Trump says US will 'take a pass' on Ukraine peace efforts if Russia refuses to play ball
Friday, 18 April 2025 () The Trump administration made clear it will abandon peace attempts for Ukraine if Russia fails to adhere to any terms, but the president did not say whether there would be consequences.
Trump has threatened to withdraw the United States from ongoing Ukraine peace negotiations if key demands are not met. Speaking at a press conference, Trump said, “We’ll take a pass,” if the talks continue to favor what he described as a “one-sided” approach benefiting Ukraine. His warning...
US President Donald Trump has announced sweeping secondary sanctions targeting nations buying Iranian oil or petrochemicals. Any business dealing with Iran’s energy sector now risks losing access to US markets. The move escalates pressure amid faltering nuclear talks and rising tensions in the Middle East. Trump’s administration accuses Tehran of fueling regional conflict and violating past nuclear accords. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has also warned of military consequences. Talks have stalled after three rounds, while Iran insists it won’t be coerced into an unfair deal.

The Trump administration has pledged to spend another 100 days to secure a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine. US Vice President J.D. Vance confirmed the push, noting both sides are finally talking. Despite earlier ceasefires, tensions remain over disputed regions and NATO demands. Trump’s envoy claims Kyiv is softening its stance, but Ukraine continues to resist territorial concessions. As diplomacy inches forward, Moscow demands an end to mobilization and foreign arms support. Washington’s patience may be running thin if no breakthrough emerges from this crucial diplomatic window.

The White House Deal that once erupted into global headlines during the Trump-Zelensky Oval Office clash has now evolved into a high-stakes mineral agreement. After months of icy diplomacy, the White House Deal has transitioned from political pressure to economic leverage. At the core of this White House Deal is Ukraine’s untapped treasure—titanium, lithium, and uranium—strategic resources now accessed by the U.S. in exchange for continued military aid. This analysis unpacks the hidden costs of the White House Deal, the geopolitical muscle behind it, and the resource war that could shape the future of U.S.-Ukraine-Russia relations.

Over 3,000 vehicles snarled traffic on the Kerch Bridge linking occupied Crimea with mainland Russia, creating an 8-mile gridlock during the May holidays. Drivers waited up to 6 hours at Russian checkpoints, as security forces ramped up inspections amid fears of a new Ukrainian strike. Ukraine’s military intelligence agency, HUR, has warned of a third and potentially “devastating” attempt to destroy the bridge — a strategic and symbolic link for the Kremlin.
