On January 30, officials from the United States
and China met to discuss a joint effort to take action
on stemming the flow of fentanyl into the U.S.
'TIME' reports that the meeting comes as a sign
of cooperation between the two global powers
to manage the ongoing fentanyl crisis.
The new counternarcotics working group met for
their first two-day meeting, focusing on ingredients
for the synthetic opioid that are manufactured in China.
In November of 2023, Chinese President Xi Jinping agreed
to resume cooperation on combating drug trafficking in a
meeting with U.S. President Joe Biden in San Francisco.

The U.S. is looking for China to increase efforts
to curb the export of chemicals that are processed
into fentanyl before being smuggled into the U.S.
'TIME' reports that synthetic opioids like
fentanyl have emerged as the deadliest
killers in the ongoing U.S. drug crisis.
According to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, over 100,000 deaths
were linked to drug overdoses in 2022.
Over two-thirds of those overdoses were linked
with fentanyl or other similar synthetic opioids.
In exchange for cooperation on combating the flow of
fentanyl, the U.S. agreed to lift sanctions imposed on
China in 2020 over human rights violations against Uyghurs.

For the first time since taking power, Chinese President Xi Jinping is skipping the BRICS Summit, sending Premier Li Qiang to Rio de Janeiro in his place. Xi’s absence raises questions amid global trade turmoil and U.S. tariff threats. While China remains committed to the BRICS vision, experts say Xi may be prioritizing domestic challenges over diplomacy this year. Li is expected to strengthen energy ties and promote digital currency cooperation as BRICS expands and positions itself against Western dominance.

China’s President Xi Jinping has approved new Communist Party rules that could signal a shift in leadership dynamics. The Politburo’s move to standardize policymaking and delegate daily responsibilities has sparked speculation about a potential post-Xi transition. While experts caution that this isn’t a power handover, the increasing roles of senior leaders like Li Qiang, Ding Xuexiang, and Cai Qi suggest Xi may be stepping back from micromanagement. Analysts view this as an effort to institutionalize governance amid growing national and global challenges.

At least 82 people are dead, including 28 children, after catastrophic floods swept through central Texas. As rescue teams search for 11 missing girls last seen at Camp Mystic, Donald Trump deflects responsibility, calling the tragedy a “Biden setup” and brushing off questions about slashed FEMA and weather budgets. Entire communities were engulfed as the Guadalupe River surged 26 feet in just 45 minutes.

The Russia-Ukraine war has entered a brutal new phase. In July 2025, Russia unleashed its largest-ever aerial assault on Kyiv, a sign of its growing dominance on the battlefield. But how did we get here? This in-depth report from Oneindia News examines the seismic shifts that have given Vladimir Putin the upper hand after years of stalemate.
The primary catalyst was the 2024 U.S. election and the return of Donald Trump. We analyze how Trump's "America First" policy led to a complete halt in military aid to Ukraine, a stark contrast to the billions pumped in under the Joe Biden administration. From Trump's vow to end the war in "24 hours" to backchannel talks with Moscow, his actions effectively isolated Kyiv and gave Russia a green light to escalate its offensive.
Beyond the White House, Russia itself has adapted. Learning from early failures, Moscow embraced a brutal war of attrition, bolstered by massive support from allies like North Korea and Iran, and an economic lifeline from China. With 450,000 new recruits in 2024, Russia’s overwhelming manpower is crushing Ukrainian defenses. Meanwhile, Ukraine is facing a catastrophic crisis of its own. With its military stretched thin, a severe shortage of soldiers and ammunition, and war fatigue setting in, the nation's survival hangs in the balance. Despite innovative tactics like the "Operation Spider's Web" drone strikes, can President Zelenskyy's forces survive without robust Western support?
This video explains the intricate web of geopolitics, military strategy, and leadership changes that define the current state of the war. As Russia pushes forward, we ask the critical question: Is Ukraine's defeat now inevitable?

The Pentagon has confirmed it is conducting a “capability review” to reassess whether military aid to Ukraine aligns with America’s shifting defense priorities. Chief spokesperson Sean Parnell said the U.S. is taking a hard look at promised weapons deliveries — some of which are now halted — to ensure national interests come first. The move follows the White House’s decision to stop key shipments of air defense ammunition, artillery shells, and missiles previously pledged under the Biden administration.
With President Trump’s “America First” policy reshaping foreign aid strategy, the Pentagon appears to be pivoting away from prolonged foreign entanglements. Ukrainian officials have slammed the halt as betrayal, warning it weakens their resistance against Russia’s advances. Meanwhile, analysts say this could signal a major realignment in U.S. global commitments — and a boost for Russian military strategy. Is Washington walking away from Kyiv?

Tensions between the United States and Iran have escalated once again after Tehran suspended cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) following US and Israeli strikes on its nuclear facilities. US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce called Iran’s move "unacceptable" and urged Tehran to resume full cooperation under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
In this video, we break down what led to the latest nuclear standoff, the implications of Iran possibly exiting the NPT, the frozen US-Iran nuclear talks, and what Donald Trump and Biden are saying about sanctions and diplomacy. Will Iran return to the negotiating table, or are we on the brink of a new nuclear crisis?
Stay tuned as we unpack the geopolitical stakes, regional fallout, and what this means for global non-proliferation efforts.

A federal court has struck down Donald Trump’s attempt to prematurely end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for over 500,000 Haitian immigrants. The judge ruled the move unlawful, citing procedural violations and the devastating impact on lives built under TPS. The Biden administration had extended protections until 2026 due to Haiti’s ongoing crisis, including gang violence and displacement. The ruling is a major setback for Trump’s deportation agenda and underscores judicial resistance to rolling back immigration relief programs.

Ahead of the United States' Independence Day celebrations, federal agencies have issued a serious warning about potential terrorist attacks, specifically from lone wolf actors. This elevated threat level is a direct consequence of escalating tensions in the Middle East, where the U.S. has become more involved in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict. The situation intensified after U.S. B-2 Spirit bombers conducted a major operation on June 22, dropping heavy bunker buster bombs on three of Iran's nuclear facilities in a strategic move to aid Israel.
In response to the potential for retaliatory attacks, security has been visibly bolstered across the country. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has identified lone wolves as the "greatest threat" to July 4th events, announcing an increased presence of State Police and the deployment of National Guard units at major transportation hubs, bridges, and tunnels throughout New York City. Authorities are also closely monitoring social media for any signs of cyber threats or domestic terror plots.
The threat is not limited to New York. An FBI bulletin has specifically warned that San Francisco's famous fireworks show could be a target for a mass casualty attack. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has officially raised the national threat level to "Heightened" and stated it will remain in effect until September 22, citing the direct link to the escalating conflict between Iran and the U.S. While no specific or credible plots have been identified, federal and state agencies remain on high alert to counter any security situation that may arise during the holiday.

With 1,800+ protests planned for Saturday to counter Trump’s military parade, the U.S. braces for a weekend of unprecedented resistance.

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.
