What are the secondary consequences of Hurricane Erin, and which regions are most at risk?

Climate Central's preliminary analysis suggests climate change made Erin's rapid intensification 100 times more likely due to unusually warm ocean waters. Erin's exceptional size and projected path, while not directly hitting land, pose life-threatening risks of currents, waves, and flooding to the Bahamas, Bermuda, the US East Coast, and Atlantic Canada.

What are the long-term implications of this meeting for the security of Ukraine and the broader geopolitical landscape?

The central theme was the need for credible security guarantees to deter further Russian aggression, highlighted by the historical example of France's inaction towards Czechoslovakia in 1938. While agreement on the need for guarantees existed, Trump remained reserved on specifics, such as US troop deployment, although he emphasized support if Europeans took the lead. A potential Putin-Zelenskyy meeting is being considered as a next step.
