In a stunning Oval Office remark, U.S. President Donald Trump compared the Russia-Ukraine war to “two kids fighting,” saying it might be better to let them brawl before stepping in. The Kremlin responded sharply, calling the war an "existential issue" tied to Russia’s national security and future. As German Chancellor Merz urged U.S. intervention, Trump signaled a more hands-off approach. The latest Trump-Putin exchange reveals deep global divisions and raises questions about America’s role in ending the war. Here's what both sides are really saying.

In a dramatic analogy, U.S. President Donald Trump compared the Russia-Ukraine war to a children's brawl, saying it's better to “let them fight for a while” before peace is enforced. During his Oval Office meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Trump claimed acting like a referee, not a peacemaker. He also hinted at possible punitive actions against both nations if the war doesn't end, stating “it takes two to tango.” Merz, invoking D-Day history, urged Trump to use America’s power to stop Putin and bring peace to Europe.

During a public moment with German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, Donald Trump was presented with a framed birth certificate of his grandfather, Friedrich Trump. Born in 1869 near Brandenburg, Friedrich emigrated to the U.S. in 1885, laying the foundation for the Trump family’s real estate empire. Trump graciously accepted the gift, thanking Merz and joking about where to display it. The moment highlighted Trump’s German heritage and was seen as a symbolic gesture amid international diplomacy.

U.S. President Donald Trump reignited his hardline immigration rhetoric, stating that a travel ban “can’t come soon enough.” Speaking about the migrant influx, he said the U.S. is “moving them out very strongly.” Trump also offered unsolicited advice to German Chancellor Merz on handling Europe’s “little problem” of migrants. As border politics heat up, Trump’s remarks are drawing backlash and support alike. The statements reflect his familiar stance on strict immigration controls and signal renewed focus on migration in his political narrative.

Germany is ramping up civil defense efforts like never before, with officials warning the country must be "ready for war" by 2029. From underground garages and metro tunnels turning into bunkers to emergency siren upgrades and wartime hospital prep, Berlin is preparing for the unthinkable—a direct confrontation with Russia. Civil defense chief Ralph Tiesler has called for at least €10 billion by the end of the decade, as military spending soars and public fear rises. But is this genuine preparedness or fear-fueled militarization? And how is Moscow responding?

The UN’s top human rights official, Volker Türk, has strongly condemned U.S. sanctions on four ICC judges as “deeply corrosive” to international justice. These judges, who ruled on cases involving alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and arrest warrants against Israeli leaders, now face sanctions from the Biden administration. Türk warned that targeting international judges for executing their duties endangers the rule of law. The EU has backed the ICC, vowing to counter these sanctions and defend the court’s independence from political pressure.
