Trump Warns Russia of Unspecified Action Amid Ukraine Strikes

Former US President Donald Trump said he would wait “a week” before deciding on new sanctions against Russia, warning, “It will not be pleasant… some things will happen.”

Speaking alongside Norwegian PM Jonas Gahr Støre, Trump criticized Russia’s latest missile strikes on Kyiv, saying peace talks were underway but “missiles were fired.”

Trump claimed the Ukraine war would not have started under his presidency and described Russia not occupying all of Ukraine as “a big concession.”

On Iran, he said nuclear talks were progressing and warned there are “only two options,” with one being “not good.” He also criticized Biden’s trade policies, claiming the US had been losing billions daily.

US Flag Raised Again at Embassy in Damascus After 12 Year

0

 

The US flag has been hoisted once more at the US Embassy in Damascus, Syria, for the first time since its closure in 2012.

US Special Representative for Syria Thomas Barrack made his first official visit to Damascus and personally raised the flag during a ceremony attended by Syrian Foreign Minister Assad Hassan Shaybani. The embassy had suspended operations amid the outbreak of civil conflict following anti-government protests.

No official statement has been issued regarding the resumption of embassy operations.

The move follows a surprise meeting earlier this month between US President Donald Trump and Syrian President Ahmed al-Shara in Riyadh, where a decision was made to lift sanctions imposed during the Assad era, signaling a potential shift in Washington-Damascus relations.
