Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has launched a scathing attack on French President Emmanuel Macron and German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, accusing them of attempting to revive Europe's imperialist past. Speaking at a diplomatic event, Lavrov warned that Western leaders were reverting to their “former instincts” of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between today’s political climate and Nazi-era atrocities.
He further stated that “German and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,” claiming that just as some “burned Jews,” others now “burn Russians.” Lavrov’s remarks come amid intensifying tensions between Moscow and the West over the war in Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing European militarization.
The inflammatory comments are expected to draw condemnation from European capitals but are in line with Russia’s narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism.

Russia has launched a scathing attack on UN Secretary-General António Guterres, accusing him of political bias and acting as a mouthpiece for NATO and the “criminal Kyiv regime.” Moscow condemned Guterres' recent comments on alleged Russian missile and drone strikes that supposedly caused a power outage at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant.
Russia insists the real culprits were Ukrainian militants and blasted the IAEA for ignoring those attacks in its reports. The Russian Foreign Ministry said Guterres was spreading “fabricated lies” and violating the UN Charter by favoring one side. Moscow asserts that it ensures the plant's safety and only targets military sites, unlike Kyiv, which it accuses of systematic strikes on civilians. With accusations of double standards and a call to end disinformation, Russia warned that UN officials must return to neutrality or risk losing credibility on the global stage.

Russia launched a brutal overnight assault on Kyiv and surrounding regions, firing 18 missiles and nearly 400 attack and decoy drones in one of the most intense barrages yet. The relentless 10-hour attack caused massive fires, damaged homes and infrastructure, and killed at least two civilians while injuring many more. Thousands sought shelter in metro stations as fireballs lit up the night sky. Despite ongoing peace talks, no progress has been made, and Russia continues to escalate its campaign to break Ukrainian morale with overwhelming drone and missile strikes. Watch the full breakdown of the attack, its impact, and what it means for the future of the conflict.

As Trump pledges 10 Patriot missiles to Kyiv, the EU is preparing a massive €100 billion support plan for Ukraine, potentially the largest in the war. Framed as the final phase against Putin’s forces, the package—slated to begin in 2028—would blend grants and soft loans tied to reforms. Proposed under the EU’s next seven-year budget, it signals long-term Western backing. Moscow decries the move as NATO-driven escalation, warning it exposes the EU’s dependency on U.S. strategy.
