The United States and Ukraine have signed a preliminary memorandum outlining a deal for access to Ukraine’s rare-earth mineral resources.
President Trump confirmed the final agreement could be signed as early as next week.
The deal is being positioned by the U.S. as a way to offset the billions spent on assistance to Ukraine during its war with Russia.
While Kyiv stresses aid was unconditional, Trump’s comments suggest a transactional motive.
Tensions remain over funding, accountability, and political respect between the nations as both sides finalize the details.

Russia has ramped up its assault on Ukraine after former President Trump issued a final nuclear warning.

Tensions between Washington and Moscow are spiraling after U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines near Russian waters in response to Dmitry Medvedev’s chilling “dead hand” threat. The move has fueled fears of World War 3, despite experts calling it “posturing.” A viral video claiming Russian Borei-class submarines armed with Bulava missiles are stationed off the U.S. coast has added to the panic, though fact-checkers confirmed the footage is from 2018. Trump defended his decision on Truth Social, warning that “words are important and can have unintended consequences.” Analysts suggest the deployment signals strength but does not escalate nuclear confrontation. The standoff comes as Trump grows increasingly frustrated with Vladimir Putin’s refusal to negotiate a Ukraine ceasefire, with both nations engaging in nuclear saber-rattling unseen since the Cold War.

Putin and Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko launched a scathing attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, dismissing Ukraine’s recent anti-corruption drive as a “publicity stunt.” The leaders accused Zelensky of using scandals to distract from battlefield setbacks and declining Western support. With tensions escalating across the eastern front, the Putin-Lukashenko alliance is sending a strong signal to Kyiv and NATO.

The Pentagon has confirmed the long-anticipated test date for Trump's billion-dollar "Golden Dome" missile defense system—just weeks before the 2028 election. Announced in May, Trump’s campaign-era promise aims to create a space-based shield against missile threats. The timing raises eyebrows, with defense experts questioning if this is military strategy or political theater. Led by Gen. Michael Guetlein and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, the program faces tight deadlines, scaling challenges, and skyrocketing costs. With $25B already allocated, the pressure to deliver—both technically and politically—is mounting.

In a significant diplomatic development, India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar met with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing on July 15th, on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit. This high-stakes meeting marked Jaishankar's first visit to China since the deadly 2020 Galwan Valley border clash, signalling a cautious step toward the normalization of ties between the two Asian giants. During his visit, Jaishankar also held talks with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, advocating for a "far-seeing" and strategic approach to the bilateral relationship.
The core of the discussions revolved around the protracted border standoff in Eastern Ladakh. Jaishankar firmly reiterated India's position, stressing that complete troop disengagement in the remaining friction points of Depsang and Demchok is a prerequisite for restoring normalcy and rebuilding trust. He emphasized that peace and tranquility along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) are fundamental to the overall development of India-China relations.
A key highlight of the meeting was Jaishankar's subtle but sharp criticism of China's recent export curbs on rare earth minerals, a move that directly threatens India's critical manufacturing and high-tech sectors. With China controlling over 90% of the global rare earth output, Beijing wields significant economic leverage, a point not lost on the Indian delegation.
Despite the diplomatic optics of cooperation within the SCO framework, deep-seated strategic mistrust remains a major obstacle. The talks were overshadowed by recent revelations from Lt Gen Rahul Singh that China had provided live intelligence, weapons, and drones to Pakistan during a previous conflict. This underscores the challenge India faces, dealing with China's "sweet diplomacy" on one hand and its "cunning moves" on the other, proving that a real thaw in relations will require more than just high-level meetings.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Western allies to seek "regime change" in Russia following a devastating drone and missile strike on Kyiv that killed 16 people, including a six-year-old boy. Over 150 were wounded in one of the most intense attacks in months. The overnight barrage hit a residential tower, causing mass devastation, just as Moscow claimed to have captured Chasiv Yar, a strategic town in eastern Ukraine.
While Ukraine denies full Russian control, analysts admit the battle is “very difficult.” The brutal assault came shortly after U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 10-day ultimatum to Russia, threatening further sanctions. As the Kremlin pushes its offensive deeper into Donetsk, Kyiv faces political unrest at home after Zelensky was forced to withdraw a controversial anti-corruption bill under EU pressure. With Russia escalating attacks and Ukraine’s internal crisis deepening, the war enters a volatile new phase.

Russian troops have reportedly stormed into Chasiv Yar after a grueling 16-month standoff, raising their flags over key positions in the strategically vital Ukrainian town. While Kremlin sources claim a breakthrough, Kyiv has denied the fall, stating that fierce resistance continues and the situation remains “fluid.” This town is critical for access to Sloviansk and Kramatorsk—major Ukrainian strongholds in Donetsk.
