US President Donald Trump welcomes his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to Alaska on Friday for talks aiming to bring about a ceasefire and ultimately an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine. Noticeably absent from the meeting in Anchorage is Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelenskyy. However, Europe’s leaders have expressed cautious optimism about the prospect of a truce.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov downplayed Donald Trump’s prediction that there is a 25% chance the upcoming Alaska summit with President Vladimir Putin could fail. Speaking ahead of the high-stakes talks, Lavrov said Russia would not engage in forecasting outcomes, emphasizing that Moscow has “arguments and a clear, definite position” ready for the meeting.
He credited U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, Trump’s close associate, with laying much of the groundwork for the discussions and expressed hope that negotiations would continue into the next day. The Anchorage talks, already under global scrutiny, come at a time of tense U.S.-Russia relations and ongoing war in Ukraine. While Trump has framed the meeting as a potential breakthrough, Lavrov’s remarks signal confidence in Russia’s approach and suggest Moscow is prepared to stand firm. The world now watches to see if the dialogue will ease tensions or widen the divide.

Just hours before his highly anticipated face-to-face with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, President Donald Trump has set off a political firestorm with one of his most explosive statements yet on the Ukraine war. Hinting at a major policy shift, Trump’s remarks are fueling speculation that he may be ready to scale back U.S. support for Kyiv — a move critics say could hand Moscow a strategic victory and leave Ukraine out in the cold. The timing, so close to the summit, has only amplified the shockwaves rippling through Washington, Kyiv, and global diplomatic circles.

Ukraine is facing its worst manpower crisis since the start of the war with Russia, with The Telegraph reporting that at least 650,000 fighting-age men have fled the country since 2022. Many others are hiding within Ukraine or bribing officials to avoid conscription. The draft evasion problem is spiraling as Russian forces push forward in Donetsk, with military analysts warning of severe infantry shortages and failing drone operations.
Reports suggest desertions have surged to nearly 400,000, while disturbing videos show Ukrainian draft officers violently detaining men in what locals call “busification.” Even support roles like mechanics and radar operators are being reassigned to frontline combat. Thousands have attempted dangerous border escapes, some ending in fatalities. Ukrainian commanders warn the situation is becoming unsustainable, threatening the country’s ability to continue the fight.

Cambodia is set to nominate U.S. President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, crediting his pivotal role in negotiating a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand after a deadly five-day border conflict. Cambodia’s Deputy Prime Minister Sun Chanthol hailed Trump’s “great efforts for peace,” saying his intervention — including threats to pull out of trade talks — forced both Southeast Asian nations to come to the negotiating table.
The ceasefire, brokered in Malaysia, ended the region’s worst violence in over a decade, which left at least 43 people dead and displaced over 300,000. Trump said the war “would have turned nasty,” but was halted by leveraging trade diplomacy. This marks Trump’s third recent Nobel recommendation, following nominations by Israel and Pakistan for mediating other global crises. The Cambodian leader also praised Trump for reducing tariffs on Cambodian exports, sparing the nation’s garment and footwear sector from economic collapse.

Clashes between Thailand and Cambodia have entered their fourth day, despite U.S. President Trump’s warnings to halt the conflict. Over 30 people, including civilians, have been killed as fighting intensifies, with reports of Thailand using cluster bombs. Cambodia plans to drag Thailand to the UN over war crimes allegations. In a surprising diplomatic shift, both countries have agreed to let Malaysia mediate the crisis, sidelining the U.S. This move signals a regional realignment as Washington’s influence is challenged in Southeast Asia.
During a visit to Scotland, Donald Trump revealed he had spoken with the leaders of Thailand and Cambodia, urging an immediate ceasefire amid rising border tensions. Trump warned both governments that continued conflict would halt any future U.S. trade deals. Under U.S. pressure, Cambodian and Thai leaders agreed to meet for peace talks. As the U.S. signals readiness to mediate, the region braces for possible diplomatic and economic fallout if hostilities continue.

As Donald Trump intensifies his tariff war on nations like India and Brazil, a BRICS Strategic Awakening is underway. The five-member bloc—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—is realigning its collective strength to challenge Washington’s high-handedness. With renewed cooperation and resistance, this BRICS Strategic Awakening could reshape the global trade order. From bilateral pacts to bold diplomatic moves, the BRICS Strategic Awakening signals a global shift towards multipolarity.

In a bold response to Trump’s steep 50% tariffs, India and Brazil have vowed to deepen strategic and trade ties.

Ukraine has launched a dramatic strike just hours before the high-stakes Trump-Putin summit in Alaska. President Volodymyr Zelensky’s forces reportedly blew up a Russian ship docked at Port Olya, allegedly carrying Iranian-made drone parts. The move is being seen as a bold sabotage attempt aimed at derailing peace talks, escalating tensions between Moscow and Kyiv, and sending a defiant message ahead of the much-anticipated face-off between the U.S. and Russian leaders.

Tens of thousands rallied in Kuala Lumpur demanding Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s resignation over rising living costs and tax policies. Protesters, clad in black “Step Down Anwar” shirts, marched to Independence Square as police estimated over 18,000 attendees. Former PM Mahathir, 100, joined the protests, accusing Anwar of misuse of power and judicial interference. Public anger has surged after subsidy cuts, expanded taxes, and dropped graft charges against Anwar’s allies. Despite cash handouts and fuel price pledges, demonstrators vow to continue until Anwar steps down.

Shocking CCTV footage has captured the moment a Ukrainian drone slammed into a civilian vehicle in the heart of Belgorod, Russia, unleashing a fiery blast that left three people wounded. Among the victims, one man is reported to be in serious condition. The attack occurred in broad daylight at a busy city intersection, sending pedestrians and drivers scrambling for safety.
Local authorities say the strike was part of escalating cross-border drone assaults targeting Russia’s Belgorod region in recent months. Vyacheslav Gladkov, the regional governor, confirmed the injuries and released the harrowing footage, which quickly went viral. The dramatic clip shows the drone swooping down before detonating on impact, obliterating the vehicle in an instant. Officials have condemned the attack as an act of terrorism against civilians, while Kyiv has yet to comment. The strike underscores the growing reach of Ukrainian drone operations deep into Russian territory.

In a move sparking outrage in Kyiv and across Europe, U.S. President Donald Trump is facing accusations of caving to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s demands even before their high-stakes Alaska Summit begins on August 15, 2025. The talks, set at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, aim to broker a ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine war, but Moscow insists on three controversial conditions: Ukraine’s full military withdrawal from four occupied regions, formal recognition of Russian sovereignty over annexed territories including Crimea, and a constitutional ban on NATO membership.
Critics warn these terms would reward aggression, dismantle Ukraine’s sovereignty, and embolden future invasions. Trump’s openness to “territorial swaps” has raised fears of a deal without Kyiv’s consent. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has vowed “no concessions,” while European allies caution that agreeing to these terms could rewrite global borders by force and undermine international law.

As Trump imposes sweeping tariffs on India and China, leaders Modi, Xi, and Putin are coordinating a strategic response. Modi and Putin held a phone call to review bilateral ties, with Trump accusing India of funding Russia’s war via oil trade. Xi also spoke with Putin, urging diplomacy with the U.S. but slamming Trump’s “bully” tactics. The growing BRICS unity signals a serious counterweight to Washington’s tariff war, as all three powers challenge what they call unfair and illegal U.S. trade pressure.
