oscow has warned Washington not to allow Ukraine to launch attacks with US weapons on Russian territory. “This stance is irresponsible, the position is perilous with its consequences,” Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russian state television on Thursday. He was commenting on a report in the US newspaper, the New York Times, according to which US Secretary of State Antony Blinken favors such strikes against Russian territory and wants to persuade President Joe Biden to lift the restrictions. In Washington, but also some European capitals, an escalation is constantly being provoked, said Peskov. There are “hotheads in the US who see it as their job to keep adding fuel to the fire”.
“While understanding that everybody cannot move at the same pace, we all have to firm up to move forward. It is also important to create a social welfare system,” the Minister said while speaking at an interactive session on Viksit Bharat @2047 organized by the PHD Chamber of Commerce in New Delhi. Appreciating PM Narendra Modi for his policy choices, Jaishankar said his strong leadership and good judgment have steered India through many crises besides transforming the economy in the last 10 years. He also pointed out that the government’s response in handling the Covid pandemic, the China crisis, and India’s stance on Russia and Ukraine
were in the best interest of India and its citizens. “As a nation, we must grow for today
Haley will vote for Trump, triggers V-P slot talk
“It is now obvious to all experts that no weapons are capable of somehow turning the tide in the zone of the special military operation,” said the close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, using Russia’s term for the war in Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is demanding that the US and other Western allies allow his country to use the weapons supplied for strikes against Russia. So far, the country has mainly used weapons from its production for this purpose.
Biden accuses Trump of using ‘Hitler’s language’ in newspaper mock-up
U
S President Joe Biden has accused his predecessor and likely election opponent Donald Trump of using Nazi rhetoric following the publication of a video referencing a “unified Reich.”
The US State Department would neither confirm nor deny the New York Times report on Thursday. Blinken had said during his visit to Kiev last week that the US was committed to helping Ukraine win the war.
“And we will continue to back Ukraine with the equipment that it needs to succeed, that it needs to win.”

On the contrary, the weapons deliveries are prolonging the war for the Ukrainians, Peskov added.
“We have not encouraged or enabled strikes outside of Ukraine, but ultimately Ukraine has to make decisions for itself about how it’s going to conduct this war, a war it’s conducting in defence of its freedom, of its sovereignty, of its territorial integrity,” he said in the Ukrainian capital.
and leapfrog for tomorrow to realize our goals and aspirations,” he said.

fter running a spirited primary challenge to former US President Donald Trump, Nikki Haley, the former Ambassador to the UN, said on Wednesday that she will vote for him. “I will be voting for Trump,” the Indiandescent politician said in a speech at Hudson Institute, a think-tank where she will hold a chair. “She went on to explain her reasons. As a voter, I put my priorities on a President who’s going to have the backs of our allies and hold our enemies to account. Who would secure the border, no more excuses. A President who would support capitalism
and freedom. A President who understands we need less debt, not more debt. Trump has not been perfect on these policies. I have made that clear many, many times. But Biden has been a catastrophe.” Haley’s endorsement triggered talk of joining the Trump ticket as running mate. Trump, who has stoked speculation about his running mate naming those in consideration, has ruled out Haley. But if Haley can change her mind about Trump, so and Trump about her. Running against him for the party’s nomination to run for the White House, she had called him “unhinged” and chaos followed him wherever he went.
Trump is using “Hitler’s language. That’s not America’s,” Biden said in a campaign video released on Tuesday. In the short clip, the Democrat holds a phone in his hand and says, referencing the video: “Is this on his official account? Wow.” On Monday, Trump shared a video, which was later deleted, on his social media site Truth Social, showing mocks of newspaper articles that would be written if Trump won the presidential election in November. Among the bits of text featured was a subheading referring to “the creation of a unified Reich.” The term “empire” in German is often associated with the Third Reich under Adolf Hitler’s Nazi regime from 1933-1945.
