Q: Regarding the summit between Xi Jinping and Trump, how do you view this? Are you jealous?

Putin: Jealousy is something from a completely different sphere — humanitarian relations between a man and a woman. In politics, in international politics, such categories are not really used, I think.

We welcome negotiations between the United States and the People’s Republic of China. Why? Because these are the two largest economies in the world.

Trump:

David Perdue, U.S. Ambassador to China:

We haven’t changed our position on Taiwan and don’t support independence, but don’t support coercion either.

Australia PM: You've seen nothing till you've been at a Modi event. He filled out a Melbourne stadium

Q: Were they cheering for you or him?

PM (laughing): Luckily Modi asked them to cheer for me. The only time 40,000 Australians chanted my name!

Trump on Iran:

They made a proposal, but I rejected it.

Karoline Leavitt on Keir Starmer:

We were in the UK, enjoying lunch with Keir Starmer, when Trump suddenly started ripping into him over his policies.

Trump said: “Your policies here are so stupid. You need to close your borders. You need to deport these people you have in your country. I know your people. They hate what you’re doing.”

Starmer was just sitting there. This was in Starmer’s own house, in his own country. We’re not even at the White House. We’re not even on our own territory.

Of course, I found it entertaining.

India’s Tarang Shakti multinational air exercise begins in Jodhpur, with US F-35 stealth jets taking part for the first time alongside Rafales, F-16s and IAF fighters.

Missions will cover air combat, refuelling, targeting and search-and-rescue.

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov:

We have to remove the Ukraine issue from the road, because it is getting in the way of our path toward mutually beneficial Russian-American relations.

Canada's Foreign Minister Anita Anand:

We are exploring new opportunities with partners in the Indo-Pacific, the Gulf region, and Latin America.

This includes building renewed partnerships with large economies like India and China.

India sends humanitarian support to Afghanistan

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov:

In Venezuela they said Maduro is a drug trafficker and the regime must change. But it turns out they just took the oil industry into joint U.S.-Venezuelan ownership.

Iran was accused of supporting terrorism for 47 years. And then during negotiations, the Americans offered Iran to jointly control the Strait of Hormuz.

Therefore, we understand that the national interests of the United States are quite selfish.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian:

We and Yemen had no involvement in the attack on Saudi Arabia’s pipeline.

It is not unlikely that Israel carried out this action in order to inflame tensions and fuel disputes.
