    Trump asserts Putin and Zelensky seek peace, proposes talks to end war

    Canada Global (Web News) In a major diplomatic move, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed a desire for peace during recent phone calls. Following these discussions, Trump directed top U.S. officials to initiate negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.

    This development comes after Trump’s defense secretary signaled a shift in Washington’s stance, stating that Kyiv must reconsider its NATO ambitions and territorial claims against Russia. The statement marked a significant departure from previous U.S. policy.

    Trump held an hour-long conversation with Putin, during which the Russian leader indicated a willingness to end the war. Trump told reporters that discussions focused on securing a ceasefire in the near future.

    “He wants it to end, but not in a way that leads to renewed fighting months later,” Trump said, adding that both Putin and Zelensky seek peace, and his goal is to stop further bloodshed.

    The Kremlin confirmed that Putin and Trump agreed to meet soon, with Putin extending an invitation to Moscow. Trump, however, stated their first meeting would “probably” take place in Saudi Arabia.

    On his social media platform, Trump announced that Secretary of State Marco Rubio, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and National Security Adviser Michael Waltz would lead peace negotiations.

    Trump also spoke with Zelensky, who later shared on X that they discussed opportunities for peace, Ukraine’s readiness to cooperate, and advancements in drone and technology industries.

    Meanwhile, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated that Ukraine’s pre-2014 borders and NATO membership were “unrealistic goals,” warning that pursuing them would prolong the war and cause more suffering.

    European leaders responded by insisting that Ukraine must actively participate in any negotiations about its future. They reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening Ukraine’s position.

    The diplomatic push follows a recent U.S.-Russia prisoner swap, which saw Moscow release an American teacher in exchange for a Russian cybercrime convict. The Kremlin suggested that such exchanges could help rebuild trust between the two nations.

  • Trudeau says Canada to help Ukraine with another $500M and weapons

    Trudeau says Canada to help Ukraine with another $500M and weapons

    Canada Global (Web News) Canada, according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is pledging an additional $500 million to support Ukraine’s military in its defence against Russian aggression, including by providing more weaponry.

    During an unexpected visit to Kyiv to underscore Canada’s support for the conflict with Russia, Trudeau made the statement.

    He is travelling with Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland. The journey started with the placing of a wreath at a memorial wall honouring Ukrainians who have lost their lives protecting their country.

    Since Russia’s massive invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022, Trudeau has visited the troubled nation twice in secret. This time, he did it in February 2022.

    Just over a year ago, Trudeau made his most recent trip to Ukraine, when he reopened the Canadian Embassy in Kyiv and had his first face-to-face encounter with Zelenskyy since the conflict started.

    Just last month, on the fringes of the G7 meeting in Hiroshima, Japan, Zelenskyy and Trudeau spent some time together as the Ukrainian president resumed his effort to strengthen support among western friends for the protection of his nation.

  • Ukraine says it has nothing to do with Kremlin drone attack

    Ukraine says it has nothing to do with Kremlin drone attack

    Canada Global (Web News) On Wednesday, a top member of the Ukrainian presidential administration claimed that Kiev had nothing to do with any drone strike on the Kremlin and that such activities would only encourage Russia to take more drastic measures.

    The claim that Kyiv was behind the attack and Russia’s detention of accused Ukrainian saboteurs, according to presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak, may be signs that Moscow is getting ready to launch a significant “terrorist” attack against Ukraine in the coming days.

    Most importantly, Ukraine has nothing to do with the drone attacks on the Kremlin. To begin with, Podolyak asserts that striking the Kremlin does not advance any military goals.

    On Wednesday, Russia accused Ukraine of using drones to strike the Kremlin overnight in an unsuccessful bid to assassinate President Vladimir Putin.

    “Reports about an attack on the Kremlin” and the simultaneous alleged capture of Ukrainian saboteurs in Crimea, according to Podolyak, “clearly indicate the preparation of a large-scale terrorist provocation by Russia in the coming days,” he claimed.

  • Russia produces first nuclear warheads for Poseidon super torpedo — TASS

    Russia produces first nuclear warheads for Poseidon super torpedo — TASS

    Canada Global (Web News) According to TASS on Monday, which cited an unnamed defence source, Russia has created the first nuclear warheads for the Poseidon super torpedoes that will be mounted on the Belgorod nuclear submarine.

    The source told TASS that “the first Poseidon ammunition loads have been made and will soon be delivered to the Belgorod submarine.”

    In 2018, Poseidon was originally unveiled by President Vladimir Putin, who described it as a fundamentally different kind of strategic nuclear weapon with a built-in nuclear power source.

    Putin said in his address from 2018 that the torpedo’s range would be limitless and that it could operate at great depths at a speed that would be many times faster than any submarine or other torpedoes.

    They are extremely quiet, highly manoeuvrable, and nearly indestructible to the enemy. Today, there is no weapon in existence that can defeat them, according to Putin.

  • Russia claims it has taken control of Ukraine’s Soledar

    Russia claims it has taken control of Ukraine’s Soledar

    Canada Global (Web News) According to official media, the Russian defence ministry said on Friday that its troops had taken control of the salt mining town of Soledar in eastern Ukraine.
    On Thursday night, the town that had been the subject of intense battle and bombardment was taken by Russian forces, according to the government. The neighbouring, much larger town of Bakhmut would now be cut off from Ukrainian soldiers as a result, it was said.

    Reuters was unable to confirm the defence ministry’s assertion right away.
    Following a “heated” night of fighting in Soledar, which has turned into one of the bloodiest battlegrounds of the entire conflict, Ukraine earlier on Friday claimed that its men were still holding out.

    The fight for the little town has resulted in significant losses for both sides.
    After a full year of humiliating retreats, Moscow is looking for its first significant battlefield victory. According to Kyiv, Russia is sending waves and waves of forces into a conflict that is meaningless for a bombed-out wasteland.

    Russia fires barrage of drones at Kyiv in overnight attack

    Canada Global (Web News) Kremlin demonstrated no relent in its goal of employing bombardments to target civilian infrastructure and wear down Ukrainian resistance to its invasion by utilising numerous explosive drones in another nocturnal attack on Ukraine, officials stated Monday.

    The onslaught was the most recent in a string of intense attacks at the end of the year, including one on New Year’s Eve that claimed the lives of three civilians.

    Vitali Klitschko, the mayor of Kiev, claimed on Monday that 40 drones “went for Kiev” overnight. Air defence forces claim that they were all destroyed.

Klitschko added that a 19-year-old man had been injured and that the capital was experiencing power outages.

    A “critical infrastructure object” and residential buildings were hit in Kyiv’s outskirts, according to Governor Oleksiy Kuleba.

    Since October, Russia has carried out almost weekly airstrikes on Ukrainian power and water supplies.

  • Ukraine’s Zelensky seeks India PM Modi’s support with peace formula

    Ukraine’s Zelensky seeks India PM Modi’s support with peace formula

    Canada Global (Web News) Volodymyr Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, claimed on Monday that he spoke with Prime Minister Narendra Modi about executing a “peace formula” and asked for India’s assistance.

    The discussion takes place as Western nations propose fresh sanctions to restrict Russia’s support of the war and India works to improve trade ties with Moscow.

    Zelensky posted on Twitter, “I had a phone contact with PM Narendra Modi and wished a successful G20 presidency.” “I unveiled the peace formula on this platform, and I now count on India’s support for its execution.”

    Last month, Zelensky urged the Group of 20 (G20) major economies to accept Ukraine’s 10-point peace plan and put an end to the conflict. India is in charge of the G20 for one year.

    The two presidents discussed ways to increase their bilateral cooperation, the Indian government said in a statement late on Monday.
    “The Prime Minister underlined the primary priorities of India’s G20 Presidency, including giving voice to developing countries’ concerns on matters like food and energy security,” the statement reads.

    Additionally, Modi “strongly reaffirmed” his demand for an early cessation of hostilities in Ukraine and stated that India would back any efforts at peace.

    India, which has not openly denounced Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, has surpassed China as the country that purchases the most Russian oil, purchasing barrels of Urals crude this month for significantly less than the $60 price restriction set by Western countries.

    The third-largest user of oil and gas in the world, where income levels are low, India must protect its own interests, according to the country’s foreign minister, who also referred to Russia as “a solid and time-tested ally.”

    Putin says Ukraine conflict should resolved as soon as possible

    Canada Global (Web News) The Kremlin has claimed that Kiev and Washington have ignored its warnings and that the US is using Ukraine as a proxy war to harm Russia.

    At the same time, Russian President Vladimir Putin reiterated that Russia wanted the war to finish quickly.

    “Our goal is to put an end to this conflict. We are working on it “, he told the press. “We will work to ensure that everything comes to an end as soon as possible.”

    “Every disagreement is resolved, in some way, through dialogue. The sooner our adversaries (in Kiev) realise this, the better “Putin added.

    According to the military chief in Moscow, Russian forces are now focused on seizing the eastern part of the Donetsk area, where the damaged city of Bakhmut has turned into a hotbed of conflict.

    Moscow authorities have stated time and time again in recent months that discussions with Ukraine have not been completely ruled out.

    They attributed President Zelensky, who has declared he will not engage in negotiations while Putin is in power, with the shutdown of diplomatic lines.

  • US hitting Russian naval entities with sanctions

    US hitting Russian naval entities with sanctions

    Canada Global (Web News) As Washington puts more pressure on Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine, the United States on Thursday imposed penalties on 10 Russian naval companies over Russian activities against Ukrainian ports, according to the US State Department.

    Following a meeting with President Joe Biden in Washington and an address to Congress on Wednesday in which he praised the United States for supporting Ukraine in the battle and appealed for more weapons, the move was taken.

    US Secretary of State Antony Blinken issued a statement saying, “In response to Russian naval activities against Ukrainian ports, especially those that are supplying much-needed food and grain to the world, the United States today is imposing sanctions on Russian naval companies.”

    Following a Russian strike on the area’s electricity grid, Ukraine said that the Black Sea port of Odesa was shut down for a day earlier this month and that the ports of Chornomorsk and Pivdennyi had only partially operated.

    Under a deal mediated by the United Nations and Turkiye in July with Russia and Ukraine to restart Ukraine’s Black Sea shipments that have been halted since Moscow’s invasion on February 24 and facilitate Russia’s food and fertiliser exports, all three ports export grain.

  • FIFA rejects Zelensky’s request for peace message at World Cup final

    FIFA rejects Zelensky’s request for peace message at World Cup final

    Canada Global (Web News) According to reports, FIFA turned down the request from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to give a message of peace prior to Sunday’s World Cup final in Qatar.

    Before the game, Zelensky’s office reportedly offered for him to address stadium patrons via video link, but was shocked by the refusal, a source told CNN.

    No details were provided regarding whether Zelensky’s speech will be recorded or delivered live.

    According to a CNN exclusive, “We believed FIFA wanted to use its platform for the greater benefit.”

    It is understood that despite being requested for a remark, FIFA was unable to provide one right away.

    Regardless of the events’ themes, Ukraine has regularly attempted to use significant international gatherings to draw attention to the Russian incursion that began earlier this year.

    Zelensky has made video appearances at a variety of events, including the G20 Summit, the Grammy Awards, and the Cannes Film Festival. He has also conducted interviews with a variety of journalists and well-known figures, such as Sean Penn and David Letterman. He has done this to help Kyiv gain support from around the world by using his charm and media savvy, which he developed while working as an actor before becoming a politician.

    FIFA has taken extraordinary measures to prevent political messages from being used at the inaugural World Cup being held by a Middle Eastern country in Qatar.

    Gianni Infantino, the head of FIFA, said the organisation had to “take care” of everyone and had halted some “political statements” in Qatar during a news conference on Friday.
    He declared, “We are a worldwide organisation, and we don’t discriminate against anyone.
    “At the World Cup, we are defending values and everyone’s rights. The millions of TV viewers and those fans each have their own issues.

     Biden lost his temper and shouted at Zelensky.

    Canada Global Tv: During a phone call with the president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, in June, US President Joe Biden lost his cool and yelled at him.

    The tense exchange apparently occurred on June 15 when Biden called Zelensky to inform him that he had obtained $1 billion in funds for the nation’s defence and humanitarian efforts.

    Zelensky allegedly did not express enough gratitude and instead started outlining further needs for his nation. Then, according to the source, Biden shouted that the American people were already being very kind.

    Soon after, the Ukrainian president made a video message in which he thanked the US for its assistance. Additionally, according to the story, administration officials denied accusations that Biden had yelled at Zelensky and insisted that instead, he had been “straight.”

    The two is reported to have since repaired their connection and obtained tens of billions in extra cash for Ukraine, according to the story.

    The study is released at a time when some Republicans and Democrats are opposing Joe Biden’s efforts to secure additional aid for the war-torn nation of Ukraine.
