Trump Pulls Plug On Russia Talks? Moscow FUMES As Hopes For Diplomatic Thaw Crash Again
Russia has revealed that Washington has “postponed” a crucial third round of consultations aimed at resolving bilateral irritants, according to Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova.
The talks, initially expected to build on earlier rounds held in Istanbul in February and April, are seen as essential for easing growing U.S.–Russia tensions.
While the U.S. hasn't formally canceled the negotiations, the delay has sparked speculation over Washington’s intent and diplomatic posture.
Zakharova emphasized that contacts remain active behind the scenes and that Moscow still perceives interest from the U.S. in improving ties.
The “irritant removal” dialogue, seen as a rare platform amid escalating rhetoric, now faces renewed uncertainty.
Is Washington backing away or recalibrating its approach?
Russia has issued a dire warning to Israel following reported strikes on Iran’s Bushehr nuclear plant, calling the attack potentially catastrophic—comparable to Chernobyl. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova condemned any further strikes on Iran’s "peaceful" nuclear sites, citing the risk to Russian scientists stationed at Bushehr. Moscow has also warned the U.S. against military involvement, threatening “unpredictable consequences.” While Israel has neither confirmed nor denied the strike, the incident has sparked global alarm and intensified the nuclear crisis in the region.

Tensions explode as Russia accuses Israel of targeting Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities, not military ones. In a chilling warning, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova says the world is now “millimeters away from catastrophe.” Speaking at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum, Zakharova called Israel’s attacks on Iranian nuclear infrastructure a “monstrous game” that risks spiraling into an uncontrollable global conflict.

The Kremlin has intensified its criticism of French President Emmanuel Macron, alleging that France's support for Ukraine includes backing neo-fascist elements. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova cited reports of French nationals fighting in Ukraine's 'International Revenge' unit, accusing them of harboring neo-Nazi ideologies. France has denied these claims, labeling them as disinformation. The accusations come amid ongoing tensions over France's military aid to Ukraine and discussions about deploying peacekeepers, raising questions about Macron's commitment to a peaceful resolution.

Russian forces have reportedly captured an intact Ukrainian ‘Leleka’ drone in Zaporizhzhya after forcing it to land with electronic warfare systems. The drone, a critical part of Ukraine’s UAV and electronic warfare arsenal, may now be dissected by Russia to gain strategic advantages. Meanwhile, Ukraine accuses Moscow of abducting children from occupied territories, indoctrinating them, and forcing them to fight against their homeland. As tensions escalate, the U.S. slammed China at the UN for allegedly aiding Russia, sparking another diplomatic clash. Peace remains distant as the war grinds on.

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron’s bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September — making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestine’s 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macron’s decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a “reward for terror” and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it “reckless.” Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it “historic.” Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition.

In a bombshell claim, U.S. President Donald Trump declared that a face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky “is going to happen,” despite the Kremlin drawing a red line. Russia insists such a summit should only occur to finalize a peace deal — not as part of ongoing negotiations.
Trump, who has taken a hard stance on pushing peace since taking office in January, recently threatened 100% secondary tariffs on Russia’s trading partners if no resolution is reached within 50 days. Meanwhile, Moscow demands Ukraine lift martial law, recognize territorial losses, and hold overdue elections. The Kremlin remains skeptical about Zelensky’s legitimacy post his expired term. While Kyiv has repeatedly pushed for a summit, Moscow says a meeting is only possible once substantial progress has been made. As tensions rise, Trump’s bold assertion adds drama to the already fragile diplomatic theatre unfolding between Russia and Ukraine.

In a major setback for peace in Eastern Europe, the Kremlin has poured cold water on any hopes of a Zelensky–Putin summit in the next 30 days. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declared the meeting “unlikely,” citing irreconcilable differences between Ukraine and Russia’s draft proposals. This comes amid growing U.S. pressure, with President Donald Trump threatening sweeping 100% secondary tariffs on Russia if a peace deal isn't reached by the looming 50-day deadline.
While Zelensky has repeatedly offered to meet Putin face-to-face, Moscow continues to dodge direct engagement. Instead, Russia is sticking to a rigid draft memorandum first introduced in Turkey and refuses to consider Ukraine’s summit request before August-end. Trump, visibly frustrated, warned that the lack of progress could trigger severe economic consequences. With time running out and no summit in sight, the chances of diplomacy are fading fast.

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 China’s geopolitical positioning and its reluctance to leverage influence over Russia. Despite efforts to build trust, Brussels made it clear: Beijing’s stance on Ukraine will define the future of their relations. Dialogue continues, but the cracks are widening as global fault lines deepen.

Iran has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to continuing uranium enrichment as talks with European powers loom in Istanbul on July 25. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that despite the recent US and Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the nation’s atomic program remains a symbol of "national pride" and non‑negotiable sovereignty.
Simultaneously, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed acceptance of a technical delegation from the IAEA in the coming weeks to discuss future cooperation modalities—but 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 JCPOA’s "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 — the famed Black Sea resort city — and its nearby Sirius technological and athletic hub. At least one woman was killed and another seriously injured when drone debris fell in Sochi’s 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. Moscow’s 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 China—just 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 “snapback” sanctions looming, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher.
Will this new Iran–Russia–China axis reshape the global balance of power? And can Europe force Iran back into compliance—or will diplomacy collapse once again?
