McCarthy's turbulent start
Finally, after four days of grueling ballots laced with coercing, pleading, arm-twisting, bribing and finger-jabbing, Kevin McCarthy was able to flip some 20 conservative holdouts to become his supporters - or at least not explicit opponents in his bid for the speaker's gravel. This kind of intraparty standoff is unprecedented in modern times.

Biden's new management style
For the last few months, U.S. President Joe Biden, considered to be a rather unglamorous politician with limited oratory capabilities, has been using an interesting strategy to compensate for this lacuna in his personality.

After victory, Lula faces massive challenges

Kissinger's pragmatism on Ukraine war
Being a high priest of realpolitik, Henry Kissinger, the 99-year-old former U.S. secretary of state, is undoubtedly among the most pragmatic statesmen in recent times.

Why is Pelosi active in global hotspots?
Why has U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi embarked upon a series of jetting into hotspots one after another - Kyiv, Taipei and now Yerevan - in recent months? The only plausible answer behind the sudden surge in her high-octane diplomatic voyages can be traced to the forthcoming mid-term polls in November.

Floods in Pakistan: looming humanitarian crisis
“I have never seen climate carnage on the scale of the floods here in Pakistan. As our planet continues to warm, all countries will increasingly suffer losses and damage from climate beyond their capacity to adapt. This is a global crisis, it demands a global response,” wrote U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres in a tweet at the end of his two-day solidarity trip to Pakistan.

Is Putin main beneficiary of Draghi's exit?
The resignation of Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi, after his fractured ruling alliance melted away due to infighting, is undoubtedly a major jolt for the political spectrum of this European country, which has been witnessing one of the world's longest periods of volatility in the postwar era - 19 prime ministers in 33 years.

New leadership in Philippines
With the ascension of Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the namesake son of an ousted dictator, as the Philippines' 17th president, which is perhaps one of the greatest political comebacks in recent history, the fabric of Philippine politics has finally completed the tectonic shift that had been rumbling under the surface for the last decade.
