In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan – Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Trump used India as a Pawn to pressure Putin into a Summit. 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.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia, Political Analyst Dr. Ümit Nazmi Hazır, says tat there cannot be any solution without Ukraine’s representation and Europe’s opinion too. Dr. Umit express hope that there will be a second meeting soon referring to Putin’s comments that he is ready to meet Zelensky if the conditions are right. Political Commentator Cliston Brown reiterates the meeting will not yield anything, and even as there are meetings after meetings, the war continues and that is what Putin wants.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia, Burzine Waghmar – SOAS, University of London, says that he is not very optimistic of the meeting delivering any big deals or breakthroughs in the meeting. Waghmar adds that this meeting is just a precursor to a second meeting between Putin & Trump, possibly in Moscow and even a trilateral meeting which could involve Putin, Trump and Zelensky.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan – Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Putin is running short of time and this time around Trump has called out his bluff. Vlada adds that Putin will suffer consequences as Trump is not afraid to impose secondary sanctions on Russia's largest trading partners. Vlada says that Putin is aware that he can't 'make a 'fool' out of Trump and hence there could be a breakthrough at the Summit

Elon Musk’s much-hyped new political party has reportedly stalled just two months after its launch. Sources say Musk is retreating amid GOP pushback, fearing damage to ties with Republican leadership, especially VP JD Vance. The Tesla billionaire has suspended meetings, distanced himself from allies like Andrew Yang, and shifted focus back to Republican politics. Despite once pledging millions for his own party, Musk may now redirect support toward Vance’s 2028 White House run. Critics argue Musk lacks the credibility and infrastructure to build a lasting third-party force.

A surprising twist is unfolding in U.S. politics — prominent MAGA figures are calling for Elon Musk’s return to their fold. Vice President JD Vance, strategist Roger Stone, and activists like Scott Presler are urging reconciliation despite Musk’s past feud with Donald Trump over the “Big Beautiful Bill” and his talk of forming a third party.
They say Musk’s vast resources were pivotal to Trump’s 2024 victory, and could be decisive for the 2026 midterms. MAGA Inc has already raised $177 million in 2025, but leaders see Musk as the ultimate game-changer — their “George Soros of the Right.” Musk hasn’t spoken about his “America Party” in weeks and even donated $15 million to the GOP in June. He has recently supported Trump’s calls to federalize D.C. policing. The push for a full political reunion is intensifying.

In a chilling development, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev declared that Moscow is no longer bound by its self-imposed moratorium on deploying medium- and short-range missiles — a move that signals a sharp escalation in its confrontation with NATO. Citing “the result of NATO’s anti-Russian policy,” Medvedev warned the West to brace for “further steps,” calling this aggressive shift a “new reality” that Russia’s opponents must face. This policy shift paves the way for the Kremlin to deploy ground-based missile systems previously banned under the now-defunct INF Treaty. Moscow’s decision has sparked fears across Europe and the U.S. of a renewed arms race and heightened global instability. The announcement comes amid rising tensions over Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing military drills along Russian borders. As Russia signals its readiness to respond forcefully, the geopolitical chessboard enters dangerous new territory.

Typhoon Podul slammed into Taiwan’s Taitung County on Wednesday, forcing school and government office closures across nine cities, including Kaohsiung and Tainan. Moving at 36 km/h toward the Taiwan Strait and China, the storm triggered over 380 flight cancellations and the evacuation of more than 5,500 residents from vulnerable areas. Authorities warned of up to 600 mm of rainfall in mountain regions, risking floods and landslides. Hong Kong issued a Signal One warning, while China’s Fujian Province braces for Podul’s impact later this week.

The Indian Army has denied claims made by ULFA-I of a cross-border drone strike on its Myanmar headquarters that allegedly killed 19 cadres. Defence PRO Mahendra Rawat said the Army has no inputs confirming any such operation. Sources suggest the attack may stem from infighting among militant groups. ULFA-I leader Paresh Baruah remains elusive near the tri-junction with ISI support. With Myanmar’s border regions in turmoil, Indian officials remain concerned over insurgent activity and the exploitation of the porous border.
