Keir Starmer has signalled support for Trump’s hardline approach to Iran, saying stopping Tehran from developing nuclear weapons is a “number one priority”.

While avoiding direct comment on possible US military strikes, Starmer said allies must confront both Iran’s nuclear ambitions and its violent repression of protesters.

Keir Starmer in China:

I am familiar with the Labubu. In fact, I’ve got a little one for myself.

I don’t think it’ll last long with my children.

Contrary to the artificial media-driven war narrative, a structural framework for negotiations is taking shape and making progress.

New post from the Iranian Foreign Minister.

Trump to Fox News:

Iran is talking to us, and we’ll see if we can do something, otherwise we’ll see what happens…

Trump to Fox News:

You know, the last time they negotiated, we had to take out their nuclear, didn't work, you know.

Then we took it out a different way, and we'll see what happens.

Trump to Fox News:

We can’t tell them [Gulf allies] the plan. If I told them the plan, it would be almost as bad as telling you the plan — it could be worse, actually.

Russia’s Alexander Dugin:

It seems that all US is on Epstein’s files. You chose this people, you let them rule on you, you admire them and support them attacking other nations for their greed and appetite. You are complicit.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico’s national security adviser, Miroslav Lajčák, resigned after newly released U.S. Justice Department files showed he exchanged messages with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump:

I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, that under no circumstances are we going to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help.

We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists.

Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property.

NEW: Starlink has imposed a speed limit (about 75–90 km/h) to stop its terminals from working on fast-moving drones.

This affects both Russian and Ukrainian UAVs for now.

Ukraine is reportedly creating a whitelist so only approved Ukrainian terminals will work, blocking Russian drone use.

If this can’t be bypassed, Starlink-based Russian strike drones may disappear.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei:

Americans should know that if they start a war, it will be a regional one.

We do not seek war or attack any country, but the Iranian people will strike hard against anyone who attacks or harms them.

Trump on Iran:

You could make a negotiated deal that would be satisfactory, with no nuclear weapons, and they should do that. But I don’t know that they will.

They are talking to us — seriously talking to us.

Trump on the Epstein files:

I was told by some very important people that not only does it absolve me, it’s the opposite of what people were hoping — you know, the radical left.
