Putin Says He’s ‘Ready’ to Meet Zelensky But Lays Down CHILLING Preconditions; Zelensky STUNNED
Putin has announced he’s open to meeting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky — but only after a series of strict and chilling preconditions are met.
The Kremlin insists that expert-level negotiations must make significant progress first, while also casting doubt on Zelensky’s legitimacy, citing the expiration of his presidential term in 2024.
Ukraine, meanwhile, accuses Russia of using delay tactics to avoid real peace, with Zelensky demanding direct talks and warning the world not to fall for Moscow’s diplomatic trap

Russia claims it has captured the key town of Chasiv Yar in eastern Ukraine after 16 months of brutal fighting. A verified video shows Russian soldiers raising their flag in the devastated ruins, but Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and top military officials have called the claim “disinformation” and “propaganda.” Analysts warn the fall, if true, could allow Russia to edge closer to Kostiantynivka and disrupt Ukrainian logistics. Meanwhile, heavy fighting is reported near Pokrovsk, southwest of Chasiv Yar.
The town, once home to over 12,000 residents, now lies in ruins after months of Russian air raids and ground assaults. As battlefield conditions intensify, U.S. President Trump has warned of new sanctions against Moscow and its trade partners if a ceasefire isn't reached soon. With both sides trading claims and video evidence surfacing, Chasiv Yar may mark a new turning point in the eastern front of the war.

After the fall of Chasiv Yar, Russian forces have seized control of the strategic Konstantinovka–Krasnoarmeisk highway — tightening their grip on eastern Ukraine. With both banks of the Kleban-Bykskoye Reservoir now under Russian control and troops advancing near key settlements, military analysts are questioning whether President Vladimir Putin is nearing a decisive breakthrough in the war. Is Ukraine running out of room to maneuver?

Tensions between the U.S. and Russia are reaching a boiling point as US President Donald Trump claims he’s ordered the deployment of nuclear submarines in response to Russian threats. The Kremlin has fired back, with President Vladimir Putin’s spokesperson warning Washington to “be very cautious” with nuclear rhetoric. As fears of a modern-day Cold War spiral, Trump insists the U.S. is “totally prepared” for a nuclear confrontation — prompting global concern over a potential clash between two nuclear superpowers. Are we on the brink of World War III?

U.S. President Donald Trump has revealed that his special envoy, Steve Witkoff, may visit Russia on August 6 or 7 — just one or two days before the ceasefire deadline he has set for Moscow. If Russia fails to reach a peace deal with Ukraine by August 8, Trump says sweeping secondary tariffs will hit Russian oil and gas exports — and also target countries like India and China that continue to trade with Moscow.
Witkoff, who controversially met President Putin in April, drew criticism for echoing Kremlin narratives and using Russian translators during their talks. Despite his original role as Middle East envoy, Witkoff now appears to be Trump’s unofficial channel to Putin. The pressure is mounting: Trump says sanctions are ready, but also admitted Russia is “pretty good at avoiding them.” A critical moment is approaching, with diplomatic brinkmanship and global trade consequences at stake.

President Donald Trump says he has deployed nuclear submarines near Russia following provocative remarks by former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. As U.S.-Russia tensions escalate, President Putin unveils a hypersonic missile system—Oreshnik—claiming it could rival nuclear strikes. Medvedev and Trump’s online war has triggered fresh World War 3 fears, especially after both leaders made alarming military moves. The Pentagon remains silent, fueling public concern. With nuclear rhetoric surging on both sides, the world watches in anxiety as two of the most powerful nations inch closer to direct confrontation.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is facing intense criticism after allegedly caving to Donald Trump’s aggressive trade demands out of fear that the U.S. might slash military support to Ukraine or withdraw troops from Europe. According to the Sunday Times, von der Leyen accepted a harsh 15% tariff on most EU exports during a visit to Trump’s golf course in Scotland—scrapping a counter-tariff plan her officials had prepared.
Brussels also pledged $600 billion in U.S. investments and $750 billion in American energy purchases. Leaders like Macron and Orban slammed the deal, with the latter claiming Trump “ate her for breakfast.” Backlash is growing in the EU, where von der Leyen faces rebellion over military spending, vaccine scandals, and dwindling parliamentary support. With Trump’s “posture review” looming, the EU’s strategic future hangs in the balance. Critics say this may be von der Leyen’s final chance to recover politically.

In a scathing rebuke, top Trump aide Stephen Miller has accused India of "financing Russia’s war in Ukraine" by continuing to import oil from Moscow. Speaking on Fox News, Miller expressed alarm over India’s near-parity with China in buying Russian crude — calling it an “astonishing fact.” This comes after President Trump, escalating economic pressure, imposed a 25% tariff on Indian goods and warned of a potential 100% tariff on imports from countries dealing with Russia.
Indian officials, however, remain firm on maintaining ties with Moscow for oil purchases. The Indian Embassy in Washington has not responded, but sources told Reuters that New Delhi will not bow to threats. Miller noted Trump's "tremendous" relationship with PM Modi, but the strong rhetoric signals a shift. The stakes are high, and tensions are brewing as Trump's foreign policy sharpens its focus on global alignments.
