U.S. President Donald Trump:

"“Trash Island,” Washington, D.C., the nickname for the broken and dilapidated Golf Course that is the subject of frivolous litigation in the United States Court System, before a judge that seems not to want Greatness for our Capital or our Nation (but who knows?), has been badly managed for so many decades that it is a completely nonviable and unsafe Project. Our Plan, developed to the Highest Levels and Standards of Golf, will turn Trash Island into an Island of Beauty and Success! It will be one of the Most Wonderful and Spectacular Golf Courses anywhere in the World. The United States Department of the Interior, and its Experts, are so proud of what has been designed that any delay would be sad, both for them and the Public, which is anxiously waiting for something that is really special! President DONALD J. TRUMP".

South Korea is withdrawing part of its embassy staff from Ukraine over the dispute surrounding two transferred North Korean prisoners of war.

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Park Du-sun cited Kyiv's failure to take any constructive action on the matter, along with the ongoing airstrike threat.

A chargé d'affaires will handle essential diplomatic contacts and consular staff will stay to assist South Korean citizens.

Ukraine apologized over Zelensky's disclosure that two North Korean POWs were transferred to Seoul, but South Korea says the apology was "insufficient."

Foreign Minister Cho Hyun: the confidentiality request came from Ukraine, to protect the soldiers and their families in North Korea.

Seoul is weighing a firm diplomatic response, possibly recalling its ambassador. - Open Source Intel
