The Conservatives have voiced disappointment at the US decision not to support a UN resolution condemning Russia's war against Ukraine – even though it was co-sponsored by the UK.
However, Shadow Environment Secretary Victoria Atkins says it is still important to support President Trump in his wish to bring about a peaceful resolution to the conflict, despite the US siding with Russia in last night’s vote.

Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds says the Conservative leader is wrong to say she had negotiated a modernisation plan with British Steel for electric arc furnaces at Teesside and Scunthorpe. Ms Badenoch posted on X on Friday saying as business secretary in the last Conservative government she had negotiated the proposal, but it was "bungled" by Labour. After intervening, Ms Badenoch says: "Labour cannot negotiate. We were negotiating a modernisation deal that would have had limited job losses, just like we had in Port Talbot”. Report by Blairm.

In a dramatic move to end two years of bloodshed, U.S. officials shared a proposed ceasefire plan during closed-door talks in Paris. The deal would freeze the Russia-Ukraine war in place, allowing Moscow to keep occupied territories—for now. Ukraine’s NATO aspirations would be paused, and sanctions on Russia could be gradually lifted if peace holds. In return, Russia must end all military operations. The U.S. plan includes peacekeeping forces, ceasefire monitors, and postwar security guarantees for Ukraine. But critics say the cost of peace may be territorial compromise.

Trump has threatened to withdraw the United States from ongoing Ukraine peace negotiations if key demands are not met. Speaking at a press conference, Trump said, “We’ll take a pass,” if the talks continue to favor what he described as a “one-sided” approach benefiting Ukraine. His warning comes amid rising tensions between Russia and Ukraine, and as Moscow resumes its strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure. Trump’s tough stance is seen as an attempt to reassert U.S. dominance in peace efforts, signaling that Washington will not be a part of any deal that doesn't align with its strategic interests.

President Trump may abandon peace talks between Russia and Ukraine within days if no progress is made. Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that the U.S. won’t prolong discussions without clear signs of a breakthrough. Following high-level meetings in Paris, the White House is growing frustrated with stalled negotiations. Trump, who has personally invested in the process, is also eyeing a new mineral deal with Kyiv after a failed attempt in February. A complete U.S. withdrawal could collapse global peace efforts as no other nation holds the same influence.

The head of the UN nuclear watchdog, Rafael Grossi, has issued a stark warning: Iran is no longer far from having the capability to build a nuclear bomb. Comparing Iran’s progress to a nearly completed puzzle, Grossi revealed that the country has all the necessary pieces — they just haven’t been assembled yet. His remarks come ahead of tense diplomatic talks in Tehran, amid renewed U.S.–Iran contact after years of silence. As the 2015 nuclear deal remains collapsed, fears rise that a new nuclear power may soon emerge in the Middle East.
