International Big Cat Alliance comes into force as a global legal entity
Monday, 3 February 2025 India's International Big Cat Alliance (IBCA) has become an official inter-governmental organisation aimed at conserving seven big cat species globally. Launched by Prime Minister Modi, the IBCA is now operational with 27 countries consenting to join, including India, Nicaragua, Eswatini, Somalia, and Liberia.
India has reportedly declined a U.S. offer to buy F-35 stealth fighter jets, according to Bloomberg. The offer was made by President Trump during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Instead of purchasing American jets, India is prioritizing joint defense manufacturing initiatives and has shown greater interest in the Russian Su-57, especially after its debut at Aero India.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs downplayed Bloomberg’s report, confirming no formal talks on the F-35 have taken place yet. Meanwhile, the U.S. has slapped 25% tariffs on Indian imports due to a failed trade deal, escalating tensions. Trump also announced India would face a penalty over its continued defense ties with Russia. This deepening rift could impact U.S.-India defense cooperation and reshape future arms procurement.

A Comoros-flagged livestock ship was attacked off Yemen’s Red Sea coast near Mocha by unidentified gunmen in a small boat. The vessel was en route from Somalia to Saudi Arabia when it came under fire. Though no group has claimed responsibility, the incident adds to growing fears over shipping safety amid ongoing Houthi threats. Security firm Ambrey warns vessels to avoid eastern waters near the Hanish Islands. With the U.S. drawing back and Israel escalating strikes, tensions in the Red Sea continue to rise.

Venezuela has slammed the latest U.S. travel ban, with Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello calling America a “dangerous place” where Venezuelans are persecuted “for no reason.” The backlash follows President Trump’s proclamation banning entry from 12 nations, including Afghanistan, Iran, Somalia, and Yemen. Somali Ambassador Dahir Abdi says he’s open to dialogue, but many see the ban as discriminatory. The White House defends it as “common sense” national security. Trump cited a recent attack in Colorado by Egyptian nationals—though Egypt is not on the list.

Former President Donald Trump has signed a new proclamation banning nationals from 12 countries, including Afghanistan, Iran, Somalia, and Sudan, from entering the U.S., citing national security threats and poor vetting standards. The White House says the ban will take effect June 9 and partially restricts travel from seven additional nations. Trump linked the move to a recent attack in Colorado and emphasized the need to prevent unvetted migration. The policy echoes his earlier "Muslim Ban," drawing controversy but winning court backing. Certain exemptions, like green card holders, remain.

Trump stunned viewers by asking the President of Liberia — an officially English-speaking nation — “Where did you learn English?” The awkward exchange drew laughter, disbelief, and criticism online, with many calling it culturally ignorant and diplomatically embarrassing. Liberia, founded by freed American slaves in the 1800s, has English as its official language. The gaffe adds to Trump's long list of headline-making moments as he continues to dominate the spotlight on the global stage.
