US President Donald Trump’s administration has set forth a new national security strategy that paints European allies as weak and aims to reassert America’s dominance in the western hemisphere.
The document released on Friday by the White House is sure to roil long-standing US allies in Europe for its scathing critiques of their migration and free speech policies, suggesting they face the “prospect of civilisational erasure” and raising doubts about their long-term reliability as American partners.

MADRID, Dec 5 (Reuters) - Spain is investigating whether a recent swine fever outbreak in Barcelona could have been caused by a laboratory leak, the Agriculture Ministry said on Friday.
The country, the European Union's top pork producer, is trying to reassure trading partners after 13 wild boars tested positive for the virus in hills outside the city. The disease is harmless to humans but can be deadly for pigs and wild boars.

European country known for stunning women suffers drought of men — forcing would-be brides to ‘hire’ husbands for housework
These women were forced to enact a special “man-date.”

According to a recent report by Eurostat, Latvia boasts 15.5% more women than men – over three times the average rate in the European Union, according to local media. Meanwhile, over the age of 65, there are twice as many women as men, per the World Atlas.

MANHATTAN (KSNT) – This year is the 50th anniversary of the first case of herbicide resistance in Kansas, and Kansas State University is reflecting on what has been done and what’s left to do with the issue.
The first known case of herbicide resistance in Kansas came in 1976 when populations of kochia, an early spring weed/herb native to Europe and Asia, growing near railroads were found to be resistant to atrazine, a popular herbicide used in corn and sorghum fields. Today, this resistant kochia can be found across the state.
