NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has sharply criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for his recent remarks against German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

The tension arose after Zelensky publicly condemned Scholz for his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his refusal to supply Ukraine with advanced weaponry, such as Taurus cruise missiles. Rutte's statement reflects growing concern over the impact of internal disagreements on European unity and NATO’s collective strategy.

BIG BREAKING: Syria Has Fallen, Assad Flees | Handover Of Power To Rebels Any Moment

In a dramatic turn of events, Syrian Prime Minister Mohammed Ghazi Jalali declared on Sunday that the government is prepared to "extend its hand" to the opposition and facilitate a peaceful transfer of power to a transitional government. This announcement comes as rebel forces claim to have fully entered Damascus and seized key locations, including the notorious Saydnaya Military Prison. With intense clashes reported in the capital, the opposition has declared the city "free" from Bashar al-Assad, amid widespread speculation that the Syrian president has fled the country, possibly seeking refuge in the UAE. Jalali, however, remains in the capital, continuing his duties while urging citizens to avoid vandalizing public property. The developments suggest a significant shift in Syria’s 13-year civil war, with the future of Assad’s regime hanging in the balance. #Syria #DamascusFalls #AssadFlees #SyriaRebels #SyrianPM #PowerTransfer #SyriaTransition #SyrianCivilWar #FreeDamascus #SaydnayaPrison #AssadRegimeEnd #SyriaRevolution #SyrianOpposition #AssadOut #NewSyria Also Read Syrian President Assad Flees Damascus As Rebel Forces Seize Capital, Marks Collapse Of Regime Stronghold :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrian-president-assad-flees-damascus-as-rebel-forces-seize-capital-marks-collapse-of-regime-strong-4009445.html Opposition Fighters Approach Damascus: Understanding the Current Crisis in Syria's Civil War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/opposition-fighters-close-in-on-damascus-capital-011-4009409.html Syrian Rebels Push For Homs, Edge Closer To Damascus As Assad's Grip Weakens :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrian-rebels-push-for-homs-edge-closer-to-damascus-as-assads-grip-weakens-011-4009345.html
