A Ukrainian Member of Parliament has sparked global alarm by claiming President Volodymyr Zelensky may be planning a direct strike on Russia’s Victory Day Parade—a highly symbolic annual event commemorating the Soviet Union’s World War II triumph.
The shocking allegation suggests Kyiv could target the May 9 celebration in Moscow, where President Vladimir Putin is expected to appear, in a dramatic escalation of the war.
President Trump has signed a landmark U.S.–Ukraine minerals deal, granting Washington priority access to Kyiv’s natural resources while backing post-war rebuilding. Just moments after the agreement, Trump approved $50 million in aid to Ukraine, signaling a major policy shift. Critics point to his earlier boasts of ending the war in “one day,” contrasting with rising tensions and a stalled peace process. A Vatican meeting with Zelensky followed Pope Francis’ funeral, marking Trump’s first real defiance of Putin. The move has stunned Russia and could reshape the war’s diplomatic landscape.

Zelensky’s latest remarks have sparked alarm in Moscow, as he hinted that Russia’s iconic May 9 Victory Day parade may be in the crosshairs. While calling for a longer ceasefire, Zelensky suggested that Russia should worry more about the ongoing war than celebrations — a statement Russian officials claim amounts to an open threat. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova accused Kiev of plotting terrorist-style attacks while pretending to seek peace.

US President Donald Trump has claimed Ukraine could be “crushed very shortly” unless it agrees to peace talks with Russia. In an interview with The Atlantic, Trump said he’s trying to save Ukraine by pushing for negotiations, suggesting Moscow is open to a deal. He criticized Kiev’s stance, especially on Crimea, and hinted Zelensky was tougher to negotiate with than Putin. Meanwhile, Vice President Vance echoed similar concerns, and Secretary of State Rubio warned of the US abandoning talks if delays persist. Trump is also seeking a minerals agreement with Ukraine.

The Trump administration has pledged to spend another 100 days to secure a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine. US Vice President J.D. Vance confirmed the push, noting both sides are finally talking. Despite earlier ceasefires, tensions remain over disputed regions and NATO demands. Trump’s envoy claims Kyiv is softening its stance, but Ukraine continues to resist territorial concessions. As diplomacy inches forward, Moscow demands an end to mobilization and foreign arms support. Washington’s patience may be running thin if no breakthrough emerges from this crucial diplomatic window.

U.S Special Envoy Steve Witkoff recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin in a bid to persuade Russia for a ceasefire deal in Ukraine. This was the 4th such meeting in just over 2 months, but there seems to be no breakthrough yet as Putin remains firm recognition of Russia's control over Crimea and the four regions under Russian control since 2022. With peace talks stalling, could a Putin-Trump summit be the only path forward?

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko have arrived in Volgograd—formerly known as Stalingrad—for a high-profile World War II commemoration. But is this just a symbolic tribute to Soviet history, or something more? The two leaders are expected to address a joint Russian-Belarusian parliamentary forum on wartime legacy, but their private meeting is sparking speculation about deeper military and strategic coordination. With Belarus now formally aligned with nuclear-armed Russia through a 2024 defense pact, and tensions with the West rising, many are questioning the true purpose behind this visit. Watch the full video to explore what’s really going on.

In a stunning political shift, nearly 90% of Ukrainians say they don’t trust U.S. President Donald Trump, according to a new poll marking his first 100 days back in office. Once seen as a possible dealmaker in the Russia-Ukraine war, Trump is now viewed with deep skepticism in Kyiv after refusing to provide security guarantees, blaming Ukrainian leadership for the ongoing conflict, and proposing a controversial peace plan that many see as favoring Moscow. Is Trump abandoning Ukraine? Or reshaping U.S. foreign policy with cold realism?

Opening on 6 May 2025 and running through to Armistice Day in November, the display will feature nearly 30,000 ceramic poppies from the original 2014 installation, ‘Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red’. The artwork transformed the Tower’s moat into a sea of red, attracting more than five million visitors and becoming a national site of remembrance.
