EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that Brussels will delay retaliation against U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs as talks with Washington continue. President Trump disrupted months of negotiation, warning the EU of sweeping 30% tariffs unless a deal is reached by August 1. Von der Leyen confirmed preparations for countermeasures are ongoing, but emphasized the EU still prefers a negotiated solution. With $24 billion in U.S. goods at stake, the next few weeks are critical as the tariff standoff risks escalating into a full-blown trade clash.

A political firestorm has erupted in Brussels as French MEPs accuse European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen of secretly negotiating a âŹ35 billion vaccine deal with Pfizerâvia SMS. With no tenders or transparency, critics allege "abuse of power" and demand accountability. The scandal, now dubbed âPfizergate,â comes days before a critical no-confidence vote. Calls for von der Leyenâs resignation grow louder as questions swirl around pricing, procurement, and the hidden texts that could shake the EU to its core.

Iranâs Foreign Ministry has launched a blistering verbal offensive against German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, accusing Berlin of directly supporting Israelâs âwar of aggressionâ against the Islamic Republic. In a fiery statement posted online, senior Iranian official Esmaeil Baqaei slammed Merz for endorsing what he called âatrocity crimesâ and âunprovoked armed attacksâ by Israel, claiming it violated the UN Charterâs Article 2(4). Labeling Germanyâs position as both âillegalâ and âcriminal,â Baqaei said Berlinâs support amounts to âcomplicity in aggressionâ and warned that Germany now bears international legal responsibility. The remarks come as Iran seeks to rally global opinion against Israel following strikes on its territory, and as Tehran accuses Western powers of shielding Israeli actions. Iranâs legal framing of Germanyâs conduct could escalate diplomatic tensions and spark fierce debates at global forums including the UN and ICJ.

IAEA chief Rafael Grossi has triggered global debate by revealing that Germany possesses the materials, technology, and expertise to build a nuclear bomb within monthsâif it chose to. While Germany remains committed to non-proliferation treaties, Grossi warned that no nation is guided solely by altruism on nuclear matters. German politician Jens Spahn reignited calls for Berlin to access UK or French nuclear deterrents, claiming U.S. nukes on German soil are no longer enough to counter the Russian threat.
