The EU-China summit in Beijing ended early as tensions soared over China's deepening alliance with Russia amid the Ukraine war. Despite efforts to focus on trade, climate change, and rare earth supply cooperation, the shadow of Moscow loomed large. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned that Beijing's refusal to distance itself from Russia is now the main stumbling block in EU-China relations.
Chinese President Xi Jinping countered with calls for multipolar cooperation and downplayed Western concerns. While there was some progress on rare earth mineral exports and climate action, trade imbalances and mutual investigations remain flashpoints. The summit reflected a growing unease in Europe over Chinaās geopolitical positioning and its reluctance to leverage influence over Russia. Despite efforts to build trust, Brussels made it clear: Beijingās stance on Ukraine will define the future of their relations. Dialogue continues, but the cracks are widening as global fault lines deepen.

Mass protests have erupted in Kyiv, Lviv, and other Ukrainian cities despite martial law, with demonstrators accusing President Zelensky of betraying democratic ideals. Anger surged after parliament passed a law curtailing two key anti-corruption agencies, handing more power to a presidentially appointed prosecutor general. Critics warn the move threatens Ukraineās EU membership path, undermines reforms, and signals a drift toward authoritarianism. Protesters chanted āWe chose Europe, not autocracy,ā while Zelensky defended the law as a way to remove Russian influence, deepening divisions amid an ongoing war with Moscow.

In a dramatic shift on the global chessboard, Israel and Ukraine have agreed to initiate a joint dialogue aimed at neutralizing the growing threat posed by Iran. Both nationsāhaunted by Iranās military exports and nuclear ambitionsāannounced the new cooperation in Kyiv during Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saarās visit. Ukraine accuses Iran of fuelling Russiaās war machine with kamikaze drones, while Israel views Iranās nuclear program as an existential threat.
Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga of Ukraine declared Iran a āglobal security menace,ā and thanked Israel for its surprise strike on Iranian military targets last month. The move marks a pivotal tightening of IsraelāUkraine ties, despite past tensions over Israelās neutrality in the Russia-Ukraine war. Both countries have now drawn a clear red line around Tehranās expanding influenceāand plan to counter it. The anti-Iran dialogue could reshape the Middle EastāEastern Europe dynamic in the months ahead.

Iran has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to continuing uranium enrichment as talks with European powers loom in Istanbul on JulyāÆ25. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that despite the recent US and Israeli strikes on Iranās nuclear facilities, the nationās atomic program remains a symbol of "national pride" and nonānegotiable sovereignty.
Simultaneously, Iranās Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed acceptance of a technical delegation from the IAEA in the coming weeks to discuss future cooperation modalitiesābut clarified they will not inspect nuclear sites or facilities.
European leaders from the UK, France, and Germany are set to press for an extension or activation of the JCPOAās "snapback" sanctions mechanism unless Iran makes verifiable concessions, including limiting enriched uranium stockpiles and resuming full cooperation with inspectors. Tehran insists that any renewed US engagement must begin with rebuilding trust and rejecting military covert agendas

In a dramatic escalation, Ukraine launched a wave of drone strikes on southern Russia, targeting Sochi ā the famed Black Sea resort city ā and its nearby Sirius technological and athletic hub. At least one woman was killed and another seriously injured when drone debris fell in Sochiās central streets.
Meanwhile, another UAV slammed into an oil terminal in Sirius, triggering emergency evacuations of students and tourists. Local sources described scenes of chaos, with air raid sirens blaring and as many as 20 explosions echoing across the city. This latest strike comes on the heels of Russia and Ukraine's third round of peace talks in Istanbul, which failed to secure a ceasefire. Moscowās proposal for brief humanitarian truces and a major POW exchange involving 1,200 prisoners each was met with skepticism from Kyiv. Tensions remain sky-high as drone warfare escalates far from the battlefield, threatening Russian civilians and infrastructure.

As global tensions rise, Iran hosts trilateral nuclear talks with Russia and Chinaājust days before a critical summit with European powers in Istanbul. The U.S., once central to negotiations, now watches from the sidelines as Tehran rejects direct dialogue. With the 2015 nuclear deal hanging by a thread and āsnapbackā sanctions looming, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher.
Will this new IranāRussiaāChina axis reshape the global balance of power? And can Europe force Iran back into complianceāor will diplomacy collapse once again?
