A light-hearted AI-generated video featuring baby versions of world leaders stole the spotlight at the European Political Community summit in Tirana, Albania. More than 40 leaders—including Italy’s Giorgia Meloni, Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and Denmark’s Mette Frederiksen—were greeted by animated infant versions of themselves saying “Welcome to Albania” in their native languages. Italian PM Meloni burst into laughter, while Erdoğan’s baby avatar—complete with mustache—prompted a rare smile.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the Ukraine peace talks in Turkey are doomed without Trump and Putin. As leaders from Russia and Ukraine land in separate cities across Türkiye, confusion reigns over when talks will even begin. With neither Putin nor Trump in attendance, Rubio warns of a diplomatic deadlock. Trump, aboard Air Force One, echoed the sentiment, saying peace requires a direct face-off with Putin. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy slammed the Kremlin for its absence and disrespected Erdoğan, deepening tensions. Can diplomacy survive without the two biggest players at the table?

Zelensky has announced he will not personally attend the upcoming peace talks with Russia in Istanbul, opting instead to send a delegation led by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov. The decision follows a nearly three-hour closed-door meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Ankara. Zelensky cited concerns over the legitimacy of the Russian delegation—headed by Putin’s aide Vladimir Medinsky—calling it a potential “sham” with no real mandate to make decisions.

The 34th Arab League Summit in Baghdad is dominated by Gaza’s unfolding humanitarian catastrophe. Iraq’s PM labelled Israel’s actions “genocide,” pledging $40 million for Gaza and Lebanon’s reconstruction. The summit follows President Trump’s controversial Gaza remarks during his Middle East tour. Leaders including Mahmoud Abbas and UN chief Guterres demand an immediate ceasefire, aid access, and legal accountability. Spain announced plans to push the ICC to examine Israel’s compliance with aid delivery laws, intensifying diplomatic pressure. A unified Arab plan calls for Gaza’s rebuilding without displacing its 2.4 million residents.
