Top EU officials visiting Ukraine promise more sanctions against Russia
Kaja Kallas and two other senior EU officials made a surprise visit to Kyiv on Sunday for talks with President Zelenskyy on how to scale up the bloc's support.
US President Donald Trump has described Russian President Vladimir Putin as “a professional” who has effectively handled Western sanctions amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict. The remarks followed a one-hour phone call between the two leaders where Trump pressed Putin on ending the war. While acknowledging Moscow’s resilience, Trump hinted that tougher sanctions may be on the way if the conflict continues.
The Kremlin reaffirmed its stance, insisting it would not back down from core goals. Meanwhile, a bipartisan bill in the US Senate proposes a staggering 500% tariff on imports from nations buying Russian energy, escalating the economic pressure. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed the bill’s backer, Senator Lindsey Graham, as a “Russophobe,” while reiterating Russia’s view that sanctions are illegal and counterproductive. Despite mounting restrictions since 2014, Russia claims its economy has adjusted and domestic industries have strengthened. The geopolitical standoff shows no signs of cooling.

Deadly Ukrainian strikes have rocked Russia’s Borisoglebsk airfield, where fighter jets were stationed for frontline operations. At least 10 massive blasts tore through the facility, igniting fuel depots and damaging aircraft shelters. Local officials scrambled to contain the fires as Kyiv hailed the attack as retaliation for recent missile barrages. Russian media reported panic among personnel and heavy losses on the ground.

President Donald Trump slammed Vladimir Putin following one of the deadliest Russian attacks on Ukraine in weeks. In a fiery statement, Trump accused Putin of wanting to "keep killing" after missiles and drones rained down on Kyiv, damaging homes across the city. After a tense, unproductive call with Putin, Trump hinted at fresh sanctions against Russia, warning that “he understands what’s coming.” The massive strikes on 13 sites sparked global outrage as diplomacy between the U.S. and Russia faltered again.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and French President Emmanuel Macron held a crucial call—their first since 2022—focusing on Iran’s nuclear program under the NPT. As US-Israeli strikes escalate tensions, Macron urged Putin to ensure Iran complies with international norms. Putin reaffirmed Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear energy but demanded strict NPT compliance. The leaders agreed that diplomacy—not military action—is key to avoiding conflict. Macron also admitted no progress on Ukraine peace. The call marks a shift in France’s tone toward diplomacy with Russia.

Trump has stunned observers by privately telling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that he wants to help Ukraine, despite recently pushing for the U.S. to freeze critical weapons deliveries. The contradictory moves have fueled speculation that Trump is leveraging military aid to gain influence over both Kyiv and Moscow ahead of the U.S. election. While Trump publicly blames Zelensky for prolonging the war, sources say he has quietly assured the Ukrainian leader of potential support if certain “conditions” are met.

US President Donald Trump denies reports that military aid to Ukraine has completely stopped but signals a major shift in US policy prioritizing America’s own defense stockpiles. As critical weapons deliveries face delays, Ukraine’s Zelensky struggles with escalating battlefield losses. This shift raises serious questions about the future of Western support in the ongoing conflict and what it means for Ukraine’s fight against Russian aggression.

Iran has firmly rejected the European Union’s renewed call for nuclear talks, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi slamming the West’s stance as “hypocritical” and “legally baseless.” Araghchi accused EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas of disregarding international law and supporting Israeli aggression in the region. Citing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and UNSC Resolution 2231, Tehran insists it has the right to develop nuclear technology for peaceful purposes. Araghchi further declared the EU and UK irrelevant in future negotiations and warned that Western pressure will only deepen mistrust. As tensions rise and the JCPOA framework continues to unravel, is the door to diplomacy closing for good?

Tensions escalated in the South China Sea after China warned the European Union to stop “provoking trouble” and stay out of its territorial disputes with the Philippines. The sharp rebuke followed EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas' visit to Manila, where she voiced concern over China's assertive actions. Beijing insisted the EU has no legal or diplomatic role in the matter, cautioning Manila not to rely on outside powers for resolution. The statement underscores China's hardened stance as geopolitical fault lines deepen in the contested maritime zone.
