A bombshell intelligence report from Dutch and German agencies claims that Russia is intensifying its use of chemical weapons in Ukraine. According to the MIVD, AIVD, and Germanyâs BND, Russia has deployed chloropicrin, a potentially lethal agent banned under the 1993 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), signaling a dramatic escalation in battlefield tactics. The agencies warn that chemical warfare has become âstandard practiceâ for Russian troops, with even non-lethal agents like tear gas being used to set the stage for more deadly substances. Dutch Defense Minister Ruben Brekelmans called the trend a âslippery slopeâ that poses a global threat. NATO allies fear this normalization could break longstanding international norms. Intelligence points to deepening Russian investment in chemical warfare capabilities and coordination by military leadership. With Russia still a CWC signatory, the revelations have sparked diplomatic outrage. The situation threatens to transform the conflictâs nature and legal framework entirely.

In a stunning development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced he will speak with U.S. President Donald Trump by phone. The announcement came during a business forum on July 3, 2025, with Putin offering no details on the agenda before leaving abruptly for the call. Minutes later, Trump confirmed the 10 AM ET conversation on social media, sending shockwaves through the international community.
This high-stakes call comes at a critical moment in the Russia-Ukraine war. Russian forces have been making significant territorial gains, recently claiming full control over the strategic region of Luhansk. This major blow to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's government has been exacerbated by a slowdown in crucial military support from the United States. Moscow has intensified its aerial attacks, and the geopolitical landscape appears to be shifting, with both NATO and the U.S. seemingly easing their harsh rhetoric against Putin's actions.
Speculation is now rampant over the purpose of the Putin-Trump discussion. Key questions remain unanswered: What will they discuss? Will this call formalize a Russian victory and signal the end of the war? This move is particularly significant given Trump's previous vow to end the war in "24 hours," a promise he has struggled to fulfill since taking office. The world is watching to see if this phone call will reshape global security and determine the final fate of Ukraine.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stunned NATO and EU allies after rejecting proposed sanctions on Russian energy, calling them âideologicalâ and harmful to Slovakiaâs economy. At a press conference, Fico questioned why Slovakia should pay high gas prices due to the Ukraine conflict, citing a âŹ16â20 billion contract with Gazprom lasting until 2034. He warned of potential lawsuits if the contract is broken and predicted that âweâll all cooperate with Russia again.â His remarks underline a growing rift in Europe over energy strategy and long-term Russian ties.

In their first call since the Ukraine war began, Russian President Vladimir Putin confronted French President Emmanuel Macron over Western involvement in the conflict. Putin blamed NATO expansion and years of Western military support for turning Ukraine into an âanti-Russia bridgehead.â He warned Macron that any French troops in Ukraine would be seen as legitimate targets, risking escalation to World War III. Putin reaffirmed Russiaâs terms for peace, insisting any resolution must reflect battlefield realities and end Western interference.
