Danish Defense Minister and top candidate of Denmark's Venstre party, Troels Lund Poulsen (left), and Danish Prime Minister and top candidate of the Social Democrat Party, Mette Frederiksen (right), attend a debate in Copenhagen on March 15, 2026.
Denmark's General Elections: Potential Outcomes and Their Implications
Denmark will hold parliamentary elections on March 24. The campaign has been shaped by debates over welfare, taxation, migration and the pace of the green transition, as well as tensions surrounding U.S. demands over Greenland. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called the election while seeking to capitalize on a partial rebound in support linked in part to her defiant handling of Washington's pressure on Greenland. However, any new government will likely adopt a somewhat more conciliatory tone in an effort to contain tensions, prevent further escalation and reach a compromise if possible. Meanwhile, the governing center-left Social Democrats, center-right Venstre and centrist Moderates remain weakened by years of cross-bloc compromise and voter fatigue. Polling suggests the election is unlikely to produce a clean or ideologically cohesive majority, leaving coalition-building dependent on broad alliances or issue-based support from smaller and potentially opposition parties.

Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi addresses a news conference at the Prime Minister's office in Tokyo on Feb. 18.
Iran War Heightens Stakes of Key Takaichi-Trump Summit
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi will likely be able to make sufficient concessions to U.S. President Donald Trump during their summit to avoid U.S. retaliation and/or a slowdown in her own military modernization policies, but a protracted Iran war could nonetheless undermine her economic growth plans. Takaichi will visit Washington on March 19 to meet with Trump for the first time since she was reappointed as premier on Feb. 18, aiming to firm up relations with Japan's top defense ally and second-largest trade partner. Until recently, the meeting was expected to focus on implementing their July trade deal, cooperating on energy and technology supply chains and coordinating military modernization efforts to jointly deter Chinese aggression against Taiwan. On March 14 and 15, however, a more fraught issue was added to the list when Trump demanded that U.S. allies and partners like Japan, South Korea and the United Kingdom assist the

The Obstacles Facing the U.S. Plan for Strait of Hormuz Naval Escorts
A U.S.-led naval mission to protect ships through the Strait of Hormuz would likely only commence once the intensity of the Iran conflict dies down, and even then, such a mission would take weeks to organize and yield only a limited resumption of shipping, unless a comprehensive de-escalation agreement is also reached. In recent days, U.S. President Donald Trump has been increasing pressure on countries to help secure the Strait of Hormuz, where shipping has dropped over 90% since the U.S.-Israel war on Iran began on Feb. 28. In a March 16 post on Truth Social, Trump called on China, France, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom and "others" to send naval vessels to the Middle East. The following day, he said it would be "very bad for the future of NATO" if the alliance's members did not help protect commercial ships transiting the strait from Iranian attacks. But despite

Rwandan soldiers patrol in Mocimboa da Praia, northern Mozambique, on Aug. 12, 2021.
Will Rwanda Withdraw Troops From Northern Mozambique?
Rwanda is unlikely to press ahead with a complete troop withdrawal from Mozambique for the foreseeable future, but the European Union's refusal to provide fresh funding would raise the prospect of a partial drawdown of Rwandan forces that would portend rising security risks in the northern Cabo Delgado province and could prompt Maputo to expand counterterrorism cooperation with the United States. On March 14, Rwandan Foreign Affairs Minister Olivier Nduhungirehe said the Rwandan government was ready to withdraw its troops from Mozambique's northern Cabo Delgado province, where they are stationed to combat a jihadist insurgency, if Kiagli's "efforts and achievements [were] not appreciated." This came after Bloomberg reported on March 12 that funding from the European Union for Rwanda's military deployment in Cabo Delgado is set to expire in May and that EU officials have not yet planned any discussions on a possible renewal. Prior to the Bloomberg report, the
