🇱🇾 Mr.Lavrov speaks the sad known truth as to why Libya under Ghadhafi was destroyed because of it's Independent sovereign policies and the financial dealings with then French president Nicolas Sarkozy.

Never believe it when the West talks about human rights and democracy, it's all manipulation of the masses to pass their globalist neo-con satanic agendas. Rest in Power Ghadhafi .

🇺🇸🇵🇸 Trump Floats Idea of Turning Gaza into a “Zone of Freedom” Under U.S. Control — Reports

Speaking in Qatar, U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly suggested that the United States should “take Gaza” and transform it into an American-administered “zone of freedom.”

“I have some great ideas for Gaza. I think they’re fantastic. Make it a zone of freedom. Let the U.S. step in and just turn Gaza into a freedom zone,” Trump was quoted as saying.

This isn’t the first time Trump has made such bold geopolitical proposals. He previously floated plans to take control of Gaza and relocate its population—plans that received support from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

🇪🇪🇺🇸 Estonian FM Complains to U.S. Over Failed Attempt to Seize Tanker JAGUAR in Baltic Incident

Estonia’s Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna reportedly lodged a complaint with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio after a failed attempt by Estonian and NATO forces to intercept the civilian tanker JAGUAR in neutral waters.

Tsahkna claimed that a Russian fighter jet had “violated” Estonian airspace while Tallinn was attempting to redirect the Gabon-flagged vessel—headed for the Russian port of Primorsk—into Estonian jurisdiction. The accusation comes amid what appears to be an increasingly aggressive posture by Baltic NATO members in the region.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte also commented on the incident, pointing to what he called a rise in maritime tensions:

“In connection with these events—and they’ve only increased over the last 6 to 12 months—we maintain an air policing mission over the Baltics, as well as the Baltic Sentry initiative, which focuses on protecting our critical underwater infrastructure,” Rutte stated.

ℹ️On May 14, NATO aircraft and Estonian naval units attempted to intercept the JAGUAR in international waters. The vessel, a civilian tanker flying the Gabonese flag, was pressured to enter Estonian waters where it could be detained—raising questions about the legality and motives of the operation.

The JAGUAR ultimately eluded capture and is now safely anchored near Primorsk.

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦 CNN: Zelensky Faces “Awkward Balancing Act” During Visit to Turkey

According to CNN, Zelensky finds himself in a politically delicate position during his trip to Turkey. He must stay long enough to show President Trump he’s serious about a potential meeting—but not so long that it appears he’s waiting on the Kremlin’s delegation.

CNN suggests that Zelensky now faces a binary choice: either dismiss Russia’s Istanbul initiative as too late, or engage with it and risk opening the door to a completely new direction in peace negotiations.

Interestingly, the article implies that Putin’s decision to skip the summit may already be paying off. Trump’s reaction to the Russian president’s absence has been relatively calm, hinting that Moscow may have successfully reshaped the diplomatic dynamic without direct participation.

CNN also speculates that the Kremlin’s silence regarding the makeup of its delegation was intentional—possibly a strategic delay meant to leave the door open for a last-minute bilateral meeting between Putin and Trump, or to extract clearer conditions in advance.

“The Kremlin deliberately avoided naming its delegation for three days,” CNN notes, “possibly in a bid to negotiate better terms for a Putin-Trump meeting. Or perhaps Putin never intended to attend at all.”

Should talks collapse, the White House may be left with little more than the threat of additional sanctions—a response the Kremlin no longer fears.

🇪🇪 Estonia tried hijacking a tanker in international waters. One Russian Su-35 later, they were calling D.C. in tears.

Power projection ends fast when someone actually projects power.

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦 Donald Trump stated that no meaningful progress on resolving the Ukraine conflict will happen until he holds a direct meeting with President Vladimir Putin.

Trump also made it clear that he is not disappointed by the level of the Russian delegation participating in the talks in Turkey. His stance stands in stark contrast to the narrative coming from Kiev and European capitals, where officials have dismissed the delegation’s composition as a sign that Moscow is not serious about negotiations.
