BREAKING: Trump CALLS Putin To Decide Ukraine's Future | U.S Ready To Accept Russian Victory? [Video]

BREAKING: Trump CALLS Putin To Decide Ukraine's Future | U.S Ready To Accept Russian Victory?

In a stunning development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced he will speak with U.S. President Donald Trump by phone. The announcement came during a business forum on July 3, 2025, with Putin offering no details on the agenda before leaving abruptly for the call. Minutes later, Trump confirmed the 10 AM ET conversation on social media, sending shockwaves through the international community. This high-stakes call comes at a critical moment in the Russia-Ukraine war. Russian forces have been making significant territorial gains, recently claiming full control over the strategic region of Luhansk. This major blow to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's government has been exacerbated by a slowdown in crucial military support from the United States. Moscow has intensified its aerial attacks, and the geopolitical landscape appears to be shifting, with both NATO and the U.S. seemingly easing their harsh rhetoric against Putin's actions. Speculation is now rampant over the purpose of the Putin-Trump discussion. Key questions remain unanswered: What will they discuss? Will this call formalize a Russian victory and signal the end of the war? This move is particularly significant given Trump's previous vow to end the war in "24 hours," a promise he has struggled to fulfill since taking office. The world is watching to see if this phone call will reshape global security and determine the final fate of Ukraine. #PutinTrumpCall #RussiaUkraineWar #DonaldTrump #VladimirPutin #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Ukraine #Zelenskyy #NATO #USPolitics #OneindiaNews Also Read Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~

Patriot & Stinger Missiles Halted In Poland As US Freezes Major Arms Shipment To Ukraine |US-Ukraine

In a stunning development, the U.S. has halted a critical weapons shipment to Ukraine that had already been staged in Poland, according to a bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal. The cache includes over two dozen PAC-3 Patriot missiles, more than two dozen Stinger air-defense systems, Hellfire missiles, and 90+ AIM air-to-air missiles designated for Ukraine’s F-16 fighter jets. U.S. administration and congressional officials reportedly confirmed the freeze, which aligns with the ongoing strategic review under the “America First” doctrine. The move comes amid rising Ukrainian frustration, with officials accusing Washington of endangering their defense readiness. The freeze has triggered intense geopolitical anxiety, with Kyiv urging clarity while Moscow eyes an advantage. #Ukraine #USWeaponsAid #PatriotMissiles #StingerMissiles #HellfireMissiles #F16 #UkraineWar #Poland #TrumpDoctrine #AmericaFirst #Kyiv #Biden #AIMMissiles #MilitaryFreeze #USUkraineTensions #DefenseAid #MissileShipment #Zelensky #NATOSupport #WSJ ~HT.410~ED.102~

U.S’ Flip-Flop Game: U.S Military Aid To Ukraine Under Review As Pentagon Halts Key Shipments [Video]

U.S’ Flip-Flop Game: U.S Military Aid To Ukraine Under Review As Pentagon Halts Key Shipments

The Pentagon has confirmed it is conducting a “capability review” to reassess whether military aid to Ukraine aligns with America’s shifting defense priorities. Chief spokesperson Sean Parnell said the U.S. is taking a hard look at promised weapons deliveries — some of which are now halted — to ensure national interests come first. The move follows the White House’s decision to stop key shipments of air defense ammunition, artillery shells, and missiles previously pledged under the Biden administration. With President Trump’s “America First” policy reshaping foreign aid strategy, the Pentagon appears to be pivoting away from prolonged foreign entanglements. Ukrainian officials have slammed the halt as betrayal, warning it weakens their resistance against Russia’s advances. Meanwhile, analysts say this could signal a major realignment in U.S. global commitments — and a boost for Russian military strategy.

Ukraine Left in Dark? US Scrambles to Deny Aid Miscommunication as Trump Freezes New Weapons Package

Is Ukraine really in the dark about suspended U.S. military aid? The U.S. State Department responds to reports claiming Kyiv learned of the aid pause through the media. Spokesperson Tammy Bruce insists communication took place—but Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense says no official notice was ever received. With Trump yet to greenlight new defense packages and stockpiles running low, pressure mounts as the war with Russia enters a critical phase. Are U.S.-Ukraine ties beginning to fray?

‘Trump Can Go F**k Himself’:  Ukraine BLASTS U.S For Sudden Suspension of Weapons Aid | U.S-Ukraine [Video]

‘Trump Can Go F**k Himself’: Ukraine BLASTS U.S For Sudden Suspension of Weapons Aid | U.S-Ukraine

The United States has abruptly paused deliveries of key military aid—air defence ammunition, missiles, and artillery shells—to Ukraine under Trump’s “America First” doctrine. Ukrainian MPs blasted this move, insisting “the United States is no longer our ally.” Mariana Bezuglaya and Solomiya Bobrovskaya accused the administration of sidelining Kyiv, even summoning the US chargé d’affaires to demand resumed support. President Trump told Zelensky at The Hague that US systems are “very hard to get” and prioritized for national and Israeli defense. Meanwhile, Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell confirmed a “capability review” to align aid with US interests. Kiev warns that this retrenchment could empower Russian advances toward Dnipro and Sumy, diminishing Ukraine’s defence. Moscow, unburdened, claims strategic initiative on the frontline. The aid suspension represents a major shift in US foreign policy and risks weakening Ukraine’s resistance as the war grinds on. #Ukraine #USUkraine #Trump #AmericaFirst #MilitaryAid #WeaponSuspension #Pentagon #CapReview #Dnipro #Sumy #UkraineRussia #Zelensky #NATO #ForeignPolicy #AirDefense #Missiles #Artillery #USForeignPolicy #UkraineWar #USInternational

Putin UNVEILS Economic Revival For Donbass, Crushes U.S-Backed Peace Hopes With BOLD Plans [Video]

Putin UNVEILS Economic Revival For Donbass, Crushes U.S-Backed Peace Hopes With BOLD Plans

Russian President Vladimir Putin has dismissed the possibility of a US-brokered peace deal by announcing sweeping economic plans to rebuild Donbass and other newly integrated territories. In a bold move, Putin accused Kiev of decades of neglect, stating these regions were "abandoned" before Moscow’s intervention. Now under Russian control, he pledged a full-scale economic reboot to “unlock their full potential” and ensure locals see “real improvement.” This strategic pivot not only bolsters Russia’s hold on the contested areas but also signals defiance to Western diplomacy, especially amid growing international pressure. The timing — as Western leaders push for de-escalation — reveals Moscow’s determination to consolidate gains through infrastructure, development, and economic integration. #Putin #Donbass #RussiaUkraineWar #Donetsk #Luhansk #Crimea #RussianEconomy #USPeacePlan #UkraineConflict #KievNeglect #RussianReconstruction #WarAftermath #ProRussia #EconomicReboot #Zelensky #WesternIntervention #MoscowMoves #UkraineWarUpdate #OccupiedTerritories #RussiaNews Also Read John Mahama Sworn in as Ghana's President for Third Time Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mahama-sworn-in-as-ghana-president-third-time-economic-crisis-011-4036405.html?ref=DMDesc Chhattisgarh Leaders Remember Dr Manmohan Singh, A Giant of Economics, After His Passing :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/dr-manmohan-singh-passes-away-chhattisgarh-leaders-tribute-011-4026919.html?ref=DMDesc Manmohan Singh's Brief Pursuit of Medicine Before Embracing Economics, Revealed by Daughter Daman :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/manmohan-singh-pre-medical-course-interest-011-4026803.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~
