Real Madrid on Wednesday announced the club had reached an agreement to end its long-standing conflict with UEFA over the possible creation of a European Super League, reported Xinhua. The club announced the agreement with a post on its official website reading "UEFA, European Football Clubs and Real Madrid CF reach agreement for the good of European club football." The statement says that after "months of discussions conducted in the best interests of European football, UEFA, European Football Clubs (EFC), and Real Madrid CF announce that they have reached an agreement of principles for the well-being of European club football, respecting the principle of sporting merit with emphasis on long-term club sustainability and the enhancement of fan experience through the use of technology." Real Madrid adds that the agreement will also end any legal dispute with Europa over the Super League. The news comes just a few days after FC Barcelona announced it was leaving the Super League project, which was originally established in 2021, on February 7. The original 12 team project was quickly in trouble when pressure from fans saw the Premier League clubs withdraw, along with Atletico Madrid and the Italian sides. That left Real Madrid and FC Barcelona as the only survivors of the project and Barcelona's withdrawal left Real Madrid alone and with no chance of a Super League taking place, so for all of the words in Wednesday's communique, this is a huge defeat for the club and its president, Florentino Perez.

Saksassa kansallisen Lufthansa-lentoyhtiön lentäjien on määrä tänään aloittaa vuorokauden kestävä työnseisaus. Lakko vaikuttaa kaikkiin saksalaisilta lentokentiltä lähteviin lentoihin. Lentäjien VC-ammattiliitton ja Lufthansan välisissä neuvotteluissa ei toistaiseksi ole löytynyt sopua. Lentäjät haluavat muun muassa parempia eläke-etuja ja työoloja Lufthansan tytäryhtiöissä. Ammattiliiton puheenjohtajan Andreas Pinheiron mukaan VC olisi halunnut välttää lakon, ja työnantajalla olisi ollut kuukausikaupalla aikaa […]

Members of parliament are facing a worrying rise in intimidation and harassment from the public, according to a global report released by the Inter-Parliamentary Union on Wednesday, reported Xinhua. The report, titled "When the public turns hostile: Political violence against parliamentarians," drew on a survey of 519 lawmakers globally and case studies focused on five countries -- Argentina, Benin, Italy, Malaysia and the Netherlands -- to reflect diverse political and regional contexts. Overall, 71 percent of all respondents reported having experienced violence from the public, whether online, offline or both, according to the report. The report attributed the surge in public hostility to the rise of political polarization, economic and social pressures that fuel frustration, the amplification of anger through social media, and declining trust in public institutions. With the increase in hostility, many members of parliament report self-censorship, avoid some public appearances, experience negative side effects for their family members, and sometimes quit or decline to run again in elections. The report called on political and parliamentary leadership to set boundaries when it comes to acceptable public discourse and to ensure that intimidation does not succeed in silencing dissenting and minority voices.

U.S. President Donald Trump said that U.S.-Iran talks will continue to see whether a deal can be consummated, shortly after his closed-door meeting with visiting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Wednesday, reported Xinhua. "I have just finished meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu, of Israel, and various of his Representatives," Trump said in a post on Truth Social. "There was nothing definitive reached other than I insisted that negotiations with Iran continue to see whether or not a Deal can be consummated," Trump said. "If it can, I let the Prime Minister know that will be a preference. If it cannot, we will just have to see what the outcome will be." He added that the two leaders discussed the progress being made in Gaza and the region in general. Netanyahu arrived at the White House in a vehicle via the South Lawn on Wednesday morning and left without a press conference or a statement issued. The meeting, their seventh since the start of Trump's second term, reportedly lasted roughly three hours. Before the meeting, Netanyahu met with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and formally signed up as a member of the "Board of Peace." The initiative is controversial in Israel's parliament, Fox News reported. Ahead of his trip to Washington, Netanyahu told reporters: "I will present to the president our concept regarding the principles of the negotiations (on Iran) -- the essential principles that are important not only to Israel but to anyone who wants peace and security in the Middle East." Netanyahu's office has said that the prime minister wants the talks to include limits on Iran's ballistic missile program and cut Iran's ties with militant groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah. Trump said Tuesday in an interview with Fox Business Network that "it's got to be a good deal. No nuclear weapons, no missiles." Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said at celebrations in Tehran for the 47th anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution on Wednesday that a "wall of distrust" created by the West is hindering nuclear talks with the United States, vowing that Iran will never surrender to excessive demands and aggression. Also on Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi told Russia Today that he believes Iran and the United States can strike a nuclear deal better than the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action signed in July 2015, while reiterating that Iran will not negotiate on its missile program or regional alliances. Washington and Tehran held their indirect talks on Friday in the Omani capital of Muscat amid simmering tensions between the two sides and a U.S. military buildup near Iran. On Tuesday, Trump said he is considering sending a second aircraft carrier strike group to the Middle East for possible military actions against Iran if negotiations fail.

Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store and Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide received Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Oslo on Wednesday, reaffirming the country's support for a genuine two-state solution, reported Xinhua. In a statement issued by the Norwegian government, Store said he was "deeply concerned" about developments in Palestine. While the second phase of a peace plan is now supposed to be underway, the statement noted that the situation in Gaza remains extremely severe for around two million residents, with insufficient goods and emergency aid entering the territory and about 80 percent of buildings destroyed or left in ruins. Store said Norway expects an end to hostilities and occupation and a lasting political solution in which Palestine and Israel can live side by side in peace and security, adding that a genuine two-state solution is important for regional stability in the Middle East and for Europe's security. The statement also described the situation in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, as serious, citing settler violence, settlement expansion, Israeli military operations, home demolitions, and extensive movement restrictions. Eide said Norway, together with like-minded countries, will continue to work for a two-state solution and counter forces pushing developments in a negative direction. According to the statement, this was Abbas's first visit to the Nordic country since Norway officially recognized Palestine as a state in May 2024. In 2025, Norway provided 2.1 billion Norwegian kroner (221 million U.S. dollars) in support of Palestine.

At least 10 people, including the suspected gunman, were killed in a shooting at a school in Western Canada on Tuesday, reported Xinhua, quoting local police. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said multiple others injured in the shooting were receiving medical treatment. Six people were found dead inside a local high school in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia province, another victim died while being transported to the hospital, and two additional bodies were discovered at a nearby residence believed to be connected to the case, according to the police. The RCMP said that the shooter was found dead inside the school from a "self-inflicted injury." Two others with life-threatening injuries were airlifted to a hospital, while 25 more individuals are being assessed for injuries at a local medical center, said the police. Nearby Tumbler Ridge Elementary School was briefly placed under lockdown, but police have since allowed students to be released to their parents. Investigations were underway to determine the motive behind the shooting. Meanwhile, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney on Wednesday ordered all flags on Parliament Hill and federal buildings across Canada to be flown at half-mast for seven days as the country mourns the victims of a mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia province. Carney told reporters on Parliament Hill that it was a "very difficult day for the nation." Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree is currently en route to the northeastern British Columbia town to coordinate federal assistance, Carney said, adding that "all assistance will be offered." The prime minister also noted that he has received expressions of "solidarity and compassion" from world leaders. Carney cancelled his scheduled events for Wednesday to address the tragedy. The prime minister and members of parliament are expected to make a statement in the House of Commons on Wednesday afternoon before adjourning for the day.
