Tehran in Turmoil as Residents Flee Following Trump’s Urgent Warning

The streets of Tehran are rapidly emptying as residents heed an urgent warning from U.S. President Donald Trump, who called for the immediate evacuation  of the Iranian capital amid escalating tensions between Iran and Israel.  Trump’s statement, posted on his Truth Social platform, emphasized that “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon” and urged the city’s nearly 10 million residents to leave before it was “too late”.

Patience in Diplomacy: Kremlin Responds to Trump's Ukraine Push

 

The Kremlin has emphasized the need for patience in diplomatic efforts following U.S. President Donald Trump's recent call for progress in resolving the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that while discussions between Moscow and Washington are progressing well, it is unrealistic to expect immediate results due to the strained relations inherited from the previous administration.

Trump, who has expressed a desire to be remembered as a peacemaker, has been vocal about ending the "bloodbath" in Ukraine. His special envoy, Steve Witkoff, recently held extensive talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in St. Petersburg. Despite these efforts, Peskov highlighted the complexity of restoring bilateral relations and achieving a peace deal, describing the process as requiring "serious and painstaking work."

The conflict in Ukraine, which began with Russia's 2022 invasion, remains a significant point of contention between Moscow and the West. While European leaders have called for Russia's defeat on the battlefield, Putin frames the war as a broader struggle against Western encroachment on Russia's sphere of influence.

Diplomatic efforts continue, but both sides acknowledge that rebuilding trust and finding a resolution will take time and perseverance.
