VIDEO: Marco Rubio Jokes Jaishankar’s Busy Schedule | Indian Foreign Minister Responds

Rubio’s Funny Banter About Jaishankar at QUAD Meet Goes Viral | Jaishankar Scolds US Over Terrorism At the QUAD Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in Washington D.C., U.S. Secretary Marco Rubio jokingly called Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar a “very busy guy,” noting his constant travel. Jaishankar, alongside diplomats from Japan, Australia, and the U.S., took a firm stance on global terrorism—referencing the recent Pahalgam attack. He warned against equating victims and perpetrators, subtly addressing U.S. policy on Pakistan. The QUAD emphasized Indo-Pacific security, while Jaishankar also met with U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to deepen bilateral defense ties, calling the partnership one of the “most consequential” today. #Jaishankar #MarcoRubio #QUAD #IndiaUSRelations #IndoPacific #ForeignPolicy #PahalgamAttack #GlobalTerrorism #SJaishankar #PeteHegseth #USIndiaDefense #Diplomacy #Geopolitics #QUADSummit #Australia #Japan #India #UnitedStates #InternationalRelations #StrategicPartnership #DefenseTies #SouthAsiaSecurity #RubioJokes #BusyDiplomat Also Read US Secretary Of State Marco Rubio Speaks To S Jaishankar, Pak PM To De-Escalate Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-secretary-of-state-marco-rubio-speaks-to-s-jaishankar-pak-pm-to-de-escalate-tensions-4140111.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk-Marco Rubio Clash Over Staff Cuts In Explosive Meeting In Trump's Presence; US Prez Denies Blow Up :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-marco-rubio-clash-over-staff-cuts-in-explosive-meeting-in-trumps-presence-us-prez-denies-4089603.html?ref=DMDesc

Hegseth Explodes Media Coverage on Iran Strikes: Accuses of Rooting Against Trump, Ignoring Heroism

In a fiery Pentagon briefing, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lashed out at the media, accusing them of "cheering against Trump" and downplaying the success of Operation Midnight Hammer — a bold series of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear sites. Hegseth defended the mission’s results, slammed leaks of low-confidence intelligence reports, and praised the courage of American pilots and defense crews. With tensions high and politics in play, the Secretary warned that biased reporting could overshadow what he called a “historic” blow to Iran’s nuclear ambitions. #Hegseth #IranStrikes #TrumpNews #PentagonBriefing #USAirstrikes #OperationMidnightHammer #MediaBias #PeteHegseth #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #USvsIran #TrumpAdministration #MilitaryNews #DefenseDepartment Also Read Sajindas Devidas Reveals How AI-Driven Nudges Are Quietly Redefining User Behavior :: https://www.oneindia.com/in-the-news/sajindas-devidas-reveals-how-ai-driven-nudges-are-quietly-redefining-user-behavior-4166947.html?ref=DMDesc Power Of Reusability: Creating Configurable Payroll Rules That Scale Across Modules" By Rajagopal Arputham :: https://www.oneindia.com/in-the-news/the-power-of-reusability-creating-configurable-payroll-rules-that-scale-across-modules-by-rajagopal-4164205.html?ref=DMDesc article testing new :: https://www.oneindia.com/temp/article-testing-new-4058241.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~PR.152~GR.122~

'If U.S Bases Hit..':Trump's Final Warning to Iran After Haifa Burnt To Ashes|U.S Army Joins Israel? [Video]

'If U.S Bases Hit..':Trump's Final Warning to Iran After Haifa Burnt To Ashes|U.S Army Joins Israel?

In a bold Truth Social post, Donald Trump warned Iran not to target U.S. military bases following Israeli strikes on Iranian defense HQs and oil facilities. While denying U.S. involvement in the overnight attacks, Trump issued a stark threat of overwhelming military force if Iran retaliates. Simultaneously, he claimed he could “easily” broker peace between Israel and Iran. As exchanges intensify—marked by Iran’s use of the Fattah-1 hypersonic missile—fears of a wider war escalate across the region. #Trump #IranAttack #TelAvivUnderAttack #IranIsraelConflict #MissileStrike #TelAvivExplosions #IsraelIranWar #IronDome #IDF #MiddleEastCrisis #TehranRetaliation #AyatollahKhamenei #IsraelDefense #TelAvivMissiles #IranMissileStrike #IsraelUnderFire #TelAvivSkyline #MilitaryTensions #IDFHeadquarters #IsraelVsIran #BreakingNews #MissileDefense #IsraelNews #IranNews #WarUpdates #TelAvivAttack #GeopoliticalTensions #IsraelStrikesIran #IranStrikesBack #LiveMissileFootage ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.124~

USS Nimitz: U.S’ Flagship Aircraft Carrier Heads West | Israel’s Power Boosted | Headache for Iran

The U.S. appears to be stepping directly into the escalating Israel-Iran conflict, deploying its aircraft carrier USS Nimitz toward the Persian Gulf. The carrier’s Vietnam port call was abruptly cancelled due to “emergent operational requirements,” sparking speculation of heightened American military readiness. While the U.S. denies involvement in Israel’s June 13 strikes, Trump admitted American-supplied systems were key. Iran has accused the U.S. of enabling Israeli attacks and warned that strikes on U.S. bases would be considered an act of war. #USNavy #USSNimitz #IsraelIranConflict #BreakingNews #MiddleEastTensions #PersianGulf #RedSea #USMilitary #Trump #USBases #IranNuclear #IsraelStrikes #IranAccusesUS #AircraftCarrier #USDeployments #Geopolitics #USIranTensions #WarFooting #MarineTraffic #USSupportToIsrael #MilitaryEscalation #EmergencyDeployment #DanangVisitCancelled #AbbasAraghchi #GlobalCrisis #MilitaryPosture #USIsraelAlliance #IranWarWarning #NavalPower #USStrikeGroup Also Read Israeli Missile Hit Iran's TV Studio During Live Bulletin; Video Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-missile-hit-irans-tv-studio-during-live-bulletin-video-goes-viral-4183489.html?ref=DMDesc G7 Backs Israel, Says Tel Aviv Has Right To Self-defence; No Nukes To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/g7-backs-israel-says-tel-aviv-has-right-to-self-defence-no-nukes-to-iran-4183393.html?ref=DMDesc Khawaja Asif: Pakistan Made ‘No Such Commitment’ To Iran On Israel Nuclear Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/khawaja-asif-pakistan-made-no-such-commitment-to-iran-on-israel-nuclear-strike-4183025.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~
