moment for Germany and Europe.

Ratko Mladić, the ‘Butcher of Bosnia’, Given Hero’s Funeral in Serbia
THE GUARDIAN: Fanfare at Belgrade funeral of man convicted of genocide raises questions from EU over Serbia’s membership plan

Thousands of mourners have gathered in Belgrade for the funeral of Ratko Mladić, a Serbian general convicted of orchestrating the worst massacre in Europe since the second world war, and whose hero’s return home has raised international alarm.
Known as the “Butcher of Bosnia” for his role during the Balkans genocide in the 1990s, Mladić died in prison in late August aged 84 while serving a life sentence for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Mladić remained a beloved figure among many Serbians, including politicians, and his coffin was flown to Serbia on a government plane, draped in national flags and carried from the plane by uniformed soldiers. As his casket was driven from the airport, men gathered by roads and displayed banners honouring Mladić.
On Monday, thousands of people gathered in front of a small church in the Serbian capital to pay their respects to Mladić. Armed forces stood guard at his casket, on top of which was laid his signature military hat as well as a sword. A display of medals lay in front.
Outside the church, Serbian flags had been hung nearby, and a huge banner unfurled across the street read: “Welcome, General, thanks be to your mother for bearing a hero.” » | Oliver Holmes | Monday, September 7, 2026

Far-right AfD Win in Germany Is ‘Grave Moment’ for Europe, Politicians Warn
THE GUARDIAN: Mainstream politicians express alarm while lead candidate in Saxony-Anhalt welcomes congratulations from Elon Musk

Mainstream politicians around Europe have expressed alarm after the far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) swept to a historic state election victory in Germany, while nationalist figures cheered the result as a mandate for change.
While falling just short of an absolute majority, the AfD surged into first place in the Saxony-Anhalt state election on Sunday, exit polls showed, putting the far right within reach of power at the state level for the first time since the second world war.
Spain’s socialist prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, told a party gathering in Madrid on Monday that the result showed that “the extremist threat, largely thanks to the surrender of the traditional right, is gaining ground in Europe and in the world”.
France’s finance minister, Roland Lescure, said it “clearly sends out a very, very worrying signal … This shows that we face a major challenge in the face of a populist wave which is spreading around the world today and which we must resist.”
Lescure’s comments echoed similar remarks on Sunday evening by France’s European affairs minister, Benjamin Haddad, who posted on social media: “To see the far right prevail in the German regional election marks a very grave moment for Europe.” » | Jon Henley | Europe correspondent | Monday, September 7, 2026
Es kommen wieder die Nazis! Mir ist ganz klar, und es sollte Ihnen auch ganz klar sein, dass etliche Deutsche wenig oder gar nichts von ihrer Geschichte gelernt haben. Dass sie bereit sind, alles aufs Spiel zu setzen ist nichts weniger als erstaunlich! Es ist auch beunruhigend. — © Mark Alexander
