The execution of the February 28th attack was flawless. What has failed since is not the sword, but the steady hand that wields it.

The responsibility of the Government of Spain, the abdication of the European Commission, the vindication of the Schengen partners and Morocco's unpaid debt.

The Supreme Court ruling as the trigger: an analysis of diplomatic incompetence, border negligence and geopolitical reorganisation.

The Supreme Court ruling as the trigger, the Spanish government's border negligence and its diplomatic consequences in Europe and the Maghreb.

The pause lasted seventy-two hours, not one more.

The events of the last twenty-four hours paint an unsettling yet perfectly coherent picture.

There are days when current events seem to take shape on their own, and this is one of them.

This analysis stems from a conviction that must be stated plainly: fire has ceased to be merely an environmental issue and has become a matter of national security, territorial economy, and European strategic positioning.

The freedom of the seas is no longer a given: it's a price to pay. Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb have ceased to be maritime passages and have become keys to energy, commercial, and political strangulation.

There are days when the world map is better understood by looking at the water than at the land. Yesterday was one of them.

The day can be summarized in a single sentence, and it's worth stating it bluntly because it's the thread from which everything else hangs: on the same Wednesday that the United States bombed Iran for the twelfth consecutive night to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons, it signed a civil nuclear cooperation agreement with Saudi Arabia, accompanied by a bilateral safeguards agreement. Some may see a contradiction there.

Today's events confirm that the war in the Middle East and the war in Ukraine share a common symptom: the erosion of leadership.
