Our thoughts and prayers are with our brothren in Mozambique as they face the painful effects of the ongoing floods. We mourn with those who have suffered loss and stand in solidarity with all who are affected. May strength, hope, and comfort prevail during this difficult time.


Withdrawing the United States from International Organizations, Conventions, and Treaties that Are Contrary to the Interests of the United States – where "For UN entities, withdrawal means ceasing participation in or funding to those entities.."

The Malawi Government has revised its visa regime effective 3 January, 2025. Under the new regime, countries within the same regional blocs with Malawi and those that do not subject Malawians to visa requirements have been exempted. facebook.com/share/p/1CBkHX…

Government has updated Malawi’s visa regulations, expanding the list of countries whose nationals can enter the country without a visa while retaining reciprocity conditions tied to how Malawians are treated abroad.

The election of the mayor of New York in USA is local politics. Therefore highly unlikely to attract the attention of international relations practitioners. But the mayor-desginate's victory speaks to something unavoidable to observe: supremacy of the "anti-establishment".

The Diplomat season 3

President Vladimir Putin said Russia had successfully tested a Poseidon nuclear-powered super torpedo that military analysts say is capable of devastating coastal regions by triggering vast radioactive ocean swells reut.rs/3X2C2ag



The practice in diplomacy is for Government Ministers to sign binding bilateral and multilateral agreement on behalf of their countries. It is a rarity, but not unknown, for Heads of Government to do so. I made above observation of US-Australia summitry. Reoccured. New norm?

US President Donald Trump and Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi sign a critical minerals and rare earths agreement in Tokyo, bolstering economic and defense ties reut.rs/47eNPZ2



Critical minerals is the new key factor in economic diplomacy. Its an area that Malawi has relative advantage.


Any talk, or even a whiff, of this in a developing country would be treated with a human rights and governance uproar!

There is speculation that President Donald Trump will seek a third term in the White House. newsweek.com/donald-trump-v…



One of the traditions I admire a lot about the military is that the outgoing Commander (then) now Chief of Defence Force (CDF), is always given the official send-off. Its a tradition, that sets the Military apart. I suppose once a General always a General!

Outgoing Malawi Defence Force (MDF) Chief of Defence, General Paul Valentino Phiri, is today handing over the sword of command to his successor, General George Alexander Jaffu.

When a Head of State undertakes official visits into another country, the occasion requires meticulous planning, serious adherence to protocols but above all excellent hosting. A Visit to a country's diplomatic post by the receiving country's President is no less stringent!
