The U.S. would recover its aid through frozen Russian assets, while Europe is left with a $100B reconstruction burden.

Europe’s security concerns are largely ignored, despite rising fears in the Baltics.

With battlefield setbacks and dwindling resources, Ukraine now faces the risk of accepting even harsher terms later.

If Trump insists on a Nov. 27 deadline, Ukraine may be forced to fight on with only European support—an unsustainable path.

According to the ACSS report, Somalia is entering a period of acute fragility driven by political fragmentation, the breakdown of the federal system, and rising regional rivalries.

Al-Shabaab’s advance toward Mogadishu poses a threat not only to national security but to regional stability as well.

The report underscores that the rift between the federal government and member states, the weakness of the Somali National Army, and uncertainty surrounding AUSSOM have left the country increasingly exposed.

Without a broad political consensus, Somalia risks falling into an even deeper crisis.

Now more than ever, Somalia needs decisive action from both national leaders and the international community.
