Europe, Ukraine, and Russia: Diplomacy and Security
US-Ukraine-Russia Peace Talks: Tensions Over Negotiating Leverage
Politico Europe reports that while Kyiv and Washington are publicly presenting a united front during peace talks aimed at ending Russia’s war in Ukraine, Ukrainian officials remain apprehensive that the US is prioritizing negotiations with Moscow over their input. The American side, led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Representative Steve Witkoff, has tabled a revised 19-point plan more acceptable to Ukraine after initial proposals were rejected. However, Ukrainian officials are concerned about being sidelined as Witkoff and other US negotiators prepare to engage directly with Russian officials in Moscow. The talks are seen as pivotal, with the US pushing for a comprehensive settlement that addresses territorial and security guarantees, while Ukraine insists that President Zelenskyy must approve any agreement.

Zelenskyy’s Paris Diplomacy Amid Pressure for Peace
The Guardian highlights Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s diplomatic push in Paris, where he is scheduled to meet with French President Emmanuel Macron. This comes as US pressure mounts for a resolution to the conflict, with France’s foreign minister Jean-Noël Barrot underscoring that peace is attainable if Russian President Vladimir Putin abandons ambitions to restore a Soviet-style empire. The meeting is part of a broader week of high-level discussions intended to reinforce European support for Ukraine and counter any momentum for a settlement perceived as favoring Russia.

Middle East: Escalation and Humanitarian Concerns
East Jerusalem Evictions and the Gaza War’s Ripple Effects
The Guardian details the rising despair among Palestinian residents of Batn al-Hawa in East Jerusalem, where hundreds face imminent eviction by Israeli authorities. Locals attribute the surge in evictions and a hardening atmosphere to the ongoing Gaza conflict, which they say has fostered increased hostility and isolation. The symbolic resonance of the Old City’s religious landmarks contrasts with the daily realities for Palestinians, with many activists conceding defeat after years of legal and civil resistance.

Israeli Military Actions Continue Across the Region
According to The Guardian, Israeli operations have intensified not only in Gaza but also across the West Bank, Syria, and Lebanon, despite the announcement of a ceasefire. Civilian casualties continue to mount, with over 300 killed and nearly 1,000 injured in Gaza since the pause in fighting, and humanitarian access remains severely restricted. International organizations such as Amnesty International and Oxfam warn that the reduction in hostilities has not translated into meaningful relief for affected populations, drawing criticism for what they describe as ongoing "genocide" and "imperialism" by the Israeli state.
The Guardian
The New York Times explains that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has requested a preemptive pardon from the Israeli president as his corruption trial proceeds, even before any verdicts have been reached. The case, which involves allegations of bribery and breach of trust, continues to polarize Israeli society and could have significant ramifications for the country’s political future and its handling of regional conflicts.

The region is now home to over 2 million people in urgent need of aid, compounded by the influx of refugees from Sudan’s ongoing conflict.

China’s Expanding AI Surveillance and Censorship

UK Special Forces Under Scrutiny for Afghanistan Conduct
A Guardian investigation exposes allegations that senior UK military officials attempted to cover up concerns about unlawful killings by SAS units in Afghanistan, including extrajudicial shootings of civilians and children. Whistleblower testimony to an official inquiry claims that the chain of command failed to halt these abuses, which continued for years, raising questions about accountability within the British armed forces.

Aid Cuts Threaten Progress in HIV/Aids Battle Across Africa
According to The Guardian, recent cuts in US, UK, and European funding for HIV/Aids programs are having a devastating impact, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Reports document rising infection rates and deaths, clinic closures, and severe shortages of diagnostic kits in countries such as Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Projections suggest that without urgent restoration of funding, 3.3 million new HIV infections could occur by 2030, reversing years of progress in the fight against the epidemic.
