UK announces biggest defence spend plans since Cold War
The prime minister says he will make the UK a “battle-ready nation”, whilst Defence Secretary John Healey has pledged to “create a British Army that is 10 times more lethal”, as the Strategic Defence Review is published.
The government aims to spend 3% of GDP on defence by 2034, although the Treasury has not yet guaranteed to fund it, and some of the UK’s Nato allies say it is not enough.

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?

A secret Western plan to secure post-war Ukraine has been revealed, with France, the UK, and top U.S. generals reportedly shaping a strategy to deploy over 10,000 foreign troops after a peace deal with Russia. The proposal includes training forces for Ukraine’s army and a “reassurance force” to stabilize the nation. President Macron confirmed 26 nations have pledged support, forming a “coalition of the willing.” Moscow strongly opposes the plan, warning that any foreign troops could become legitimate targets.

Germany is on edge as lawmakers roll out a controversial Civil Defense Framework Plan preparing Berlin hospitals to handle more than 100 casualties per day in the event of a war with Russia. Critics warn this signals quiet preparations for a Germany-Russia conflict, as MP Alexander King accuses the government of militarizing healthcare instead of fixing its collapsing system. With NATO tensions rising, many fear Berlin is bracing for a deadly confrontation with Moscow

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has launched a scathing attack on Western-led security guarantees for Ukraine, calling them “worthless without Moscow’s input.” Speaking after a Paris summit hosted by Emmanuel Macron, where 26 nations pledged military backing for Kyiv, Medvedev dismissed the pledges as “complete nonsense” and accused the coalition of ignoring Russia’s role. He further warned that Russia will adjust its military posture along the NATO-Finland border, escalating tensions in Europe as the war in Ukraine enters a dangerous new phase.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has issued a direct warning to Vladimir Putin, declaring that Ukraine now has a “solid basis” for NATO-style Article 5 security guarantees in case of a ceasefire. Speaking in Denmark alongside Nordic-Baltic leaders, Zelensky said Ukraine’s future security must rest on ironclad commitments, not empty promises. With bilateral agreements already in place — including one with Denmark — Kyiv is making it clear: any ceasefire deal must come with NATO-level protection. Will this escalate tensions with Moscow, and how will Putin respond to Ukraine’s defiance?
