In this video, we explore the growing tensions between the U.S. and Russia over nuclear policies. During his presidency, Donald Trump took a radical stance against the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), fueling global fears of a return to nuclear testing. As the possibility of an arms race looms, Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stern warning, threatening retaliation. In 2024, Cold War-era tensions are reemerging, raising concerns about the future of arms control and international security.

In a bold move, Keith Kellogg, an incoming aide to President Donald Trump, has revealed an ambitious plan to end the Russia-Ukraine war within 100 days of Trump's inauguration. Kellogg emphasized Trump's goal of restarting direct negotiations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. While Trump has vowed to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty, he aims to mediate a resolution that could involve freezing current frontlines as part of the peace negotiations. The plan seeks to resolve the long-running conflict swiftly, but questions remain: Will both Putin and Zelensky accept Trump's terms for peace?

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may press criminal charges against former military chief Valery Zaluzhny if he challenges him for the presidency in the upcoming election. Despite the ongoing conflict with Russia, Zelensky plans to run for re-election, capitalizing on his current 52% approval rating. Zaluzhny, currently Ukraine's ambassador to the UK and considered Zelensky's main rival, has not revealed any political ambitions. However, sources suggest Zelensky’s administration has offered Zaluzhny a prominent role in his party if he refrains from running. If Zaluzhny enters the race, he could face investigations, including one related to the fall of Kherson to Russian forces in 2022.

Donald Trump has sharply criticized President Joe Biden for mishandling tensions between Russia, Ukraine, and NATO, accusing the U.S. leader of sparking the ongoing war in Ukraine. Trump argued that Biden's push for Ukraine to join NATO, despite Russia's long standing opposition, was a key trigger for the conflict. He claimed that Washington violated a prior understanding with Russia regarding NATO's expansion limits, setting the stage for what he described as a "disaster" that could have been avoided. Trump further warned that the conflict could escalate and worsen, and expressed regret that preventing the war in 2022 would have been easier than resolving it now. He also reiterated his belief that he could broker a resolution, albeit acknowledging the complexity of the situation.

A Russian Lancet drone has reportedly destroyed a US-made HIMARS multiple-launch rocket system in Ukraine's Zaporozhye Region, signalling a potential blow to Ukraine's military capabilities. The strike, captured in an undated video released by the pro-Moscow Telegram channel 'The Wrong Side,' shows the HIMARS launcher being hit while on the move as part of a convoy near Novosoloshino. Although the system caught fire after the attack, it did not explode, as it was reportedly unloaded at the time. This incident highlights the growing challenges facing Ukraine’s defences amidst escalating Russian drone attacks and heavy losses on the frontlines. Russian forces have claimed significant destruction of Ukrainian military assets, including armoured personnel carriers, artillery systems, and ammunition depots. With casualties mounting and critical systems being targeted, Ukraine's defences appear increasingly strained.
