‘Hegseth touted the cold war…’ China BLASTS U.S In Response To Pete Hegseth's Speech In Singapore

China has lashed out at U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth following his remarks at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, where he warned that China could imminently use military force against Taiwan. Beijing condemned the speech as provocative and divisive, accusing Hegseth of inciting bloc confrontation and pushing a Cold War mentality. China's foreign ministry dismissed the U.S. accusations as defamatory and asserted that only Washington deserved the label of a hegemonic power. The fiery exchange underscores growing regional tensions over Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific power balance. #China #PeteHegseth #TaiwanCrisis #IndoPacific #USChinaTensions #ShangriLaDialogue #AsiaPacific #ColdWarRhetoric #TaiwanConflict #USDefence #ChinaUS #TaiwanStrait #Geopolitics #CCP #MilitaryThreat #BlocConfrontation #WarOfWords #DefenceSpeech #BeijingVsWashington #AsiaSecurity ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.124~

Kremlin SLAMS Trump In A FIERY Response To His ‘Kid’s Brawl’ Comment On Russia-Ukraine War

In a stunning Oval Office remark, U.S. President Donald Trump compared the Russia-Ukraine war to “two kids fighting,” saying it might be better to let them brawl before stepping in. The Kremlin responded sharply, calling the war an "existential issue" tied to Russia’s national security and future. As German Chancellor Merz urged U.S. intervention, Trump signaled a more hands-off approach. The latest Trump-Putin exchange reveals deep global divisions and raises questions about America’s role in ending the war.

“Let Them Fight For A While” Trump’s SHOCKING Comments On Russia-Ukraine War | Putin | Zelenskyy

In a dramatic analogy, U.S. President Donald Trump compared the Russia-Ukraine war to a children's brawl, saying it's better to “let them fight for a while” before peace is enforced. During his Oval Office meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Trump claimed acting like a referee, not a peacemaker. He also hinted at possible punitive actions against both nations if the war doesn't end, stating “it takes two to tango.” Merz, invoking D-Day history, urged Trump to use America’s power to stop Putin and bring peace to Europe. #TrumpUkraine #RussiaUkraineWar #DonaldTrump #TrumpPutin #LetThemFight #TrumpControversy #UkraineWar #PutinTrump #MerzTrumpMeeting #GermanyUS #OvalOfficeDrama #TrumpSpeech #GlobalTensions #WarInUkraine #TrumpAnalogy #WorldPolitics #UkraineCrisis #USRussiaTensions #EuropeanAllies #PeaceOrWar Also Read Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.102~
