Also, Russia blows up peace talks
| | | | WHAT WE'RE WATCHING | | 1. 🇷🇺 Russia all but rejects Trump's peace initiative. Speaking to the press, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov demanded that Russia have a veto on any future security guarantees for Ukraine, and also indicated that President Vladimir Putin was not yet ready to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This comes as Russia struck an American factory in western Ukraine, signaling peace talks are all but dead. | 2. 🇬🇧 Nigel Farage is calling for mass deportations. The leader of the populist-right Reform UK Party announced that he will seek to deport hundreds of thousands of migrants from his country if his party is elected in the UK's next elections, calling their presence a "national security threat." Currently, the Reform UK Party is leading in the polls. | 3. 🇮🇱 Israel wants to hold talks during the Gaza City operation. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is siding with the Trump administration's call for a comprehensive hostage deal as the Israelis move forward to conquer Gaza City. Hamas previously agreed to a deal that would have released half of the hostages; President Donald Trump recently indicated that fewer than 20 remain alive. | 4. 🇰🇵 North Korea built a secret base with missiles that can reach the US. The base, built near the country's border with China, was previously undeclared by the North Koreans and has been in operation for at least ten years. While North Korea has far fewer nuclear missiles than the United States, it still likely possesses at least 50 ICBMs. |
