Potential Hosts for MLS Cup 2025 Final

The host for MLS Cup 2025 will be the highest-ranked remaining team in the Supporters’ Shield standings, with Philadelphia Union currently leading, and the final is scheduled for December 6. The hosting rules depend on the regular-season points, with the top team hosting unless both finalists have equal points, in which case wins or goal difference determine the host. Several teams are in contention, but some Western Conference teams cannot host due to their points totals.

Russia's Obstruction Paves the Way for Azerbaijan to Host COP29 Climate Talks

Russia has been blocking potential host candidates for next year's United Nations climate summit, known as COP28, due to tensions over its war in Ukraine. Under U.N. rules, the host is chosen by consensus among countries in the designated region, but Russia has effectively held the event hostage by blocking nearly every viable candidate in Eastern Europe or the Caucasus. This impasse raises concerns about global consensus on tackling climate change, as nations struggle to find a location for the summit. If no agreement is reached, Germany or the United Arab Emirates may default as the host for COP28.
