In a striking display of diplomatic unity, Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan declared that Riyadh welcomes Russia’s role in Middle Eastern affairs during a high-profile press conference with Russian FM Sergey Lavrov in Moscow. The comment signals a major shift in Gulf geopolitics, showing Saudi Arabia's increasing tilt toward Moscow as regional dynamics evolve. Lavrov and Farhan met at the Russian MFA Reception House, emphasizing cooperation on regional security, energy, and investment. Farhan praised Russia’s involvement as “always welcome,” underlining a growing partnership despite global Western efforts to isolate Moscow. The press conference further confirms Russia's expanding clout in the Gulf as the Kremlin strengthens alliances outside the West. The talks come amid heightened tensions in the region, and suggest Saudi Arabia is now playing a more independent, multi-vector diplomatic game — balancing its ties between Washington, Moscow, and Beijing.

The U.S. State Department has responded sharply to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s claim that increased NATO defense spending will lead to the alliance’s collapse. Lavrov criticized the West's growing military budgets, warning it will destabilize Europe. The U.S. rejected the remarks, stating that enhanced European defense spending strengthens regional security and counters Russian aggression. As tensions rise, President Putin accuses NATO of hypocrisy, claiming these moves will ultimately harm the continent. The transatlantic alliance shows no signs of retreating under Russian pressure.

Mass protests erupt in Serbia’s capital, Belgrade, as over 140,000 people—led by university students—demand snap elections and the resignation of President Aleksandar Vučić after 12 years in power. Riot police fired tear gas and arrested dozens during violent street clashes that have rocked Slavija Square for hours.
Russia has now entered the fray: Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warns the West to stay out of Serbia’s internal affairs, denouncing attempts to trigger a “color revolution.” With the memory of Novi Sad’s deadly station collapse still fresh, the protest movement is surging—and Moscow is watching.
Is Serbia on the edge of political transformation—or foreign interference?

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.

Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has accused the UK of playing a direct role in Ukraine’s alleged terrorist attacks inside Russia. Speaking at the 'Forum of the Future 2050' in Moscow, Lavrov said Ukraine would be “helpless” without British assistance, citing deadly sabotage incidents and coordinated drone strikes across Russian territory. Lavrov claimed the U.S. has pulled back, leaving Britain “100%” involved. The UK has declined to comment on operational matters, while Moscow’s ambassador to London also pointed to UK-supplied geospatial data as key to recent attacks.

US President Donald Trump has described Russian President Vladimir Putin as “a professional” who has effectively handled Western sanctions amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict. The remarks followed a one-hour phone call between the two leaders where Trump pressed Putin on ending the war. While acknowledging Moscow’s resilience, Trump hinted that tougher sanctions may be on the way if the conflict continues.
The Kremlin reaffirmed its stance, insisting it would not back down from core goals. Meanwhile, a bipartisan bill in the US Senate proposes a staggering 500% tariff on imports from nations buying Russian energy, escalating the economic pressure. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed the bill’s backer, Senator Lindsey Graham, as a “Russophobe,” while reiterating Russia’s view that sanctions are illegal and counterproductive. Despite mounting restrictions since 2014, Russia claims its economy has adjusted and domestic industries have strengthened. The geopolitical standoff shows no signs of cooling.

As US-Israeli strikes escalate tensions, Macron urged Putin to ensure Iran complies with international norms.

In a powerful display of Russian resolve, President Vladimir Putin reaffirmed Moscow’s strategic objectives during a one-hour phone call with US President Donald Trump. Despite Trump expressing disappointment over the lack of progress on a peace deal, the Kremlin stood its ground, making clear that Russia’s military and political goals in Ukraine remain unchanged. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov emphasized that Moscow seeks peace—but only on its own terms.
He added that Russia is paying close attention to Trump’s statements but is prioritizing long-term national interests. The call also covered cooperation in energy and space sectors, as well as Middle East stability. Putin reiterated that Russia would not compromise on neutralizing the threats that triggered the special military operation. The Kremlin described the conversation as “concrete and businesslike,” signaling that Moscow will continue to engage diplomatically, but without sacrificing its core objectives. Russia remains open to talks—but not surrender.

In a historic and controversial move, Russia has become the first nation to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. The announcement was met with cautious optimism on the streets of Kabul, where many Afghans are now urging neighboring powers like Iran, Pakistan, and India to “choose friendship” over continued conflict. Locals say the recognition brings hope for stability, economic revival, and an end to international isolation. “War brings only destruction. We want peace and cooperation,” said Ahmad Zia Popal, a Kabul resident. The Taliban, still sanctioned by the West and condemned for its human rights record—especially on women’s rights—called Russia’s decision “courageous” and a model for others. While global criticism looms, many ordinary Afghans see this as a turning point. Moscow’s move also raises geopolitical questions as it deepens its footprint in the region amid growing tensions with the West.
