White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has denounced recent viral videos depicting US President Joe Biden as confused at public events, labelling them as “cheap fakes.” Her comments follow the spread of several clips on social media, which have ignited debates about the president's mental fitness. In one widely shared video, President Biden appears to struggle with sitting down during a D-Day memorial event in France. Commenters suggested he seemed “completely lost” or experiencing “some kind of episode.” Another clip from a G7 meeting in Italy shows Biden wandering away from the group during a skydiving demonstration, only to be guided back by Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

In a recent statement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected the peace terms proposed by Russian President Vladimir Putin, labeling them as an ultimatum. During a meeting with senior Russian Foreign Ministry officials, Putin demanded that Ukraine cede four regions that voted to join Russia and guarantee it will never join NATO. Zelensky, attending the G7 meeting in Italy, emphasized that these demands are unacceptable and tantamount to surrender. The Kremlin, however, described the offer as a comprehensive and constructive proposal. As the conflict continues, the gap between Moscow's demands and Kiev's position remains wide, with peace still a distant hope.

Ukraine’s top commander, Aleksandr Syrsky, is reportedly ready to lay down arms and capitulate to Russia, according to a claim made by a lawmaker from President Vladimir Zelensky’s party. The claim was made by MP Mariana Bezuglaya from the ‘Servant of the People’ party, who is also the deputy chair of the National Security, Defense, and Intelligence Committee.
Syrsky, who became Ukraine’s highest-ranking general in early February, succeeded Valery Zaluzhny, the former general who oversaw last year’s unsuccessful attempts to repel Russian forces. Bezuglaya accused Syrsky and Zaluzhny of secretly colluding to prevent a Ukrainian victory, stating that the two generals belong to a “generals’ mafia” that is more interested in protecting their own privileges than in defeating Russia.
