Bij klimaatonderhandelingen staat veiligheid steeds meer centraal, zegt HCSS analist @LauraBirkman in @BNR podcast De Strateeg. Radicalisering en smokkel vinden vaak plaats op locaties die worden getroffen door de klimaatcrisis.

Europa reageerde verdeeld en apathisch op de Israël-Gaza oorlog. Hoog tijd dat het zich herpakt, schrijven HCSS analisten @gerbenbakker en @TimSweijs in het @FD_Nieuws, want deze oorlog is een geopolitiek kruitvat dat ook Europa’s veiligheid bedreigt.
