Putin UNVEILS Economic Revival For Donbass, Crushes U.S-Backed Peace Hopes With BOLD Plans

Russian President Vladimir Putin has dismissed the possibility of a US-brokered peace deal by announcing sweeping economic plans to rebuild Donbass and other newly integrated territories. In a bold move, Putin accused Kiev of decades of neglect, stating these regions were "abandoned" before Moscow’s intervention. Now under Russian control, he pledged a full-scale economic reboot to “unlock their full potential” and ensure locals see “real improvement.” This strategic pivot not only bolsters Russia’s hold on the contested areas but also signals defiance to Western diplomacy, especially amid growing international pressure. The timing — as Western leaders push for de-escalation — reveals Moscow’s determination to consolidate gains through infrastructure, development, and economic integration. #Putin #Donbass #RussiaUkraineWar #Donetsk #Luhansk #Crimea #RussianEconomy #USPeacePlan #UkraineConflict #KievNeglect #RussianReconstruction #WarAftermath #ProRussia #EconomicReboot #Zelensky #WesternIntervention #MoscowMoves #UkraineWarUpdate #OccupiedTerritories #RussiaNews Also Read John Mahama Sworn in as Ghana's President for Third Time Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mahama-sworn-in-as-ghana-president-third-time-economic-crisis-011-4036405.html?ref=DMDesc Chhattisgarh Leaders Remember Dr Manmohan Singh, A Giant of Economics, After His Passing :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/dr-manmohan-singh-passes-away-chhattisgarh-leaders-tribute-011-4026919.html?ref=DMDesc Manmohan Singh's Brief Pursuit of Medicine Before Embracing Economics, Revealed by Daughter Daman :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/manmohan-singh-pre-medical-course-interest-011-4026803.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

Trump’s Shocking ‘Double Standards’ Revealed On Camera | Dodges Question On US-Russia Uranium Trade [Video]

Trump’s Shocking ‘Double Standards’ Revealed On Camera | Dodges Question On US-Russia Uranium Trade

U.S. President Donald Trump was left scrambling when asked if the United States still imports uranium and fertilisers from Russia—despite threatening India over its purchases of Russian crude oil. “I don’t know anything about it,” Trump said, dodging the question during a press briefing. His remarks came as India lashed out at what it calls Western hypocrisy, citing billions of dollars worth of U.S. imports from Russia, including enriched uranium, palladium, and fertilisers. Trump has warned of “substantial” tariff hikes on Indian imports, criticizing New Delhi’s Russian energy ties. Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley also criticised Trump for giving China “a pass” while risking ties with a major ally like India. The contradiction is fuelling diplomatic tensions and raising questions over U.S. trade ethics in the Ukraine war era. India’s response underscores growing frustration in the Global South over selective enforcement of geopolitical pressure. #TrumpIndiaTariff #TrumpRussiaTrade #IndiaUSRelations #UraniumImports #DoubleStandards #RussianOil #TrumpPressBriefing #ModiTrump #TrumpOnIndia #IndiaSlamsWest #RussiaIndiaUS #TariffThreats #USImportsFromRussia #GeopoliticalTensions #TrumpCNBCInterview #HaleyVsTrump #RussiaTradeDebate #EnrichedUranium #TrumpIndiaRelations #RussiaFertiliserImports
