Russian strikes have killed 8 people and injured 35 across Ukraine just as President Zelensky arrived in Washington, D.C., for a high-stakes meeting with President Trump. Moscow continues to reject calls for an unconditional ceasefire, intensifying its use of drones and missiles. Cities near the Russian border, as well as the Sumy region, were hit, leaving civilians trapped under rubble and hospitals overwhelmed. The attacks come as Zelensky and European allies push for peace, while Russia demands territorial concessions, raising tensions ahead of the crucial summit.

US President Donald Trump has delivered a blunt message to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ahead of their White House meeting. Trump declared that Ukraine must abandon its NATO ambitions and accept the loss of Crimea if it truly wants peace with Russia. The ultimatum comes just days after Trump’s Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin, which he admitted brought “little progress” toward ending the war. With Zelensky under mounting pressure and European allies resisting Trump’s terms, Washington is bracing for a high-stakes clash that could reshape the future of the Ukraine war.

President Donald Trump has nominated State Department spokesperson and longtime Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce as the next U.S. deputy representative to the United Nations. Bruce, a fierce defender of Trump’s “America First” policies, has served as State Department spokesperson since his inauguration in January. Known for defending the administration’s tough stances on immigration, Russia’s war in Ukraine, and Israel’s Gaza offensive, Bruce is expected to bring combative rhetoric to the UN stage.
Her appointment will require Senate confirmation, where Republicans hold a majority. Trump praised her “fantastic job” at State, while Bruce called the role an honor and vowed to continue advancing U.S. priorities abroad. She will serve under Mike Waltz, Trump’s pick for UN envoy, whose confirmation is pending. The move signals Trump’s push for loyalist voices in high-profile diplomatic posts at a time of intense geopolitical tensions.

In a scathing rebuke, top Trump aide Stephen Miller has accused India of "financing Russia’s war in Ukraine" by continuing to import oil from Moscow. Speaking on Fox News, Miller expressed alarm over India’s near-parity with China in buying Russian crude — calling it an “astonishing fact.” This comes after President Trump, escalating economic pressure, imposed a 25% tariff on Indian goods and warned of a potential 100% tariff on imports from countries dealing with Russia.
Indian officials, however, remain firm on maintaining ties with Moscow for oil purchases. The Indian Embassy in Washington has not responded, but sources told Reuters that New Delhi will not bow to threats. Miller noted Trump's "tremendous" relationship with PM Modi, but the strong rhetoric signals a shift. The stakes are high, and tensions are brewing as Trump's foreign policy sharpens its focus on global alignments.

Donald Trump’s approval ratings have hit a second-term low across major polls. Reuters/Ipsos shows just 40% support, while Gallup reports 37%. Even traditionally favorable outlets like Fox News show net disapproval. Swing states such as Florida, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin report negative ratings, with Trump underwater in 13 of 31 states he won in 2024. Key issues include dissatisfaction over his tariff policies and handling of the Epstein case. Voters give him mixed marks on the economy and immigration.

The United States has temporarily lifted certain sanctions on Russian transactions to facilitate historic peace talks in Alaska between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin on Aug. 15. The move, authorized by the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, allows specific transactions otherwise banned under Russia-related sanctions—strictly for organizing the summit.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may join follow-up discussions, with Trump expected to push Putin toward a Ukraine ceasefire. Reports suggest Trump will offer an economic package including access to Alaska’s natural resources, easing aviation sanctions, and rare earth mineral rights in occupied Ukrainian territories. The temporary authorization expires Aug. 20, with the White House calling the meeting a “listening exercise” and a potential breakthrough.

India has doubled down on its decision to continue purchasing discounted Russian crude oil despite U.S. President Donald Trump's remarks suggesting New Delhi may halt such imports. Indian state-owned refiners reaffirmed that sourcing oil from Russia remains a strategic, price-driven choice essential for the country’s energy security, given its 85% crude import dependence. Officials emphasized that Russian oil is not under international sanctions and purchases comply with the G7/EU price cap mechanism, ensuring global markets remain liquid and prices stable. Sources argue that India's imports prevented oil prices from soaring above the March 2022 peak of $137 a barrel amid OPEC+ cuts. Meanwhile, reports of suspended purchases were dismissed, with officials highlighting the EU’s own high intake of Russian LNG. India insists its decisions are guided by national interest while contributing positively to global energy stability, even as Washington hints at possible penalties.

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch said: “We just heard that inflation is up again, the worst in the G7. We left him with 2% inflation. We have borrowing up, unemployment up, taxes are up (..) his budget last year had high taxes. That’s why the economy is contracting.” Sir Keir Starmer replied: “I think of the working people across this country who put in every day and don’t get back what they deserve, and that’s who we’re working for. That’s who we’re fixing the country (for).”

The geopolitical stage is set for a major confrontation as the BRICS alliance prepares for its 2025 summit in Brazil. The bloc, which will include ten member nations, is openly challenging the long-standing economic hegemony of the United States. With members like China, Russia, and Brazil leading the charge, BRICS now represents a formidable force, accounting for 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP. The group's primary objective is to reduce its dependency on the U.S. dollar by promoting trade in local currencies and developing alternative financial systems.
The tension has escalated dramatically following a direct threat from former U.S. President Donald Trump. He warned that any nation aligning with BRICS' anti-dollar policies would face severe consequences, including a blanket 10% tariff with "no exceptions." This aggressive stance is a clear signal that the U.S. views the rise of BRICS as a direct threat to its ability to impose sanctions and control global financial networks like SWIFT.
In response to the mounting criticism and Trump's threats, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Mao Ning, has publicly pushed back. While rejecting claims that BRICS is an "anti-American" coalition, she firmly stated that the mechanism is not targeted at any single country. However, she also reiterated China's long-standing opposition to "tariff wars and trade wars," sending a clear message to Washington. This high-stakes diplomatic battle between the established G7 powers and the rising BRICS alliance could reshape the future of the global economy.

Trump Vs BRICS: In a move set to rattle global markets, former President Donald Trump has issued a severe warning to the BRICS nations and their allies. He threatens to impose a blanket 10% tariff on any country adopting what he terms "anti-American" policies backed by the bloc. This declaration comes after the 2025 BRICS Summit in Brazil, where the member nations, now numbering ten, issued a joint condemnation of recent US-Israel strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, calling them "illegal."
The BRICS bloc, now representing 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP, has become a significant geopolitical force. In their summit, they also criticized the West's "double standards" on global terror, specifically citing the Pahalgam attack in Kashmir as an example. This direct reference brings the conflict to India's doorstep. Trump claims the tariff letters for 12 countries are already "signed and ready," though sources suggest this could be a strategic bluff to test the bloc's unity.
This escalating tension is rooted in BRICS's core mission: to reduce dependence on the U.S. dollar. With their internal trade hitting $1 trillion in 2025 through local currency systems, the bloc, heavily influenced by China and Russia, is seen as a direct challenge to America's sanctions power and its dominance via institutions like the IMF and G7. For Trump, the bloc's growing anti-West stance and expanding economic influence represents a primary threat to American global leadership, setting the stage for a potential economic war.
