Zelensky IMPOSES Sanctions On Iran, Aligns With EU To Punish ‘Internal Repression’ And Terror Links

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced Ukraine is now fully aligning with European Union sanctions on Iran. In a dramatic statement, Zelenskyy accused Iran of supporting external terror campaigns, engaging in brutal domestic repression, and forging a dangerous alliance with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The move marks Kyiv’s most aggressive stance against Tehran, extending Ukraine's sanctions policy beyond Russia to its geopolitical backers. Zelenskyy labeled the Iranian government “one of the most brutal regimes in the world” and said Ukraine would contribute to targeting Iranian individuals, companies, and entities involved in both weapons production and regional destabilization. He emphasized the global importance of sanctions against both Russia and its partners. The announcement comes as Iran and Russia deepen defense ties amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict. #Zelensky #UkraineIran #IranSanctions #EUAlignment #PutinIran #RussiaWar #KyivPolitics #IranRegime #SanctionsNow #UkraineNews #Geopolitics #VolodymyrZelensky #IranCrackdown #Tehran #PutinAllies #IranRussiaTies #EUforeignpolicy #UkraineWar #MiddleEastPolitics #IranianSanctions

Ukraine’s Air Force confirmed the loss of an F-16 fighter jet and its pilot, Lt. Col. Maksym Ustimenko, during a major Russian airstrike. The jet was downed after intercepting seven Russian aerial threats. Overnight, Russia launched 537 missiles and drones; Ukraine's defense systems shot down 475.

Trump Claims Putin And Xi Now Respect America Again, Slams Biden’s ‘Incompetent’ Presidency

Russian President Vladimir Putin has called U.S. President Donald Trump a “courageous man,” saying he once again respects America under Trump’s leadership. During his visit to Belarus, Putin praised Trump for surviving last year’s assassination attempt and credited him with restoring direct U.S.-Russia communications. Trump emphasized that the wars in Ukraine and Gaza wouldn’t have happened under his presidency. Putin, speaking from Minsk, also said Trump is sincerely trying to broker peace in Ukraine. Since returning to office, Trump has reportedly spoken to Putin five times, reigniting direct channels cut off under Biden.

BREAKING: Zelensky BEGS Trump For Urgent Help After Russia’s MASSIVE 500-Drone, 60-Missile Onslaught

Following Russia’s largest aerial attack on Ukraine—over 500 drones and 60 missiles—President Zelensky has made an urgent plea to the U.S. and European allies for advanced air defense support. The strike injured civilians and destroyed residential infrastructure. Tragedy deepened with the death of Ukrainian F-16 pilot Maksym Ustymenko, who downed seven Russian targets. With three U.S.-made jets already lost, Ukraine’s air arsenal is thinning. Zelensky warns Moscow won’t stop unless its strike power is neutralized, as aid delays under Trump threaten Ukraine’s ability to defend itself. #Zelensky #UkraineRussiaWar #AirDefense #RussiaStrikes #UkraineCrisis #F16Pilot #USUkraine #MaksymUstymenko #DroneAttack #MissileStrike #RussiaUkraine #UkraineNews #UkraineUnderAttack #MilitaryAid #NATO #USPolitics #TrumpUkraine #BidenUkraine #EuropeSupport #UkraineDefense #BreakingNews #Kremlin Also Read Russia's Trainer Aircraft, Yakovlev Yak-18T, Crashes Near Moscow, 4 Dead :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russias-trainer-aircraft-yakovlev-yak-18t-crashes-near-moscow-4-dead-7785949.html?ref=DMDesc 'Many Nations Ready To Supply Tehran With Nuclear Warheads': Putin Aide As Iran’s Foreign Min Heads To Moscow :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/many-nations-ready-to-supply-tehran-with-nuclear-warheads-putin-aide-as-iran-s-foreign-min-heads-7780129.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Warns US Against Military Intervention In Iran-Israel Conflict: 'Unpredictable Consequences' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-warns-us-against-military-intervention-in-iran-israel-conflict-cautions-of-unpredictable-co-4186277.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~

Lavrov SLAMS Macron, Merz Of Reviving ‘Nazi-Era Instincts’ In Bid To Conquer Europe Again

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has launched a scathing attack on French President Emmanuel Macron and German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, accusing them of attempting to revive Europe's imperialist past. Speaking at a diplomatic event, Lavrov warned that Western leaders were reverting to their “former instincts” of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between today’s political climate and Nazi-era atrocities. He further stated that “German and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,” claiming that just as some “burned Jews,” others now “burn Russians.” Lavrov’s remarks come amid intensifying tensions between Moscow and the West over the war in Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing European militarization. The inflammatory comments are expected to draw condemnation from European capitals but are in line with Russia’s narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism. #Lavrov #Macron #Merz #RussiaEuropeTensions #Nazism #UkraineWar #GermanyPolitics #FranceNews #RussianFM #ConqueringEurope #RussianStatement #LavrovSpeech #RussiaVsWest #UkraineConflict #ModernNazism #RussianForeignMinistry #AntiWesternSentiment #RussianNarrative #EuropeanImperialism #LavrovMacronMerz ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.125~

Zelensky Urges E5 and NATO: 28,000 Iranian Drones Launched — Make This War Too Expensive for Putin

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has issued an urgent appeal to NATO and the E5 members, highlighting the unprecedented scale of Russian drone warfare. With over 28,000 Iranian-made Shahed drones launched against Ukraine since the invasion began—and 2,736 in June alone—Zelensky is demanding stronger air defense systems, economic retaliation, and full political isolation of Moscow. In a powerful address, Zelensky calls on the EU to impose a $30 oil price cap, block Russia’s shadow fleet, and make this war too expensive for Putin to sustain. Backed by soundbites and footage from the frontlines, this report dives into Ukraine’s escalating fight to defend Europe’s eastern flank. #Zelensky #UkraineWar #ShahedDrones #RussiaUkraine #NATO #IranianDrones #Putin #UkraineDefense #E5Summit #StopPutin #VolodymyrZelensky #DroneWarfare #RussiaSanctions #EUUnity #OilPriceCap Also Read Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.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.318~ED.346~PR.274~
