A geopolitical showdown is brewing over the venue for the proposed Trump–Putin–Zelensky trilateral talks.
French President Emmanuel Macron is pushing for Switzerland as neutral ground, while Moscow signals readiness to host the summit on its own turf.
With Trump holding the final say, the decision could reshape the optics of peace negotiations

A major rift has erupted in Europe as Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni reportedly clashed with French President Emmanuel Macron over the possibility of sending Western troops to Ukraine. According to Corriere della Sera, Macron pushed for a European deployment, while Meloni sharply opposed the idea, warning that Russia’s massive army made such moves unrealistic. “How many soldiers should we send to match 1.3 million Russians?” she allegedly asked. The confrontation came just before Meloni, Macron, and other leaders joined Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House for high-stakes talks with Donald Trump following his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin. While Macron continues to float a “coalition of the willing,” Meloni favors NATO-style protections without direct deployment. Germany, Poland, Spain, Romania, and Croatia also reject sending troops, leaving Europe divided as fears grow that NATO boots on the ground could ignite World War III.

As Donald Trump pushes for a three-way peace meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, French President Emmanuel Macron is calling for Europe to be included. Macron argues that security guarantees for Ukraine also affect the entire continent. While Trump seems unlikely to welcome the idea soon, the debate highlights the high stakes for not only Ukraine but also Europe’s security. The talks could shape the trajectory of the war and the balance of power across the region.

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 visible rift between the U.S. and Europe emerged as President Trump skipped the welcome for top EU leaders, leaving Ursula von der Leyen, Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and NATO’s Mark Rutte without a presidential greeting. Instead, Chief of Protocol Monica Crowley received them. The snub comes amid growing disagreements over Ukraine, as Trump pushes for a land swap deal while Europe remains firm against territorial concessions. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, wearing his trademark military jacket, was the focal point of the high-stakes White House meeting.

Muscovites are reacting with a mix of hope, skepticism, and outrage as face-to-face talks between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky are reportedly back on the table. While some see it as a crucial step toward a ceasefire and a potential win-win outcome, others question Zelensky’s legitimacy and doubt any progress can be made. From Red Square to the Kremlin embankment, opinions reveal a city divided over whether these talks could finally end the war—or simply become another stalemate.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt fiercely pushed back at a reporter who accused President Trump of disrespecting Europe during his latest call with Vladimir Putin. The heated exchange turned into a tense briefing-room showdown, highlighting deep divisions over Trump’s approach to Moscow and European allies.

Russia has launched fresh strikes on Ukraine, leaving at least 21 people dead and casting doubt on the prospects of meaningful negotiations. As questions mount over whether Moscow is testing Trump’s resolve or sabotaging peace efforts altogether, the bombing underscores the volatility of the conflict

Zelensky has challenged Vladimir Putin to face-to-face talks — floating the possibility of a land-for-peace deal. The bold move signals Kyiv’s readiness to consider territorial compromises if it ends the war, but also raises alarms about sovereignty, security, and long-term stability. With Russia’s intentions unclear and global powers watching closely, the world now waits to see if Putin will accept Zelensky’s dare

The comments have sparked outrage among Ukraine’s supporters while emboldening Moscow, raising fears that Trump’s approach could reshape the balance of the war

U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a global trade storm by raising tariffs on Canadian imports to 35%, accusing Ottawa of failing to curb fentanyl and drug flows into America. Prime Minister Mark Carney defended Canada’s efforts, but Trump claimed negotiations fell short. The new rate—up from 25%—comes amid broader tariffs hitting dozens of countries.
Despite the USMCA shielding nearly 90% of Canadian exports, key goods like dairy, wood, and leather may still be taxed. Trump spared Mexico for now but warned that other nations—including Taiwan, India, Laos, and even Switzerland—face harsh levies, some as high as 41%. Critics warn of soaring consumer prices and economic disruption, but the White House insists the tariffs are "rebuilding the greatest economy in history." With global trade talks in limbo and retaliations expected, this marks Trump’s boldest move yet in his battle to reset world commerce.

Citing emergency powers and national security concerns, Trump’s executive order targets goods ranging from coffee and textiles to steel and electronics.

What does this mean for global trade, U.S. consumers, and diplomatic relations? We break it all down in this video.

Russia’s war on Ukraine has sparked a domino effect, pushing more European nations toward NATO. Austria, long neutral, is now debating membership as Foreign Minister Beate Meinl-Reisinger warns neutrality no longer ensures security. Joining NATO would end Austria’s historic role as a bridge between East and West, signaling a major geopolitical shift. Analysts say this move could inspire other neutral states like Switzerland and Serbia to reconsider their positions. Instead of weakening NATO, Putin’s war has strengthened and expanded the alliance, isolating Russia further

After Hamas accepted new ceasefire terms to release half of the hostages, Israel has shifted conditions, demanding the release of all 50 remaining captives. The move risks derailing a Qatar- and Egypt-brokered truce. Netanyahu insists war will only end if Hamas disarms, Gaza is demilitarized, and Israeli security control is secured. With over 62,000 killed and Gaza on the brink of famine, Trump’s call for the “full destruction of Hamas” fuels fears of a trilateral conflict involving the U.S., Israel, and Hamas.

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.
