President Donald Trump has reignited global trade tension by declaring that the U.S. can “do whatever we want” as the July 8 deadline on reciprocal tariffs approaches. The 90-day pause on steep U.S. import duties—affecting several nations—is set to expire soon, with Trump refusing to confirm adherence to any deadline. While the EU faces a 50% tariff threat by July 9, Trump hinted flexibility, echoing his stance that America will act in its best interest. Amidst this uncertainty, Trump teased a “very big” trade deal with India, stating the U.S. has finalized partial deals with China and the UK and is working on opening India’s trade structure. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Indian Minister Piyush Goyal have confirmed negotiations are progressing. Trump suggested letters may soon be sent to over 200 nations outlining revised U.S. trade terms. The trade battlefield is heating up again—with Trump in full control.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, alongside India’s S. Jaishankar, accused the U.S. of weaponizing the dollar and using sanctions as “economic colonialism.” Lavrov warned that even allies are unsafe from Washington’s unpredictability, framing BRICS as a counterbalance to Western dominance. India backed the bloc, stressing it is “not anti-West, just not Western.” With BRICS expanding to include nations like Iran, UAE, and Egypt, the bloc now represents over 40% of the global population, aiming to reshape financial systems, technology, and influence in the Global South.

Russia launched a deadly overnight strike on U.S.-owned Flex Ltd in Ukraine, using drones, cruise missiles, and Kinzhal hypersonic weapons. The attack, which left at least 15 people injured, coincided with Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s visit to Moscow, where he met President Putin and Foreign Minister Lavrov. Jaishankar slammed U.S. oil policy while Russia intensified its pressure on the West. With over 800 workers evacuated and significant damage reported, analysts say the strike may have been a warning to Washington and its allies over India sanctions.

missiles struck a U.S. electronics and home appliance manufacturing facility, nearly burning it to the ground. He emphasized that the attack was not a mistake but a calculated strike against American property and investments inside Ukraine. While assuring citizens that Ukraine would continue to defend its people and territory, Zelensky also echoed U.S. President Donald Trump’s stance, saying defense alone is not enough and that diplomatic channels must remain open to bring peace closer. The strike highlights Russia’s widening strategy of targeting foreign investments in Ukraine, escalating already tense U.S.-Russia relations. This latest incident underscores the risks international companies face operating in the war-torn region, while fueling debates over whether the Kremlin is sending a direct warning to Washington.

Russia unleashed one of its biggest aerial assaults of the war, firing over 600 drones and missiles in a single night. A key target: a U.S.-owned Flex electronics plant in Mukachevo, western Ukraine, producing coffee machines and printer cartridges. At least 19 people were injured and the civilian factory suffered massive structural damage.
Speculation erupted online that Russia had deployed its deadly Oreshnik hypersonic missiles, capable of flying at Mach 5+ and evading air defenses. Reports later clarified the facility was struck by cruise missiles — but the fear of escalation lingers.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the attack, calling it not only an assault on Ukraine but also on American interests. The strike comes just days after Donald Trump hosted Vladimir Putin in Alaska, attempting to broker a peace deal. Many see the bombing as Putin’s rejection of diplomacy — and a direct challenge to Washington.

The world is on the brink as Russia unleashes a massive wave of missiles and drones on Ukraine, striking a U.S.-owned factory employing 600 workers and pounding major cities. This shocking assault comes just days after the high-stakes Trump-Putin Alaska meeting, now branded a complete failure. With talks between Trump, Putin, and Zelensky collapsing before they could even begin, fears of World War 3 are spiraling
