Trump's Meeting With Putin Could Determine the Trajectory of the Russia-Ukraine War

President Donald Trump is flying to Alaska and a high-stakes summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin at a U.S. military base. Friday’s meeting could influence the war in Ukraine and European security. The Republican U.S. president aims to showcase his skills as a dealmaker. Trump says his talks with Putin will include Russian demands Ukraine cede territory as part of a peace deal. For Putin, the meeting is a chance to negotiate terms that favor Russia. The summit excludes Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, which could undermine Ukraine's interests. Trump has expressed hopes for a broader peace deal, but success is uncertain. The meeting's outcome could have significant implications for international relations and U.S. diplomacy.

DC Residents Protest as White House Says Federal Agents Will Be On Patrol 24/7

Residents in one Washington, D.C., neighborhood lined up to protest the increased police presence after the White House said the number of National Guard troops in the nation’s capital would ramp up and federal officers would be on the streets around the clock. After law enforcement set up a vehicle checkpoint Wednesday along the busy 14th Street Northwest corridor, hecklers shouted, “Go home, fascists” and “Get off our streets.” Some protesters stood at the intersection before the checkpoint and urged drivers to turn away from it. The action intensified a few days after President Donald Trump’s unprecedented announcement that his administration would take over the city’s police department for at least a month.

Israel Announces a Settlement That Critics Say Will Effectively Sever the West Bank in Two

Israel’s far-right finance minister has announced approval of contentious new settlement construction in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, which Palestinians and rights groups worry will scuttle plans for a future Palestinian state by effectively cutting the West Bank into two separate parts.
