Scholz: Wagner troops in Belarus 'a situation we are observing with great concern'
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Wednesday Russian President Vladimir Putin had been "weakened" by the Wagner mercenary group's mutiny, but that the ultimate consequences of the rebellion remained unclear.
Friedrich Merz is set to become Germany’s new chancellor after his CDU/CSU bloc secured 28.5% votes, defeating Olaf Scholz’s SPD. Merz, a longtime conservative leader, vows to revive Germany’s economy and impose stricter immigration policies. His political career saw setbacks under Angela Merkel, but he staged a strong comeback in 2022. With AfD securing 20.7% votes, coalition talks are crucial. Born in 1955, Merz has a legal background and extensive experience in finance. His next challenge? Forming a stable government to lead Germany through economic and political challenges.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has conceded defeat as the CDU/CSU secures victory in Germanys national election.

Poland has urged its citizens to prepare for a potential war or crisis by stockpiling at least three days’ worth of essential supplies, including food, water, medicine, and power banks. This warning follows escalating tensions in Europe, as the European Commission pushes for an €800 billion military buildup amid concerns over Russia. Meanwhile, Poland has also announced plans to mine its borders with Belarus and Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave. As fears of a major conflict grow, Moscow has dismissed Western claims of an impending Russian attack as “complete nonsense.”

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s envoy Kirill Dmitriev claims “significant progress” in achieving a ceasefire in Ukraine following a US-brokered energy truce. Speaking in Washington, Dmitriev credited Trump’s role in leading talks that halted strikes on energy infrastructure. The truce, however, remains fragile as both Russia and Ukraine trade blame for violations. Despite challenges, the energy ceasefire is viewed as a crucial first step toward broader de-escalation. Dmitriev also indicated signs of warming US-Russia relations, noting positive developments during his recent meetings with US counterparts.

Kirill Dmitriev, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s envoy, has claimed that third-party nations and politicians are actively trying to sabotage US-Russia relations. Following a rare three-day visit to Washington, Dmitriev accused foreign actors of spreading disinformation and launching coordinated media campaigns to prevent any diplomatic progress. He emphasized the need for direct dialogue and revealed discussions with US officials on Arctic cooperation, rare-earth minerals, and restoring flights. Despite skepticism from EU and Ukrainian leaders, Russia insists on continuing efforts to rebuild ties severed under the Biden administration.

President Trump’s advisers are pushing back against a new call with Vladimir Putin unless Russia agrees to a full Ukraine ceasefire. Trump insists a truce is close, citing readiness from both sides to negotiate. However, Putin seeks U.S. monitoring guarantees and Ukrainian de-escalation. Meanwhile, Moscow warns of misinformation surrounding contact plans. Diplomatic progress appears slow but ongoing, especially after a Kremlin adviser’s recent visit to Washington. A third Trump-Putin call is anticipated, but internal U.S. dissent could delay engagement.

Ukraine peace deal negotiations remain uncertain as Trump pushes for a ceasefire between Putin and Zelensky.
