Putin's Aide Lavrov Breathes Fire, Rejects EU Peacekeeping Forces In Ukraine | Watch Full Speech
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov fiercely criticized the European Union's proposal to deploy peacekeepers in Ukraine, labeling it a deceptive war tactic aimed at escalating the conflict.
Speaking at a live press conference, Lavrov accused the EU of using "peacekeeping" as a guise for further militarization, warning that such actions would drag Europe into direct confrontation with Russia.
The Kremlin maintains that the West is weaponizing Ukraine against Moscow, with Lavrov emphasizing that any foreign deployment would be seen as a direct provocation.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov downplayed Donald Trump’s prediction that there is a 25% chance the upcoming Alaska summit with President Vladimir Putin could fail. Speaking ahead of the high-stakes talks, Lavrov said Russia would not engage in forecasting outcomes, emphasizing that Moscow has “arguments and a clear, definite position” ready for the meeting.
He credited U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, Trump’s close associate, with laying much of the groundwork for the discussions and expressed hope that negotiations would continue into the next day. The Anchorage talks, already under global scrutiny, come at a time of tense U.S.-Russia relations and ongoing war in Ukraine. While Trump has framed the meeting as a potential breakthrough, Lavrov’s remarks signal confidence in Russia’s approach and suggest Moscow is prepared to stand firm. The world now watches to see if the dialogue will ease tensions or widen the divide.

North Korea is openly warning the U.S. to recognize it as a nuclear power or abandon hopes of future diplomacy. Backed by Russia, Pyongyang says denuclearization is off the table and that Washington’s expectations are outdated. Kim Jong Un’s sister mocked U.S. efforts and insisted the “2025 reality” demands a new approach. Russia’s Foreign Minister Lavrov supported North Korea’s stance, citing self-defense. With alliances forming and rhetoric intensifying, the DPRK declares its nuclear status non-negotiable—placing future talks in deep uncertainty.

Ukraine is facing its worst manpower crisis since the start of the war with Russia, with The Telegraph reporting that at least 650,000 fighting-age men have fled the country since 2022. Many others are hiding within Ukraine or bribing officials to avoid conscription. The draft evasion problem is spiraling as Russian forces push forward in Donetsk, with military analysts warning of severe infantry shortages and failing drone operations.
Reports suggest desertions have surged to nearly 400,000, while disturbing videos show Ukrainian draft officers violently detaining men in what locals call “busification.” Even support roles like mechanics and radar operators are being reassigned to frontline combat. Thousands have attempted dangerous border escapes, some ending in fatalities. Ukrainian commanders warn the situation is becoming unsustainable, threatening the country’s ability to continue the fight.

Just hours before his highly anticipated face-to-face with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, President Donald Trump has set off a political firestorm with one of his most explosive statements yet on the Ukraine war. Hinting at a major policy shift, Trump’s remarks are fueling speculation that he may be ready to scale back U.S. support for Kyiv — a move critics say could hand Moscow a strategic victory and leave Ukraine out in the cold. The timing, so close to the summit, has only amplified the shockwaves rippling through Washington, Kyiv, and global diplomatic circles.

Nearly 50 people were detained and dozens injured as rival groups clashed during anti-government protests in Serbia. Violence erupted in Novi Sad when ruling party supporters attacked demonstrators with flares, rocks, and bottles, while an army officer fired in the air. Clashes were reported in 90 locations nationwide, with riot police using tear gas in Belgrade. Protests, ongoing since November after a deadly train station collapse, demand early elections. President Aleksandar Vučić resists, balancing EU membership aspirations with close ties to Russia and China.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky left Downing Street after a high-profile meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, just hours before Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are set to meet in Alaska for critical talks on ending the Ukraine war. The meeting between Starmer and Zelensky was a public show of unity, with both leaders refusing to comment on whether Trump could deliver a fair ceasefire.
The Kremlin confirmed the Alaska summit will feature a one-on-one session followed by delegation talks, with a joint press conference to follow. Meanwhile, tensions escalate on the ground: Russia claims Ukraine launched dozens of drones at Volgograd and Belgorod overnight, while Ukraine reports deadly Russian strikes on Kharkiv. Former MI6 chief Alex Younger warns there is no sign Putin has softened his aims. The world’s attention now turns to Alaska, where the outcome could reshape the future of Europe’s bloodiest conflict in decades.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has reportedly not been invited to the upcoming Trump–Putin peace summit in Alaska on August 15, raising concerns of a diplomatic sidelining. White House sources say the meeting will focus on U.S.–Russia dialogue at Moscow’s request. While Trump has floated territorial swaps as a path to peace, Zelensky rejects the idea, citing constitutional limits. The Kremlin insists talks must address Crimea and four regions annexed in 2022, while Ukraine refuses any concessions, leaving negotiations at an impasse.

In a stunning shift, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signaled readiness for peace talks with Russia, saying “it’s time to end the war.” His call for a “dignified peace” comes amid a confirmed Trump-Putin summit soon and ongoing Russian strikes. Zelensky proposed bilateral or trilateral summits and urged Moscow to match Ukraine’s courage. The Kremlin, however, questions Zelensky’s legitimacy, citing expired terms and lack of elections. With Putin-Trump talks expected soon, the path to peace now faces high-stakes political hurdles.
