PM Modi holds delegation-level talks with European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen in Delhi
Friday, 28 February 2025 Prime Minister Narendra Modi met European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Delhi to discuss enhancing their strategic partnership. Von der Leyen, leading the EU College of Commissioners, has emphasised the importance of India as a trusted friend and ally, aiming to deepen bilateral ties.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has delivered a bold statement: “The West as we knew it no longer exists.” In a powerful new interview, she blames President Trump’s aggressive tariffs—20% on EU goods and 25% on cars—for collapsing the once-strong transatlantic alliance. As EU-U.S. trade tensions grow, the EU is pivoting toward new global partners. Von der Leyen says 87% of the world’s trade now happens outside the U.S., marking a clear shift in economic power. Is the era of a united West truly over?

President Donald Trump has rejected the European Union’s "zero-for-zero" tariff proposal for industrial goods, calling it "very, very bad." Trump argued that the EU restricts U.S. cars and agriculture, and retaliated by imposing a 20% tariff on European exports. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned of countermeasures if talks collapse. As tensions escalate, EU stock markets tumbled, with Germany’s DAX and the UK’s FTSE 100 suffering heavy losses. The standoff risks disrupting transatlantic trade worth over €1 trillion annually, threatening global economic stability.

After meetings in D.C., JD Vance joined Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni for an Easter lunch in Rome. Meloni, who praised her "fantastic" White House meeting, reaffirmed her support for Trump’s stance against "woke ideology." Trump, who has been critical of the EU, made an exception for Meloni, his only invited EU leader in January. Meloni is pushing for U.S. tariffs on the EU to be reduced, promising increased gas purchases and Italian investments in the U.S. Trump accepted her invitation to meet European leaders in Rome, but no date has been set.

In a dramatic move to end two years of bloodshed, U.S. officials shared a proposed ceasefire plan during closed-door talks in Paris. The deal would freeze the Russia-Ukraine war in place, allowing Moscow to keep occupied territories—for now. Ukraine’s NATO aspirations would be paused, and sanctions on Russia could be gradually lifted if peace holds. In return, Russia must end all military operations. The U.S. plan includes peacekeeping forces, ceasefire monitors, and postwar security guarantees for Ukraine. But critics say the cost of peace may be territorial compromise.

Former FAA contractor Abouzar Rahmati has pleaded guilty to secretly working as an Iranian intelligence asset for years. From 2017 to 2024, Rahmati used his access to steal over 172GB of classified FAA and energy data, including radar, air traffic, and airport security systems. He met Iranian agents, used coded messages, and hid behind academic covers to pass along critical files. Authorities say he personally delivered data to Tehran in 2022. Rahmati now faces up to 15 years in prison for this high-stakes breach of national security.
