Starmer and his allies have no choice but to keep their Trump criticisms implicit

Sky News Saturday, 16 August 2025 ()
Sir Keir Starmer is straining his diplomatic sinews to simultaneously praise Donald Trump's efforts to end the war in Ukraine, while repeating calls for a completely different approach - one which ends the cosy bonhomie with Vladimir Putin, threatens the Russians with sanctions, and puts the Ukrainians back centre stage.

A high-stakes summit in Alaska between Presidents Trump and Putin failed to deliver a breakthrough in ending the war in Ukraine.

Norway’s foreign minister cautioned the summit lacked substance, raising doubts about Moscow’s intentions. #Trump #Putin #AlaskaSummit #UkraineWar #Zelenskyy #KeirStarmer #KajaKallas #USRussia #PeaceTalks #EUWarning #Sanctions #NATO #SecurityGuarantees #Moscow #GlobalDiplomacy #RussiaUkraineWar #WarInUkraine #USPolitics #TrumpSummit #PutinTalks #AnchorageSummit #Geopolitics #DiplomaticDeadlock #UkraineSupport #PeaceEfforts #WorldPolitics #RussiaSanctions #InternationalRelations #TrumpVsPutin #EUUnity Also Read Zelenskyy To Meet Trump In Washington After Alaska Summit With Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/zelenskyy-to-meet-trump-in-washington-after-alaska-summit-with-putin-7831645.html?ref=DMDesc Putin Arrives in Alaska to a Sky Filled With B2 Stealth Bomber, F-22s American Warplanes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/putin-arrives-in-alaska-to-a-sky-filled-with-b2-stealth-bomber-f-22s-american-warplanes-7831409.html?ref=DMDesc India is the Fastest Growing Economy, Naidu Responds to Trump's Claims of a Dead Economy :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-fastest-growing-economy-naidu-response-trump-011-7827075.html?ref=DMDesc

Trump Wastes Millions To Welcome Putin But Nobel Prize Mission Fails | Trump’s Nobel Ambition Looms? [Video]

Trump Wastes Millions To Welcome Putin But Nobel Prize Mission Fails | Trump’s Nobel Ambition Looms?

On August 15, 2025, Donald Trump staged a dramatic red-carpet welcome for Vladimir Putin at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska, hoping to cement his legacy as a global peacemaker. The high-stakes summit, costing millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars, ended without a ceasefire or territorial agreement, dashing Trump’s hopes of securing the Nobel Peace Prize. While Trump hailed “great progress,” critics slammed the event as a costly photo-op that boosted Putin’s global image without concessions. The Nobel ambition looms large—Trump himself admitted only Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky can decide the outcome. But Zelensky, absent from the talks, branded the summit a “failure,” warning peace must not come at Ukraine’s expense. For now, Trump’s Nobel dreams hang by a thread, dependent entirely on Zelensky’s approval of any deal. #TrumpPutinSummit #AlaskaSummit #TrumpNews #PutinNews #Zelensky #UkraineWar #TrumpNobel #PeacePrize #TrumpPutin #AnchorageSummit #USRussia #Geopolitics #TrumpUkraine #BidenVsTrump #WorldNews #UkraineCrisis #Trump2025 #PutinMeeting #DiplomacyFail #NobelPeacePrize ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.124~

‘READY TO KILL RUSSIANS!’ German Defence Min’s CHILLING THREAT | World War 3 soon?

German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius has issued a stark warning to Moscow, declaring German troops are “ready to Kill Russian soldiers” if Russia attacks any NATO member. Speaking in Lithuania, Pistorius emphasized Germany’s duty to defend NATO’s eastern flank and said the Bundeswehr is shifting from deterrence to combat readiness. Citing Russia as an existential threat, he called for increased NATO presence in Eastern Europe. Berlin’s new strategic posture reflects a major departure from post-WWII restraint amid fears of a full-scale NATO-Russia conflict. #GermanyVsRussia #BorisPistorius #NATO #EasternFlank #RussiaThreat #WW3Warning #Bundeswehr #Lithuania #Poland #Baltics #GermanMilitary #Putin #NATOAlliance #WarPreparedness #ColdWar2 #EuropeSecurity #RussiaAggression #GermanyDefence #NATOvsRussia #MilitaryEscalation #Vilnius #BreakingNews #NATODefense #GeopoliticalCrisis #BerlinWarning #PistoriusThreat #RussianAggression #NATOWarning #Zelenskyy #EasternEurope Also Read Pakistan Considering German Missile Shield After Chinese Systems Fail Against BrahMos During Op Sindoor :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-considering-german-missile-shield-after-chinese-systems-fail-against-brahmos-during-op-sind-4178853.html?ref=DMDesc Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc Germany Reaffirms Strong Support for India in Combating Terrorism, Says FM Johann Wadephul :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/germany-supports-india-fight-against-terrorism-011-4175297.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.124~

Big Breaking: Zelensky Used Deadly Chloropicrin Bombs On Russians? Putin To Take Revenge?

Russia accuses Ukraine of chemical warfare after claiming to uncover drone bombs containing chloropicrin, a banned toxic agent, in Donetsk. Russian authorities say the devices, intended for UAV deployment, were found in a Ukrainian weapons cache and filed WMD-related charges. If verified, this would mark a dangerous escalation in the war. Ukraine has not responded to the allegation. Global watchdogs may now face pressure to investigate the use of banned chemical agents in the conflict. #RussiaUkraineWar #ChemicalWeapons #Donetsk #WMDCharges #BreakingNews #Chloropicrin #UkraineConflict #DroneWarfare #FSB #RussiaAccusesUkraine #ChemicalWarfare #UkraineDrones #WarEscalation #EasternUkraine #GlobalSecurity #WarCrimes #BannedAgents #MilitaryConflict #MoDRussia #DroneBombs #ToxicWeapons #ConventionalToChemical #RussiaUkraineTensions ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.420~
