‘Putin Is a Predator’: EU Chief Ursula Vows to ARM Europe With a Strong Army Against Russian Threat

EU Chief Ursula von der Leyen has escalated tensions with Moscow, calling President Vladimir Putin a “predator” while urging European nations to boost their militaries against the Russian threat. Speaking in Riga during her Europe tour, von der Leyen blamed Russia for hybrid attacks, cyber operations, and weaponizing migrants. Her remarks follow Putin’s warning against Western sanctions and his show of unity with China. As the EU pushes for militarization and Moscow aligns with Beijing, Europe risks becoming a major flashpoint in the ongoing Ukraine conflict. #EU #UrsulaVonDerLeyen #Putin #Russia #UkraineWar #Europe #NATO #ChinaRussia #Geopolitics #GlobalSecurity #MilitaryBuildUp #HybridWarfare #CyberAttacks #EuropeanUnion #UkraineCrisis #RussiaUkraine #WestVsRussia #DefenseStrategy #EUChief #Moscow #XiJinping #China #Sanctions #WarFlashpoint #PoliticalTensions #EasternEurope #Baltics #RussiaThreat #GlobalConflict #BreakingNews #WorldPolitics Also Read Trump To Arrange Face-To-Face Meeting Between Putin And Ukraine's Zelenskyy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-to-arrange-face-to-face-meeting-between-putin-and-ukraines-zelenskyy-7833925.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Says No Agreement On Ending Russia's War In Ukraine As Putin Says There Was An 'Understanding' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-no-agreement-on-ending-russia-war-ukraine-putin-7831387.html?ref=DMDesc US President Trump Says He Will Meet Russian Counterpart Putin On August 15 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-says-he-will-meet-russian-counterpart-putin-on-august-15-7824671.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.103~HT.408~

Ukraine War LATEST: Trump Backs Chinese Peacekeepers In Ukraine | Is Trump Hiding Pro-Russia Agenda? [Video]

Ukraine War LATEST: Trump Backs Chinese Peacekeepers In Ukraine | Is Trump Hiding Pro-Russia Agenda?

US President Donald Trump has reportedly floated the idea of deploying Chinese peacekeepers to Ukraine as part of a potential ceasefire deal with Russia, according to the Financial Times. Sources claim Trump suggested Chinese troops could patrol a neutral zone along the 1,300km frontline between Russian and Ukrainian forces. The proposal, allegedly made during a White House meeting with European leaders and President Volodymyr Zelensky, has triggered controversy and resistance from EU nations. Zelensky himself has rejected the idea in the past, citing Beijing’s failure to prevent earlier conflicts. While a senior Trump official dismissed the FT report as “false,” the very suggestion of Chinese boots on Ukrainian soil is sparking global debate. Beijing has so far denied any willingness to join such missions, insisting on neutrality. Moscow, however, has signaled it would only accept peace guarantees backed by UN Security Council powers, including China. #Trump #China #Ukraine #Russia #Peacekeepers #BreakingNews #Zelensky #Moscow #Beijing #UkraineWar #Ceasefire #TrumpProposal #EU #NATO #UkraineCrisis #UN #GlobalPolitics #PeacePlan #UkraineConflict #Geopolitics ~ED.103~HT.408~GR.124~

Putin WARNS US & West Hours Before China Visit |Russia–China Axis Rises Against Trump's Sanction War

On the eve of his China visit, President Vladimir Putin warned the U.S. and the West against trying tocripple Russia’s economy with sanctions. Acknowledging recession risks due to oil curbs and the war in Ukraine, Putin emphasized Russia’s unity with China, declaring joint opposition to “discriminatory sanctions.” As the U.S. and Europe push for a Ukraine peace deal, Putin is instead rallying support from China, India, and Brazil. With record $245B trade between Moscow and Beijing, Putin thanked Xi for backing Russia against isolation. #Putin #RussiaChina #ChinaVisit #USWestTensions #Sanctions #RussiaEconomy #UkraineWar #XiJinping #GlobalPolitics #Geopolitics #BRICS #PutinXi #TradeWar #OilSanctions #WorldNews #RussiaVsWest #MoscowBeijing #RussiaChinaAlliance #BreakingNews #WestVsEast #PutinSpeech #RussiaSanctions #EconomicWar #USPolitics #ChinaRussiaTrade #PutinXiSummit #GlobalConflict #RussiaChinaUnity #PutinWarnsWest #NoLimitsPartnership Also Read What Is Press Note 3 and Why Is It Key to Chinese Investment in India? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/what-is-press-note-3-and-why-is-it-key-to-chinese-investment-in-india-7843081.html?ref=DMDesc Trump To Arrange Face-To-Face Meeting Between Putin And Ukraine's Zelenskyy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-to-arrange-face-to-face-meeting-between-putin-and-ukraines-zelenskyy-7833925.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Says No Agreement On Ending Russia's War In Ukraine As Putin Says There Was An 'Understanding' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-no-agreement-on-ending-russia-war-ukraine-putin-7831387.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.96~GR.122~

Russia’s 100,000 Soldiers Ready To Invade Ukraine From the East | Zelensky BEGS NATO For Weapons

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that Russia is amassing up to 100,000 troops near the eastern stronghold of Pokrovsk, signaling preparations for a major offensive. While Ukrainian forces push back in the Sumy region, Zelensky is pressing NATO allies to accelerate U.S.-made weapons deliveries and provide stronger long-term guarantees. Outlining three security pillars—sustaining Ukraine’s military, NATO-style commitments, and sanctions on Russia—Zelensky stressed that Ukraine’s future stability also depends on EU membership. Moscow, however, rejected the plan, warning foreign peacekeepers would be seen as intervention. #Zelensky #Putin #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #NATO #EasternFront #Pokrovsk #UkraineNews #RussiaMoves #MilitaryBuildUp #WarUpdate #UkraineStrong #DefendUkraine #PutinVsZelensky #SecurityGuarantees #GlobalConflict #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #EasternEurope #UkraineDefense #WeaponsSupply #NATOAllies #Kyiv #UkraineFrontline #Lavrov #RussiaWarning #EUIntegration #FrozenAssets #UkraineVictory #StandWithUkraine Also Read Jaishankar Meets Putin in Moscow Amid Global Power Shifts :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/external-affairs-minister-s-jaishankar-holds-meeting-with-russian-president-putin-in-moscow-011-7836759.html?ref=DMDesc Amid Trump Tariffs, Jaishankar Urges Stronger India-Russia Trade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/amid-trump-tariffs-jaishankar-urges-stronger-india-russia-trade-011-7836083.html?ref=DMDesc Trump To Arrange Face-To-Face Meeting Between Putin And Ukraine's Zelenskyy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-to-arrange-face-to-face-meeting-between-putin-and-ukraines-zelenskyy-7833925.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~PR.152~

India Defies U.S Tariffs As Modi Refuses To Curb Russian Crude Imports | Trade War Escalates [Video]

India Defies U.S Tariffs As Modi Refuses To Curb Russian Crude Imports | Trade War Escalates

Washington’s high-stakes pressure campaign against India has backfired. Despite unprecedented tariffs and repeated threats over Russian oil imports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has refused to bend. Russian crude still accounts for nearly one-third of India’s imports, and refiners show no signs of slowing down. Reports suggest Modi even ignored four calls from Donald Trump, signaling India’s sovereignty is not for sale. Instead of bowing, New Delhi is deepening its BRICS diplomacy — sending top aides to Moscow, hosting Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi, and preparing for a landmark trip to China where Modi will meet Putin at the SCO summit. For the US, the outcome is bitter: higher prices for its own consumers, while India expands its strategic clout. As global power balances shift, Modi has made it clear — India won’t be bullied. #India #Modi #USTariffs #RussianOil #BRICS #China #Putin #SCO #Geopolitics #USIndia #GlobalSouth #TradeWar #Washington #Delhi #Moscow #Beijing #Trump #Zelensky #EnergyCrisis #Independence ~GR.122~HT.408~ED.194~
