Articles about the fate of the Palestinians — whether in Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem or refugee camps — are often met with a reproach. Why give such importance to the topic when there are so many bloody conflicts in the world? Don't Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Afghanistan, the Central African Republic, Myanmar or Haiti deserve the same attention? - Outside in / Comment

In the Soviet Union's final decades, metro building boomed, the stations an expression not of utilitarianism but of utopia. Visions of an ideal future took shape in concrete, marble and glass. - 2025/07 / article

The orange, redolent of sunshine and vitality, was long an object of desire in the western world. But its history includes labour struggles and boycotts as well as the colourful myths depicted on wrappers. - 2025/07 / article

Even before 2014, Crimea had never quite found its place in independent Ukraine. Originally an autonomous republic within the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR), it was transferred to Ukraine by Stalin in 1945; it became an oblast of Soviet Ukraine in 1954. In the early 1990s, as the Soviet Union collapsed, the peninsula's Russian-majority population (67% according to the 1989 census) were concerned at the rise of Ukrainian nationalism in government circles in Kyiv.

And now – after Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen – it's Iran's turn. Soon it will be easier to list the places in the Middle East that Israel hasn't bombed in 2025. To justify its latest offensive, Tel Aviv, as usual, invoked its right to ‘self-defence'. And, as usual, Western leaders played follow-my-leader. ‘We affirm that Israel has a right to defend itself. We reiterate our support for the security of Israel,' G7 leaders declared . Yet the facts scarcely leave room for (…) - 2025/07 / editorial
