The King, Prime Minister Rob Jetten and State Secretary Eric van der Burg will visit Sint Eustatius on 16 November to commemorate the 250th anniversary of The First Salute: the gun salute with which the island greeted an American ship in 1776.
Isack Hadjar will remain Max Verstappen’s team-mate at Red Bull in 2027. The contract extension comes shortly before his planned return in Azerbaijan, after he missed three races with a wrist injury.
The onboard computer for the Ramses asteroid mission has been switched on together with connected systems for the first time. This marks a step by the assembly team towards the planned launch in 2028, needed to rendezvous with the asteroid Apophis around its flyby of Earth.
According to the ECB, 9.96 million people took part in the public survey on new euro banknotes. Their preferences have not yet been disclosed. A decision on the design concept is expected around the end of 2026.
The European space probe Hera is expected to arrive in November 2026 at Dimorphos, the asteroid struck by NASA’s DART in 2022. The mission is intended to establish how much the collision changed the small celestial body.
The secret records subpoena that has been linked to Jim Jordan deserves scrutiny. Burnett’s lack of awareness does not prove deception. The fundamental question is how parliamentary protections work when the person concerned knows nothing of the request.
The US arms industry is delivering more, but stockpiles of missile interceptors in particular are under pressure. Restoring them could take years. Trump’s promise of abundance fails to recognise that being able to keep attacking is not the same as maintaining sufficient protection and reserves.
The EPA expects lower electricity tariffs in the longer term after emissions standards are scrapped. But the $310 billion measures something else — and leaves climate and health damage out of the financial calculation.
Prices rose sharply under Biden. Trump does not specify which term he means in his comparison. The general price level has also risen during his second term, and petrol is more expensive than when he took office.
Washington has already made trade with Belarusian potash companies easier, partly in exchange for the release of political prisoners. The promised benefit for American farmers is less concrete: price, availability and delivery remain uncertain.
Ukraine’s strikes are hurting a Russian source of revenue. An energy truce could offer Kyiv protection, but only if it works both ways. Trump’s own Iran policy also belongs in any explanation of expensive diesel.
The exclusion of CNN, MS NOW and Politico went beyond words: press passes were deactivated and workplaces became inaccessible. The issue is not unrestricted access, but whether presidential displeasure can justify withdrawing regular press access.
Five days after his phone call with Putin, Trump demanded an end to Ukrainian strikes on Russian fuel facilities. He blamed Kyiv for the diesel shortage and ruled out the Middle East. The price history tells a different story.
NASA says its Guam Remote Station has been restored after damage from Typhoon Mawar. Its September 16 update describes a return to service and a September 10 ceremony; the operational claims remain the agency’s account.
A $5,000 cheque sounds concrete. The funding in the White House statement does not. With 249.75 million recipients, estimated additional tariff revenue for one year covers only about 10% of the bill.
The Dutch cabinet announces an extra €327 million in non-military support for Ukraine and an extra €1.1 billion for development cooperation. Both amounts cover 2027–2029. The news release supports the announcement, but does not prove actual spending.
US importers bore almost all the costs of the tariffs examined for 2018–2021, the USITC concluded. But the bill at the border is not the same as the bill at the checkout.
