A rift has emerged within Donald Trump’s inner circle over Russia’s intentions in the Ukraine war. While Secretary of State Marco Rubio and envoy Keith Kellogg urge caution, Trump leans toward aide Steve Witkoff, who believes Moscow seeks peace. Witkoff’s meetings with Putin, including a recent 5-hour session, intensified the divide. Meanwhile, a deadly missile strike in Sumy triggered further controversy, with Trump calling it a "mistake" while others condemned it. Russia blames Ukraine for escalation and misinformation. As trust wanes, US foreign policy appears sharply divided.

Trump confidant and peace negotiator Steve Witkoff has sparked global debate after a third visit to Moscow, where he met with Vladimir Putin to discuss Ukraine peace terms. Despite criticism, top figures like Elon Musk and Marco Rubio backed Witkoff’s efforts. Known for orchestrating ceasefires and prisoner swaps, Witkoff has emerged as a central figure in US foreign policy under Trump. He also traveled to Oman for nuclear talks with Iran. Critics claim he’s overstepping, but supporters hail his results-driven diplomacy as groundbreaking and necessary in tense global climates.

In an exclusive and urgent diplomatic meeting, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff met with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss a potential ceasefire in Ukraine, sparking growing concerns in Kyiv. As the war continues, Ukrainian President Zelensky voices his frustrations over the increasing isolation of Ukraine in the peace process, raising questions about the future of the country’s sovereignty. With the backchannel talks intensifying, many are left wondering: Will these discussions lead to real peace, or will Ukraine be sidelined in the negotiations?

Trump’s administration has referred New York AG Letitia James for criminal prosecution, alleging she committed mortgage fraud by misrepresenting her primary residence and falsely listing her father as her husband. The explosive claims come as James continues to pursue legal action against Trump. Critics call it poetic justice, pointing out James previously charged Trump for similar offenses. Legal experts say the documents appear “damning,” raising questions about whether James followed the same legal standards she holds others to. The DOJ has not yet responded.

The U.S. and Iran are quietly resuming indirect nuclear talks in Oman, the first serious engagement since the 2015 deal collapsed. Ayatollah Khamenei confirmed the dialogue but expressed deep skepticism, stating, “We are pessimistic about the other side.” President Trump, who dismantled the original deal in his first term, has renewed sanctions and issued fresh warnings of military action if Iran refuses to negotiate. Despite positive framing by both sides, Tehran stresses these talks remain indirect and cautious. Tensions remain high, and trust is nowhere in sight.

In a surprising turn of events, the U.S. and Iran have confirmed the results of their first major diplomatic engagement in years. Taking place in the Omani capital of Muscat, these discussions focused on Iran’s controversial nuclear program and the potential for easing U.S. sanctions. Both sides described the talks as “constructive,” with the Iranian Foreign Minister and U.S. Special Envoy praising the progress made. Despite this optimism, the question remains: are these diplomatic steps leading to a major breakthrough or simply political maneuvering? With future meetings set for April 19, will the two nations finally come to an agreement, or are tensions far from resolution? Stay tuned as we unpack the details of this historic engagement and what it could mean for global security.

The U.S. has approved a major arms shipment to Israel, including 3,000 bombs, signaling preparation not just for Gaza, but possibly a strike on Iran. Israeli officials confirmed that these munitions will enhance Air Force readiness for large-scale operations. While the Gaza offensive takes global attention, analysts warn the real showdown may be brewing with Tehran. This deal, once frozen under Biden, was fast-tracked by Trump. Experts say the munitions can also target hardened Iranian facilities—raising fresh concerns about regional escalation and U.S. involvement in Israel-Iran tensions.

Israel's Minister of Military Affairs, Israel Katz, has declared that troops will remain in Gaza, Lebanon, and southern Syria indefinitely. He claimed this military presence serves as a "buffer" to protect Israeli settlers. Despite ceasefires and truce deals, Israel continues occupying territory, intensifying operations in Gaza while rejecting peace negotiations. Katz's statement signals a long-term strategy of control, not just retaliation against Hamas. Since March 18, over 1,600 Palestinians have been killed following Israel's resumption of military operations, part of a broader campaign that has killed over 51,000 since October 7.

The United States has greenlit a new shipment of over 3,000 powerful munitions to Israel, including MK-84 bombs tied to mass casualties in Gaza. The move comes as Tel Aviv signals a “vigorous expansion” of its assault on the Gaza Strip. Israeli forces have now surrounded Rafah and are advancing with major brigades. The humanitarian toll has surged, with thousands of Palestinians killed or injured. This arms transfer is part of a broader package aimed at reinforcing Israel's arsenal amid growing regional escalations, also involving Syria and Lebanon.
