Burkina Faso’s diplomatic realignment: a true path to sovereignty or a new dependency?

On June 26, 2026, Burkina Faso formally announced the severance of its diplomatic ties with France.

Algeria vs Austria 2026: Why the ‘match of shame’ is unlikely to happen again

Recent group stage results have clarified the picture for Austria and Algeria. However, calculating the ideal outcome to avoid facing Spain in the round of 32 has become much more complicated.The irony of history is not always just a figure of speech.

In 1982, the final group matches were not played simultaneously. Austria and West Germany knew that a narrow victory for the Germans would qualify both teams at the expense of Algeria. The result was a tame 1-0 win for West Germany, with much of the match lacking genuine engagement.44 years later, the scenario is quite different. With the expansion to 48...
