Putin UNVEILS Economic Revival For Donbass, Crushes U.S-Backed Peace Hopes With BOLD Plans

Russian President Vladimir Putin has dismissed the possibility of a US-brokered peace deal by announcing sweeping economic plans to rebuild Donbass and other newly integrated territories. In a bold move, Putin accused Kiev of decades of neglect, stating these regions were "abandoned" before Moscow’s intervention. Now under Russian control, he pledged a full-scale economic reboot to “unlock their full potential” and ensure locals see “real improvement.” This strategic pivot not only bolsters Russia’s hold on the contested areas but also signals defiance to Western diplomacy, especially amid growing international pressure. The timing — as Western leaders push for de-escalation — reveals Moscow’s determination to consolidate gains through infrastructure, development, and economic integration. #Putin #Donbass #RussiaUkraineWar #Donetsk #Luhansk #Crimea #RussianEconomy #USPeacePlan #UkraineConflict #KievNeglect #RussianReconstruction #WarAftermath #ProRussia #EconomicReboot #Zelensky #WesternIntervention #MoscowMoves #UkraineWarUpdate #OccupiedTerritories #RussiaNews Also Read John Mahama Sworn in as Ghana's President for Third Time Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mahama-sworn-in-as-ghana-president-third-time-economic-crisis-011-4036405.html?ref=DMDesc Chhattisgarh Leaders Remember Dr Manmohan Singh, A Giant of Economics, After His Passing :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/dr-manmohan-singh-passes-away-chhattisgarh-leaders-tribute-011-4026919.html?ref=DMDesc Manmohan Singh's Brief Pursuit of Medicine Before Embracing Economics, Revealed by Daughter Daman :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/manmohan-singh-pre-medical-course-interest-011-4026803.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

Putin’s Army UNSTOPPABLE In Ukraine? Kyiv’s Defense COLLAPSES After Losing 4,000 Troops In One Week

A day after massive Russian strikes, Moscow now accuses Ukraine of sabotaging its own forces. Russian expert Andrey Marochko claims Kyiv lost nearly 4,000 troops in Lugansk alone within a week, including foreign fighters. Ukraine’s counteroffensives reportedly failed to stop Russian advances in Kharkov, Donetsk, and Lugansk. Russia maintains the initiative, launching precision strikes and accusing Ukraine of wasting troops and equipment. As Ukraine struggles to hold its defensive lines, Russia insists its objectives under the "special military operation" are steadily being fulfilled. #RussiaUkraineWar #RussiaUkraineWarLive #RussiaUkraineNews #UkraineWar #RussianUkraineWar #RussiaVsUkraine #UkraineRussiaConflict #UkraineRussiaWarNews #RussiaUkraineWarToday #RussiaUkraineWarUpdate #RussiaUkraineStream #UkraineWarUpdate #TrumpOnUkraineWar #BidenOnUkraineWar #UkraineCrisis #UkraineUnderAttack #UkraineRussiaTensions #UkraineInvasion Also Read Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~

Zelensky IMPOSES Sanctions On Iran, Aligns With EU To Punish ‘Internal Repression’ And Terror Links

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced Ukraine is now fully aligning with European Union sanctions on Iran. In a dramatic statement, Zelenskyy accused Iran of supporting external terror campaigns, engaging in brutal domestic repression, and forging a dangerous alliance with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The move marks Kyiv’s most aggressive stance against Tehran, extending Ukraine's sanctions policy beyond Russia to its geopolitical backers. Zelenskyy labeled the Iranian government “one of the most brutal regimes in the world” and said Ukraine would contribute to targeting Iranian individuals, companies, and entities involved in both weapons production and regional destabilization. He emphasized the global importance of sanctions against both Russia and its partners. The announcement comes as Iran and Russia deepen defense ties amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict. #Zelensky #UkraineIran #IranSanctions #EUAlignment #PutinIran #RussiaWar #KyivPolitics #IranRegime #SanctionsNow #UkraineNews #Geopolitics #VolodymyrZelensky #IranCrackdown #Tehran #PutinAllies #IranRussiaTies #EUforeignpolicy #UkraineWar #MiddleEastPolitics #IranianSanctions
