European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reminded Donald Trump that the EU remains open for a trade deal—but the U.S. President made it clear: China and India come first. Speaking after sealing deals with Beijing and hinting at a "very big" one with India, Trump gave no indication of engaging with Europe anytime soon. The EU, once a top U.S. economic partner, is now seemingly sidelined as Washington pivots eastward. The diplomatic slight leaves Brussels waiting in line—behind two of the world’s biggest emerging powerhouses.

Former Russian Transport Minister Roman Starovoit was found dead in Moscow just hours after being sacked by President Vladimir Putin. Authorities say the 51-year-old died of a gunshot wound in his car, with suicide suspected. Starovoit’s abrupt dismissal follows mounting pressure over corruption probes and border failures in Kursk during his earlier governorship. Kremlin critics question whether political purging played a role. His death adds to the growing list of mysterious ends among Putin’s inner circle.

The Indo-Russian joint venture to manufacture Kamov helicopters in India is facing significant delays due to the Ukraine war, Western sanctions, and supply chain.. IndiaTimes
Panic and paralysis gripped St. Petersburg’s Pulkovo Airport as a massive drone threat grounded flights and triggered Russia’s largest aviation disruption this year. Over 7,000 passengers were stranded after Moscow shut down the skies over northern Russia in response to what officials described as a coordinated Ukrainian drone assault.
The result: more than 100 delayed flights, 30 canceled, and a bizarre traffic jam of planes unable to take off or land. Social media was flooded with footage showing anxious travelers, packed terminals, and idle aircraft lining the tarmac. The Kremlin has not confirmed whether any drones were intercepted or hit specific targets, but the lockdown has added pressure on Russia’s internal defense systems. The incident raises serious questions about the vulnerability of key infrastructure even far from the front lines, and could mark a turning point in Ukraine’s drone warfare strategy deep into Russian airspace.

In a fiery press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shut down claims about a shift in U.S. weapons supply to Ukraine, calling it “fake news.” Leavitt clarified that a recent Pentagon assessment was a routine global audit of U.S. military aid, not a pullback. “This was standard policy — not specific to Ukraine,” she said. Leavitt then turned to the Middle East, stating the Trump administration’s top priority is ending the Gaza war and securing the release of hostages. She confirmed that Israel had approved a ceasefire deal, which has now been sent to Hamas for approval. The press secretary expressed hope that Hamas would agree to the proposal, indicating that the U.S. is pressing for diplomatic resolution in the region. The dual clarification on Ukraine and Gaza reveals the administration’s efforts to quell disinformation and manage multiple crises on the global stage.

France issued red alerts in several regions, and Spain is battling wildfires with fatalities reported. The U.K. logged its second-warmest June since 1884.
