TWO KINGS. 👑












🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer says the "majority" of Labour MPs quietly back him "What you never hear from are all the people who are supportive, loyal and just want to get on with the job. And that is the vast majority of people in the parliamentary Labour Party. They’re pleased to be in power. They’ve waited a long time to be in power. And they just want to get on with their job. They don’t make a lot of noise about it. They don’t talk to journalists about it. It’s really important that is reflected in these debates"



US Ambassador to Türkiye Tom Barrack: The question on S-400s… For those of you who don’t know, Türkiye, after the coup, bought a Russian defense system. There was a variance in opinion—were we not willing to sell them Patriots, or could they not buy Patriots, but they bought an S-400 system. At the time, Türkiye was also the second-largest NATO ally. This is huge. When you think of what that means and what Türkiye is doing to protect Europe, it’s incredible. They wanted to contribute to the F-35 jet program and, as a matter of fact, were a partner in manufacturing fuselages. When they bought the S-400, Congress then imposed sanctions. Sanctions… in my humble opinion… they don’t work. The sanctioned country becomes so smart, so ingenious, they figure out ways around them. They went off the F-35 system. President Trump and President Erdogan… sat down. Halkbank is now fine. F-16s — renegotiating again. The alliance… is being rebuilt. I think you’re going to see this S-400 situation solved soon. From my boss’s point of view, acceptance into an F-35 program is fine. Greece has S-300s and F-35s. So, that the the Greece-Türkiye issue is you know, another historic issue. I won't even attempt to get there because they'll they'll forbid me to ever go to Mykonos again.







It’s good news that the Strait of Hormuz has now reopened. This must be a long lasting and workable solution, without tolls or restrictions on routes. Today we announced our joint plan with France and other international partners to protect freedom of navigation. We need to see a return to peace and stability, and a permanent ceasefire.
