New Diplomacy on the Horizon: U.S. and Russia Push Ahead Without Ukraine

  In a bold shift from previous diplomatic efforts, top U.S. and Russian officials have agreed to advance negotiations aimed at ending the war in Ukraine—even as Ukrainian representatives remain notably absent. High-level talks held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, saw U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov discussing the framework for future peace negotiations and steps toward restoring bilateral relations. The Trump administration’s approach, which prioritizes direct engagement with Moscow, marks a departure from longstanding principles that insisted on “nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.” Critics in Kyiv have voiced strong opposition.

Prince Harry Wins 'Monumental' Legal Battle Against Murdoch's Sun

 


In a landmark victory, Prince Harry has won a significant legal battle against Rupert Murdoch's UK newspaper group, News Group Newspapers (NGN). The publisher admitted to unlawful actions at its Sun tabloid and issued a rare, full apology to the Duke of Sussex.

Harry, 40, had been suing NGN for illegally obtaining private information about him from 1996 until 2011. The settlement includes substantial damages and an admission of intrusion into the private lives of both Harry and his late mother, Princess Diana.

"This victory is not just about me, it's about holding those who abuse their power to account," Harry said in a statement. "The truth has finally been acknowledged, and justice has been served."

The apology from NGN marks a significant moment in the ongoing battle against unlawful media practices. Harry's lawyer, David Sherborne, emphasized that this case was about accountability and truth, rather than monetary compensation.

The settlement comes after last-minute talks, averting a trial that was set to begin earlier this week. Harry's co-claimant, former senior British lawmaker Tom Watson, also received an apology and damages.

Harry's mission to expose and rectify the wrongdoings of the British tabloids has resulted in a historic win, setting a precedent for future cases involving media misconduct.
