What signals does US-Houthi ceasefire deal send?

Given the relentless pressure on the Houthis of President Donald Trump after taking office, the news may appear unexpected to the international community.

France-US-Japan joint exercise in Philippine Sea stirs up regional situation

European defense autonomy remains an arduous task

It is evident that while Macron's call for strengthening European defense autonomy is highly relevant, Europe must confront multiple challenges both internally and externally.
