U.S-Ukraine Tensions growing day by day. Zelensky rejects U.S. rare-earths deal, drawing sharp criticism from the White House, which labeled his decision “short-sighted.” The proposal, reportedly discussed at the Munich Security Conference, would have granted Washington access to Ukraine’s critical mineral resources in exchange for continued U.S. support. However, Zelensky pushed back, arguing that Ukraine seeks a true partnership, not a one-sided transaction.

Poland Rejects Zelensky’s Call For Unified EU Army, reaffirming its commitment to NATO. Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski stated that a European military would not materialize, emphasizing that EU defense efforts should complement, not replace, US-led NATO security. Zelensky’s proposal, made at the Munich Security Conference, comes amid shifting US-European relations. While past EU leaders have supported a joint force, the Ukraine conflict has curbed such discussions, with Poland prioritizing close military cooperation with Washington over an independent European defense initiative.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has delivered a bold statement: “The West as we knew it no longer exists.” In a powerful new interview, she blames President Trump’s aggressive tariffs—20% on EU goods and 25% on cars—for collapsing the once-strong transatlantic alliance. As EU-U.S. trade tensions grow, the EU is pivoting toward new global partners. Von der Leyen says 87% of the world’s trade now happens outside the U.S., marking a clear shift in economic power. Is the era of a united West truly over?

Top Ukrainian officials made a surprise trip to Paris, pushing the U.S. for a tougher stance on Russia after failed ceasefire efforts. Their visit comes as Donald Trump's envoys, including Marco Rubio, meet with European leaders. With Ukraine accusing Trump of appeasing Moscow, tensions have reached a new peak. France, Germany, and the UK are pressing for action after deadly attacks on civilians in Sumy. Trump, frustrated by both sides, blamed Zelenskyy for provoking the war—raising alarms across Europe. A new security framework may be on the table, but peace remains distant.
