‘No NATO or EU’ Trump Announces SHOCKING Trilateral Meet With Putin & Zelensky Without NATO and EU [Video]

‘No NATO or EU’ Trump Announces SHOCKING Trilateral Meet With Putin & Zelensky Without NATO and EU

In a stunning geopolitical twist, President Donald Trump has announced plans for a dramatic three-way summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky — possibly within days. The meeting, which Trump disclosed during a private call with top European leaders, would mark the first in-person U.S.-Russia presidential summit in over four years. Sources reveal that the exclusive trio gathering would not involve NATO or European counterparts — sparking both shock and skepticism across allied capitals. Trump, who believes in his unmatched personal diplomacy, insists that face-to-face talks are the only route to peace. While Zelensky hinted at cautious optimism, European leaders voiced doubts about Putin’s sincerity. Trump’s team confirmed that Russia requested the meeting and that his envoy, Steve Witkoff, has already met with Putin. The bold move echoes Trump’s past direct diplomacy tactics, like with North Korea's Kim Jong-un.

Trump Plots U.S Takeover of Gaza Aid Amid Israeli Failure | “Babies Must Not Starve” - White House

U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly preparing to take unprecedented action by leading America into direct control of humanitarian aid operations in Gaza. With starvation and famine gripping the region, Axios reports that Trump met privately with envoy Steve Witkoff after his return from Israel and Gaza, where he expressed outrage over Israel’s handling of the crisis. “He doesn’t want babies to starve,” a U.S. official said, adding that Trump is now fixated on the humanitarian collapse. Despite his reluctance, Trump is positioning the U.S. to take the lead—while pressuring Europe and Arab allies to contribute. With global pressure mounting and Gaza on the brink, this could mark a dramatic shift in America's involvement in the region. #Trump #GazaCrisis #HumanitarianAid #IsraelGazaWar #GazaFamine #TrumpNews #MiddleEast #USForeignPolicy #GlobalCrisis #BreakingNews #SteveWitkoff #TrumpAdministration #WestBank #Palestine #GazaAid ~PR.274~ED.346~GR.122~ED.346~

Trump-Putin Love-Hate Relationship To Ignite WORLD WAR 3? NATO Fumes As U.S Announces Peace Summit

In a move shocking European capitals, President Trump has announced a high-stakes trilateral summit with Presidents Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky, aimed at ending the Ukraine war. What’s even more dramatic is who’s not invited — NATO. Sources reveal that Trump’s special envoy has already met Putin in Moscow, reigniting speculation over Trump’s controversial rapport with the Russian leader. Their love-hate dynamic — marked by admiration, sanctions, secret diplomacy, and fiery spats — is back at center stage. Trump is betting that his personal influence over Putin can accomplish what global institutions have failed to do: end the war. The summit, already drawing skepticism from U.S. allies, may mark either a diplomatic triumph or a disastrous gamble. Trump’s critics say he’s legitimizing Putin again — while supporters hail the bold effort. Is this peace through ego, or the beginning of a new world order? #TrumpPutin #UkrainePeaceTalks #Zelensky #TrumpSummit #PutinTrump #USRussia #Geopolitics #TrumpUkraine #NATO #CeasefireNow #DiplomacyDrama #TrumpPutinZelensky #BRICS #RussiaUkraine #TrumpPeaceBid #WhiteHouseSummit #TrumpLoveHate #GlobalShock #TrumpWorldOrder #BreakingNews ~ED.346~HT.408~

Trump’s Surprise Peace Talks With Putin SHOCKS NATO And EU | Russia-Ukraine War Nearing Its End

President Donald Trump dropped a major geopolitical bombshell, revealing that “very good talks” were held with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and strongly hinting that peace talks between Russia and Ukraine may be imminent. Speaking optimistically, Trump said there's “a very good chance” the war could be nearing its “end of the road,” sparking global speculation about a possible three-way summit. Though no dates or details were confirmed, Trump’s tone suggested behind-the-scenes negotiations are already underway. The former president has long claimed he could end the war swiftly, and these new remarks have raised eyebrows across NATO, Kyiv, and Moscow. With the Russia-Ukraine war dragging into another brutal year, any sign of diplomatic breakthrough is being watched with bated breath. Trump's comments nowthrust him back onto the world stage as a potential broker of peace—or at least a disruptive wildcard in the fragile balance of global diplomacy. #Trump #Putin #UkraineWar #PeaceTalks #RussiaUkraine #Geopolitics #TrumpPutinMeeting #Zelensky #GlobalDiplomacy #NATOWatch #TrumpSpeech #OvalOffice #UkraineCrisis #CeasefireTalks #WhiteHouseNews #USRussiaRelations #BreakingNews #PeaceSummit #WorldNews #Trump2025 ~ED.346~GR.124~HT.96~

WW3 Warning: ‘We Will Deploy…’ Russia’s CHILLING Warning Against U.S | Putin Lifts Missile Ban [Video]

WW3 Warning: ‘We Will Deploy…’ Russia’s CHILLING Warning Against U.S | Putin Lifts Missile Ban

In a chilling development, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev declared that Moscow is no longer bound by its self-imposed moratorium on deploying medium- and short-range missiles — a move that signals a sharp escalation in its confrontation with NATO. Citing “the result of NATO’s anti-Russian policy,” Medvedev warned the West to brace for “further steps,” calling this aggressive shift a “new reality” that Russia’s opponents must face. This policy shift paves the way for the Kremlin to deploy ground-based missile systems previously banned under the now-defunct INF Treaty. Moscow’s decision has sparked fears across Europe and the U.S. of a renewed arms race and heightened global instability. The announcement comes amid rising tensions over Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing military drills along Russian borders. As Russia signals its readiness to respond forcefully, the geopolitical chessboard enters dangerous new territory. #RussiaMissiles #MedvedevWarning #MissileMoratorium #INFwithdrawal #NATOvsRussia #DmitryMedvedev #GlobalTensions #RussiaNATOClash #MilitaryEscalation #RussiaArmsRace #PutinMoves #NewColdWar #NuclearThreats #RussiaShortRangeMissiles #RussianForeignPolicy #GeopoliticalCrisis #EuropeSecurity #USRussiaTensions #ExpectFurtherSteps #KremlinStatement Also Read War between France-Germany, Elon Musk will become US president: Predictions by close Putin aide :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/war-between-france-germany-elon-musk-will-become-us-president-predictions-by-close-putin-aide-3504786.html?ref=DMDesc Post Putin’s announcement on constitutional reforms, Russian PM steps down :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/post-putins-announcement-on-constitutional-reforms-russian-pm-steps-down-3015280.html?ref=DMDesc No visa needed for Indians to visit Russia's far east :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/no-visa-needed-indians-visit-russia-s-far-east-2408596.html?ref=DMDesc

Putin has announced he’s open to meeting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky — but only after a series of strict and chilling preconditions are met.
