'Perpetrators must be brought to justice': India condemns killing of Israeli diplomats in US
Thursday, 22 May 2025 External affairs minister S Jaishankar condemned the killing of Israeli diplomats in Washington, demanding justice for the perpetrators. The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, allegedly shot two embassy staff members near the Capital Jewish Museum, chanting "Free Palestine" during his arrest. President Trump denounced the killings as antisemitic, emphasizing that hatred and radicalism have no place in the USA.

In a significant diplomatic development, India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar met with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing on July 15th, on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit. This high-stakes meeting marked Jaishankar's first visit to China since the deadly 2020 Galwan Valley border clash, signalling a cautious step toward the normalization of ties between the two Asian giants. During his visit, Jaishankar also held talks with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, advocating for a "far-seeing" and strategic approach to the bilateral relationship.
The core of the discussions revolved around the protracted border standoff in Eastern Ladakh. Jaishankar firmly reiterated India's position, stressing that complete troop disengagement in the remaining friction points of Depsang and Demchok is a prerequisite for restoring normalcy and rebuilding trust. He emphasized that peace and tranquility along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) are fundamental to the overall development of India-China relations.
A key highlight of the meeting was Jaishankar's subtle but sharp criticism of China's recent export curbs on rare earth minerals, a move that directly threatens India's critical manufacturing and high-tech sectors. With China controlling over 90% of the global rare earth output, Beijing wields significant economic leverage, a point not lost on the Indian delegation.
Despite the diplomatic optics of cooperation within the SCO framework, deep-seated strategic mistrust remains a major obstacle. The talks were overshadowed by recent revelations from Lt Gen Rahul Singh that China had provided live intelligence, weapons, and drones to Pakistan during a previous conflict. This underscores the challenge India faces, dealing with China's "sweet diplomacy" on one hand and its "cunning moves" on the other, proving that a real thaw in relations will require more than just high-level meetings.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar arrives in Beijing for critical talks with Chinese counterpart Wang Yi—the first visit since the 2020 Ladakh military clash that brought ties to their lowest in six decades. The agenda: defusing tensions, troop withdrawal along the Line of Actual Control, and rebuilding trade and cultural links.
Afterwards, Jaishankar heads to Tianjin for the SCO foreign ministers meeting (July 14–15), where a joint communique is uncertain after India blocked defence ministers’ support over Pakistan's Pahalgam reference. Ahead of Beijing, he also met Singapore’s leaders to boost investment, semiconductors, infrastructure, and Indo‑Pacific cooperation. This mission aims to reset Indo‑China relations, counter global uncertainty, and reaffirm India’s strategic weight in multilateral diplomacy.

A day after Gaza ceasefire talks failed, Hamas fired a rocket toward Israel’s border community of Kissufim, reigniting tensions. Despite Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza since October 7, 2023, Hamas continues covert operations, killing multiple IDF soldiers through guerrilla tactics and IED blasts. Al-Qassam spokesperson Abu Obeida warned of a prolonged attrition war if Israeli tanks push deeper into Gaza. The latest attack underscores Israel’s struggle to fully contain Hamas, signaling a new phase of resistance from Gaza’s militants.

Yemen’s Houthi forces fired a hypersonic Palestine-2 missile at Israel’s technology hub in Be’er Sheva, targeting the nation’s commercial and tech center. Spokesman Yahya Saree claimed the strike achieved its objectives, warning of further escalations if Israel continues its war on Gaza. Houthi drones also hit Eilat, Ashkelon, and Hadera, spanning Israel’s south, west, and north. With over 59,500 Palestinians killed in Gaza, Houthis have intensified multi-front attacks and blockades. Israel has responded with airstrikes on Houthi-controlled ports, fueling a rapidly expanding regional conflict.

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron’s bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September — making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestine’s 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macron’s decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a “reward for terror” and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it “reckless.” Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it “historic.” Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition.

Western Gripen fighter jets — believed to be Swedish-made and NATO-linked — reportedly thundered through Thai airspace to carry out strikes on Cambodian military positions. The alleged aerial bombardment marks a dramatic new phase in the escalating Thailand-Cambodia conflict over the disputed Preah Vihear region. Unconfirmed reports suggest U.S. backing for Thailand’s military posture — raising questions about Donald Trump's growing global military footprint.
After igniting an inferno in the Middle East with Israel-Iran tensions, is Trump now fueling a second front in Southeast Asia? Meanwhile, Kremlin sources have gone quiet, and ASEAN is scrambling to contain what could spiral into a full-blown regional war. Macron has demanded de-escalation. Zelensky has called for urgent talks. But Trump? He’s reportedly “watching the situation closely.” Will this be another proxy war with global players lurking in the shadows?

In a fiery and wide-ranging press conference from Prestwick, Scotland, U.S. President Donald Trump touched on everything from UK trade deals and EU negotiations to the Gaza crisis, Epstein allegations, illegal immigration, and wind energy. Trump confirmed meetings with the UK Prime Minister and EU leaders, calling the UK trade pact a “celebration.” He praised Ursula von der Leyen, dismissed France's recognition of Palestine, and condemned Hamas while vowing support for Israel.
He brushed off any links to the Epstein files and defended his associate Todd Blanche’s interview with Ghislaine Maxwell. Trump fiercely criticized Europe’s windmill projects and issued a grave warning about illegal immigration, claiming “you won’t have Europe anymore.” He also touted “six of the best months in presidency history.” As always, Trump didn’t hold back—sparking new waves of political reaction across Europe and the U.S.

Anti-Trump Protests: A firestorm of protest has erupted at Brazil’s University of São Paulo as students, civil society groups, lawyers, and social leaders rally to defend Brazilian sovereignty against a fresh round of punitive U.S. tariffs. The protest, led by legal scholars like Celso Campilongo and Ana Elisa Bechara, targeted Donald Trump’s aggressive decision to impose a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods starting August 1 — a move widely seen as a political message to support his ally, Jair Bolsonaro.
Protesters gathered under banners proclaiming “Long Live Brazilian Sovereignty,” calling the move a direct attack on Brazil’s democracy and independence. Tensions are soaring as Washington brushes aside a longstanding trade surplus and centuries-old ties. The U.S. claims of judicial persecution against Bolsonaro have only fueled Brazil's outrage. The message from São Paulo is clear: Brazil refuses to be intimidated. The world is watching as the sovereignty battle unfolds.

In a dramatic twist to global nuclear politics, U.S. President Donald Trump has signalled renewed interest in resuming talks with Russia to extend the landmark New START treaty, set to expire in February 2026. Speaking before his trip to Scotland, Trump warned that letting the nuclear treaty lapse would be “a big problem.” The New START deal, inked in 2010 by Obama and Medvedev, limits strategic nuclear warheads and their delivery systems. With the U.S. having previously pulled out of key pacts like the INF and Open Skies treaties during Trump’s first term, the possibility of fresh negotiations has stunned many observers. The Kremlin welcomed dialogue, but emphasized that trust must be rebuilt first—signaling that talks won’t be easy. As global tensions simmer, could this be Trump’s move to reboot U.S.-Russia ties—or a bold bid to shape the world order again?

In a bombshell claim, U.S. President Donald Trump declared that a face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky “is going to happen,” despite the Kremlin drawing a red line. Russia insists such a summit should only occur to finalize a peace deal — not as part of ongoing negotiations.
Trump, who has taken a hard stance on pushing peace since taking office in January, recently threatened 100% secondary tariffs on Russia’s trading partners if no resolution is reached within 50 days. Meanwhile, Moscow demands Ukraine lift martial law, recognize territorial losses, and hold overdue elections. The Kremlin remains skeptical about Zelensky’s legitimacy post his expired term. While Kyiv has repeatedly pushed for a summit, Moscow says a meeting is only possible once substantial progress has been made. As tensions rise, Trump’s bold assertion adds drama to the already fragile diplomatic theatre unfolding between Russia and Ukraine.

U.S. President Donald Trump has lashed out at French President Emmanuel Macron over his announcement to recognize Palestine this September. Trump dismissed Macron’s move as irrelevant, calling him a “lightweight” and insisting his statement “doesn’t carry weight.” Breaking with much of the West, Trump doubled down on his support for Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. As Macron urges an urgent end to the Gaza war, Trump’s comments highlight a growing rift between Western leaders over the path to Middle East peace.
