I wanted to share this map that was published by the Italian newpaper "Corriere della sera" on the 18th January, 2026. People and journalists often speak about the so called risk of third world war. It is not the case, as there is already a global war.
The map shows all the current wars and tensions across the world.
On the 22nd of June, 2025, US cruise missiles hit Iran. US missiles also hit Somalia and Yemen.
Israel is still carrying on the ethnic cleansing of poor Palestinian people in Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem.
Israel is at war with Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.
On the 25th December, 2025, US missiles hit Nigeria's Jihad groups.
On the 3rd January, 2026, Venezuela President, Maduro, was kidnapped by the Americans. The US has seized a sixth Venezuela-linked oil tanker in the Caribbean Sea. These are acts of war.
The Ukraine-Russia war still continues and Kiev has already lost more than one fifth of its territory.
Trump has just threatened Cuba, Mexico, Colombia and Canada.
Trump wants to occupy Greenland. He has just said that European countries that opposed to his plan to occupy/buy Greenland will face 10% tariffs customs from February.
Some European countries will send warships, submarines, troops and military equipment to Greenland as soon as possible.
Trump imposed high tariff rate on US trading partners, including China, Mexico and Canada, on autos eavy trucks, aluminium, furniture, lumber, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors and copper, among others. The highest average rate since 1943 ‼
We should learn from history. With regards to Greenland, Trump's behaviour reminds me Hitler's justfication for invading the Sudeteland in Czechoslovakia in 1939. He claimed that if Germany didn't take it, then others might, which was the main part of Hitler's justification. Trump sounds exactly the same, considering that he says there is immediate security threat to Greenland from Russia or China.
The German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Fredrick Hegel wrote that while history offers lessons, people, nations and leaders often fail to apply them.
Hi Giorgio,
ReplyDeleteI read your post with great interest. Giorgio, my friend, when I talk about World War III, my opinion is different, at least partially. I often say that the Covid-19 pandemic was part of World War III.
Giorgio, I send you greetings!
