Russia Elections: Putin’s challenger, Boris Nadezhdin, submits presidential bid in Russia | Oneindia
Boris Nadezhdin, a prominent challenger to the Kremlin, asserts that he has successfully gathered a sufficient number of signatures to officially run as a candidate in the upcoming Russian presidential election.
Renowned for his candid criticisms of President Putin and Russia's intervention in Ukraine, the former local councillor affirms that he has submitted well over the mandated 100,000 signatures to the electoral authorities.
The next step involves the electoral commission reviewing his application for candidacy.
Russia and Ukraine exchanged massive overnight drone attacks just days before the planned Trump-Putin peace summit in Alaska. Ukraine’s air force reported Russia launched 100 drones, 70 of which were intercepted, while 30 struck 12 locations. Russia claimed to have downed 126 Ukrainian drones in the same period. One person was killed in Saratov when a drone struck near a residential building, damaging an industrial site.
Ukraine confirmed the attack targeted a major oil refinery supplying Russian forces. August has seen a surge in Ukrainian drone operations, while Russia’s aerial assault remains intense. The violence unfolds as both sides maneuver diplomatically ahead of Friday’s high-profile meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, a summit that could shift the trajectory of the war.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has reportedly not been invited to the upcoming Trump–Putin peace summit in Alaska on August 15, raising concerns of a diplomatic sidelining. White House sources say the meeting will focus on U.S.–Russia dialogue at Moscow’s request. While Trump has floated territorial swaps as a path to peace, Zelensky rejects the idea, citing constitutional limits. The Kremlin insists talks must address Crimea and four regions annexed in 2022, while Ukraine refuses any concessions, leaving negotiations at an impasse.

Just days before Donald Trump’s planned high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin, European allies have thrown a wrench into his peace plan. Leaders of the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Finland, and the EU issued a joint statement insisting that any talks with Russia must involve Ukraine’s leadership. President Zelensky has rejected Trump’s suggestion of possible territorial swaps, calling any deal made without Ukraine “dead decisions.” With Putin still refusing direct talks with Kyiv, tensions rise as the White House faces backlash over reports of concessions on Crimea and Donbas.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is urgently rallying European leaders ahead of Donald Trump’s high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin. Speaking with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Zelensky warned of “the danger of Russia’s plan” to force Ukraine into discussing the “impossible” — territorial exchanges that would favor Moscow’s future war ambitions.
While Trump is expected to sit down with Putin soon, Zelensky is pushing for maximum coordination with the UK, US, EU, and other allies to secure a “truly lasting peace” and avoid any deal that simply reconfigures the conflict. He also emphasized Ukraine’s progress toward EU membership, warning that Russia has not shifted its stance on ending the war and continues to fuel the fighting.

The White House is considering inviting Volodymyr Zelenskyy to a meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska, according to reports in the US. Sky News
In a stunning shift, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signaled readiness for peace talks with Russia, saying “it’s time to end the war.” His call for a “dignified peace” comes amid a confirmed Trump-Putin summit soon and ongoing Russian strikes. Zelensky proposed bilateral or trilateral summits and urged Moscow to match Ukraine’s courage. The Kremlin, however, questions Zelensky’s legitimacy, citing expired terms and lack of elections. With Putin-Trump talks expected soon, the path to peace now faces high-stakes political hurdles.

Putin has lashed out at U.S. President Donald Trump over his threat to impose higher tariffs on India if it continues buying Russian oil. The Kremlin condemned the move as “illegal” and an attack on national sovereignty, warning Washington against pressuring its allies. Putin emphasized that India has the right to choose its trade partners, while New Delhi dismissed Trump’s warnings as “unjustified” and accused the West of hypocrisy for continuing its own trade with Russia.

Russia has issued a stark new warning to the United States over what it calls an alarming surge in US missile systems positioned in regions with a “direct impact” on Russia’s security. Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov declared that Moscow is abandoning its self-imposed moratorium on missile deployments in response, accusing Washington of pushing the situation toward dangerous escalation.
Ryabkov also hinted at the existence of other advanced Russian weapons beyond the newly unveiled Oreshnik missile system, saying only that “we did not waste time” in preparing them. He refused to disclose further details, adding to the intrigue surrounding Russia’s military capabilities. The statement underscores Moscow’s growing unease over NATO-linked deployments near its borders and sets the stage for a new era of military posturing. With tensions already heightened by the Ukraine conflict, this latest warning raises the risk of an intensified arms race between the world’s largest nuclear powers.

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.
