French President Emmanuel Macron has expressed his belief that the war in Ukraine must end at the negotiating table.

The head of the European Commission has risked a diplomatic spat with London by likening Ukraine's war with Russia to Ireland's "struggle for the right to exist" before independence from the UK.

Conservative MPs were appalled by the comparison from Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission president, with one saying the remarks were “beyond disgusting”, adding: "It seems that UK bashing is alive and well in Brussels."

Mrs von der Leyen made her comments during an address to a joint sitting of the Irish Parliament in Dublin to mark Ireland’s 50-year membership of the European Union.

🇺🇸🇷🇺The words of US Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland that Russia did not resort to the use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine because of Western "warnings" are an attempt to shift from a sore head to a healthy one, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in her Telegram channel, Moscow has repeatedly stated about the inadmissibility of nuclear war.

US Secretary of Defense Austin: The US is building "more deadly forces in the Indo-Pacific" as part of efforts to prevent China from dominating the region the way it intends to.

“China is the only country that has the will and, increasingly, the power to reshape its region and the international order in accordance with its authoritarian preferences. So let me be blunt – we will not let that happen,” he explained.
