Mar 12 2025

The cyclone had prompted local authorities to issue health and safety warnings, with Alfred being the sixth severe tropical cyclone within 2024/25.

The erosion cliffs, known as ‘scarps’, climbed to a height of 3 metres, exposing the last line of coastal defence – ‘a buried seawall known as the A-line, constructed after large storms in the 1970s’ (as per The Guardian).

Thankfully most of the sand is expected to return naturally, but this may take months to full take place.

Maltese Leaders Welcome Ukraine Ceasefire Agreement

Mar 12 2025

Maltese political leaders took to social media to welcome the 30 day ceasefire agreement proposed by the US and accepted by Ukraine.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated he would present the proposal to Russia, emphasising that the decision now lay with Moscow, which has yet to respond publicly.

European Parliament President Roberta Metsola said that this is an important step towards peace.

‘The ball is in Russia’s court’, she continued. ‘Europe will continue to do its part so that this war ends and leads to real, just and lasting peace.’

On his part, Prime Minister Robert Abela said that he is convinced that peace is achieved through diplomacy. ‘This is Malta’s position, a strong advocate for peace. We hope for a permanent ceasefire’.

Following the 🇺🇸 proposal for a 30-day ceasfire which 🇺🇦 seems in agreement with. I am convinced, have always been, that peace is achieved through diplomacy, not through the barrel of a gun. This is 🇲🇹’s position, a strong advocate for peace. We hope for a permanent ceasefire.-RA

Opposition leader Bernard Grech also welcomed the agreement. ‘It is now up to Russia to do its part and bring an end to this war, ensuring lasting piece.’

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky described the ceasefire proposal as a “positive” step and urged the US to persuade Russia to agree.

The discussions in Jeddah marked the first formal meeting between Ukraine and the US since the heated confrontation between Zelensky and US President Donald Trump in Washington on 28 February.

I welcome the agreement reached today in Saudi Arabia between the United States and Ukraine for a ceasefire and hope that this will lead to restoring peace.

It is now up to Russia to do its part and bring an end to this war, ensuring lasting peace.

Serving Can’t? Short Clips Malta Chips In On Eurovision Dilemma

Mar 12 2025

A video shared to TikTok by ‘Short Clips Malta’ took a linguist explaining how, in British, some sounds are removed in certain words.

When it comes to the word ‘can’t’, the ’t’ sound is sometimes removed, ending up with a word that sounds a lot more like the Maltese ‘Kant’ – you know, the title of Miriana Conte’s Eurovision song.

‘So what’s the problem with the song word ‘Serving Kant?’

‘Shall we do it ‘Serving Can’t’ instead, the creator asked.

Yesterday, Tuesday 11th March, marked the deadline for all countries to submit their Eurovision entry songs in their final form ahead of the contest in Basel.

It is as of yet unknown what Miriana and her team will be doing about the ban – whether they’d be changing the word entirely, proceeding with legal action, or both.

We’ll have to wait and see!
