Russia Warns of Military Response if US Deploys Weapons in Greenland

Russia has warned it could take military action if the United States moves forward with plans to deploy weapons systems in Greenland, escalating tensions between Washington and Moscow over Arctic security. Deputy Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov stated that Moscow would respond if the United States implements its proposed Golden Dome missile defense program on the Arctic island. Moscow Signals Possible Military Countermeasures Speaking to reporters at the Russian embassy in China, Ryabkov said any US military deployment in Greenland would trigger a direct response from Russia. His remarks were reported by Russia’s state news agency TASS. “If the Americans decide to move weapons systems into the region or deploy elements of their Golden Dome concept in Greenland, it would require military and technical compensatory measures, and our specialists will be ready to take them,” Ryabkov said. He emphasized that […]

Iran warns of regional conflict if US attacks, labels EU armies ‘terrorist groups’

Iran has warned that any United States military attack on its territory could ignite a wider regional conflict, amid soaring tensions over protests, sanctions and stalled nuclear talks. The warning came as Tehran responded angrily to a recent move by the European Union to designate Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organisation. In retaliation, Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf announced that Iran now considers EU armies to be “terrorist groups” and is weighing the expulsion of European military attachés. The United States has significantly reinforced its naval presence in the Middle East in recent weeks, deploying an aircraft carrier, six destroyers and three littoral combat ships to the region after President Donald Trump repeatedly threatened intervention if Iran refused a nuclear deal or continued its deadly crackdown on protesters. Despite the heated rhetoric, both Washington and Tehran […]

US clears multibillion dollar arms sales to Israel and Saudi Arabia

The United States has approved two major weapons deals worth billions of dollars for Israel and Saudi Arabia at a time of heightened tension with Iran. The State Department authorised a 3.8 billion dollar sale of 30 Apache attack helicopters to Israel, along with a 1.8 billion dollar package of joint light tactical vehicles. It said the deal would help Israel maintain a strong self defence capability and is consistent with long standing US commitments to its security. Washington already supplies Israel with billions of dollars in military aid each year. The latest approvals come as Israel observes a fragile US backed ceasefire in Gaza after more than two years of war with Hamas. The US has also approved a 9 billion dollar sale of 730 Patriot missiles to Saudi Arabia. The system is designed to defend against incoming aerial […]

China tells US its containment strategy is bound to fail

China has warned that United States efforts to contain its rise are doomed to fail, even as Beijing says it is willing to work with Washington to improve relations. Defence ministry spokesman Jiang Bin told a news briefing on Thursday that “facts have proven that any attempt to contain or block China is doomed to fail.” He added that China is ready to work with the US to promote stable ties ahead of President Donald Trump’s expected visit to China in April for talks with President Xi Jinping. The warning comes days after the US Department of Defense released its 2026 National Defense Strategy, which pledges to “deter China in the Indo Pacific through strength, not confrontation.” The new strategy adopts a softer tone than the previous one under former President Joe Biden, which labelled China as Washington’s most consequential […]

Zelenskiy: Territorial issue on table at UAE trilateral talks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says the vital question of territory in Ukraine’s war with Russia will be discussed at U.S.‑brokered trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi on Friday and Saturday. Kyiv faces growing pressure from Washington to strike a peace deal in the nearly four‑year conflict, while Moscow is demanding that Ukraine give up the entire eastern Donbas region before halting its offensive.​ Speaking in a WhatsApp media chat a day after what he and U.S. President Donald Trump described as positive talks, Zelenskiy said the status of Donbas would be a central focus of the UAE meeting. “The issue of Donbas is key,” he said, adding that the talks would examine how all three sides view the territorial question.​ An aide to Zelenskiy said discussions would start on Friday evening. A major sticking point remains Russian President Vladimir Putin’s demand […]

Trump sends US ‘armada’ toward Gulf amid Iran tensions

President Donald Trump says a US “armada” is heading toward the Gulf as Washington keeps a close watch on Iran despite recently playing down the prospect of imminent military action. He told reporters on Air Force One, returning from the World Economic Forum in Davos, that the United States was sending a “massive fleet” toward Iran “just in case”, adding that he would rather avoid conflict but was monitoring Tehran “very closely”.​ Trump has repeatedly kept open the option of new strikes on Iran after backing Israel’s 12 day war in June aimed at degrading Iranian nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities. He said in Davos that US attacks on Iranian uranium enrichment sites last year were intended to prevent Tehran from developing a nuclear weapon, something Iran denies.​ The latest remarks come after weeks of seesaw rhetoric, with Trump at […]

US presses Nigeria to do more to protect Christians

The United States has told Nigeria it must do more to protect Christians as senior officials from both countries meet in Abuja for high level security talks. The comments follow the reported mass kidnapping of worshippers from several churches in Kaduna State, an incident that has triggered local and international concern.​ Allison Hooker, US under secretary of state for political affairs and head of the American delegation, said Nigeria’s government must guarantee that Christians can practise their faith freely and safely. She directly referenced the alleged abduction of more than 170 people from churches in Kajuru Local Government Area.​ Hooker’s remarks reflect the priority US President Donald Trump has placed on what he calls “genocide” and “persecution” of Christians in Nigeria. Washington’s framing has been rejected by the Nigerian government and many analysts, who note that both Muslims and Christians […]

US talks with hardline Venezuelan minister Cabello began months before raid

Officials in President Donald Trump’s administration were in quiet contact with Venezuela’s hardline interior minister Diosdado Cabello months before the US raid that seized President Nicolas Maduro on January 3, and those communications have continued since. Multiple sources say the talks were aimed at preventing further instability and focused on urging the 62‑year‑old power broker not to deploy security forces or ruling‑party militias against opposition supporters.​ Cabello controls key elements of Venezuela’s security apparatus, including intelligence services, police and parts of the armed forces, which have largely remained intact after Maduro’s removal. He is named in the same US drug‑trafficking indictment used to justify Maduro’s arrest, yet he was not detained in the operation, and discussions with Washington have also touched on sanctions and the criminal charges he faces.​ US officials see Cabello’s stance as critical to the survival of […]
