Zelensky Calls on Trump to Visit Ukraine | Urges Trump Visit Before Accepting Peace Deal with Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has invited former President Donald Trump to visit Ukraine, urging him to witness the destruction caused by Russia’s ongoing invasion. Zelensky wants Trump to meet the people and see the damage firsthand before any peace deal with Russia. The invitation comes amid escalating violence, including a deadly missile strike in Sumy that killed 35 people and injured 117. While the U.S. has worked toward peace talks, Zelensky remains skeptical of Russia's intentions. The situation continues to raise global concerns over the war’s toll. #Zelensky #Trump #Ukraine #Russia #WarInUkraine #PeaceTalks #MissileStrike #SumyAttack #USForeignPolicy #RussianWarCrime #WarDevastation #UkraineCrisis #UkrainianPeople #TrumpVisit #WarWitness #GlobalPolitics #EuropeanLeaders #RussiaInvasion #MilitaryConflict #RussianTerror #InternationalDiplomacy #UkraineWar #USAndUkraine #RussiaMissileStrike #TrumpResponse #EUCondemnation #WarVictims #PoliticalInvitation #PeaceNegotiations #USUkraineRelations #TrumpInUkraine Also Read Trump Administration Freezes USD 2.2 Billion In Grants To Harvard University :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-freezes-usd-2-2-billion-in-grants-to-harvard-university-4124075.html?ref=DMDesc US Teen Nikita Casap Accused Of Killing Parents To Fund Plot To Assassinate Donald Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-teen-nikita-casap-accused-of-killing-parents-to-fund-plot-to-assassinate-donald-trump-4123199.html?ref=DMDesc US President Trump Is Now A Comic Book Villain In Canada, Elon Musk Is His Sidekick :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-is-now-a-comic-book-villain-in-canada-elon-musk-is-his-sidekick-4120951.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.122~HT.318~

U.S Trade War: Russia Won’t Beg U.S. to Lift Sanctions as Trade Falls 95% Since Peak Says Lavrov

U.S Trade War: Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov declared that Moscow won’t chase the U.S. for sanctions relief, despite bilateral trade plunging 95% from its peak a decade ago. Speaking to Kommersant, Lavrov criticized U.S. sanctions as destructive to globalization, saying they’ve only backfired on the West. He emphasized Russia’s pivot towards Asia and the Global South, and stressed economic independence. Former President Trump recently extended U.S. sanctions, citing national security concerns, while hinting at potential relief tied to the Black Sea Grain Initiative. #RussiaUSRelations #Lavrov #Sanctions #TradeWar #GlobalEconomy #RussiaSanctions #BidenPolicy #Trump #UkraineWar #ForeignPolicy #Geopolitics #RussiaChina #IndiaTrade #GlobalSouth #EconomicShift #Moscow #USSanctions #Putin #BlackSeaGrainDeal #Eurasia Also Read MEA Engages with US Authorities to Clarify Sanctions on Indian Entities Amid Ongoing Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/in-touch-with-us-authorities-sanctions-indian-entities-011-3976289.html?ref=DMDesc Serbia's President Aleksandar Vucic Thanks Putin for Gas Supplies and Rejects Sanctions Against Russia :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/serbia-president-thanks-putin-gas-supplies-sanctions-011-3965597.html?ref=DMDesc Former Trump Adviser Charged for Work with Sanctioned Russian Network :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-charges-dimitri-simes-for-russian-tv-work-sanctions-011-3926945.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~ED.346~

Trump Calls ‘Tariff’ the Most Beautiful Word, Credits It for NVIDIA’s Big U.S. Investment

At a press conference with El Salvador’s President Bukele, Donald Trump declared “tariff” to be the most beautiful word in the dictionary. He credited tariffs for bringing in billions in investment, highlighting NVIDIA’s major U.S. plans. Trump claimed his trade policies were working, calling them “flexible, not changing.” His comments, full of trademark flair, once again blurred economic policy with off-the-cuff humor and populist rhetoric. #DonaldTrump #TrumpNews #Tariffs #USInvestment #NVIDIA #TrumpSpeech #EconomicPolicy #WhiteHouse #TradeWar #TrumpQuotes #TariffTalk #AmericaFirst #USJobs #InvestmentBoom #TrumpEconomy #TrumpBukele #PressConference #TrumpLive #ElSalvador #TechInvestment #MadeInUSA #USAJobs #ForeignPolicy #GlobalEconomy #USChinaTrade #Semiconductors #TradeTalks #TrumpVsMedia #PresidentialSpeech #ViralTrump #TrumpUpdates #USMexico #USCanada #BusinessNews #TrumpAdministration #NVIDIANews #TrumpMemes #PoliticsToday #TrumpBusiness #AutoTariffs #TrumpTrade ~HT.318~ED.194~GR.122~

Trump’s Explosive Attack on the EU. In a scathing attack on the European Union, former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed that the EU was created to take advantage of the United States. Speaking at his first cabinet meeting since returning to the White House, Trump announced new tariffs, confirming a 25% tax on key European imports, including cars. The U.S.-EU trade deficit reached $235.6 billion last year, fueling Trump's push for aggressive trade measures. The European Union rejected his accusations, calling itself "the world's largest free market" and warning of immediate retaliation if tariffs are imposed. #TrumpVsEU #TradeWar #USTariffs #BreakingNews #DonaldTrump #EUPolitics #EconomicCrisis #TariffBattle #GlobalTrade #USNews #TrumpSpeech #EUTrade #AmericaFirst #Geopolitics #MarketImpact Also Read Donald Trump Administration Slashes 90% Of USAID Foreign Aid Contracts :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-administration-slashes-90-of-usaid-foreign-aid-contracts-4081813.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Says Zelenskyy To Visit White House On Friday, Will Finalise Minerals Deal Amid US-Ukraine Security Talk :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-zelenskyy-to-visit-white-house-on-friday-will-finalise-minerals-deal-amid-us-ukraine-sec-4081663.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Administration Orders Large-Scale Federal Job Cuts In Major Govt Restructuring :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-orders-large-scale-federal-job-cuts-in-major-govt-restructuring-4081639.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.152~GR.124~ED.346~

Trump Shocks Kremlin: Extends Biden's Russia Sanctions, Warns New Punishment if No Ceasefire by...

U.S. President Donald Trump has officially extended sanctions against Russia, originally imposed by former President Joe Biden in April 2021. The decision, announced via the U.S. Federal Register on April 10, reaffirms the national emergency over Russia's cyber operations, election interference, and continued threats to international peace. Despite White House calls for a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, no major new sanctions have been introduced—yet. However, sources suggest that if a ceasefire isn't reached by the end of April, the Trump administration may escalate punitive measures. The Kremlin has denounced the sanctions as politically motivated, while Washington insists Russia’s actions continue to pose a serious national security threat. #Trump #RussiaSanctions #UkraineWar #Biden #Geopolitics #USPolitics #Kremlin #Putin #Zelensky #ForeignPolicy #Ceasefire #NationalSecurity #BreakingNews #WhiteHouse #RussiaUkraineConflict #Sanctions Also Read BJP's Suvendu Adhikari Claims Over 400 Hindus Have Fled Murshidabad; Blames TMC’s 'Appeasement Politics' :: https://www.oneindia.com/kolkata/bjps-suvendu-adhikari-claims-over-400-hindus-have-fled-murshidabad-blames-tmc-s-appeasement-polit-4122745.html?ref=DMDesc Yusuf Pathan Stirs Row With 'Good Chai' Post Amid Bengal Violence, Gives Fresh Ammo To BJP: 'This Is TMC' :: https://www.oneindia.com/kolkata/yusuf-pathan-stirs-row-with-good-chai-post-amid-bengal-violence-gives-fresh-ammo-to-bjp-this-is-4122635.html?ref=DMDesc AAP Accuses Delhi CM Rekha Gupta’s Husband Of Running Govt Behind the Scenes After Pics Go Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/new-delhi/aap-accuses-delhi-cm-rekha-gupta-s-husband-of-running-govt-behind-the-scenes-after-pics-go-viral-4122555.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~HT.336~GR.124~

Trump Calls MEXICO 'Thief': After tariff U.S President Wages New War, SANCTIONS For 'Stealing' Water

Former President Donald Trump is threatening tariffs—and possibly sanctions—against Mexico, accusing the country of “stealing water” from Texas farmers. Citing the 1944 Water Treaty, Trump claims Mexico owes Texas 1.3 million acre-feet of water and is hurting local agriculture. He slammed the Biden administration for inaction and praised Ted Cruz and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins for defending Texas. The standoff escalates amid worsening drought and failing irrigation systems in South Texas. Analysts warn of a disastrous crop season if the water crisis remains unresolved. #Trump #Mexico #WaterCrisis #TexasFarmers #RioGrande #WaterTreaty #Tariffs #Sanctions #USMexicoRelations #DonaldTrump #TedCruz #BrookeRollins #TexasAgriculture #SouthTexas #IrrigationCrisis #FarmersFirst #BorderTensions #TrumpSpeech #DroughtCrisis #1944Treaty #BidenSilent #PoliticalConflict #TariffThreat #MexicoNews #AgricultureCrisis #FarmPolicy #USPolitics #WaterRights #TexasCrops #BreakingNews #TrumpVsMexico Also Read US President Trump Is Now A Comic Book Villain In Canada, Elon Musk Is His Sidekick :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-is-now-a-comic-book-villain-in-canada-elon-musk-is-his-sidekick-4120951.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's Isolate China Strategy Using Treasury Bonds And Sparking Market Turmoil :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trumps-isolate-china-strategy-using-treasury-bonds-and-sparking-market-turmoil-4120223.html?ref=DMDesc India Seeks Swift Trade Deal With US As Trump Pauses Tariffs For Several Nations: Report :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-seeks-swift-trade-deal-with-us-as-trump-pauses-tariffs-for-several-nations-report-4120197.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~GR.121~

Trump Scraps Obama-Biden Era Water Limits, Says ‘I Need to Wash My Beautiful Hair!’

Former President Donald Trump rolled back an Obama-Biden era rule limiting showerheads to 2.5 gallons per minute, calling the regulation “ridiculous.” During his White House tenure, Trump joked about the low water pressure affecting his ability to shower and wash his “beautiful hair.” The move was part of his sweeping deregulation campaign and extended to toilets, dishwashers, and more. Supporters see it as a win for personal freedom, while critics warn it could waste water and raise energy bills. Biden later reinstated the original rule after taking office. #Trump #ShowerheadRule #WaterFlow #Deregulation #TrumpSpeech #EnvironmentalPolicy #EnergyUse #ObamaEra #BathroomPolitics #TrumpAdministration #CleanEnergy #HighFlow #WhiteHouse #EnergyBill #PersonalFreedom #HomeAppliances #TrumpJokes #RegulationRollback #Biden #EcoFriendly #WaterConservation #ClimatePolicy #PublicPolicy #ShowerPressure #TrumpVsBiden #TrumpHair #EnergyDebate #EnvironmentalImpact #HouseholdAppliances #TrumpByte #HotTake Also Read Trump Praises Chinese Counterpart Xi Jinping Amid US-China Tariff Standoff, Calls Him 'Very Smart Man' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-praises-chinese-counterpart-xi-jinping-amid-us-china-tariff-standoff-calls-him-very-smart-ma-4120019.html?ref=DMDesc Asia Shares Jump After US Stocks Soared To Historic Gains When Trump Paused Most Of His Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/asia-shares-jump-after-us-stocks-soared-to-historic-gains-when-trump-paused-most-of-his-tariffs-4119859.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Delays Tariffs for Some, Slaps China Hard: Full List of Countries With Revised Tariff Rates :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-delays-tariffs-for-some-slaps-china-hard-full-list-of-countries-with-revised-tariff-rates-4119833.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~
