The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster added, "It's very different from what we're saying this week, which is migration can make a great contribution to the United Kingdom, but it's got to be done with some rules around it".

Iran has signaled its willingness to resume nuclear diplomacyâbut only under strict conditions. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said renewed talks must include U.S. guarantees that Iranian nuclear sites will not be struck again, following recent Israeli and U.S. airstrikes, including the impactful June 22 bombing campaign. The cancelled June 15 round in Oman collapsed after Tehran deemed the attacks a âdeclaration of war.â Araghchi told Le Monde that diplomacy must now be rooted in accountability, mutual respect, and concrete assurances. Tehran continues enriching uranium to 60% purity under IAEA oversight, arguing this proves its programâs peaceful goals. Iran also refuses to discuss its ballistic missile capability, calling it defensively crucial. Washington asserts Trump remains committed to peaceâthough Araghchi dismissed claims of Iranâs program being âobliteratedâ and hinted at possible compensation for damage. The stakes are high as both sides weigh whether talks can survive past recent military escalations.

In a fiery escalation of U.S.-Brazil tensions, Donald Trump has publicly defended former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, slamming Brazilâs legal proceedings against him as âvery unfair.â Trump called Bolsonaro a âgood manâ and âtough negotiator,â drawing outrage from current President Lula da Silva, who warned the U.S. of âreciprocal tariffsâ if Trumpâs threatened 50% import duties go into effect.
Lula condemned Trumpâs remarks and questioned the legitimacy of his defense, particularly as Bolsonaro faces trial for plotting to prevent Lulaâs presidency in 2023. Despite Trump's stance, Brazil's government downplayed the tariffâs impact, projecting continued growth. Tensions flared as Lula said while Brazil seeks dialogue, it would not bow to threats. Trump hinted at a conversation with Lula but showed no urgency. As the 2025 global trade climate heats up, this Trump-Bolsonaro-Lula standoff marks a dramatic pivot in diplomatic tone between two major Western Hemisphere powers.
