Trump Says He’s ‘Not Sure I’ll Make Heaven’ While Reflecting on Peace Efforts

Speaking with reporters aboard Air Force One on Monday while en route to Israel, Trump joked about his faith and legacy, saying, “I’m being a little cute, I don’t think there’s anything going to get me in heaven. I think I’m maybe not heaven-bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly in Air Force One. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven, but I’ve made life a lot better for a lot of people.” His comment came in response to a reporter who reminded him of his earlier remarks suggesting that achieving peace between Russia and Ukraine could help […]

Trump Urges Pardon for Netanyahu in Corruption Trial

US President Donald Trump has publicly called for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be pardoned from his ongoing corruption trials. Speaking before the Israeli parliament, Trump dismissed the charges, which allege Netanyahu accepted over $260,000 in luxury gifts like cigars and champagne in exchange for political favors. "Cigars and champagne, who the hell cares about that?" Trump joked, before directly suggesting the Israeli president grant a pardon. Netanyahu has denied all wrongdoing, and his supporters claim the trials are politically motivated. The Israeli president had previously hinted he might consider a pardon, stating the case "weighs heavily on Israeli society." Trump, who has faced his own legal challenges, has frequently defended Netanyahu, previously calling the investigations a "political witch hunt" similar to his own.

Hamas Hands Over 7 Israeli Hostages to Red Cross as Trump Heads to Gaza Peace Summit

Hamas has handed over seven surviving Israeli hostages to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), marking the first stage of a major hostage-prisoner exchange under a newly brokered Gaza ceasefire deal.

The Ambassador of Palestine to Nigeria, Muhannad Hammouri, has declared that there is no alternative to the United States–brokered peace deal between Israel and Hamas, describing the initiative as the only viable path to end the two-year conflict in Gaza. Speaking in an interview with The PUNCH, Hammouri said the peace agreement—initiated by US President Donald Trump—offers the best chance to stop the bloodshed and restore stability in the region. “The peace deal announced by President Trump between Israel and Hamas marked a significant development in the two-year-old conflict,” Hammouri said. “It includes a prisoner-hostage swap and a partial withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.” The deal, known as the Trump Initiative, outlines a 20-point framework featuring a complete ceasefire, the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, and the phased withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza.

China Condemns US ‘Double Standards’ Over New Tariff Threat

China has accused the United States of applying “double standards” after President Donald Trump announced plans to impose an additional 100 percent tariff on all Chinese imports starting November 1. In a statement released on Sunday, a spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Commerce described Trump’s remarks as “a typical example of double standards,” criticizing Washington’s approach to trade relations. Trump had announced on Friday that the new tariffs would be imposed in response to what he called China’s “extraordinarily aggressive” export restrictions on rare-earth minerals — materials crucial for global technology and manufacturing industries. He also hinted that his planned meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping later this month might be canceled. Beijing said the United States has intensified economic pressure on China since September, warning that such actions have damaged mutual trust and disrupted trade negotiations between both nations.

Burkina Faso Refuses to Accept US Deportees

Burkina Faso has publicly refused a US request to accept individuals being deported from the United States, directly challenging a key part of President Donald Trump's immigration policy. The West African nation's foreign minister, Karamoko Jean-Marie Traore, called the proposal "indecent" and stated it was "completely contrary to the principle of dignity." The refusal comes as the US has been seeking third countries, including some in Africa, to receive deportees. The announcement followed a move by the US embassy in Burkina Faso to suspend most regular visa services, requiring citizens to apply from neighboring Togo instead. The minister questioned if this was "blackmail," reaffirming that Burkina is "a destination, not a place of expulsion." Under its current junta leader, Captain Ibrahim Traore, Burkina Faso has distanced itself from Western powers like France and strengthened its ties with Russia.
