Friday, 28 February 2025 PM Narendra Modi and EU leader Ursula von der Leyen emphasized a just and lasting peace in Ukraine and reiterated their support for the two-State solution for Israel and Palestine.

Nearly 50 people were detained and dozens injured as rival groups clashed during anti-government protests in Serbia. Violence erupted in Novi Sad when ruling party supporters attacked demonstrators with flares, rocks, and bottles, while an army officer fired in the air. Clashes were reported in 90 locations nationwide, with riot police using tear gas in Belgrade. Protests, ongoing since November after a deadly train station collapse, demand early elections. President Aleksandar Vučić resists, balancing EU membership aspirations with close ties to Russia and China.

Hunting microplastics: French scientists sound the alarm on plastic pollution
We eat, breathe and drink them, but there is still much we don’t know. We’re talking about microplastics. They’re dangerous for the environment and for our health. They can absorb toxic substances and easily make their way into the food chain. What is the European Union doing about it?

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is facing intense criticism after allegedly caving to Donald Trump’s aggressive trade demands out of fear that the U.S. might slash military support to Ukraine or withdraw troops from Europe. According to the Sunday Times, von der Leyen accepted a harsh 15% tariff on most EU exports during a visit to Trump’s golf course in Scotland—scrapping a counter-tariff plan her officials had prepared.
Brussels also pledged $600 billion in U.S. investments and $750 billion in American energy purchases. Leaders like Macron and Orban slammed the deal, with the latter claiming Trump “ate her for breakfast.” Backlash is growing in the EU, where von der Leyen faces rebellion over military spending, vaccine scandals, and dwindling parliamentary support. With Trump’s “posture review” looming, the EU’s strategic future hangs in the balance. Critics say this may be von der Leyen’s final chance to recover politically.

Mid-air panic struck an EasyJet flight from London Luton to Glasgow when a man screamed, “I’m going to bomb the plane,” triggering alarm among passengers. He was also heard yelling, “Death to America, death to Trump,” and “Allahu Akbar.” The shocking outburst was captured on video, now viral on social media. A male passenger quickly subdued the suspect before police arrested the 41-year-old upon landing in Glasgow.
He remains in custody as counter-terrorism units examine the footage. Scotland Police confirmed investigations are ongoing. The airline, however, maintained that the safety of the passengers and flight was never compromised. Interestingly, the incident occurred just as former U.S. President Donald Trump was in Scotland finalizing a major trade deal with EU chief Ursula von der Leyen. The timing and nature of the incident have raised security concerns as authorities dig deeper into the suspect’s motivations and background.

In a move set to draw global attention, US President Donald Trump is preparing an elaborate welcome for Russian President Vladimir Putin at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska on August 15. According to senior administration officials, Trump will personally greet Putin on the tarmac, rolling out the red carpet in a rare display of pageantry between Washington and Moscow. While the final schedule remains under wraps, one official confirmed Trump is not expected to speak with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy or European leaders before the meeting. The high-profile encounter comes at a time of strained US-Russia relations, with both leaders expected to discuss security, trade, and global conflicts. Observers say the optics of this meeting could have far-reaching political consequences, especially given its unusual location and symbolic timing.

As Donald Trump prepares to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage, Alaska, on Friday, Americans remain deeply divided over the high-stakes summit. Critics are denouncing the meeting as a “travesty” and a potential act of betrayal, warning it could undermine U.S. interests and embolden Moscow. Supporters, however, see the gathering as a historic opportunity for Trump to broker a path toward “world peace,” arguing that direct dialogue could end dangerous escalations.
The Alaska meeting, set against the backdrop of the Ukraine war and tense U.S.-Russia relations, is drawing intense media coverage and heated public debate. While some fear Trump will concede too much to Putin, others believe he is uniquely capable of negotiating a breakthrough. With speculation running high, all eyes now turn to Anchorage, where the outcome could redefine America’s role on the global stage.

Hamas has condemned Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s “Greater Israel” remarks as “madness” and a threat to regional stability, urging Arab states to cut ties with Israel and back Palestinian resistance. Hamas accused Israel of using settler violence as part of an annexation strategy in the West Bank, vowing continued defiance against occupation. Iran’s Foreign Ministry also slammed the plan, warning it targets territories in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Netanyahu called the vision a historical and spiritual mission for Israel.

Israeli media report plans to call up 80,000–100,000 IDF reserve troops for a potential occupation of Gaza City under PM Netanyahu’s strategy to dismantle Hamas. The operation, approved in principle by IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, could last until late 2026. Hamas vows fierce resistance, condemning Netanyahu’s “Greater Israel” remarks as dangerous delusion. With Israel already engaged on multiple fronts, including Lebanon and Yemen, tensions are soaring. Hamas claims recent strikes on an Israeli Merkava 4 tank and D9 bulldozer.

Iran has issued a fierce denunciation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s recent remarks promoting the so-called “Greater Israel” project, branding it a “diabolical idea” rooted in fascist intent. Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei accused Netanyahu of openly declaring his regime’s ambition to seize territory from Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria in a blatant violation of the UN Charter and international law.
Baghaei condemned the plan as a direct assault on regional sovereignty, warning it would impose occupation over Muslim nations and expand ongoing atrocities in Palestine. The spokesman also urged the UN, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and all world governments to condemn the scheme. Drawing attention to the worsening humanitarian disaster in Gaza, he called for urgent Arab and Muslim unity to deliver aid, end the genocide, and hold Israeli leaders fully accountable for war crimes and systemic violations.

UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned that both nations could be formally added to the blacklist of violators in next year’s report if patterns persist. The findings cite abuses by Israeli security forces against Palestinian detainees, including forced nud!!ty and genital violence, while Russia faces similar scrutiny in Ukraine. In a historic first, Hamas has also been added to the list for sexu@l violence during the October 7 massacre and against hostages, following evidence from Project Dinah

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to announce a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood at the September UN General Assembly, outlining borders and constitutional principles until a full constitution is passed. France, the UK, and other nations signal possible recognition, with President Macron pledging support. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has condemned the plan, urging Netanyahu to dismantle the PA. The move could mark a turning point in Palestine’s international recognition strategy, but risks sparking intense political backlash.
