Government: No one should be putting pressure on Ukraine
Defence minister Alistair Carns says only the Ukrainians should decide when “they want to move towards peace” and “no one should be putting pressure on them to do so”.
This comes after US president-elect Donald Trump’s son Donald Jr seemingly taunted President Zelenskyy with a social media post saying “you're 38 days from losing your allowance".

In a dramatic claim, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) has suggested that the United States is considering a major political shift in Ukraine, potentially orchestrating elections in 2025 to replace President Volodymyr Zelensky. According to the SVR, the U.S. views Zelensky as "overly entitled" and may initiate both presidential and parliamentary elections to remove him from power, despite the ongoing war with Russia. The U.S. is reportedly already working with NGOs to rally public support for the elections and possibly establish a new pro-American political party. This push for elections, which would take place under martial law, raises questions about Ukraine's sovereignty and the extent of U.S. influence over its future. With Zelensky’s government facing mounting internal and external pressures, the stakes for Ukraine's leadership and its relationship with the West are higher than ever.

The Kremlin has strongly refuted recent claims suggesting that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin had spoken in recent days, calling the reports "pure fiction." Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov dismissed the allegations, which had been reported by The Washington Post and Reuters, labelling them as a "complete lie." According to these reports, Trump had supposedly urged Putin not to escalate the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Peskov mocked the rumours, describing the information as "false" and criticised the quality of such reports being published by reputable outlets. He further stated that, as of now, there were no concrete plans for Putin to engage in talks with Trump, despite earlier reports hinting at potential discussions between the two leaders.

Donald Trump Jr. decided to celebrate his dad's presidential reelection victory with a joke about domestic violence ... and it certainly got a lot of reaction... TMZ.com
In a stunning turn of events, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s latest plea for advanced missile systems was rejected by the Pentagon, leaving Kiev empty-handed in its bid to counter Russia's ongoing military offensive. Despite Zelensky’s urgent request for long-range missiles to boost Ukraine's defenses, U.S. defense officials have opted to prioritize established international buyers over Ukraine, signaling a potential shift in Washington's support strategy. The denial comes as a major blow to Zelensky, who had banked on securing vital military aid to bolster his nation’s resistance against Russia. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has seized the moment to mock Zelensky’s failed attempt, casting doubt on Ukraine’s future prospects in the conflict and sending ripples across the geopolitical landscape.
