The US has deployed the newly modernized B61-12 thermonuclear bombs across Europe under NATO’s nuclear-sharing program. These advanced weapons, part of the B61-12 Life Extension Program, bolster NATO’s deterrence capabilities amid rising tensions with Russia.

A Danish F-16 instructor, Jepp Hansen, has been killed in a Russian missile strike targeting a Ukrainian training center in Krivoy Rog. This marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict as NATO support for Ukraine continues to intensify. With Russia condemning Western arms shipments and attacking vital military infrastructure, the question remains: will NATO continue its backing, or will this deadly strike change the course of the war?

In a historic move, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a comprehensive cooperation pact in Moscow, solidifying the partnership between two of the world's most heavily sanctioned nations. The treaty aims to enhance military, political, and trade-economic ties, with a focus on regional security, energy collaboration, and the peaceful use of nuclear technology. Both countries seek to counter external interference, especially from the U.S. and NATO, while working on joint projects in sectors like gold and diamond mining, oil, gas, and infrastructure development. The agreement comes just days before Donald Trump's return to power, raising questions about the future of US-Iran relations.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky rejected Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's proposal to mediate Ukraine-Russia peace talks, preferring direct discussions with key leaders, including U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. Orban suggested a Christmas ceasefire and prisoner exchange, but Zelensky dismissed his ability to influence Russian President Vladimir Putin, labeling the proposal as self-serving. Meanwhile, Trump vowed to resolve the conflict swiftly, while Russia maintained its stance that Ukraine must recognize territorial changes before talks.

In a surprising turn, former U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly considering a peace plan for Ukraine, which could reshape the current trajectory of the conflict. The plan, proposed by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, suggests a potential Christmas ceasefire and a large-scale prisoner swap between Russia and Ukraine. This plan has already garnered attention, with talks between Trump and Orbán taking place behind closed doors. The proposal comes amid increasing international tensions and calls for diplomatic solutions. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed skepticism, rejecting the plan as a move that undermines EU unity. Could this Christmas ceasefire be the breakthrough that ends the Ukraine war, or is it just another fleeting diplomatic effort?

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has launched a scathing critique of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for rejecting a proposed Christmas ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. Labeling Zelenskyy’s decision as a path to a "blood-filled Christmas," Orban accused Ukraine of turning down a genuine effort for peace.
The controversy erupted after Orban revealed on X (formerly Twitter) that Hungary, during its EU presidency, proposed a ceasefire and a large-scale prisoner exchange, only to be met with outright rejection by Kyiv. Zelenskyy, in response, mocked Orban, accusing him of leveraging the peace initiative to bolster his personal image and dismissed the proposal as disingenuous.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban initiated a crucial phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss the ongoing Ukraine war. This diplomatic exchange comes just days after Orban's meeting with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, who has expressed his intention to broker a peace deal swiftly once in office. Orban, known for his close ties with both Trump and Putin, is seeking to navigate Europe through what he calls the "most dangerous days" of the conflict. Despite facing internal and EU opposition, Orban has remained a staunch advocate for peace talks and has refrained from sending military aid to Ukraine. The call with Putin is part of his broader strategy to find a diplomatic solution to the war, while also discussing energy projects and Hungary's continued dependence on Russian energy despite European sanctions.
