At the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier this year, Finnish President Alexander Stubb noted: “I have been to Davos 11 times, but I do not remember a year when, in just the first 21 days, five crises — Venezuela, Ukraine, Greenland, Iran, and Gaza — were simultaneously thrown onto the table for discussion.” Even a veteran politician like Stubb likely did not foresee that just over a month after...

Sefa kart/iStock via Getty Images U.S. President Donald Trump said the U.S. should play a role in selecting Iran’s next leader, following the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in recent U.S.-Israeli strikes. "We're going to have to choose that person along with Iran. We're going to have to choose that person," Trump told Reuters in a telephonic interview, adding that the goal was to ensure a leader who could bring stability and avoid renewed conflict. "We want to be involved in the process of choosing the person who is going to lead Iran into the future, so we don't have to go back every five years and do this again and again. We want somebody that's going to be great for the people, great for the country," Trump said . The president was also drawing comparisons to the U.S. influence in Venezuela after removing Nicolás Maduro earlier in 2026. D elcy Rodríguez was named the interim leader who cooperated with U.S. demands on oil access after Maduro's ouster. Trump voiced support for Iranian Kurdish groups based in Iraq if they decide to launch attacks against Iranian security forces, saying such a move would be “wonderful.” He also suggested that Mojtaba Khamenei, the leader’s son who has emerged as a possible successor, was unlikely to become Iran’s next leader. The president dismissed concerns over rising oil prices. "They'll drop very rapidly when this is over. And if they rise, they rise. But this is far more important than having gasoline prices go up a little bit," he said. When asked about how long the conflict would last, Trump mentioned, " it's moving along ahead of schedule and much stronger than anybody would have ever expected."

Pentagon labels AI company Anthropic a supply chain risk toggle caption Patrick Sison/AP The Trump administration is following through with its threat to designate artificial intelligence company Anthropic as a supply chain risk in an unprecedented move that could force other government contractors to stop using the AI chatbot Claude. The Pentagon said in a statement Thursday that it has "officially informed Anthropic leadership the company and its products are deemed a supply chain risk, effective immediately." The decision appeared to shut down the opportunity for further negotiation with Anthropic, nearly a week after President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth accused the company of endangering national security. Sponsor Message Trump and Hegseth announced a series of threatened punishments last Friday, on the eve of the Iran war, after Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei refused to back down over concerns the company's products could be used for mass surveillance of Americans or autonomous weapons. Amodei said in a statement Thursday that "we do not believe this action is legally sound, and we see no choice but to challenge it in court." The Pentagon statement said, "this has been about one fundamental principle: the military being able to use technology for all lawful purposes. The military will not allow a vendor to insert itself into the chain of command by restricting the lawful use of a critical capability and put our warfighters at risk." Amodei countered that the narrow exceptions Anthropic sought to limit surveillance and autonomous weapons "relate to high-level usage areas, and not operational decision-making." He said there were "productive conversations" with the Pentagon in recent days over whether it could keep using Claude or establish a "smooth transition" if no agreement was reached. Trump gave the military six months to phase out Claude, which is already widely embedded in military and national security platforms. Amodei said it's a priori...
