Ukraine has issued a stark warning to Belarus amid fears that upcoming Russia-Belarus joint military drills could escalate the war. The Zapad-2025 exercises, set for September, will feature drones, electronic warfare, and Russia’s Oreshnik hypersonic missile—previously compared to a low-yield nuclear strike. Kyiv fears Belarus may provide direct support to Russia, with the border just 100 km away. NATO has responded with 30,000 troops deployed near Poland’s border, while Moscow accuses NATO of using the drills as a pretext for escalation.

In a dramatic turn, the Kremlin has called for details of Ukraine peace talks to remain strictly confidential. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned that public debate could derail negotiations, stressing that secrecy is key to results. Analysts believe Putin is wary of European leaders—who have pledged strong security guarantees to Kyiv—and instead trusts Donald Trump as a “better negotiator.” Following Trump’s meetings with both Putin and Zelensky, speculation mounts: is Moscow sidelining Europe to cut a Trump-driven deal over Ukraine?

President Donald Trump, frustrated with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, pledged he could end the conflict “within 24 hours.” Speaking to reporters, Trump leaned pro-Russia, threatening Ukraine with sanctions and tariffs if the war continued. He issued an ultimatum to both Kyiv and Moscow: “End the war or bleed economically,” while urging Ukraine to concede land to appease Vladimir Putin. Ukraine and European leaders firmly rejected the idea. Trump insists he prefers economic pressure over risking a world war, blaming Biden for fueling the conflict.

Ukraine has received 49 Australian M1A1 Abrams tanks, significantly strengthening its armored fleet against Russian forces. Delayed for months due to U.S. clearance issues, these refurbished Abrams bring advanced firepower, superior Chobham armor, and cutting-edge targeting systems far beyond Russia’s Soviet-era T-72s. Equipped with anti-drone screens and explosive-reactive armor, they enhance survivability against modern battlefield threats. The arrival of these tanks allows Ukraine to replenish losses, support Leopard 2 and Challenger 2 fleets, and regain offensive momentum to break Russian strongholds on the ground.

Donald Trump declared that the U.S. is no longer directly paying Ukraine but instead profits from arms sales routed through NATO allies. Speaking at the White House, Trump emphasized that NATO partners fund and supply ammunition to Kyiv, while the U.S. benefits from the transactions. He praised President Zelensky, calling him “the greatest salesman,” during their second meeting this year. Trump’s remarks signal a shift in Washington’s Ukraine strategy, stressing NATO’s financial burden and America’s transactional approach to global security.

Ukraine has revealed an upgraded version of its Neptune missile, the same weapon that sank Russia’s Black Sea flagship Moskva in 2022. The new Neptune boasts a range of 1,000 km — tripling the reach of the original model — and potentially carries a warhead twice as powerful. Kyiv showcased the missile in a new Independence Day video, fueling speculation it was used in a May strike on Russia’s Novorossiysk naval port. Analysts suggest the upgrade includes larger fins, improved maneuverability, and possibly new guidance or infrared homing systems. The announcement comes as Russia parades its Oreshniks missiles, sparking a symbolic duel between Ukraine’s homegrown firepower and Putin’s arsenal. With Ukrainian production ramping up alongside the new 3,000 km Flamingo missile, Kyiv signals it no longer depends solely on Western weapons. The Neptune-Orsheniks face-off now symbolizes the technological arms race defining the Russia-Ukraine war.

Vlada however clears that the sanctions on India were nothing personal against India and only a pressure-tactic against Putin, which played a role to some extent to get the Alaska meeting in place.

During the live coverage of the historic Trump–Putin meeting in Alaska, a heated debate broke out between Burzine Waghmar SOAS, University of London, and journalist Nagen Singh of OneIndia News. Waghmar argued that Russia’s economy is overheated and claimed Putin cannot sustain the Ukraine war beyond a year. He also questioned India’s obsession with Moscow and the romanticization of Indo-Russian ties. Countering him, Singh accused the West of hypocrisy and blamed the UK and U.S. for India’s deep-rooted closeness with Russia.

South China Sea Breaking: In a significant escalation of defensive capabilities, Taiwan has officially formed its first combat-ready HIMARS rocket unit. This move is designed to strengthen deterrence against increasing threats and military pressure from China. Taiwan's Defense Minister, Wellington Koo, lauded the new unit as a "significant boost" to the island's defensive power, underscoring the strategic importance of this deployment. The soldiers operating these advanced systems have completed specialized training in the United States, highlighting the close military cooperation between Washington and Taipei.
The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) is a game-changer for Taiwan's military. It can fire six 227mm rockets or a single Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missile, the latter boasting a range of up to 300 kilometers. This impressive range means that key military and strategic targets deep within mainland China's coastal provinces are now potentially within Taiwan's strike capability. Reports suggest that Taiwan may have already acquired these long-range ATACMS missiles, a detail that is sure to alarm military planners in Beijing.
This deployment is part of a larger arms deal with the U.S., with 11 of a total 29 HIMARS systems already delivered. The move aligns with America's broader strategy to build a strong coalition in the Indo-Pacific to counter China's growing military and economic dominance. While the HIMARS system has proven its devastating effectiveness in the Ukraine conflict, analysts note that China's more advanced air defense systems could pose a greater challenge. The activation of this unit comes as Chinese military aircraft and vessels continue to cross the sensitive median line of the Taiwan Strait, prompting regular intrusion warnings from Taipei and keeping the region on high alert.
