Russia-Ukraine War

The leaders of Russia and the United States are set to meet in Budapest on an as yet undisclosed date for negotiations to bring an end to the war in Ukraine.

The visit comes a day after Trump said he had a ’very productive' call with Putin that lasted over two hours.

The legislation would require 500 percent tariffs on any country that buys oil or uranium from Russia, apart from imposing other sanctions on officials.

The call came a day before Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s scheduled White House visit as part of a renewed push to resolve the war in Eastern Europe.

A new version of the ground-based Tomahawk was prototyped by the U.S. Army in 2023 and deployed to the Philippines in 2025.

Defence officials did raise concerns about Russian-North Korean links in the region.

‘Japan will do what it can,’ the Japanese finance minister told reporters.

‘Now is the time to end this tragic war, stop the needless bloodshed, and come to the peace table,’ Hegseth said.

Moscow claims to be using precision weapons against energy sites used for military purposes.

The meeting follows back-to-back calls between the two leaders as Ukraine pleads for long-range weapon transfers amid ongoing Russian attacks.

Zelenskyy, meanwhile, said Ukrainian forces were taking ground in the southeastern Zaporizhzhia region.

President Donald Trump said the Tomahawks would be ‘a new step of aggression’ if they were provided to Ukraine.

He hinted at new strategic systems and possible nuclear tests, as experts warn that the lapse of the last major arms pact could spark a new arms race.

Melania Trump sent a letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin in August seeking his assistance.

Thousands in the Ukrainian capital were left without power as a result of the overnight assault.

Primary among Europe’s strategies is the ‘drone wall,’ a proposed system to detect, track, and intercept unmanned aerial vehicles violating the bloc’s airspace.

The president said he wants Ukraine to answer some questions about how it would use the weapons before finalizing his decision.

A Ukraine Foreign Intelligence Agency official said there is evidence of China helping to identify targets in Ukraine.

‘This will lead to the destruction of our relations, or at least the positive trends that have emerged in these relations,’ Putin said.
