In a bold rebuke of NATO dynamics, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has called out European allies for falling short on defense spending. Labeling them âjunior partners,â Rubio pushed for a drastic hikeâup to 5% of GDPâto maintain NATOâs credibility. At his first NATO foreign ministers meeting, he reassured US commitment but demanded others pull their weight. Echoing this, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned Europe that US protection is no longer guaranteed unless NATO nations step up. The upcoming June summit will directly address these simmering tensions.

Colonel Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended from command at Fort McCoy after the base failed to display official portraits of President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The glaring omission sparked backlash when empty frames were spotted on the command wall. Defense officials launched an immediate investigation, and the Department of Defense later updated the wall, saying âwe fixed it.â Secretary Hegseth confirmed the suspension on X. The military called it an âunusual oversight,â but refused to share further details about the decision.

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev claims that Western European leaders are waging a âquiet warâ against former President Trump. He suggests that ideological conflicts, particularly over tariffs and NATO disagreements, are driving a wedge between the U.S. and Europe. Medvedev predicts that despite Europeâs large economy, the U.S. will emerge victorious due to its superior economic and military strength. He also highlighted the growing divide between Europe's neo-globalist forces and Trumpâs conservative, traditionalist movement, which is paving the way for a potential reconciliation with Russia.

Chinese scientists have unveiled a powerful quantum sensor that could tip the balance in undersea warfare. Tested offshore, the drone-mounted system achieves picotesla-level precision, tracking submarines and mapping seabed resources with unprecedented accuracy. The breakthrough overcomes limitations of traditional magnetometers, offering omnidirectional detection even in low-latitude blind zones like the South China Sea. Using coherent population trapping in rubidium atoms, the new Chinese sensor rivals NATOâs MAD-XR at a fraction of the cost, potentially reshaping anti-submarine operations across key strategic waters.

A confidential U.S. peace proposal to end the Ukraine war was secretly presented by envoy Steve Witkoff to European officials in Paris on April 17, 2025. The leaked plan includes a permanent ceasefire, Ukraineâs NATO exit, U.S. recognition of Crimea as Russian territory, and economic benefits for both Kyiv and Moscow. Ukraine would regain limited territory and receive financial aid, while Russia would benefit from lifted sanctions. The plan, labeled Washingtonâs âfinal offer,â signals a dramatic shift in U.S. diplomacy. Both Russia and Ukraine have yet to issue formal responses.
