Urgent review of EU development aid to Palestine finds no inadvertent financing of terrorism
The European Commission said on Tuesday it will proceed with payments of development aid to the Palestinian territories this month after its internal screening identified no diversion of funds to terrorist groups.
In a bold move, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and French President Emmanuel Macron have slammed U.S. President Donald Trump’s ongoing campaign against American higher education. With the unveiling of a €500 million initiative called “Choose Europe for Science,” Europe is offering a welcoming refuge for researchers worldwide. As Trump’s actions threaten the foundation of American universities, von der Leyen and Macron are stepping up with a plan to attract top scientists and push back against political interference in research. This video dives into the details of Europe’s powerful response to Trump’s controversial attacks on higher education and the future of science.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has delivered a bold statement: “The West as we knew it no longer exists.” In a powerful new interview, she blames President Trump’s aggressive tariffs—20% on EU goods and 25% on cars—for collapsing the once-strong transatlantic alliance. As EU-U.S. trade tensions grow, the EU is pivoting toward new global partners. Von der Leyen says 87% of the world’s trade now happens outside the U.S., marking a clear shift in economic power. Is the era of a united West truly over?

Columbia University witnessed fresh unrest as pro-Palestinian protesters occupied Butler Library, prompting the university to summon the NYPD. Several demonstrators were arrested for trespassing after ignoring dispersal warnings. Tensions soared after the Trump administration pulled $400M in funding over antisemitism claims and began visa reviews of protesters. Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed efforts to deport international demonstrators. Critics say the administration is using immigration and anti-terror laws to silence student dissent. Columbia leadership condemned the unrest, calling it a disruption of academic order.
