The U.S. drafted but never released a statement condemning UK, France and Canada over plans to restrict imports from Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

The September 8 draft, reportedly pushed by an aide to U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, accused the countries’ actions of contributing to antisemitism and compared them to the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.

The statement was not backed by senior White House or State Department officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio later avoided directly criticizing the measures, saying only that the U.S. would not follow the UK’s decision.

Argentina's President Javier Milei:

Both Trump and Netanyahu are two people who are far above not only the average individual, but also within the concert of nations.

Netanyahu is an extraordinary leader with a geopolitical vision, and someone who understands the link with the cultural battle like very few people in the world.

Argentina's President Javier Milei:

If it were not for Netanyahu, I have doubts that Israel would still exist today, and that would be a real danger not only for Israel, but for Europe and the entire West.

Argentina's President Javier Milei:

The Falkland Islands are Argentine, so we will not give up on that claim.

They are Argentine by history, by right, by geography, and we will continue demanding them and we will achieve that at some point through diplomatic means that we recover them.

This has already happened at another time with the United Kingdom — it happened with Hong Kong. Why should it not happen with us?

Argentina's President Javier Milei:

The United Kingdom has major problems. Today it is already facing demands for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to separate.

Therefore, it is likely that at some point the United Kingdom will come to reflect and return the islands that are ours.

Argentina's President Javier Milei:

Argentina is the new promised land.

Kremlin:

The Kremlin welcomes the U.S. invitation for Putin to attend the G20 summit, and the matter will be handled through diplomatic channels.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune told Axios that Trump is “not really dug in” against AI guardrails, despite publicly dismissing AI safety fears as a “hoax.”

Thune said he believes AI threats are real and supports legislation requiring companies to mitigate and report serious risks from advanced AI systems.

His bipartisan bill with Sen. Amy Klobuchar is still being negotiated, with Democrats pushing for mandatory pre-deployment testing and stronger federal rulemaking powers.

NEW: Türkiye-Iraq joint statement says Türkiye will gradually hand over its Bashiqa-Zilkan military base to Iraq per an agreed timeline, in exchange for Iraq fully establishing state authority in Sinjar and removing banned foreign armed groups.

They also agreed to accelerate trade, investment, and the Development Road project.

Former CIA Director David Petraeus:

Western officials assess that Russia is now losing 6,000 more personnel each month than it is recruiting, and that helps explain reports that Russian generals are pressing for additional mobilization in the next few months.

Zelensky:

Met with Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa in New York.

A year ago here at the General Assembly, Ukraine and Syria restored diplomatic relations.

It is important that over this year there is already political, economic, and security momentum, including our dialogue at the leaders' level.

Ukraine is open to continuing to develop this and to working together for greater security in all dimensions and for every region.

Boris Johnson:

This is not the moment to try to put more pressure on Ukraine by depriving them of the ability to strike Russian oil and gas refineries. It is absolutely absurd that we’re having a conversation now.

This is a David and Goliath struggle. David’s got a slingshot that is able to take out Russian refineries, Russian assets. Why are we taking David’s slingshot?

Why are we asking the Ukrainians to put down their sling? It’s absolutely insane.

Boris Johnson:

Putin wants the whole of Ukraine. He wants to win, and that’s all there is to it.

I’ve talked to President Trump about this many times, and he genuinely thinks that Putin doesn’t want the whole of Ukraine and that there’s a deal to be done.

BIG: China has taken possession of F-35 stealth fighter parts — a cockpit canopy and weapons-bay door — that were inexplicably rerouted to Hong Kong during a UPS shipment from Australia to the US.

The Pentagon says it is working to retrieve the components.

Türkiye and Russia had agreed on transferring the S-400s to the UAE to clear the path for lifting US CAATSA sanctions and Türkiye's return to the F-35 program.

But Israel pressured the UAE not to buy them, precisely because Israel doesn't want Türkiye back in the F-35 program.

Ankara has developed a new formula to bypass the Israeli veto, possibly with US backing.

Polish President Nawrocki on Russia:

Russia displays the same imperial arrogance that, in the past, led to unimaginable suffering and the tragedies of two world wars.

Polish President Nawrocki:

Poland is particularly aware of the consequences of Russian colonialism and imperialism.

We’re determined to counter the threats the Kremlin’s aggressive policies are posing to us.

Zelensky:

I met with President of Türkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan. I thanked him for his consistent support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.

We discussed bilateral issues as well: the free trade zone and the potential Drone Deal. I am grateful to Türkiye for its willingness to help in the pursuit of peace.

WATCH: Russian reporters shout at Zelensky:

When will you go to Moscow?

His reply:

On a rocket!
