Biden's Big Challenge to Putin: White House Admits Allowing Ukraine Hitting Deep Inside Russia
The White House has officially confirmed a policy shift, allowing Ukraine to strike targets within Russia using U.S.-supplied Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS).
National Security Council spokesman John Kirby stated that Ukraine now has the green light to deploy these weapons for immediate defensive needs, particularly in areas like Russia's Kursk region.
This move follows heightened speculation over the past week, during which Kyiv reportedly used ATACMS in strikes on Russia’s Bryansk region.
The U.S. and NATO allies have continuously supplied advanced weaponry to Ukraine since 2022 while asserting that this support does not make them direct participants in the conflict.
However, Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly warned of severe repercussions, including nuclear escalation, if NATO’s involvement crosses certain thresholds.
In September, Putin emphasized that Kyiv's use of long-range weapons could alter the nature of the war, effectively drawing NATO into direct confrontation.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly unfazed by U.S. President Donald Trump’s growing pressure to reach a swift resolution in Ukraine. According to the Financial Times, Putin remains "immune" to Trump’s urgency and insists that peace talks must first address what he calls the “root causes” of the conflict.
These include NATO’s eastward expansion, Western military aid to Ukraine, and alleged discrimination against Russian-speaking citizens. The report says Putin conveyed this stance directly during recent calls with Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron. Despite Western efforts to halt the war, Putin blames the conflict on long-standing U.S. and EU policies that transformed Ukraine into an anti-Russia stronghold. As U.S. military aid continues to flow into Ukraine, Moscow warns the conflict will only escalate unless core Russian concerns are recognized and resolved.

In a landmark move, the UK and France have signed a historic agreement to coordinate their nuclear forces in response to growing threats—particularly from Russia. The pact strengthens joint deterrence capabilities and marks a unified European nuclear posture not seen before. The deal also expands their Joint Expeditionary Force to 50,000 troops. Leaders Macron and Starmer called it a “renewed vision” for European security, reaffirming support for Ukraine and warning against easing pressure on Putin as war escalates.

At a high-stakes summit in Rome, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz reaffirmed unwavering European support for Ukraine amid Russia’s escalating airstrikes. Merz issued a direct warning to Putin—“We will not give up”—and urged Donald Trump to maintain transatlantic unity. While Trump approved new weapons, his long-term stance remains unclear. As Kyiv seeks more Patriot systems, Germany considers direct delivery. With 30 nations gathered, the summit focused on rebuilding Ukraine and coordinating air defenses as the war enters a deadlier phase.

In a dramatic turnaround, the Trump administration has resumed shipping weapons to Ukraine after a brief but controversial pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The move had caught even White House officials off guard and temporarily halted deliveries of key systems including Patriot missiles, GMLRS rockets, and 155 mm Howitzer rounds. Trump claimed no knowledge of the pause, stating he hadn’t given the order. Pentagon officials say the review was part of a broader stockpile assessment.
But amid growing pressure from both allies and U.S. lawmakers, shipments resumed quietly—now including precision-guided rockets and artillery shells. Trump cited Russia’s rising brutality and President Putin’s conduct as reasons for restoring deliveries. The weapons—especially the 155 mm rounds—are critical in Ukraine’s defense. With the largest drone attack yet launched by Russia, Trump’s decision underscores the escalating urgency of the war. Over $67 billion in U.S. military aid has been sent since 2022.

In a defiant statement ahead of key NATO-related discussions, French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu declared France’s “absolute red line” in the Ukraine conflict: demilitarizing Ukraine while denying it NATO membership. Lecornu told Valeurs Actuelles that Europe cannot accept a defenseless Ukraine outside NATO, directly rejecting Russia's long-standing demands for a neutral, demilitarized Ukraine.
Russia, in contrast, insists any peace deal must address its security concerns — including Ukraine’s NATO ambition and military status. Lecornu's remarks come ahead of a UK-French push to reshape Ukraine’s post-war military under a Western “coalition of the willing.” Meanwhile, Moscow warns such moves will escalate the war, with foreign forces seen as “legitimate targets.” Tensions mount as Putin claims Ukraine reneged on the 2022 Istanbul terms that would’ve imposed limits on its army. The future of Ukraine’s military — and its place in Europe — hangs in the balance.

Britain and France have unveiled a powerful new nuclear cooperation pact — dubbed the Northward Declaration — pledging deeper coordination of their arsenals amid rising European tensions. British PM Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron announced the agreement in a joint statement, vowing unified deterrence against any "extreme threat" to the continent. Russia reacted sharply, calling the pact part of NATO's "anti-Russian canvas" and warning it would be considered in future military planning. Moscow has condemned the UK-France coordination as a dangerous escalation and an extension of Washington's influence in Europe. With nearly 500 nuclear warheads combined, the UK and France’s alignment significantly alters the nuclear landscape in Europe. Macron denied any link to Ukraine but said the pact "sends a message" to allies and enemies alike. Russian Deputy FM Ryabkov warned Moscow will now factor London and Paris’ joint nuclear force into its military strategy.

Russia has launched a scathing attack on UN Secretary-General António Guterres, accusing him of political bias and acting as a mouthpiece for NATO and the “criminal Kyiv regime.” Moscow condemned Guterres' recent comments on alleged Russian missile and drone strikes that supposedly caused a power outage at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant.
Russia insists the real culprits were Ukrainian militants and blasted the IAEA for ignoring those attacks in its reports. The Russian Foreign Ministry said Guterres was spreading “fabricated lies” and violating the UN Charter by favoring one side. Moscow asserts that it ensures the plant's safety and only targets military sites, unlike Kyiv, which it accuses of systematic strikes on civilians. With accusations of double standards and a call to end disinformation, Russia warned that UN officials must return to neutrality or risk losing credibility on the global stage.

Donald Trump ripped into Vladimir Putin, accusing him of killing "too many people" and mistreating human lives. In a sharp shift, Trump confirmed he supports sending defensive weapons to Ukraine, criticizing Biden for over-equipping Kyiv but acknowledging Ukrainian bravery. “We gave them far more than Europe. Should’ve been less,” Trump said. Calling Putin “nice but meaningless,” Trump admitted, “We get a lot of bullsh*t thrown at us.” His remarks mark a dramatic tone against the Russian leader ahead of the 2024 race.

As rescue teams search for 11 missing girls last seen at Camp Mystic, Donald Trump deflects responsibility, calling the tragedy a “Biden setup” and brushing off questions about slashed FEMA and weather budgets. Entire communities were engulfed as the Guadalupe River surged 26 feet in just 45 minutes.

The Russia-Ukraine war has entered a brutal new phase. In July 2025, Russia unleashed its largest-ever aerial assault on Kyiv, a sign of its growing dominance on the battlefield. But how did we get here? This in-depth report from Oneindia News examines the seismic shifts that have given Vladimir Putin the upper hand after years of stalemate.
The primary catalyst was the 2024 U.S. election and the return of Donald Trump. We analyze how Trump's "America First" policy led to a complete halt in military aid to Ukraine, a stark contrast to the billions pumped in under the Joe Biden administration. From Trump's vow to end the war in "24 hours" to backchannel talks with Moscow, his actions effectively isolated Kyiv and gave Russia a green light to escalate its offensive.
Beyond the White House, Russia itself has adapted. Learning from early failures, Moscow embraced a brutal war of attrition, bolstered by massive support from allies like North Korea and Iran, and an economic lifeline from China. With 450,000 new recruits in 2024, Russia’s overwhelming manpower is crushing Ukrainian defenses. Meanwhile, Ukraine is facing a catastrophic crisis of its own. With its military stretched thin, a severe shortage of soldiers and ammunition, and war fatigue setting in, the nation's survival hangs in the balance. Despite innovative tactics like the "Operation Spider's Web" drone strikes, can President Zelenskyy's forces survive without robust Western support?
This video explains the intricate web of geopolitics, military strategy, and leadership changes that define the current state of the war. As Russia pushes forward, we ask the critical question: Is Ukraine's defeat now inevitable?

The Pentagon has confirmed it is conducting a “capability review” to reassess whether military aid to Ukraine aligns with America’s shifting defense priorities. Chief spokesperson Sean Parnell said the U.S. is taking a hard look at promised weapons deliveries — some of which are now halted — to ensure national interests come first. The move follows the White House’s decision to stop key shipments of air defense ammunition, artillery shells, and missiles previously pledged under the Biden administration.
With President Trump’s “America First” policy reshaping foreign aid strategy, the Pentagon appears to be pivoting away from prolonged foreign entanglements. Ukrainian officials have slammed the halt as betrayal, warning it weakens their resistance against Russia’s advances. Meanwhile, analysts say this could signal a major realignment in U.S. global commitments — and a boost for Russian military strategy. Is Washington walking away from Kyiv?

Tensions between the United States and Iran have escalated once again after Tehran suspended cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) following US and Israeli strikes on its nuclear facilities. US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce called Iran’s move "unacceptable" and urged Tehran to resume full cooperation under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
In this video, we break down what led to the latest nuclear standoff, the implications of Iran possibly exiting the NPT, the frozen US-Iran nuclear talks, and what Donald Trump and Biden are saying about sanctions and diplomacy. Will Iran return to the negotiating table, or are we on the brink of a new nuclear crisis?
Stay tuned as we unpack the geopolitical stakes, regional fallout, and what this means for global non-proliferation efforts.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has begun a high-stakes three-day visit to North Korea, underscoring deepening military ties between Moscow and Pyongyang amid the Ukraine war. Lavrov praised the “invincible brotherhood” between the nations during talks with North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui in Wonsan. Notably, North Korea had deployed troops to aid Russian forces in repelling Ukraine’s invasion of the Kursk region in 2024.
Lavrov specifically commended the sacrifices of the Korean People’s Army in retaking Sudzha and surrounding villages from what he called “Ukrainian Nazis.” With Kyiv’s offensive now crushed, North Korea is sending more troops for reconstruction efforts in Kursk. Lavrov’s visit signals Russia’s growing pivot towards pariah states as it faces Western isolation. Shoigu confirmed 6,000 North Korean troops would aid with demining and engineering.

Russia has confirmed the burial of Colonel Sergei Ilyin, commander of the 155th Marine Brigade, days after reports emerged of a Ukrainian HIMARS strike that allegedly killed him along with 21 others at a command post in Kursk Oblast. Independent outlet Astra cites officials in Chuvash Republic, although the cause of death remains undisclosed. The same attack reportedly killed Major General Mikhail Gudkov.
The 155th Brigade has long been accused of war crimes in Bucha and Irpin, heightening the symbolic weight of Ilyin’s death. Ukrainian officials have not officially commented. Kyiv’s broader cross-border campaign in Kursk Oblast, launched in 2024, has claimed tens of thousands of Russian casualties. Russian forces, with help from North Korea, reclaimed much of the territory earlier this year. The Kremlin remains silent on the incident, even as its high-ranking military leadership continues to be decimated by precision Ukrainian strikes.

In a major shift, U.S. President Donald Trump has approved a fresh $300 million military aid package to Ukraine, reportedly including rare Patriot surface-to-air missiles and medium-range rockets. The decision follows a brief and controversial Pentagon pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a known skeptic of increased aid to Kiev.
Trump’s move marks the first use of his Presidential Drawdown Authority, allowing emergency arms transfers directly from U.S. stockpiles. While the Pentagon claimed the pause was a limited stockpile review, it had caused concern among European allies and Ukrainian officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio later clarified that most weapons shipments were never stopped. Trump, who has reopened ceasefire talks with Russia, acknowledged the high cost of Patriot systems but said Ukraine still needs them. The Kremlin has warned the continued weapons flow contradicts peace efforts and further complicates diplomacy.

Trump’s leaked rebuke of Putin signals Washington’s harder stance as the war intensifies.

The Trump administration has fired over 100 National Security Council (NSC) staffers in a surprise Memorial Day shake-up, reportedly aimed at dismantling what insiders call the “Deep State.” Employees received just 30 minutes to vacate offices, affecting major directorates including Ukraine and Indo-Pacific. Acting NSA Marco Rubio is spearheading the effort to streamline policy control, slashing NSC staff from over 300 to just 50. Officials say the move reduces bureaucracy and restores NSC’s original purpose. This is among the most sweeping reorganizations of Trump’s second term so far.

Putin revealed that Ukraine’s attempted incursion into Russia’s Kursk region ended in disaster, with 76,000 Ukrainian troops lost. Calling their military strategy “stupidity,” he warned that Russia will now push for a buffer zone.

According to Air Defence Commander Yuriy Dashkin, Putin’s helicopter was in the "epicentre" of a large-scale drone attack, with one drone shot down near his flight path. Russia says over 1,170 drones were destroyed between May 20–22. Officials are now probing whether the strike was an attempted assassination or a psychological operation by Ukraine. No injuries or damages were reported, and Putin’s convoy continued as planned.
