In what bordered on an explicit political endorsement, Rubio told Orban that relations between Hungary and the US had entered a golden age and would stay like that for as long as Orban remains in power. If you face financial struggles, if you face things that are impediments to growth, if you face things that threaten the stability of your country,

The top U.S. diplomat praised Orban's leadership, signed a civilian nuclear cooperation agreement with his government and defended issuing Hungary an exemption from U.S. sanctions despite Orban's decision to continue buying Russian energy. "We want this country to do well," said Rubio standing alongside Orban during a news conference in Budapest, "especially as long as you're the prime minister and the leader of this country." "President Trump is deeply committed to your success, because your success is our success," Rubio added.

White House official says Trump sees stability in the Palestinian territory as a goal to achieve peace in the region'. United States President Donald Trump opposes Israel's annexation of the occupied West Bank, a White House official has said. A stable West Bank keeps Israel secure, and is in line with this administration's goal to achieve peace in the region, the official said on Monday, according to the Reuters news agency.

Unlike his 46 predecessors, Donald Trump's political career began with a direct bid for the presidency rather than through a progression of elected or appointed offices. His political trajectory and election as President of the United States were unprecedented. Without a track record in politics, his first term was, by definition, a foray into the ways of Washington and the conduct of international affairs.

It was probably fitting that the first call from someone with genuine power should emanate from Germany, long one of soccer's moral centers. The time has definitely come, German soccer federation vice-president Oke Gottlich told the Hamburger Morgenpost, to seriously consider and discuss a boycott of the 2026 World Cup. What were the justifications for the boycotts of the Olympic Games in the 1980s?

Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

President Trump's tactic of "flooding of the zone" has focused much of the public sphere on issues and events generated by the president's interests and whims, driving the suffering of millions of people into oblivion. Deserved attention is paid to Trump's threats to annex Greenland, his intervention into Venezuela, the imposition of arbitrary and punitive tariffs on European allies, and the assault of ICE on Minneapolis.

I feel like I've been fooled into voting not for an American-first policy, but an expansionist policy, he says. I voted for grocery prices and gas prices to be lowered, something which would have been beneficial to me as a college student. But since none of those costs have been lowered and prices remain largely the same, I feel like I voted for someone who goes around and bullies allies like Denmark with Greenland, and that really annoys me.

But it's hardly a clean break. The U.S. owes more than $130 million to the global health agency, according to WHO. And Trump administration officials acknowledge that they haven't finished working out some issues, such as lost access to data from other countries that could give America an early warning of a new pandemic. The withdrawal will hurt the global response to new outbreaks and will hobble the ability of U.S. scientists and pharmaceutical companies to develop vaccines and medicines against new threats, said Lawrence Gostin, a public health law expert at Georgetown University.
