India Slams Turkey For Backing Pak, Urges Action Against Cross-Border Terrorism: 'Relations Are Built On...'
Following the recent antisemitic attack in Boulder, Colorado, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued a stern warning to individuals linked to terrorism. Rubio stated that under the Trump administration, "all terrorists, their family members, and terrorist sympathizers here on a visa should know that we will find you, revoke your visa, and deport you"
The attack involved Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national who had overstayed his B2 tourist visa. Soliman allegedly used a flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to assault attendees of a pro-Israel rally, injuring 12 people, including an 88-year-old Holocaust survivor.

Xi Mingze, Chinese President Xi Jinping’s only daughter, is back in headlines amid US-China tensions. The Harvard-educated Xi reportedly resides in Massachusetts under tight security. Her speculated presence in the US draws fresh attention as Washington moves to revoke student visas linked to the Chinese Communist Party. With Trump targeting Harvard over non-compliance and Marco Rubio pushing stricter visa policies, Xi Mingze’s future in the US looks uncertain. Beijing has slammed the decision, demanding answers. Reports also suggest she may now be a research student in Cambridge.

China has lodged a formal protest against the U.S. decision to cancel visas for Chinese students, calling the policy “unreasonable” and discriminatory under the pretext of ideology. The move, announced by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, targets Chinese students with CCP ties or studying sensitive fields like AI and biotech. With over 277,000 Chinese students enrolled in U.S. universities, this aggressive visa revocation threatens to disrupt education, research, and bilateral relations, sparking fear and uncertainty among thousands of Chinese STEM students.

The U.S. is ramping up its anti-China stance with new visa restrictions targeting Chinese students. Senator Marco Rubio revealed plans to revoke visas of students with alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party or sensitive academic fields. China has condemned the move, accusing the U.S. of politicizing education and harming international cooperation. With Chinese students making up the second-largest international group in the U.S., these policies could disrupt academic institutions and worsen U.S.-China relations. The State Department has also paused new interviews and expanded social media screening for applicants.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Quad nations — the US, Japan, and Australia — of dragging India into a de facto military alliance, despite Delhi’s stated focus on economic ties. Speaking at a Eurasian security forum, Lavrov warned of coordinated naval drills aimed at militarizing Quad beyond its original scope. He also pushed to revive the dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral platform, asserting that Western powers are deliberately stoking Indo-China tensions by reframing the region as "Indo-Pacific" with anti-China goals. His remarks signal Moscow’s shifting strategic focus in Asia.

In a fiery UN Security Council address, Russia’s envoy Vassily Nebenzia accused Ukrainian President Zelensky of clinging to power by avoiding elections and embezzling billions in Western aid. He claimed European nations are forcing Kyiv to fight until the last Ukrainian falls, all while pushing their anti-Russia agenda. With Ukraine allegedly nearing collapse, Russia says the West is prolonging a "senseless meat grinder" of war. The scathing remarks reflect Moscow’s escalating rhetorical offensive amid deepening global divides over the Ukraine conflict.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić has ordered a full probe and vowed to halt any arms exports if private firms are involved after Russia accused that Serbia secretly supplied weapons to Ukraine. The Report by Russian Intel has triggered political uproar in Belgrade. Russian intel alleges hundreds of thousands of shells and small arms rounds reached Kyiv via intermediaries across Europe and Africa. Past Pentagon leaks and Financial Times reports echo similar claims, despite Serbian officials denying direct involvement and blaming rogue intermediaries for unauthorized arms transfers.

President Trump was not informed in advance about Ukraine’s bold drone offensive—Operation Spiderweb—which targeted four Russian air bases and damaged over 40 bombers. The White House, via Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, confirmed Trump’s exclusion following reports from Axios and Ukrainian officials. The June 1 operation, coordinated by Ukraine’s Security Service using smuggled FPV drones, struck deep within Russian territory. The revelation raises key questions about U.S.-Ukraine intelligence sharing and Trump’s role in global security decisions as he heads into the 2024 election spotlight.

Russia has threatened massive retaliation after Ukraine destroyed 40 of its bombers in the daring Op ‘Spider’s Web’. With France, the UK, and Germany vowing to defend Ukraine, any Russian strike could trigger NATO’s Article 5—turning a regional conflict into World War III. This explainer compares the military strength of Russia and NATO across budget, personnel, air/naval power, and nuclear capabilities. While NATO holds a clear edge overall, Russia’s unmatched nuclear arsenal makes global escalation a terrifying possibility.

Despite sanctions and pledges to support Ukraine, the EU remains Russia’s biggest fossil fuel customer—spending over €209 billion since 2022. Russia has earned an estimated €885 billion from fossil fuel exports during the war. Donald Trump claimed Europe funds Russia more than it funds Ukraine—an assertion backed by data. While official EU oil imports dropped, pipeline gas and LNG purchases continue, some via shadow fleets. Critics argue this energy dependence prolongs the war and undermines Europe’s stance against Moscow.

U.S. President Donald Trump hailed the election of Karol Nawrocki as Poland's Next President. Trump who had publicly endorsed Nawrocki and met him before the election, celebrated the win, calling him a key ally. Trump claimed the victory "shocked all in Europe." Nawrocki's campaign echoed Trump’s rhetoric—promising to restore “normality,” take a tougher stance on Ukrainian refugees, and deepen U.S.-Poland ties. U.S. Homeland Security Chief Kristi Noem also backed Nawrocki, signaling potential military cooperation expansion.

Ukraine has declared a nationwide air alert after Russian MiG-31K jets—capable of carrying Kinzhal aeroballistic missiles—took off, sparking immediate concern of long-range strikes. The Ukrainian Air Force urged civilians to seek shelter. This comes in retaliation for Ukraine’s drone attack on Russian bomber bases, which destroyed over 40 aircraft. Overnight, Russia launched waves of drone strikes on Ukrainian cities, including Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Chernihiv, causing casualties. Failed peace talks in Istanbul and Putin's silence since the air base losses signal deepening conflict and an unpredictable escalation ahead.

The Russia-Ukraine war has reached a boiling point. Ukrainian drone strikes late Monday knocked out power across multiple Russian regions, with Zaporozhye and Kherson plunging into darkness. Over 104,000 people were left without electricity, and hospitals are relying on backup generators. The strikes came just hours after failed peace talks in Istanbul, with Kyiv rejecting Moscow's demands. As both sides escalate militarily, Ukraine appears undeterred by the threat of a greater Russian offensive. The conflict is entering a critical, unpredictable phase.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has outrightly rejected Russia’s 2–3 day ceasefire proposal, calling it a "tactic" and branding Russian officials as "idiots." The offer, presented during peace talks in Istanbul, aimed to recover bodies from grey zones for “Christian burial.” Russia also handed over a draft peace memorandum, which Zelensky dismissed as an “ultimatum.” With Russia reportedly prepping nuclear-capable Oreshnik missiles, Zelensky urged the U.S. for more sanctions. Has Zelensky's move put the earth on the brink of World War III?

In a rare gesture of mutual concession, Russia and Ukraine have agreed to swap 6,000 fallen soldiers—three years into a brutal war that has killed tens of thousands. The body exchange agreement was struck during fragile peace talks in Istanbul that lasted barely an hour, following Ukraine’s unprecedented drone strikes deep inside Russian territory. Though hailed by Kyiv as a “brilliant operation,” the strikes failed to generate real diplomatic momentum. With air raids escalating and troops drained, both sides remain locked in a grinding deadlock that diplomacy alone seems unable to resolve.

Elon Musk has publicly slammed Donald Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill," calling it a “disgusting abomination” and “pork-filled” in a scathing post on X. This marks Musk’s first major public disagreement with Trump since stepping away from his advisory role. Despite the backlash, the White House stood firm. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Musk’s stance “doesn’t change the President’s opinion.” As political and business worlds collide, this clash highlights growing tension between Trump and one of his most high-profile former allies.
