During talks between U.S. and Iranian delegations in Pakistan, the topic of Ukraine unexpectedly came up.
While discussing U.S. guarantees in the event that Iran halts uranium enrichment and abandons the development of nuclear weapons, the Iranian side asked how the United States is fulfilling the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, in which it pledged to respect and protect Ukraine’s sovereignty.
The U.S. delegation left the question unanswered.

Food for thought.
PM Carney is feeding reality to Canada in bite‑sized pieces and asking the country to listen carefully, not applaud politely. He is saying, in plain language, that Pax Americana is dead, CUSMA carve‑outs are favours not rights, and an economy wired to a bygone, post‑war order will not pay tomorrow’s bills.
President Trump’s America First agenda forces not just Canada but the entire world to reprice its assumptions about the U.S. and to adapt to a superpower that is openly prioritizing domestic industrial capacity, productive capital investment, and secure critical supply chains. Trump’s National Security Strategy is explicit about confronting China and re‑asserting control over the Western Hemisphere, and Canada sits squarely inside that frame. In that context, pipelines, LNG, critical minerals, and tidewater routes to Asia and Europe are not optional; they are the hard leverage Canada has avoided building for too long. As Secretary Bessent has warned, the objective is to de‑risk, not de‑couple and those are very wise words Canada needs to heed.
The good news is that Carney is right on the fundamentals: Canada actually has what the world wants, reliable energy, critical minerals, food, water, and stability. The question his statement poses is brutally simple: what is Canada going to do, concretely, to turn that endowment into strategy and bargaining power?
That answer will not be found in virtue signalling, communiqués, or climate press releases; it will be found in permits issued, pipelines built, ports expanded, and supply chains to Asia and Europe that actually move molecules and metals at scale.
His underlying message is that this is no longer the comfortable post‑Second‑World‑War era in which Canada could plug into a stable U.S.‑led order and coast. The basic architecture of Canada and Europe economy was built for a world of that is gone.
What now sits in front of Canada is not a tweak, but a rebuilding: a structural change that demands we realign our economy around our own strengths, resources, geography, and infrastructure, rather than around assumptions about a permanent Pax Americana. If Canada is serious about its goals in this new era, it will prove it not with slogans, but with concrete in the ground and tankers at tidewater.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said in a 10-minute video address released Sunday that Canada’s strong economic ties to the United States were once a strength but are now a weakness that must be corrected. Carney further spoke about his government’s efforts to strengthen the Canadian economy by attracting new investments and signing trade deals with other countries.

@sanchezcastejon Projecting a bit I would say!
Your running out of other people’s money

Finally, an explanation that cuts through the noise: California isn't actually taxing its residents at the highest rates in the country, despite what you've heard. This is a perfect example to set the record straight. Stay informed. #DemsUnited

If Lukashenko is a dictator, I’m the QUEEN OF ENGLAND.
I just sat down with Lukashenko for a two-hour, unscripted conversation with no pre-approved questions.
I’ve worked at NBC, CNN, Univision, Fox News, and now at RT, where, despite its flaws, I have more journalistic independence than I ever had.

“The next president must say on day one: We’re tearing down this arch; we’re razing Trump’s ballroom…Washington ceremonial architecture must be returned to the purpose for which it exists—to promote democracy, not the demented ego of one sick man.”

THIS IS SO HILARIOUS 😂😂
🇺🇸 Trump at 18:00 –– "I have made Iran open the Strait of Hormuz so now NATO countries are calling me if i need help to coordinate. I told them i need no help"
🇪🇸 Spain at 18:10 –– 🔥 "That's a lie. We never called him to coordinate with US military at Strait of Hormuz or in fact, anywhere. He is still living in delusion like he did for the last two months" 🤣
Under Perdo Sánchez leadership, it is impossible that Spain will ever bow down to Trump or offer help 🫡

@conspiracyb0t Blame Hamas
Who turned that society into a shield to hide its weapons. Then build its tunnels for an invasion force to rape, kill, and conquer Isreal.
Hamas did that!

Tucker Carlson: "What do you think of Gaza?"
Zanny Beddoes: "I went in with the IDF, what you see is a flattened place... I think it's a disaster for the future of Israel"
Tucker: "Why would you describe it first as a disaster for the future of Israel? Tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians murdered, but it's first and foremost a disaster for Israel? It's foremost a disaster for the families of the dead kids"
"The real problem with calling people anti-semites who aren't, is accusing the innocent of a crime they didn't commit"
"The real crime in Gaza is killing people who did nothing wrong"
"Those are the real problems, but no one can say it because you have to be like, oh no October 7th."
Zanny: "I don't know what you'e talking about Carlson."
Tucker Carlson bursts into laugh then says, "Everyone watching this knows what I'm talking about."

¡ÚLTIMA HORA. Terremoto diplomático en Nueva York! 🔥
El Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU acaba de estallar. En una votación que nadie vio venir con tanta crudeza, Francia le ha dado la espalda a Estados Unidos y ha bloqueado la resolución que buscaba legitimar el uso de la fuerza (Capítulo VII) para “desbloquear” el Estrecho de Ormuz.
No fue solo el esperado veto de Rusia y China. La verdadera puñalada ha venido de París. Emmanuel Macron ha dicho “¡basta!”: Francia ya no será el acompañante silencioso de otra aventura militar estadounidense en Oriente Medio. Ha votado en contra, no se ha abstenido. Un gesto de soberanía brutal que resuena como un cañonazo en la arquitectura transatlántica.
Mientras el mundo contiene la respiración, el mensaje es claro: Europa (al menos la Francia gaullista que aún respira) se niega a prender fuego al mercado energético global por una operación que muchos llaman “piratería legalizada” bajo bandera del Pentágono. Rusia y China, con Vitaly Nebenzya al frente, fueron implacables: esa resolución era un cheque en blanco para la guerra. Han defendido, sobre el papel, la soberanía iraní y advertido que cualquier escalada sería irreversible en una región que ya pende de un hilo.
La reacción de Donald Trump no se ha hecho esperar: ha amenazado con “consecuencias” para Francia. Esa ira pública confirma lo que muchos intuíamos: la grieta transatlántica ya no es una fisura, es un abismo. La “disciplina de bloque” de la OTAN está en la UCI. Los aliados ya no obedecen por lealtad; calculan por intereses propios.
Lo ocurrido hoy es el certificado de defunción del viejo orden donde Washington dictaba y el resto aplaudía. Si Estados Unidos no logra convencer ni a su aliado más antiguo para proteger bajo sus términos la arteria vital del petróleo mundial, entonces su liderazgo global ya no es hegemónico: se ha fragmentado.
Sin resolución de la ONU, el Estrecho de Ormuz sigue bajo control de facto de Irán. Washington se queda sin cobertura legal internacional para una intervención a gran escala y se ve obligado a volver a la mesa de negociaciones de la que intentaba huir.
Esto no es solo un revés diplomático. Es un sismo de grado 10 en la geopolítica mundial. La multipolaridad ya no es una teoría: hoy ha votado en el Consejo de Seguridad.
