Eurovision Shockwave: Bulgaria’s Dara won Eurovision 2026 in Vienna with “Bangaranga,” beating Israel’s Noam Bettan to take the country’s first-ever title—yet the night was dominated by protests and a boycott by Spain, Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Iceland and others over Israel’s participation amid the Gaza war. Tech & AI Access: Malta became the first country to offer every citizen free ChatGPT Plus for a year, but only after completing a University of Malta AI literacy course. Arctic Security: Canada is deepening defence ties with Nordic partners, including plans to build a “Rangers”-style presence in Greenland as Arctic tensions rise. Energy & Industry: Ireland’s data-centre push is under pressure from high electricity costs, with speakers warning that power and planning bottlenecks could slow expansion. Travel Watch: Cruise demand is holding up despite recent hantavirus and norovirus scares, while UK airports expand e-gates for younger children from July 8.
