US President Donald Trump made a big statement on the Russia-Ukraine issue on Monday (25 August 2025) in a conversation with reporters. He said that Russian President Vladimir Putin is not ready to meet Ukraine’s President Volodimir Jailonsci. Trump clearly said that Putin does not like him. He said that after the summit in Washington, he spoke to Putin. The conversation was positive, but even after this, bombing in Kiev or other places, which makes me angry.

Trump’s remarks came just a day after the statement of Russian External Affairs Minister Sergei Lavarov. Let me tell you that Lavarov told the US media that Putin is ready for talks, but the validity of the signing of the agreement is an important issue. He said that according to the Ukrainian Constitution, Jailonski is not valid. Lavarov was indicated that Russia was not considering Jailonsky as a valid leader to negotiate.

Wish to meet Kim Jong Un
Journalists asked Trump if he would like to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un again. Trump said that someday I will definitely meet him. We will definitely be face to face at some point. Let me tell you that Trump has been the first US President who had three historic meetings with Kim Jong Un in 2018 and 2019. However, there was no concrete agreement with those meetings. Pyongyang later resumed nuclear tests.

Trump also insisted on nuclear weapons control
With its comments on Russia and North Korea, Trump also emphasized nuclear weapons control. From his official account, he wrote that we are trying to disarma nuclear with Russia and China. We have to stop the spread of nuclear weapons. Their power is very high, they cannot be allowed to spread. Trump reiterated that his administration would continue global nuclear control efforts even in Europe and Korean peninsula.

Israel-hamas ceasefire: The US has prepared a 60-day ceasefire proposal to calm the Israel-Gaja conflict in West Asia. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said to consider this proposal, but according to the US administration, Israel has agreed to it.

Some conditions have also been implemented regarding the 60 -day ceasefire. According to this, humanitarian aid will be supplied in Gaza under any restriction. Hamas will have to release 28 Israeli hostages. In return, Israel will release 125 Palestinian prisoners. Apart from this, the bodies of 180 dead hostages will also be handed over.

Hamas’s response: consent or disagreement?
Hamas has not yet given a final decision on the 60 -day ceasefire proposal, but there are indications that the organization can accept it in view of serious humanitarian crisis and international pressure. According to Hamas, the final decision will be revealed by Friday or Saturday. Given the current situation in Gaza, this ceasefire can become a serious relief opportunity.

Role of Europe and Islamic countries
To end the struggle, countries like European Union, Germany, France, Britain, and Türkiye are also constantly pressurizing Israel to end the struggle. Recently many European countries also passed resolutions against Israel. In this context, diplomats from 31 countries visited Gaza. During this time, the incident of firing from Israel further increased the tension.

Grata Thangberg’s Gaza Yatra
Climate and human rights activist Greta Thangberg has announced that she will go to Gaza on Sunday (May 31). The journey is part of a human mission called “Freedom Floralla”, which is being run to help the citizens of the war affected Gaza. French-Pilstinian MP Reema Hasan will also join the journey along with Gita. The purpose of this journey is to create global moral pressure on Israel and America and bring the human side to the world.

Is this ceasefire step towards permanent peace?
Analysts believe that if this ceasefire is successful, it can be a new beginning of trust and diplomacy for both sides. However, factors such as political disagreement, internal extremism, and mutual mistrust can become a challenge in the way to convert it into a permanent solution.

Donald Trump Remove NSA: US President Donald Trump has again taken a decision that has created a stir not only in America but also in global politics. This time he has dismissed the Director of the National Security Agency (NSA) and four-stars General Timothy Hog. The action was taken immediately after the request of a right -wing worker named Laura Lumor, in which he demanded the removal of officers who are not in line with Trump’s agenda. This incident suggests that Trump is keeping loyalty above merit, and while in power, he will not tolerate his critics at any cost.

General Timothy Hogh had a 33 -year experience in cyber and intelligence world. He has been a critic of Trump and was probably considered close to former General Mark Mile. No formal reason for his dismissal was given. Rather, the influence of outsiders like Laura Lumor is seen behind it. It is very worrying that decisions in sensitive institutions like US national security are being taken on the basis of political loyalty. Apart from this, Hog’s Deputy, Wendy Noble was also removed from the post. Close to Trump believes that officials who are not loyal to his ideology are hindering the way of “greatness” of America.

Lumor intervention

Laura Lumor, which is considered a staunch right. Their effect is clearly visible in this decision. He recently met Trump and demanded the removal of the “non-de-deeds” officials present in NSA and NSS. He believes that General Hogs are representatives of the pre-administration ideology and Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign is obstructed. This step of Trump is an indication that he does not give place to such people during his tenure, no matter how much his ability and experience is.

Danger on national security or only reduction in expenditure?

Another important angle-gate is associated with the controversy. Sensitive information related to the Huki attacks in Yemen was leaked on the signal app. Although General Hog had no direct relation in this, this incident created a crisis of faith within NSA and NSS. Apart from this, this decision can also be part of the sorting of government employees with the objective of reducing expenditure under DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency). However, experts believe that it is not just a matter of expenses, but is part of a major political cleaning process of Trump, in which they only want to keep them in administration who are completely loyal to them.
