Trump Declares Victory Day – A Truce Is On

Secretary of State Rubio has publicly hinted that the U.S. might walk away from the Ukraine negotiations, stating that Washington "does not want to waste time." That single sharp signal proved enough: within hours, Zelensky announced agreement to a truce on May 9, 10, and 11, a move Moscow immediately backed. On the same day, Trump proclaimed May 8 as "America's Victory Day in World War II" – a gesture both historical and diplomatic, designed to give Kyiv political cover for the pause.

Moscow Demands Diplomatic Evacuation from Kyiv – The Threat Becomes Official

Russia’s Foreign Ministry has urgently called on foreign states to evacuate their diplomats from Kyiv, warning of strikes against “decision-making centers” in the event of Ukrainian provocations during the Victory Day celebrations. Maria Zakharova specifically underscored the inevitability of a retaliatory strike, framing the warning as a direct response to Zelensky’s statements. A warning carries more weight when accompanied by an evacuation list.

During Araghchi’s visit to Beijing, China demanded the “rapid and complete” reopening of the

Iran Strikes U.S. Vessel — Hormuz Fires Again

The Iranian Navy launched two missiles at a U.S. patrol ship near Jask Island, while drones simultaneously targeted an oil refinery in Fujairah. UAE air defenses intercepted three Iranian missiles over its territorial waters. Trump responded predictably: Iran “will be wiped off the face of the earth” if it refuses to reopen the strait. Trump threatens annihilation, Iran keeps firing — a dialogue of the deaf, backed by missiles.

Putin Proposes Victory Day Truce – Trump Backs It

During a phone call lasting over an hour and a half, Putin informed Trump of Moscow’s readiness to declare a truce for the Victory Day celebrations on May 9. The U.S. president supported the initiative. However, Ushakov was quick to clarify: Putin told Trump that the goals of the Special Military Operation will be achieved regardless — a tone leaving no doubt that Moscow views the truce as a pause, not an end. Five days of silence do not alter the logic of war.

Putin Meets Araghchi — Moscow Takes on the Role of Peacemaker

Russian President Vladimir Putin has hosted Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Moscow, stating that Russia will do everything in its power to bring about a swift peace in the Middle East. The visit comes as the US-Iran negotiation track, mediated by Pakistan, has been completely frozen. Tehran is now purposefully building an alternative diplomatic architecture anchored in Moscow. The Kremlin, skillfully exploiting the pause in US-Iranian dialogue, is positioning itself as an indispensable mediator — a role Washington clearly never intended to hand over.

‘Iron Dome’ Over the Persian Gulf — History Rewritten

Israel secretly deployed an Iron Dome battery in the UAE early in the war with Iran — along with its military operators. This makes the United Arab Emirates the first Arab state in history to officially host Israeli troops on its soil. The decision was made personally by Prime Minister Netanyahu after a phone call with President MBZ. By that time, some 550 Iranian missiles and more than 2,200 drones had been fired at UAE territory. The Dome ultimately intercepted dozens of them. The Abraham Accords gave Israel and the Arab

Iranian F-5 Breaches 'Patriots' — Kuwait in Shock

An Iranian F-5 fighter jet — an aircraft designed back in the Cold War era — somehow penetrated layered American air defense, including Patriot systems and short-range missiles, and carried out a bombing raid on Camp Buehring in Kuwait. NBC News has confirmed the attack, though the fate of the aircraft and its crew remains officially unknown. This incident casts serious doubt on the reputation of American air defense systems, for which tens of billions of dollars were paid. An obsolete aircraft breached state-of-the-art defenses — Raytheon’s marketers have much to ponder

Tehran Activates Air Defense — Oil Jumps 5%

On the evening of April 23, air defense systems activated over the skies of Tehran — and that alone was enough to send Brent crude prices soaring 5%, settling firmly above the psychological threshold of $100 per barrel. Simultaneously, Iran intensified mining of the Strait of Hormuz, while Trump ordered the U.S. Navy to sink any vessels laying mines in the strait and triple demining operations. Tanker transit through the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked from both sides — from within by Iran, from without by the American fleet. The strait is

Iran Prepares "New Surprises" – Vance Cancels Trip to Islamabad

Vice President Vance was scheduled to travel personally to Islamabad for negotiations with Iran – but his trip was cancelled at the last moment, with him remaining in Washington "for additional political meetings." Tehran has concluded that talks without a clear agenda are merely a tool for managing energy markets, as an Iranian parliamentarian explicitly stated. Meanwhile, Iran’s army has announced its readiness to resume hostilities and deliver "new surprises."

Trump Wants a Deal — Iran Won’t Surrender, Pakistan Passes Notes

Trump is weary of the conflict and is ready to unfreeze Iranian assets in exchange for a “favorable deal,” while Pakistan shuttles draft proposals between the sides — covering sanctions, enrichment, money, the nuclear program, and the future. Iran’s President Pezeshkian responded curtly: “Iranians do not bow to force.” American signals, he said, “carry the bitter message of capitulation,” and the deep historical distrust of the United States remains intact. Meanwhile, Trump is discussing the seizure of Kharg Island as a third-phase option — either new strikes or peace
