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~

EU Chief Kill Bid: Russia Denies Trying To Kill Ursula von der Leyen In GPS Jamming Attack

Russia has firmly denied allegations of jamming GPS signals on European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s flight to Bulgaria. The incident occurred just days after von der Leyen called Putin a “predator,” sparking suspicions of deliberate interference. Her plane suffered a GPS blackout near Plovdiv Airport, forcing pilots to land using paper maps. Bulgarian authorities linked the case to rising GPS jamming across Europe, widely blamed on Russia. The scare adds new strain as von der Leyen pushes for a stronger European army to counter Moscow. #Russia #EU #UrsulaVonDerLeyen #Putin #GPSSpoofing #AirSafety #Europe #BreakingNews #FlightScare #Bulgaria #NATOTensions #AviationNews #Kremlin #DmitryPeskov #GPSJamming #VonDerLeyen #EuropeanUnion #PutinPredator #AirSecurity #SCO2025 #Geopolitics #Moscow #UkraineWar #EUvsRussia #DefenseSpending #RussiaTensions #EuropeanArmy #ChinaSummit #IndiaRussia #WestVsRussia #PlaneCrisis Also Read Russia, China Oppose 'Discriminatory Sanctions' Against BRICS Countries: Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-china-oppose-discriminatory-sanctions-against-brics-countries-putin-7846217.html?ref=DMDesc 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 ~HT.410~ED.103~

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~

BRICS vs The West: Lavrov Calls Out US 'Sanction Hypocrisy' |India & China Push For MULTIPOLAR World

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. #BRICS #Lavrov #Jaishankar #GlobalSouth #Russia #India #China #Sanctions #WesternHypocrisy #MultipolarWorld #USSanctions #Geopolitics #WorldOrder #EconomicColonialism #BRICSExpansion #GlobalPolitics #AltFinance #NewDevelopmentBank #BRICSVsG7 #AntiDollar #GlobalShift #BRICSPower #EconomicAlliance #StrategicShift #WestVsBRICS #NonAligned #TradeWars #GlobalInfluence #TechSovereignty #GlobalBalance Also Read India at the Heart of BRICS: The Pivot in a Multipolar World :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-at-the-heart-of-brics-the-pivot-in-a-multipolar-world-7825477.html?ref=DMDesc US Senator Warns India, China, Brazil of 'Severe Tariffs' Over Russian Oil Purchases :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-senator-warns-india-china-brazil-of-severe-tariffs-over-russian-oil-purchases-011-7807339.html?ref=DMDesc BRICS Leaders Push For India And Brazil's Inclusion As Permanent Members Of UN Security Council :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/brics-leaders-push-for-india-and-brazils-inclusion-as-permanent-members-of-un-security-council-7794021.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.122~
