In a stunning political moment, Vice President JD Vance declared he is “ready to become President” if tragedy ever strikes Donald Trump’s presidency. His remarks come as speculation over Trump’s health intensifies, after viral images showed swelling in his legs and a deep bruise on his hand during a meeting with South Korean President Lee Jae Myung. The White House insisted the marks were caused by forceful handshakes, daily aspirin, and a benign condition — chronic venous insufficiency — common among men in their 70s. Still, the images fueled heated debate over Trump’s fitness. While stressing confidence that Trump will finish his term, Vance said his 200 days as Vice President have been “the best training possible” for the highest office. His dramatic statement has added fuel to Washington’s anxieties as questions swirl about succession, leadership, and America’s political future.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will stand alongside Russia’s Vladimir Putin and China’s Xi Jinping at Beijing’s massive “Victory Day” military parade next week, marking a rare international appearance for the reclusive leader. China’s foreign ministry confirmed Kim’s attendance, calling it a symbol of the nations’ “traditional friendship.” The parade, marking 80 years since China’s war against Japan and the end of World War Two, will showcase thousands of troops, tanks, aircraft, and new anti-drone systems. For Xi, hosting Kim and Putin in Beijing is a major diplomatic win, signaling China’s central role in global geopolitics at a time when US President Donald Trump pushes for talks with both leaders. South Korea’s President Lee Jae Myung has also been invited, raising the possibility of a rare North-South encounter. The spectacle will be closely watched as China displays power and positions itself as the key player in Asia’s balance of power.

US President Donald Trump has sparked controversy by suggesting that the United States should own the land where over 28,500 American troops are stationed in South Korea, instead of continuing under the current lease arrangement. Speaking with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung at the White House, Trump emphasized the massive investment made by the US in building military bases and hinted at renegotiating or taking full control. The proposal raises questions about the future of US-South Korea relations and strategic military deployments in the region.

Former President Donald Trump expressed interest in meeting North Korean leader Kim Jong Un this year, during talks with South Korea’s President Lee Jae Myung at the White House. Trump praised his past relationship with Kim, recalling their historic 2019 meeting at Panmunjom in the Demilitarized Zone. While Trump signaled readiness for renewed diplomacy, North Korea has so far ignored his outreach, continuing to criticize U.S.-South Korea joint military drills. Analysts say Trump’s remarks could mark an attempt to revive stalled talks with Pyongyang.

India has doubled down on its decision to continue purchasing discounted Russian crude oil despite U.S. President Donald Trump's remarks suggesting New Delhi may halt such imports. Indian state-owned refiners reaffirmed that sourcing oil from Russia remains a strategic, price-driven choice essential for the country’s energy security, given its 85% crude import dependence. Officials emphasized that Russian oil is not under international sanctions and purchases comply with the G7/EU price cap mechanism, ensuring global markets remain liquid and prices stable. Sources argue that India's imports prevented oil prices from soaring above the March 2022 peak of $137 a barrel amid OPEC+ cuts. Meanwhile, reports of suspended purchases were dismissed, with officials highlighting the EU’s own high intake of Russian LNG. India insists its decisions are guided by national interest while contributing positively to global energy stability, even as Washington hints at possible penalties.

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch said: “We just heard that inflation is up again, the worst in the G7. We left him with 2% inflation. We have borrowing up, unemployment up, taxes are up (..) his budget last year had high taxes. That’s why the economy is contracting.” Sir Keir Starmer replied: “I think of the working people across this country who put in every day and don’t get back what they deserve, and that’s who we’re working for. That’s who we’re fixing the country (for).”

The geopolitical stage is set for a major confrontation as the BRICS alliance prepares for its 2025 summit in Brazil. The bloc, which will include ten member nations, is openly challenging the long-standing economic hegemony of the United States. With members like China, Russia, and Brazil leading the charge, BRICS now represents a formidable force, accounting for 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP. The group's primary objective is to reduce its dependency on the U.S. dollar by promoting trade in local currencies and developing alternative financial systems.
The tension has escalated dramatically following a direct threat from former U.S. President Donald Trump. He warned that any nation aligning with BRICS' anti-dollar policies would face severe consequences, including a blanket 10% tariff with "no exceptions." This aggressive stance is a clear signal that the U.S. views the rise of BRICS as a direct threat to its ability to impose sanctions and control global financial networks like SWIFT.
In response to the mounting criticism and Trump's threats, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Mao Ning, has publicly pushed back. While rejecting claims that BRICS is an "anti-American" coalition, she firmly stated that the mechanism is not targeted at any single country. However, she also reiterated China's long-standing opposition to "tariff wars and trade wars," sending a clear message to Washington. This high-stakes diplomatic battle between the established G7 powers and the rising BRICS alliance could reshape the future of the global economy.

Trump Vs BRICS: In a move set to rattle global markets, former President Donald Trump has issued a severe warning to the BRICS nations and their allies. He threatens to impose a blanket 10% tariff on any country adopting what he terms "anti-American" policies backed by the bloc. This declaration comes after the 2025 BRICS Summit in Brazil, where the member nations, now numbering ten, issued a joint condemnation of recent US-Israel strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, calling them "illegal."
The BRICS bloc, now representing 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP, has become a significant geopolitical force. In their summit, they also criticized the West's "double standards" on global terror, specifically citing the Pahalgam attack in Kashmir as an example. This direct reference brings the conflict to India's doorstep. Trump claims the tariff letters for 12 countries are already "signed and ready," though sources suggest this could be a strategic bluff to test the bloc's unity.
This escalating tension is rooted in BRICS's core mission: to reduce dependence on the U.S. dollar. With their internal trade hitting $1 trillion in 2025 through local currency systems, the bloc, heavily influenced by China and Russia, is seen as a direct challenge to America's sanctions power and its dominance via institutions like the IMF and G7. For Trump, the bloc's growing anti-West stance and expanding economic influence represents a primary threat to American global leadership, setting the stage for a potential economic war.
