Germany CRUSHES Zelensky's Taurus Dream| Merz to Arm Ukraine With This Long-Range Strike System
Germany has announced it will soon supply Ukraine with new long-range missile systems, but not the Taurus cruise missiles that Kyiv has long sought.
Despite previous speculation, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius confirmed that Taurus missiles—capable of striking targets up to 500 km away—will not be sent.
Instead, Germany is providing Patriot air defense systems purchased from the U.S. Chancellor Friedrich Merz emphasized that diplomatic avenues with Russia are "exhausted" and vowed to counter what he called a “criminal regime.”

Exiled Ukrainian MP Artyom Dmitruk has accused President Volodymyr Zelensky’s government of orchestrating the assassination of far-right politician Andrey Parubiy, who was gunned down in Lviv on Saturday. Dmitruk claims the trail leads directly to Bankova Street, home of the presidential administration, denouncing the investigation as staged. Ukrainian police are probing possible Russian involvement, while Russian diplomat Rodion Miroshnik alleged Parubiy was eliminated to ease future peace talks. The killing has ignited fierce blame games, exposing deep divisions in Ukraine’s politics and war strategy.

U.S. President Donald Trump is signaling a tougher stance on Russia as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned that all options remain open for new sanctions amid Moscow’s intensified bombardment of Ukraine. Bessent called Putin’s actions “despicable and defiant,” marking the strongest hint yet of looming economic penalties. Despite Trump’s earlier hopes for diplomacy after his Alaska summit with Putin, frustration is mounting as Russian strikes escalate, fueling speculation that sanctions—or even broader confrontation—could push the U.S. and Russia closer to all-out conflict.

The prospect of a Putin-Zelensky peace summit has collapsed into chaos following Russia’s devastating strike on Kyiv that killed 19 people, including four children. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared there would be “no summit, only blood, missiles and broken promises,” while Ukraine retaliated with drone attacks on Russian oil refineries. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz bluntly confirmed there would “obviously” be no summit despite Donald Trump’s dramatic push after his Alaska meeting with Putin. Moscow insists talks can only happen after “tangible progress,” something Kyiv and NATO allies reject outright. The collapse highlights the crumbling state of diplomacy in Europe, where leaders now openly prepare for wider war. Trump had hoped to position himself as a peacemaker, but European officials dismissed his roadmap as unrealistic. With NATO deployments looming and Russia warning of escalation, the world faces a dangerous new turning point.

In a major geopolitical and energy shift, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping announced a deal to build the “Power of Siberia-2” pipeline, delivering 50 bcm of gas annually via Mongolia to China. Gazprom hailed it as the world’s most ambitious gas project, alongside an 8 bcm expansion through existing routes. While pricing details remain unresolved, the deal cements China as Russia’s top energy buyer after Europe cut reliance, bolstering Moscow’s war economy and stunning the West.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is pushing back against Donald Trump’s peace initiative, demanding a Russian ceasefire before any summit with Putin and Zelensky can proceed. Merz warned that credibility of negotiations depends on Moscow halting attacks, urging European leaders to pressure Putin. He confirmed discussions with U.S. and EU partners on security guarantees for Ukraine but cautioned Putin’s participation in talks remains uncertain. While Trump pushes for direct negotiations, Merz insists Europe must play a central role in shaping long-term security arrangements.

Trump’s latest White House showdown sent shockwaves through global diplomacy. Brushing off Zelensky’s urgent demand for a ceasefire, Trump instead clashed head-on with German leader Friedrich Merz and French President Emmanuel Macron—leaving allies stunned. With fiery exchanges dominating the Oval Office, Trump’s rhetoric appeared to tilt toward Putin’s stance, raising urgent questions: Is U.S. policy shifting away from Ukraine and toward Moscow?

A historic confrontation is unfolding in Washington as President Donald Trump meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, joined by key European leaders including Macron, Merz, Meloni, Starmer, von der Leyen, Stubb, and NATO’s Mark Rutte. This comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he backed a plan for Ukraine to cede Crimea and parts of Donbas, abandon NATO, and accept neutrality. Europe and Kyiv fiercely reject this “surrender deal,” warning it rewards Russian aggression and threatens NATO itself. Trump’s transactional “America First” diplomacy—focused on quick wins and cutting U.S. military spending—clashes directly with Europe’s push for long-term security and continued military aid. As Russia intensifies strikes, Europe views concessions as catastrophic. Tensions inside the White House are boiling: will this meeting end in compromise, or spark a full-scale rift between America and Europe that could reshape global order?

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.

Germany has officially denied Ukraine’s latest request for Taurus cruise missiles, citing NATO obligations and escalation concerns. Defense Minister Boris Pistorius confirmed the long-range system is “off the table” despite intensified Russian airstrikes. Berlin also ruled out sending additional Patriot systems due to depleted reserves. Moscow had warned that Taurus deliveries would destroy ties with Berlin. As Ukraine’s casualties mount and Western weapon supplies dwindle, fears grow of deeper NATO involvement and a potential escalation into a wider regional conflict.

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.

A diplomatic drama is unfolding as US President Donald Trump declared that a trilateral summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky “will happen.” The statement comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he urged a one-on-one between Moscow and Kyiv first. While the Kremlin has not ruled out direct talks, it insists any bilateral must be the final stage once concrete progress is made. Meanwhile, Zelensky has reportedly asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “send the right signal” to Putin, pressing India’s weight as a potential mediator. Kremlin officials confirm flexibility on some issues, but warn NATO’s militarization of Ukraine makes peace elusive. With Putin currently in China, Trump’s bold promise, Kyiv’s appeals to Modi, and Moscow’s warnings against Western “peacekeepers” are shaping a high-stakes diplomatic gamble that could define the next phase of the Ukraine war.

Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region has come under a “massive attack,” according to regional governor Sergiy Lysak, who confirmed explosions in the key cities of Dnipro and Pavlograd. Residents have been urged to take shelter as Russian missiles and drones pound the region. Until now, Dnipropetrovsk had largely escaped the intensity of frontline battles, but the situation has shifted dramatically. Kyiv admitted that Russian forces have crossed into the region, while Moscow boasted of gaining a foothold there. This marks a dangerous expansion of the war, as the region is not among the five Ukrainian territories Russia has officially claimed. The attack raises fears of an intensified campaign in Ukraine’s industrial heartland, signaling that no part of the country is beyond reach. With explosions shaking Dnipro, Ukraine’s fourth-largest city, the strikes are seen as a chilling escalation that could redraw the battlefield once more.
