Few expected United States President Donald Trump to abandon Israel during his second term in office, considering how supportive he had been of the Middle Eastern country in his first term. And yet, considering the still-mounting death toll from Israel's genocidal war on Gaza, and the international condemnation that has accompanied it, his continued full-throated support for Israel has unnerved some in the president's base.

After a week of high-stakes diplomacy aimed at halting the war in Ukraine, United States President Donald Trump says he is set on arranging a summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Following separate meetings with both leaders, Trump has ruled out sending US troops to Ukraine, but pledged security guarantees to Kyiv and indicated that Washington could provide air support to reinforce a potential deal.

North Korea will send 6,000 more troops, main battle tanks, and armored personnel carriers as part of its military assistance to Russia in the coming months.

"We see from the United States that they have also realized that Russia does not really want peace," Kaja Kallas told reporters, emphasizing the shift in the US stance towards Russia.
