BRICS Summit 2025: India takes center stage at the BRICS 2025 Summit in Rio de Janeiro as Prime Minister Narendra Modi leads a powerful charge from the Global South against Trump’s aggressive tariff policy. With 10 nations participating—including new member Indonesia—this year’s summit focuses on fair global governance, climate action, and reforming outdated world institutions like the UN, WTO, and World Bank. As the world’s fastest-growing major economy, India is pushing for a more equitable trade system and calling for collective resistance against economic coercion. Modi’s leadership is not only uniting BRICS but also redefining it—asserting India as the democratic anchor of a bloc once overshadowed by China. India’s role in the New Development Bank and its calls for tech cooperation, sustainable development, and regional peace underscore its rising influence in shaping a new world order.

For the first time since taking power, Chinese President Xi Jinping is skipping the BRICS Summit, sending Premier Li Qiang to Rio de Janeiro in his place. Xi’s absence raises questions amid global trade turmoil and U.S. tariff threats. While China remains committed to the BRICS vision, experts say Xi may be prioritizing domestic challenges over diplomacy this year. Li is expected to strengthen energy ties and promote digital currency cooperation as BRICS expands and positions itself against Western dominance.

China’s President Xi Jinping has approved new Communist Party rules that could signal a shift in leadership dynamics. The Politburo’s move to standardize policymaking and delegate daily responsibilities has sparked speculation about a potential post-Xi transition. While experts caution that this isn’t a power handover, the increasing roles of senior leaders like Li Qiang, Ding Xuexiang, and Cai Qi suggest Xi may be stepping back from micromanagement. Analysts view this as an effort to institutionalize governance amid growing national and global challenges.

U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping held a 90-minute phone call focused “almost entirely on trade,” marking their first direct contact since the U.S. imposed new ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs.

The call comes amid renewed tensions, with both sides accusing each other of violating trade deals. Xi invited Trump to visit China—an offer Trump accepted and reciprocated.

The Russia-Ukraine war has entered a brutal new phase. In July 2025, Russia unleashed its largest-ever aerial assault on Kyiv, a sign of its growing dominance on the battlefield. But how did we get here? This in-depth report from Oneindia News examines the seismic shifts that have given Vladimir Putin the upper hand after years of stalemate.
The primary catalyst was the 2024 U.S. election and the return of Donald Trump. We analyze how Trump's "America First" policy led to a complete halt in military aid to Ukraine, a stark contrast to the billions pumped in under the Joe Biden administration. From Trump's vow to end the war in "24 hours" to backchannel talks with Moscow, his actions effectively isolated Kyiv and gave Russia a green light to escalate its offensive.
Beyond the White House, Russia itself has adapted. Learning from early failures, Moscow embraced a brutal war of attrition, bolstered by massive support from allies like North Korea and Iran, and an economic lifeline from China. With 450,000 new recruits in 2024, Russia’s overwhelming manpower is crushing Ukrainian defenses. Meanwhile, Ukraine is facing a catastrophic crisis of its own. With its military stretched thin, a severe shortage of soldiers and ammunition, and war fatigue setting in, the nation's survival hangs in the balance. Despite innovative tactics like the "Operation Spider's Web" drone strikes, can President Zelenskyy's forces survive without robust Western support?
This video explains the intricate web of geopolitics, military strategy, and leadership changes that define the current state of the war. As Russia pushes forward, we ask the critical question: Is Ukraine's defeat now inevitable?

On July 6, Russian forces launched a calculated drone strike on a military enlistment and recruitment office in Kremenchuk, located in Ukraine's Poltava region. This attack came just hours after Russia conducted one of its largest aerial assaults on Ukraine, involving 157 drones and four S-300 missiles that targeted key regions including Kharkiv, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, and Kyiv, causing significant damage and casualties.
Ukraine's Ground Forces have confirmed that the UAV strike in Kremenchuk hit the recruitment center and also damaged a nearby residential building. While no casualties were reported among military staff or civilians at the enlistment facility, the attack caused a fire at a private property and forced the closure of a major road in the city's central district, disrupting civilian life.
This military escalation occurs amidst a complex geopolitical backdrop. A recent phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and former U.S. President Donald Trump failed to secure a ceasefire. Reports suggest that Putin, believing he has the upper hand in the conflict, is unwilling to halt the offensive and "throw away his lead."
With the date for any further peace talks still undecided, Russia continues its relentless campaign, pounding Ukrainian cities with a massive barrage of missiles and drones. This latest attack on a recruitment center signals a strategic shift to Cripple Ukraine's ability to reinforce its front lines. Stay tuned to Oneindia News for the latest updates on the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

US President Donald Trump has described Russian President Vladimir Putin as “a professional” who has effectively handled Western sanctions amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict. The remarks followed a one-hour phone call between the two leaders where Trump pressed Putin on ending the war. While acknowledging Moscow’s resilience, Trump hinted that tougher sanctions may be on the way if the conflict continues.
The Kremlin reaffirmed its stance, insisting it would not back down from core goals. Meanwhile, a bipartisan bill in the US Senate proposes a staggering 500% tariff on imports from nations buying Russian energy, escalating the economic pressure. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed the bill’s backer, Senator Lindsey Graham, as a “Russophobe,” while reiterating Russia’s view that sanctions are illegal and counterproductive. Despite mounting restrictions since 2014, Russia claims its economy has adjusted and domestic industries have strengthened. The geopolitical standoff shows no signs of cooling.
