Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order renaming the Pentagon’s Department of Defense back to its historic title — the Department of War. Calling it a return to America’s “warrior ethos,” Trump argues that the U.S. secured victories in World War I and World War II under the War Department, but lost its offensive edge after the switch to Defense. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, now to be called Secretary of War, backs the shift as a cultural and strategic reset for the military. But will Congress allow this move to stand? Or is Trump rewriting America’s military legacy on his own?

A rare B-2 stealth bomber, flanked by F-35 fighter jets, flew over Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska as Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin met for high-stakes talks on the Ukraine war. The dramatic display of U.S. airpower set the stage for the summit, with Putin briefly looking up at the aircraft as it passed overhead.

India has officially declined the U.S. offer to purchase F-35 fighter jets, citing strategic constraints and Trump’s new 25% tariffs on Indian goods. Instead, Russia’s Su-57 has emerged as the top contender, with Moscow offering co-production and Make-in-India support. India's Air Force modernization push comes amid rising threats from China and Pakistan’s growing fighter fleets. The F-35's inability to integrate with non-NATO weapons and its $100M+ price tag made it less viable for India. The shift signals New Delhi's pivot in defense policy amid strained U.S.-India trade ties.

India has reportedly declined a U.S. offer to buy F-35 stealth fighter jets, according to Bloomberg. The offer was made by President Trump during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Instead of purchasing American jets, India is prioritizing joint defense manufacturing initiatives and has shown greater interest in the Russian Su-57, especially after its debut at Aero India.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs downplayed Bloomberg’s report, confirming no formal talks on the F-35 have taken place yet. Meanwhile, the U.S. has slapped 25% tariffs on Indian imports due to a failed trade deal, escalating tensions. Trump also announced India would face a penalty over its continued defense ties with Russia. This deepening rift could impact U.S.-India defense cooperation and reshape future arms procurement.

A shocking new report reveals Canada has secretly supplied weapons to Israel amid the Gaza conflict, contradicting its stated export freeze. Activist researchers traced at least 13 arms-linked flights from Toronto, many via civilian carriers like Air Canada and Lufthansa. Items shipped included F-35 parts, radar gear, and ammunition. Elbit Systems is identified as a major recipient. The exposé surfaces just as PM Mark Carney announces recognition of Palestine, admitting Israeli settlement expansions have rendered negotiations "no longer tenable."

White House AI Summit led by First Lady Melania Trump is making global headlines. From warning that “the robots are here” to demanding stronger AI education in U.S. schools, Melania has taken a bold and unexpected step into the world of technology. Big Tech CEOs are lining up behind her initiative, giving the White House effort unprecedented weight. But critics ask: is this about empowering America’s children—or controlling the future of artificial intelligence itself?

White House is pointing fingers at Europe, accusing EU leaders of obstructing Ukraine peace talks with what it calls “unreasonable” and “fairy-tale” demands. According to Axios, senior US officials say some European governments publicly endorse President Donald Trump’s peace drive while privately pushing Kiev toward unrealistic conditions, prolonging the war. Trump, fresh from his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin and meetings with Volodymyr Zelensky, is pressing for a lasting peace deal—not just a ceasefire. But frustration is mounting in Washington, with officials warning Europe against escalating while leaving America to pay the cost. The Atlantic reported that Trump has grown impatient with both Kiev’s unwillingness to make concessions and EU refusal to back what he calls a “realistic outcome.” Moscow, meanwhile, insists on neutrality for Ukraine, rejection of NATO expansion, and recognition of new territorial realities, including Crimea and Donbass as part of Russia.

In conversation with OneIndia’s Nagen Singh, Burzine Waghmar, SOAS South Asia Institute, London reveals how UK PM Keir Starmer trained Volodymyr Zelensky before his meeting with Donald Trump in order to avoid a repeat of the February meeting at the White House. Waghmar calls Trump a ‘Capricious, Petty Minded and Thick Skinned’ Politician and says that Starmer delivered a ‘masterclass’ in how to deal with Trump. He even added that Trump ‘has no ideology’ and that is why he hosted Pakistani Field Marshall Asim Munir at the White House.
