Paris erupted in anger as pro-Palestinian protesters carried plastic skeletons, baby shrouds, and peace doves to expose Israelâs Gaza famine and ongoing genocide. Chants of âIsrael get out, Palestine is not yoursâ echoed across the French capital. Demonstrators accused Israel of war crimes, condemned the killing of journalists, and demanded sanctions and urgent humanitarian aid. Meanwhile, Emmanuel Macron backed a two-state solution under rising international pressure. With nearly 63,000 Palestinians killed since October 2023, the streets of Paris sent a clear message: the world will not stay silent.

World powers are aligning against the U.S. as Trumpâs aggressive tariff policies fuel backlash. At the upcoming SCO summit in China, leaders including Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Narendra Modi will present a united front against Western dominance. Trumpâs penalties on India and Brazil have only pushed them closer to the anti-Western bloc, with Russia emerging as the common thread binding these nations. Experts warn that tariffs may not only damage U.S. economic ties but also accelerate the rise of a multipolar world order.

The prospect of a Putin-Zelensky peace summit has collapsed into chaos following Russiaâs devastating strike on Kyiv that killed 19 people, including four children. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared there would be âno summit, only blood, missiles and broken promises,â while Ukraine retaliated with drone attacks on Russian oil refineries. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz bluntly confirmed there would âobviouslyâ be no summit despite Donald Trumpâs dramatic push after his Alaska meeting with Putin. Moscow insists talks can only happen after âtangible progress,â something Kyiv and NATO allies reject outright. The collapse highlights the crumbling state of diplomacy in Europe, where leaders now openly prepare for wider war. Trump had hoped to position himself as a peacemaker, but European officials dismissed his roadmap as unrealistic. With NATO deployments looming and Russia warning of escalation, the world faces a dangerous new turning point.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is pushing back against Donald Trumpâs peace initiative, demanding a Russian ceasefire before any summit with Putin and Zelensky can proceed. Merz warned that credibility of negotiations depends on Moscow halting attacks, urging European leaders to pressure Putin. He confirmed discussions with U.S. and EU partners on security guarantees for Ukraine but cautioned Putinâs participation in talks remains uncertain. While Trump pushes for direct negotiations, Merz insists Europe must play a central role in shaping long-term security arrangements.

Trumpâs latest White House showdown sent shockwaves through global diplomacy. Brushing off Zelenskyâs urgent demand for a ceasefire, Trump instead clashed head-on with German leader Friedrich Merz and French President Emmanuel Macronâleaving allies stunned. With fiery exchanges dominating the Oval Office, Trumpâs rhetoric appeared to tilt toward Putinâs stance, raising urgent questions: Is U.S. policy shifting away from Ukraine and toward Moscow?

A historic confrontation is unfolding in Washington as President Donald Trump meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, joined by key European leaders including Macron, Merz, Meloni, Starmer, von der Leyen, Stubb, and NATOâs Mark Rutte. This comes after Trumpâs Alaska summit with Putin, where he backed a plan for Ukraine to cede Crimea and parts of Donbas, abandon NATO, and accept neutrality. Europe and Kyiv fiercely reject this âsurrender deal,â warning it rewards Russian aggression and threatens NATO itself. Trumpâs transactional âAmerica Firstâ diplomacyâfocused on quick wins and cutting U.S. military spendingâclashes directly with Europeâs push for long-term security and continued military aid. As Russia intensifies strikes, Europe views concessions as catastrophic. Tensions inside the White House are boiling: will this meeting end in compromise, or spark a full-scale rift between America and Europe that could reshape global order?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that Israel will conquer all of Gaza, even if Hamas agrees to a hostage deal, intensifying fears of an unrelenting military campaign. Speaking after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a new offensive on Gaza City, Netanyahu said Hamasâ removal is non-negotiable and compared leaving them in Gaza to leaving Nazis in Berlin. He cited U.S. President Donald Trumpâs backing, noting Trumpâs statement that Hamas âcannot stayâ in Gaza. Despite mounting international condemnation and warnings from the UN and humanitarian groups, Netanyahu dismissed criticism as a âtsunami of anti-Semitism.â The humanitarian toll continues to escalate, with over 62,000 Palestinians reported killed since October 2023. Several nations, including France, are considering recognition of Palestine in response to the crisis. Netanyahu insists the war could end immediately if Hamas disarms, but vowed Israel will not stop short of total conquest.

The Alaska meeting will be the first U.S.-Russia summit since 2021, raising geopolitical tensions across Europe.
