Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has taken a firm stance against sending European troops to Ukraine, rejecting a proposal backed by the UK and France.
At a high-stakes summit in London, Meloni reaffirmed Italy’s commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty but insisted that any military involvement must be under UN auspices and only after hostilities cease.
She also expressed regret over the tense Oval Office exchange between Trump and Zelensky, emphasizing the need for unity among Western allies.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni went viral at the White House summit led by President Trump after rolling her eyes at German Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s remarks on pushing Russia toward a ceasefire. Social media erupted, dubbing Meloni the “Queen of Expressions” and praising her candid display. Beyond the viral gesture, Meloni greeted U.S. officials with a Namaste and reaffirmed her solidarity with Ukraine, stressing that true peace must come through unity. Known for her unfiltered reactions, Meloni continues to capture global attention online.

A major rift has erupted in Europe as Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni reportedly clashed with French President Emmanuel Macron over the possibility of sending Western troops to Ukraine. According to Corriere della Sera, Macron pushed for a European deployment, while Meloni sharply opposed the idea, warning that Russia’s massive army made such moves unrealistic. “How many soldiers should we send to match 1.3 million Russians?” she allegedly asked. The confrontation came just before Meloni, Macron, and other leaders joined Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House for high-stakes talks with Donald Trump following his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin. While Macron continues to float a “coalition of the willing,” Meloni favors NATO-style protections without direct deployment. Germany, Poland, Spain, Romania, and Croatia also reject sending troops, leaving Europe divided as fears grow that NATO boots on the ground could ignite World War III.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni delivered a firm and unexpected warning to Vladimir Putin during high-level talks at the White House, stunning President Trump and other leaders with what appeared to be a sharp U-turn in Italy’s stance. Declaring “Italy stands with Ukraine,” Meloni reaffirmed her country’s commitment to supporting Kyiv, while cautioning that “Russia should not be rewarded for aggression.” Her remarks reportedly caught Trump off guard, injecting new energy—and new tensions—into the already high-stakes discussions on the future of the war.

A high-voltage diplomatic showdown unfolds in Washington as President Trump hosts Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky alongside key EU leaders. French President Emmanuel Macron, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer have all arrived for the big meeting.

A historic confrontation is unfolding in Washington as President Donald Trump meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, joined by key European leaders including Macron, Merz, Meloni, Starmer, von der Leyen, Stubb, and NATO’s Mark Rutte. This comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he backed a plan for Ukraine to cede Crimea and parts of Donbas, abandon NATO, and accept neutrality. Europe and Kyiv fiercely reject this “surrender deal,” warning it rewards Russian aggression and threatens NATO itself. Trump’s transactional “America First” diplomacy—focused on quick wins and cutting U.S. military spending—clashes directly with Europe’s push for long-term security and continued military aid. As Russia intensifies strikes, Europe views concessions as catastrophic. Tensions inside the White House are boiling: will this meeting end in compromise, or spark a full-scale rift between America and Europe that could reshape global order?

A massive Russian onslaught of missiles, bombs, and drones has left over 600 Ukrainian troops dead, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense. The devastating coordinated strike also destroyed dozens of armored vehicles, leaving behind scenes of fire and wreckage captured on drone cameras. The attack marks one of the deadliest single operations in recent months, sending shockwaves through Kyiv’s battlefield morale. Drone footage shows scorched earth and flattened positions, underscoring Moscow’s intensifying campaign. Meanwhile, a dramatic political twist is unfolding—Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signaled readiness to engage in direct peace talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Sources suggest Ukraine may even consider concessions on territories under Russian control, sparking debate over whether Kyiv is preparing for a painful compromise. With battlefield devastation and diplomatic maneuvers happening simultaneously, the war seems to be entering a dangerous new phase.

In a stunning turn, Ukraine signaled readiness for direct talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, with a senior diplomat saying President Volodymyr Zelensky is prepared to discuss territorial disputes. Ukraine’s First Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Kislitsa stressed that the current frontline could serve as the starting point for negotiations, though Kyiv insists it will not trade land for peace. Behind closed doors, however, reports suggest Zelensky may consider freezing the conflict along existing battle lines. The move comes as the West races to draft security guarantees for Kyiv, with the US likely overseeing command and Europe providing the bulk of forces. Moscow has cautiously welcomed dialogue but warned that serious diplomatic groundwork must precede any meeting. Russian officials have also questioned Zelensky’s authority, as his presidential term expired over a year ago, adding another layer of uncertainty to the potential high-stakes talks.

Vladimir Putin’s fiery speech in Sarov has sent shockwaves through Washington and the West. While calling Trump a “light at the end of the tunnel,” Putin slammed US elites and showcased Russia’s nuclear edge in the Arctic. Trump, jittery at the Alaska Summit, appeared uncertain on Ukraine, even as Zelensky pushed back hard. With Russia flaunting its unmatched nuclear icebreaker fleet and quantum leaps in military technology, are we watching the dawn of a new Cold War — or World War 3?

Russia has accused Ukraine of disguising a U.S.-owned Flex factory as a civilian electronics plant while secretly using it for military production. Russian analysts claim the Mukachevo facility was customizing circuits for drones and missile guidance, storing munitions, and assembling precision weapon systems—making it a prime target. Moscow says secondary explosions prove military stockpiles were onsite, contradicting Zelensky’s claim that the factory only made household appliances. The strike highlights Russia’s push to expose “militarized civilian industries” fueling Ukraine’s war effort.

India has announced a dramatic suspension of all postal services to the United States starting August 25, following sweeping tariff changes by the Trump administration. The move comes after Executive Order No. 14324 ended the duty-free exemption for items up to $800, hitting Indian exporters and postal customers hard. With US-bound carriers refusing consignments due to undefined customs processes, India Post said only letters, documents, and small gifts under $100 will be exempt. The suspension follows Trump’s 25% tariff on India, coupled with an additional 25% penalty for buying Russian oil, pushing the total levy to 50%. Protests are rising as businesses, families, and exporters brace for chaos in shipments, refunds, and trade flows. The Department of Posts has promised efforts to restore services but warned delays could be prolonged, intensifying an already heated US–India trade standoff.

The IPC has raised Gaza to Phase Five, its highest alert level, amid Israel’s blockade preventing vital aid deliveries. Despite repeated UN warnings, Israel dismisses famine claims as “Hamas lies.” Meanwhile, wealthy Muslim nations largely remain silent, focusing on ties with Israel while Gaza faces unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe.

Colombia has been rocked by one of its deadliest coordinated attacks in recent years, leaving at least 17 people dead. Authorities say dissidents of the defunct FARC rebels launched two brutal strikes: a car bomb outside a military aviation school in Cali and a drone attack on a police helicopter in Antioquia. At least 12 police officers were killed in the helicopter attack, which targeted personnel eradicating coca leaf crops, the raw material for cocaine. Another five lives were lost in the car bomb blast, which also injured more than 30 people. President Gustavo Petro initially blamed the Gulf Clan drug cartel but later pointed to FARC dissidents as key perpetrators. The violence underscores Colombia’s deepening security crisis as drug cartels and rebel remnants escalate attacks. The United Nations recently reported coca cultivation reached record highs, fueling tensions across the country.

In a stunning Oval Office press conference, U.S. President Donald Trump suggested that fewer than 20 of the remaining hostages in Gaza are still alive — sparking outrage and despair from families demanding answers. Trump credited himself with previous hostage releases but warned that “a couple of them are not around any longer,” contradicting Israel’s official figures. Israel insists that 50 hostages remain in Gaza, with 20 alive, 2 in grave danger, and 28 confirmed dead. Families accused the government of keeping them in the dark while Trump’s comments intensified pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu, who is preparing to launch a massive Gaza City offensive under the name “Operation Iron Fist.” With one million Palestinians ordered to evacuate, negotiators scramble to reach a ceasefire-hostage deal before the invasion begins. The question now: how many hostages remain alive — and can they be saved in time?

During an Oval Office meeting on August 18, 2025, Donald Trump displayed a Ukraine war map highlighting territories under Russian control — a move Russia’s Foreign Ministry called a “strong slap” for President Zelensky. The map served as a public reminder of Ukraine’s battlefield losses, undermining Zelensky’s narrative of strength before European allies. For Russia, the display was hailed as a diplomatic win, reinforcing Putin’s territorial claims. For Europe, it raised fears that U.S. priorities are shifting toward Moscow, pressuring Kyiv toward concessions.

Just months after a tense Oval Office clash that ended in a shouting match, President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky struck a surprisingly cooperative tone in their latest White House meeting. Zelensky, criticized earlier for his military-style attire, appeared in a suit jacket, signaling a diplomatic gesture while keeping his wartime identity. This softer approach set the stage for lighthearted exchanges with Trump and multilateral talks joined by European leaders. Discussions centered on a potential peace deal with Russia, with Trump pushing for trilateral negotiations.
