Trump calls Iran war a little diversion despite public anger

US President Donald Trump has described the ongoing war with Iran as a little diversion during his second term, even as opinion polls show that many Americans oppose the conflict.​ Speaking at an event in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he promoted his no tax on tips measure from last year’s major tax reform bill, the 79 year old leader praised his current economic record. He told supporters that the United States had the best economy in its history during his first term and that things are even better now.​ Trump referred to the war in Iran as a diversion to the lovely country of Iran and insisted that military action was necessary to prevent really bad things from happening. He was apparently referring to concerns about Iran’s nuclear ambitions.​ An Ipsos poll conducted last weekend found that 51 percent of […]

British PM urged to resign over Mandelson security scandal

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under intense pressure to resign over his decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as the United Kingdom’s ambassador to the United States after it emerged that Mandelson had failed a key security vetting.​ Public anger has grown in recent months following revelations that Mandelson’s 2024 nomination went ahead despite longstanding concerns about his close links to late US sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Mandelson, a veteran Labour figure who has held several ministerial positions since the late 1990s, has faced multiple scandals throughout his political career.​ The government has tried to shift blame onto foreign ministry officials, insisting that neither Starmer nor his foreign secretary knew about the failed vetting until this week. According to senior minister Darren Jones, the top civil servant at the foreign ministry, Olly Robbins, has now resigned after Starmer lost confidence […]

Police extradite fugitive to UK over murder, drug trafficking

The Nigeria Police Force has extradited a fugitive, Matthew Chukwuemeka Adebiyi, to the United Kingdom over alleged involvement in murder and drug trafficking. The extradition was coordinated through the INTERPOL National Central Bureau (NCB), Abuja, following a formal request by UK authorities made in September 2024.

US says it is optimistic about reaching peace deal with Iran

The United States is exploring a second round of peace talks with Iran in Pakistan and is “optimistic” about reaching a deal to end the ongoing war, US officials have said. A Pakistani delegation has arrived in Tehran with a new message from Washington after US President Donald Trump signalled that negotiations could resume this week, following last weekend’s failed talks in Islamabad. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters that any further discussions would “very likely” take place again in Islamabad, adding: “Those discussions are being had, and we feel good about the prospects of a deal.” The renewed diplomatic push comes as Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif intensifies shuttle diplomacy, including a meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, to support efforts to end the six‑week conflict involving Iran, Israel and the United States.

Trump says Israel, Lebanon leaders to hold talks Thursday

US President Donald Trump says the leaders of Israel and Lebanon will speak on Thursday in what would be an unprecedented direct contact, though officials in both countries have yet to confirm any such plan. Trump’s comments came as Washington tries to ease hostilities after the first direct talks in decades between the two nations’ ambassadors, who met in the US capital this week. Lebanon was drawn into the Middle East war on March 2 when Hezbollah, the Iran‑backed armed group based in the country, launched attacks on Israel. Since then, Israeli strikes in Lebanon have killed more than 2,000 people and displaced over a million, despite international calls for a ceasefire, while Israeli ground forces have pushed into the country’s south. Posting on Truth Social, Trump said he was “trying to get a little breathing room between Israel and […]
