Canada is overhauling defence procurement as NATO spending pressures mount, while the United States is expanding submarine manufacturing to address industrial bottlenecks affecting its own fleet and future AUKUS deliveries to Australia.
Across the Americas, Belize has asked the OAS to investigate an alleged Guatemalan military flight through its airspace. Brazil’s presidential runoff remains closely contested, Colombia has activated reconstruction funding following August’s earthquake, and slowing growth is testing fiscal discipline in Chile and Argentina.
In Asia-Pacific, China is pushing back against European efforts to reduce strategic supply-chain dependence, while Australia’s High Court has strengthened the role of overseas emissions in coal-project approvals. New Zealand’s latest climate assessment warns of widening economic risks, Japan is building an international semiconductor network around advanced chip production, and AI-related investment is reshaping capital flows and manufacturing across South Korea and Vietnam.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo is expanding geological mapping as competition for critical minerals intensifies. Türkiye’s inflation fight is being complicated by higher energy and freight costs, while Saudi Arabia has restored a crucial oil pipeline bypassing the Strait of Hormuz. US-Iran negotiations continue as nuclear demands, sanctions and Hormuz become increasingly interconnected.
Across Europe, France has tested its M51.3 strategic ballistic missile, Portugal is moving ahead with a major EU-backed military modernisation programme, and Germany plans to expand its frigate fleet following the collapse of a troubled procurement programme. Britain’s investigation around RAF Fairford has widened with another terrorism arrest.
Ireland faces warnings over dependence on multinational tax revenues, while Greenland, Iceland and the Faroe Islands deepen Arctic coordination.
Russia has launched a major missile-and-drone assault on Ukraine, killing at least 11 people and striking energy infrastructure. India, meanwhile, has raised interest rates for the first time since 2023 as inflation pressures return.
