Europe Publicly SUPPORTS US’ Ukraine Peace Plan But Privately PRESSURES Kiev To Escalate War? [Video]

Europe Publicly SUPPORTS US’ Ukraine Peace Plan But Privately PRESSURES Kiev To Escalate War?

White House is pointing fingers at Europe, accusing EU leaders of obstructing Ukraine peace talks with what it calls “unreasonable” and “fairy-tale” demands. According to Axios, senior US officials say some European governments publicly endorse President Donald Trump’s peace drive while privately pushing Kiev toward unrealistic conditions, prolonging the war. Trump, fresh from his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin and meetings with Volodymyr Zelensky, is pressing for a lasting peace deal—not just a ceasefire. But frustration is mounting in Washington, with officials warning Europe against escalating while leaving America to pay the cost. The Atlantic reported that Trump has grown impatient with both Kiev’s unwillingness to make concessions and EU refusal to back what he calls a “realistic outcome.” Moscow, meanwhile, insists on neutrality for Ukraine, rejection of NATO expansion, and recognition of new territorial realities, including Crimea and Donbass as part of Russia. #Trump #EU #Ukraine #Putin #Zelensky #Russia #US #NATO #UkrainePeace #BreakingNews #Moscow #Kyiv #Washington #Europe #Conflict #Diplomacy #UkraineWar #PeaceTalks #Axios #TheAtlantic ~HT.410~GR.124~

NATO-Russia Full Blown Conflict: Russia Issues CHILLING WARNING To Bulgaria Over Black Sea Tensions [Video]

NATO-Russia Full Blown Conflict: Russia Issues CHILLING WARNING To Bulgaria Over Black Sea Tensions

Russia has issued a sharp warning to Bulgaria after the Bulgarian Parliament labeled Moscow a “state sponsor of terrorism” and seized Russian property. The Kremlin condemned the move as a product of EU-driven Russophobia, calling it a provocation that “won’t go unanswered.” With NATO backing Bulgaria and tensions rising in the Black Sea, fears of escalation grow. Though a full-blown conflict is unlikely, hybrid threats remain. Russia's fleet still holds Kalibr missile power, while Bulgaria, backed by NATO, braces for any threat near its modernizing navy. #Russia #Bulgaria #BlackSeaTensions #Putin #NATO #Geopolitics #WarThreat #KalibrMissiles #BulgariaNavy #HybridWarfare #Article5 #EU #RussiaUkraineWar #PutinWarning #Bosphorus #NavalConflict #Moscow #RussianFleet #MilitaryTensions #DefenseNews #BreakingNews #GlobalSecurity #NATONews #EasternEurope #BalticCrisis #BlackSeaCrisis #NATOvsRussia #UkraineWar #WarZone #SecurityAlert #MilitaryEscalation Also Read Hawaii Tsunami Warning: Next Waves Could Reach Up to 10 Feet, Say Officials :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hawaii-tsunami-warning-next-waves-could-reach-up-to-10-feet-say-officials-011-7815551.html?ref=DMDesc India Tsunami Warning?
