Last update: 6 hours ago

Modi’s Europe-and-Gulf push: India’s PM Narendra Modi has just left for Abu Dhabi to kick off a six-day, five-nation tour of the UAE, Netherlands, Sweden, Norway and Italy, aiming to lock in deals on clean energy, green hydrogen, semiconductors, AI, defence and digital trade—starting with talks on energy security and LPG/strategic petroleum reserves. Shipping emissions in the spotlight: The IMO’s MEPC-84 approved a new North East Atlantic emission control area covering Greenland, Iceland and nearby waters, with rules due to start in 2027–2028. Arctic geopolitics heats up: Separate reporting says the US is discussing three new bases in Greenland as part of a broader strategy toward Russia and China. Health and travel disruption: A hantavirus-hit cruise ship (MV Hondius) is still waiting on clarity about whether it will sail on schedule. Iceland policy move: Iceland has resigned from the Energy Charter Treaty, arguing it conflicts with energy sovereignty.
