EX Russian President Medvedev Claims Western Europe Is Waging ‘Quiet War’ Against Trump

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev claims that Western European leaders are waging a “quiet war” against former President Trump. He suggests that ideological conflicts, particularly over tariffs and NATO disagreements, are driving a wedge between the U.S. and Europe. Medvedev predicts that despite Europe’s large economy, the U.S. will emerge victorious due to its superior economic and military strength. He also highlighted the growing divide between Europe's neo-globalist forces and Trump’s conservative, traditionalist movement, which is paving the way for a potential reconciliation with Russia. #DmitryMedvedev #TrumpVsEurope #QuietWar #USEuropeanTensions #NATODisagreements #USRussiaRelations #EconomicStrength #MilitaryEdge #GlobalPowerShift #TrumpConservatism #USPolitics #NeoGlobalism #EuropeanUnion #WesternEurope #Geopolitics #MedvedevSpeaks #PoliticalConflict #TrumpSupporters #USForeignPolicy #USMilitaryStrength #TrumpAndRussia #EuropeanTensions #PoliticalShift #USVictory #USPrevails #GlobalInfluence #TariffWars #EUUSRelations #MoscowEvent #KnowledegeFirst #RussiaPolitics Also Read Trump Declares Columbus Day Will Remain Unchanged Amid Indigenous Peoples Day Recognition :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reinstates-columbus-day-amid-indigenous-peoples-day-debate-011-4136967.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Considers Temporary Exemption from Auto Tariffs to Aid Car Manufacturers Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-considers-temporary-exemption-auto-tariffs-011-4124041.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Dismisses General Tim Haugh from National Security Agency Amidst Congressional Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-fires-general-tim-haugh-national-security-agency-011-4115013.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~ED.103~

BIG War In South China Sea: China Dares To Track Stealth U.S submarines | New Quantum Drone In Sea [Video]

BIG War In South China Sea: China Dares To Track Stealth U.S submarines | New Quantum Drone In Sea

Chinese scientists have unveiled a powerful quantum sensor that could tip the balance in undersea warfare. Tested offshore, the drone-mounted system achieves picotesla-level precision, tracking submarines and mapping seabed resources with unprecedented accuracy. The breakthrough overcomes limitations of traditional magnetometers, offering omnidirectional detection even in low-latitude blind zones like the South China Sea. Using coherent population trapping in rubidium atoms, the new Chinese sensor rivals NATO’s MAD-XR at a fraction of the cost, potentially reshaping anti-submarine operations across key strategic waters. #China #QuantumSensor #UnderseaWarfare #SubmarineDetection #SouthChinaSea #DefenseTechnology #QuantumBreakthrough #MilitaryInnovation #ChineseMilitary #PLA #MaritimeSecurity #NavalWarfare #DroneTechnology #MADXR #AntiSubmarineWarfare #QuantumScience #RubidiumAtoms #CPTMagnetometer #GlobalSecurity #Geopolitics #SubmarineWarfare #SensorTechnology #UnderwaterSurveillance #DefenseNews #TechInnovation #ChineseNavy #Shandong #QuantumTech #SubmarineTracking #MilitaryBreakthrough

Exclusive U.S Peace Proposal Leaks: Ukraine War Endgame Revealed in Secret Paris Meeting

A confidential U.S. peace proposal to end the Ukraine war was secretly presented by envoy Steve Witkoff to European officials in Paris on April 17, 2025. The leaked plan includes a permanent ceasefire, Ukraine’s NATO exit, U.S. recognition of Crimea as Russian territory, and economic benefits for both Kyiv and Moscow. Ukraine would regain limited territory and receive financial aid, while Russia would benefit from lifted sanctions. The plan, labeled Washington’s “final offer,” signals a dramatic shift in U.S. diplomacy.
