Trump meets with Syria's interim president after pledging to lift sanctions on war-torn country
Wednesday, 14 May 2025 () President Trump met with Syria's interim President on Wednesday, a day after lifting sanctions and marking a major policy shift towards peace and rebuilding relations.
During his visit to Saudi Arabia, President Trump met with Syria’s new leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, marking the first such meeting in 25 years. Trump urged Syria to join the Abraham Accords with Israel, expel foreign militants, and take control of ISIS camps run by Kurdish forces. In return, Trump...
Iran has fiercely rebuked former U.S. President Donald Trump after he labeled Iran the “most destructive force” in the Middle East during a speech in Riyadh. Iranian officials, led by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, slammed Trump’s remarks as hypocritical and deceptive—accusing the U.S. of enabling Israeli aggression in Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon while unjustly targeting Iran. Tehran defended its regional role, framing itself as part of the "Resistance Axis" against oppression, and blamed decades of U.S. sanctions and military pressure for Iran’s economic struggles.

Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attend the Ukraine peace talks in Turkey, despite proposing them himself. The Kremlin has instead assigned presidential adviser Vladimir Medinsky to lead the delegation. President Trump is also skipping the summit, lowering hopes for any major breakthrough. While Ukraine’s Zelenskyy had demanded Putin’s presence, he is reportedly en route to Turkey. The US has sent Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other key envoys. A ceasefire proposal and prisoner exchange remain on the table amid the absence of top leaders from the historic talks.

In a dramatic diplomatic shift, the US is reportedly blocking Ukrainian President Zelensky from attending next month’s NATO summit in The Hague. Media reports suggest Ukraine’s membership bid is off the agenda to avoid friction with President Trump, who has ruled out NATO accession for Kiev. While Ukraine may attend minor sessions, it will be sidelined from top-level talks. Meanwhile, only a few non-member nations like Japan and Australia are invited. NATO’s message is clear — Ukraine may be an ally, but not a member, at least not any time soon.

Was this a brilliant display of diplomacy through fast food, or a cheeky nod to Trump’s famous diet? And did Trump accept this gesture, or pull another “coffee refusal” like during his previous visits?
Watch as we break down this viral moment and what it says about U.S.–Saudi relations, Trump’s personal quirks, and the fast-food diplomacy we didn’t see coming.
