Greenland: A New Bone of Contention Among Global Powers



Former U.S. President Donald Trump’s statement regarding Greenland — that if America does not take control, Russia or China will — is not merely rhetoric. It reflects a deeper reality: the global power struggle has entered a new phase, where even allies are no longer safe from strategic ambitions.



Asia: A Failed Pressure Zone



The United States failed to fully assert dominance in Asia primarily due to China’s strategic partnership with Pakistan. This alliance blocked American leverage and reshaped the regional balance. Asia could not be bent to U.S. will, forcing Washington to look elsewhere.



Middle East: Slipping Out of Control



The Middle East also gradually slipped from American hands:


  • Pakistan–Saudi Arabia strategic coordination reduced U.S. maneuvering space.
  • The UAE, traditionally aligned with Western interests, lost flexibility due to the same regional realignments.
  • Iran’s resilience and Israel’s inability to advance further neutralized American momentum in the Gulf.



The result: the Gulf is no longer an uncontested American sphere of influence.



Latin America: Venezuela Standoff



When the U.S. attempted to advance in Venezuela, Russia stood firmly in opposition, preventing Washington from securing decisive influence there as well.



Africa: China’s Rising Model



Africa is now awakening politically and economically, and China’s influence is expanding rapidly. The reason China outperforms the U.S. and Russia in Africa is simple:


China arrives with development, infrastructure, and investment — not just military pressure.


This development-first approach has made China a preferred partner across the continent.



Greenland: Europe Becomes the Target



With Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, and Africa either contested or slipping away, the strategic focus has shifted northward.


Greenland is not about land — it is about control of Europe, Arctic routes, resources, and future power corridors.


This leads to a stark conclusion:


The snake has begun to eat its own offspring.


In other words, America is now prepared to dominate even its closest allies — Europe itself — to preserve global supremacy.


Conclusion


Greenland symbolizes a dangerous transformation in global politics:


  • Allies are expendable
  • Geography is destiny
  • Power now moves inward, not outward

The struggle is no longer between East and West alone — it is between survival and decline for global powers.

Pakistan’s Dynamic Diplomatic Rise; From Regional Player to Global Power Broker In the contemporary geopolitical arena, Pakistan has emerged as a dynamic and decisive force, successfully navigating the complexities of South Asia, the Middle East, and beyond.

A Turning Point: From India-Pakistan Conflict to Broader Influence Pakistan’s diplomatic momentum began with its deft handling of the long-standing India-Pakistan conflict. While tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors have persisted for decades, Islamabad’s recent diplomatic strategies have significantly isolated New Delhi at international forums. Through measured responses, confi...

Unveiling the Truth: The Age of Hazrat Aisha (RA) at Marriage – A Historical Perspective.

Unveiling the Truth: The Age of Hazrat Aisha (RA) at Marriage – A Historical Perspective Introduction One of the most widely debated and misunderstood aspects of Islamic history is the age of Hazrat Aisha (RA) at the time of her marriage to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Traditional narrations, primarily attributed to Sahih Bukhari, state that she was six years old at the time of marriage and nine at the time of consummation. However, deeper historical analysis and corroboration with other authentic records suggest a different reality. This article aims to clarify the matter, not to dismiss the hadith literature, but to harmonize historical facts and defend the dignity of the Prophet ﷺ and Hazrat Aisha (RA) against unfounded accusations. The Traditional Narrative The most cited hadith comes from Sahih Bukhari (Volume 7, Book 62, Hadith 64): “Narrated Aisha: The Prophet married me when I was six years old, and consummated the marriage when I was nine years old.” However, ha...
