Nato leaders also appear eager to avoid a repeat of Zelensky's February trip to the Oval Office that ended abruptly after an argument
'No going into Nato by Ukraine,' says Trump as Zelensky prepares for White House talks
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump has said the Ukrainian president can end Russia's war "if he wants to", but there would be "no going into Nato by Ukraine" as part of a peace deal.Hours before he was due to host Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, Trump also said there would be "no getting back" of the Crimean peninsula, which Moscow illegally annexed in 2014, eight years before launching its full-scale invasion.It follows Trump's summit with Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Alaska that resulted in the US president dropping a demand for a ceasefire and calling instead for a permanent peace deal.A US envoy said on Sunday that Putin had agreed to a possible Nato-like security pact for Ukraine.The Russian president has consistently opposed the idea of...

Migrant families wade into the sea in an attempt to board a small boat on 12 August 2025 in Gravelines, France
Thousands cross Channel in small boats since new migrant deal with France
LONDON — More than 2,500 migrants have crossed the Channel in small boats in the 11 days since the new "one in, one out" agreement with France took effect, figures from the UK's Home Office show.The plan proposes that for each migrant the UK returns to France, another person with a strong case for asylum in Britain will be allowed to stay.Around 28,000 people have reached the UK in small boats so far this year and more than 50,000 have crossed since Labour came into power in July 2024.Meanwhile, a boat holding more than 100 people was reportedly sighted in the Channel this week.A Home Office spokesperson said the people-smuggling gangs "do not care if the vulnerable people they exploit live or die, as long as they pay"."That is why this government is...

Global plastic talks collapse as countries remain deeply divided
GENEVA — Global talks to develop a landmark treaty to end plastic pollution have once again failed.The UN negotiations, the sixth round of talks in just under three years, were due to end on Thursday but countries continued to negotiate into the night in the hopes of breaking a deadlock.There remained a split between a group of about 100 nations calling for curbs on production of plastic, and oil states pushing for a focus on recycling.Speaking in the early hours, Cuban delegates said that countries had "missed a historic opportunity but we have to keep going".The talks were convened in 2022 in response to the mounting scientific evidence of the risks of plastic pollution to human health and the environment.Despite the benefits of plastic to almost every sector, scientists are...

Trump set to meet Putin in push for Ukraine peace
WASHINGTON – US and Russian officials will converge on the state of Alaska ahead of a highly anticipated Friday meeting between Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.The pair will meet for the first time in six years, as Trump tries to enact a key campaign pledge to end Russia's war in Ukraine.The US president, who has portrayed himself as a global peacemaker, hopes to leverage his personal relationship with Putin to achieve a ceasefire breakthrough where others have failed.On Thursday he assessed there was a "25% chance" the meeting would not be successful.Ukraine's leader Volodymyr Zelensky has been excluded from the talks, and warned that any resolutions made in his absence will be meaningless.In Anchorage there are few signs of the impending high-stakes...

Ukrainians are still training to fight Russia - few expect the war will end soon
Left out of Alaska talks, exhausted Ukrainians fear an unjust peace
KYIV – They call it "dronocide": new training to deal with what is now the greatest threat to a Ukrainian soldier's life on the battlefield – drones.These machines saturate the front line and cause the largest number of casualties, according to Ukraine. If Donald Trump can't make Vladimir Putin agree to a ceasefire at their meeting in Alaska on Friday, then this training in eastern Ukraine might be essential to saving lives on the front.The continuing preparation for battle suggests few in Ukraine are expecting this war to stop any time soon. The training is not especially sophisticated: their defence is a shotgun. The soldiers go through drills to hit fast-moving targets – shooting first from the ground, and then while on the move. Ihor, their experienced...
