Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has sparked political shockwaves by refusing to sign the EUās joint statement backing Ukraine, issued just days before the upcoming TrumpāPutin meeting in Alaska. The statement, agreed upon by other EU leaders, emphasized that international borders cannot be changed by force and that peace in Ukraine must include Ukraineās voice. Orban claims the declaration was an attempt to set preconditions for a meeting to which the EU was not invited ā further deepening tensions within Europe ahead of a critical geopolitical summit.

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?

Ukraineās Security Service (SBU) has intercepted a Russian agent caught red-handed planting a bomb in a civilian apartment in Rivne, Western Ukraine. The suspect, a 27-year-old man from Lviv, was allegedly recruited via Telegram by Russian intelligence with promises of āeasy money.ā
The device was intended to be detonated remotely in a densely populated city center, aiming to inflict maximum civilian casualties and spread fear. The suspect now faces terrorism-related charges, conspiracy, and illegal possession of explosives.
Authorities say this plot is part of a wider Russian campaign targeting civilians far from the frontlines, often exploiting vulnerable individuals with criminal or addiction histories. This is yet another stark reminder that Putinās war is not limited to the battlefield.
