European Geopolitics Digest

European nations are navigating complex geopolitical shifts, with a particular focus on the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and potential future negotiations. France, Germany, and the UK are reportedly working on a framework for eventual talks, despite Russia's current lack of interest. This diplomatic maneuvering occurs against a backdrop of concerns regarding Donald Trump's potential influence on international relations.

Beyond the immediate conflict, Russia is also accused of actively campaigning to undermine Moldova's pro-Western government through various means, including financial incentives to religious figures and vote-buying schemes. In a separate development, Liechtenstein has announced a significant change to its succession rules, allowing women to ascend the throne, a move made on the country's national day. Meanwhile, the Eurovision Song Contest is considering rule changes to prevent tactical voting and has proposed barring countries in "armed conflict" zones from hosting the event.
