Germany won’t send troops to Ukraine without U.S involvement, AFP reports, citing a government source. The decision follows US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s refusal to deploy American troops as part of security guarantees to Kiev. Meanwhile, Poland has also dismissed the idea of sending its soldiers. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, however, signaled willingness to contribute troops post-ceasefire. Moscow warns that any unauthorized foreign military presence will be treated as a “legitimate target,” while US-Russia talks on Ukraine continue in Riyadh.

The US Army has implemented an immediate ban on transgender recruits and halted all gender transition-related procedures for service members. This follows President Donald Trump’s executive order mandating adherence to biological Sex in the military. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has also eliminated DEI programs, emphasizing unity over diversity. The move reverses Biden’s 2021 repeal of Trump’s earlier ban. Advocacy groups estimate 15,000 transgender individuals serve in the military, though official reports suggest the number is much lower. Trump has also ended federal support for gender transition procedures for minors

NATO Membership for Ukraine Not Possible: U.S. President Donald Trump has ruled out NATO membership for Ukraine as part of a potential peace deal with Russia, catching Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky off-guard. Speaking after a high-level call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump signaled that Kiev must accept a negotiated settlement, which could involve international peacekeeping forces but not NATO inclusion. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reinforced this stance, calling Ukraine’s aim to reclaim all lost territories “unrealistic.” The move has sparked concern in Kiev and among European allies, as Trump pushes for a swift resolution to the conflict.
