Pavlo Sadokha died, leader of Ukrainians in Portugal

Observador14 September 2026 at 23:19

Pavlo Sadokha died, leader of Ukrainians in Portugal, at the age of 56. Considered by many as "the true heart and voice of the Ukrainian community in Portugal," Sadokha leaves behind a legacy marked by tireless work in defense and support of Ukraine.

Throughout his life, he dedicated himself entirely to the Ukrainian cause, working without days off or vacations in the fight for his country. His dedication to the community made him a central figure for Ukrainians living in Portugal.

The news of his death generated shock among the Ukrainian community in Portugal, which thus loses one of its main references and voices of representation.

Why this matters

Sadokha's death represents a significant loss for the growing Ukrainian community in Portugal, which saw a drastic increase in refugees since 2022. Readers who are part of this community or interact with it now face the need to find new leadership and representation, while continuing to need support in integration and the fight for the Ukrainian cause.

Africa is not Las Vegas: the "new" jihadism

The article analyses the growing jihadist threat in Africa, arguing that the continent is becoming a new stronghold of Islamic extremism, similar to what Afghanistan once was. The author suggests that September 11 was partly the result of a failure of imagination by Western intelligence services, which could not conceive that a group so far away could carry out an operation of such magnitude. Now, Africa presents similar dynamics, with groups such as Boko Haram and other movements affiliated with Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State exploiting state fragility, poverty and local conflicts to expand, demanding an urgent reassessment of global security priorities.

BRICS and the new global order

The 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi demonstrated that the group has evolved from an economic acronym to a negotiation platform for the world order. The approved Declaration advocated for reform of the UN Security Council and international financial institutions, and condemned protectionism. In the economic field, the trend is towards reducing dependence on the dollar through national currencies, in a pragmatic and non-revolutionary process. Technological cooperation in artificial intelligence and digital economy also marked the agenda. Despite internal divergences between India and China, and conflicts involving Russia and Iran, the group reached consensus on the Middle East, food and climate security. The article concludes that Europe should recognize the BRICS as an actor of multipolarity, especially in a context where traditional allies like the US seem to disrupt European balances.
