Trump: Putin call went ‘very well’, negotiations to start ‘immediately’

Articles / Government / Russia / Ukraine / White House / World Trump: Putin call went ‘very well’, negotiations to start ‘immediately’ Over three years later, Trump’s desire to “end the killing” will mean the redrawing of Russia-Ukraine borders, saving lives, and the end of billions of dollars in aid and equipment to hte region By: Following his call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, President Donald Trump expressed optimism about the call and posted to Truth Social that Russia and Ukraine will immediately begin negotiations to achieve a ceasefire. He noted that “the conditions for that will be negotiated between the two parties, as it can only be, because they know details of a negotiation that nobody else would be aware of.” “The tone and the spirit of the conversation were excellent. If it wasn’t, I would say so now, rather than later. Russia wants to do large scale TRADE with the United States when this catastrophic “bloodbath” is over, and I agree,” he added. Similar to what transpired from his visits to Gulf nations Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates last week, Trump emphasized that “there is tremendous opportunity for Russia to create massive amounts of jobs and wealth. Its potential is unlimited. Likewise, Ukraine can be a great beneficiary on trade, in the process of rebuilding its country.” Ensuring a timeline for the peace process, he said, “negotiations between Russia, and Ukraine will begin immediately.” Immediately after the call, Trump said he spoke to the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of the European Commission, Ursula Von dear Leyen, French president, Emmanuel Macron, Prime Minister, Georgia, Maloney of Italy, German Chancellor Friedrich Metz and Finnish President Alexander Stubb, briefing them all on the conversation. On May 17, Trump expressed his desire for a “productive day” of negotiations toward a ceasefire between the two nations and that the call was set for the morning May 19. In his post, Trump said that, “The subjects of the call will be, stopping the ‘bloodbath’ that is killing, on average, more than 5000 Russian and Ukrainian soldiers a week, and trade.” With that call’s conclusion, the president said that he will then speak to Ukraine’s president, Vlodymir Zelensky and various members of NATO.

Trump to lift Syria sanctions, give country a ‘chance at peace’

All Things Trump / Articles / Government / Politics & Policy / Syria / White House / World Trump to lift Syria sanctions, give country a ‘chance at peace’ Normalizing relations with the troubled nation could mean further and broader peace in the region. By: Speaking before a crowd of investors, political figures, and business leaders in Riyadh on Tuesday, Trump followed through on previous hints that he would lift sanctions on Syria, adding that they served an important function at the time but that Syria should be given a “chance at peace.” “I will be ordering the cessation of sanctions against Syria in order to give them a chance at greatness,” Trump told an investment summit in Riyadh on Tuesday.

Trump signs historic agreements with Saudi Prince

All Things Trump / Articles / Government / Politics & Policy / Saudi Arabia / White House / World Trump signs historic agreements with Saudi Prince The agreements will increase coordination across business, military, government and culture. By: During his trip to Riyadh on Tuesday, President Donald Trump and Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, signed more than a dozen agreements addressing each nation’s armed forces, justice departments, and cultural institutions. Tuesday’s U.S.-Saudi agreements mark a win for 45th president, who has set a goal of reaching $1 trillion in U.S. investment by the Gulf nation. Since taking office, Trump has already secured $600 billion from the Crown Prince over the next four years. The investments span technology, defense, energy and other sectors including purchase commitments by the Saudis for American goods. Trump will also travel to Qatar and the United Arab Emirates before returning to Washington on Saturday.

Trump’s voyage to Gulf States to strengthen U.S. economic, diplomatic ties

All Things Trump / Articles / Government / Politics & Policy / White House / World Trump’s voyage to Gulf States to strengthen U.S. economic, diplomatic ties Trump’s Gulf States diplomatic travel may have far-reaching and enduring mutual economic benefits between the region and the U.S., and maybe even some semblance of peace. By: This week, President Donald Trump will visit Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates in a trip aimed at fortifying ties and broadening economic cooperation and investments in the region. Building on relationships forged during his first term through the historic Abraham Accords, the trip will focus mostly on economic deals between the U.S. and its Middle East partners, with diplomatic relations as a secondary goal. Billed by regional news publications as “high stakes,” the Gulf States summit will begin on May 13 in Riyadh, followed by meetings in Doha with the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim al-Thani. On May 15, Trump will travel to Abu Dhabi and meet the UAE’s President Mohammed Bin Zayed (MBZ). Possible gift of a new Air Force One to the United States Prior to the trip on Friday, press secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked if this trip could lead to Trump personally profiting from business deals made on the trip. “I think it’s frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit. He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service, not just once but twice,” she responded. Referencing repeatedly substantiated reporting that former President Joe Biden and his family monetized the Biden family name, she told the reporter, “I don’t remember these types of questions being asked of my predecessor about a career politician who was clearly profiting off of this office. That is not what President Trump does, and this White House holds ourselves to the highest of ethical standards.” Nonetheless, the Associated Press and ABC News published stories on Sunday that called into question the propriety — or legality — of a planned gift from the ruling family of Qatar, specifically, a luxury-configured Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet.  The plane would be transferred to the United States Air Force — not to Trump — and the USAF would modify the 13-year-old aircraft to meet the required specifications for presidential aircraft. ABC cited unnamed sources saying that a government legal analysis concluded that it is legal for the Department of Defense to accept the aircraft as a gift and later turn it over to the Trump library, and The New York Times noted that the two current Air Force Ones are more than 30 years old and need frequent servicing, sometimes taking months. Calling the gift-giving entirely into question, Ali Al-Ansari, a spokesman for the Qatari government, said that reports of the plane being offered “during the upcoming visit of President Trump are inaccurate.” Saudi policies a high hurdle to jump The talks with Saudi leaders will cross delicate terrain as Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the country’s de facto leader, has stated his nation won’t normalize relations with Israel until Palestinian statehood has been established and a cessation of the war in Gaza is achieved. Those two requirements are not likely to occur anytime soon. According to The Times of Israel, several Arab newspapers reported that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun will attend Trump’s meeting with bin Salman this Tuesday. The outlet also said that, according to a UK-based Arabic newspaper, the initiative came from the Saudi crown prince and was accepted by the President. Bin Salman was widely accused of ordering the 2018 murder of Jamal Khashoggi, a Saudi dissident and Washington Post journalist. The Biden administration determined in 2022 that bin Salman should be granted immunity in a case brought against him by Khashoggi’s wife, and the case was dismissed that year. Trump will be joined by a large delegation to provide support during the pivotal talks, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who will reportedly fly to the region separately from Trump, to participate in meetings. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is also expected to join the delegation. A large portion of senior staff at the White House, including Trump’s Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and a slate of deputy chiefs, will also be accompanying the president to the Middle East. Destination: Deal-making Business deals involving industries such as oil, plastics, and organic chemicals will be the centerpiece of the trip. Deputy White House Press Secretary Kush Desai told the Just The News, No Noise television show, “I think presidents go over to visit our key allies in the Middle East, and expanding economic ties is definitely a very big part of that. Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, these are some of our major economic and political allies in the region.” Highlighting progress that could be made on previous developments, Desaid said, “I think we’ll see an expansion of investments. The Saudis have already committed to investing hundreds of billions of dollars under this President. I think the Emirates have as well. So I think we’re going to see a deepening of ties, not just in the economic sense, but also in the political and foreign policy sense, as we try to bring back the historic peace that the Middle East saw under President Trump’s first term.” Trump is not planning to visit Israel on this trip.

As ceasefire ends, Israeli strikes in Gaza targeted Hamas officials

Articles / Government / Israel / White House / World As ceasefire ends, Israeli strikes in Gaza targeted Hamas officials As Hamas and its proxies in the region wreak havoc on life and commerce, an end to Hamas could mean an historic time of peace. By: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consec adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incidid ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip exl Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incidid ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip. The barrage of airstrikes that thundered the Gaza Strip this week were likely part of an Israeli military effort to eradicate the Iran-backed terror organization Hamas by decapitating its leadership, according to former Chief of Staff for the National Security Council (NSC) Fred Fleitz. Fleitz, who served at the NSC in 2018 during President Donald Trump’s first term, told Just The News that the airstrikes, which targeted areas like Gaza City, Deir al-Balah, Khan Younis and Rafah, were strategically targeted to take out Hamas leaders. “The attacks we saw overnight were directed at killing Hamas officials. I’m hoping it had a significant effect in knocking out their leadership,” he said. The military operation occurred around 2:30 a.m. local time (00.20 GMT) on Tuesday and has been characterized by Israel as a result of Hamas’ failure to reach further agreements. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said that the organization “repeatedly refused to release our hostages and rejected all offers it received from the US presidential envoy, Steve Witkoff, and from the mediators.” Cease-fire halted According to Palestinian authorities and reported by NBC News and others, more than 400 Palestinians were killed in the attack, though that estimate has not been independently verified. This latest action halted a cease-fire agreement that was reached in January by the outgoing Biden administration in concert with the incoming Trump administration. The phased cease fire placed priority on freeing all of the hostages abducted by Hamas in the Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel. Growing frustration by the Trump administration compelled the president to issue a final warning on March 6, tweeting: “Release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you.” “I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job…This is your last warning,” he continued. Of the coordination that Israel now enjoys with the United States, Fleitz said “when Israel attacked Hamas in the past, it didn’t trust the United States because the Biden administration would leak any details of these operations. Now, we have full cooperation with the U.S. and Israel against this serious terrorist threat that puts more pressure on Hamas and its supporters.” That frustration of the Trump administration was reiterated on Friday by Special Envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff. After traveling to Doha, Qatar along with the National Security Council’s senior director for the Middle East, Eric Trager, negotiations broke down as a result of Hamas’ “impractical” demands. “President Trump has made it clear that Hamas will either release hostages immediately, or pay a severe price,” he said. Hamas still holding at many as 59 hostages The goal of the gathering was to extend the cease-fire beyond Ramadan and Passover through a “bridge” proposal which included the release of remaining living hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. However, as reported by The Times of Israel, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar told AIPAC’s board of directors Tuesday that “US special envoy Steve Witkoff made two different proposals and Hamas rejected both of them.” “We found ourselves at a dead end, with no hostages released and no military action. This is a situation that cannot continue.” Hamas may still be holding 59 hostages, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday, without citing its sources. Up to 24, including one American, are still believed to be alive. Adi Alexander, father to American hostage Aden Alexander, spoke to Just The News about the recent developments and revealed his concerns about the strike’s implications. “The fear is that this action will continue and negotiations will be stalled, and we will be back to where we started at the beginning…everybody’s in limbo, and we had a last resort, which is military action,” he said. In the midst of multiple regional conflicts, the United States has new and unconventional leverage from an unlikely source: Russia. After an hours-long phone call between Trump and Putin to further discuss the latter’s conflict with Ukraine, the duo “discussed the need to stop proliferation of strategic weapons and will engage with others to ensure the broadest possible application. The two leaders shared the view that Iran should never be in a position to destroy Israel.” If you want to read more of the latest by Amanda Head or the team of world class journalists at Just The News, feel free to read or subscribe by visiting JustTheNews.com today.

White House pauses all aid to Ukraine amid rift with Zelensky

Articles / Government / Ukraine / White House White House pauses all aid to Ukraine amid rift with Zelensky The decision comes after Trump criticized the Ukrainian president on Monday after Zelensky claimed that “an agreement to end the war is still very, very far away.” By: President Donald Trump on Monday night ordered a pause on all assistance to Ukraine, including weapons that are on their way and in Poland, a White House source confirmed to Just The News. The decision comes after Trump had a contentious meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday. He also criticized Zelensky on Monday after Zelensky claimed that “an agreement to end the war is still very, very far away.” “This is the worst statement that could have been made by Zelensky, and America will not put up with it for much longer,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “It is what I was saying, this guy doesn’t want there to be Peace as long as he has America’s backing and, Europe, in the meeting they had with Zelensky, stated flatly that they cannot do the job without the U.S. – Probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of a show of strength against Russia.” A consistent criticism of the aid by the Trump administration has been the lopsided investments by the United States compared to that of European Nations In a Truth Social post earlier today, Trump posted, “Europe has spent more money buying Russian Oil and Gas than they have spent on defending Ukraine —BY FAR!” A White House source told Just the News, “The President has been clear that he is focused on peace. We need our partners to be committed to that goal as well. We are pausing and reviewing our aid to ensure that it is contributing to a solution.” If you want to read more of the latest by Amanda Head or the team of world class journalists at Just The News, feel free to read or subscribe by visiting JustTheNews.com today.

Mexico’s follow-through is key to border security; Trump team confirms number of deportees

Articles / Mexico / World Mexico’s follow-through is key to border security; Trump team confirms number of deportees 10,000 troops will reportedly be stationed at the U.S.-Mexico border to help alleviate illegal entry and crime, but concerns remain over implementation and the likelihood these criminals will return. By: With a pin stuck in the tariff war phase of the negotiation, the question now shifts to follow-through by the Mexican government. The Mexican tariff standoff is enjoying a reprieve after the nation’s President announced that a deal was made to pause the tariffs for 30 days. The White House announced the previous Saturday that tariffs would be go into effect for both Mexico and Canada at a rate of 25% as well as a 10% tariff on Chinese imports. The issues cited by the Trump administration reflect his campaign’s emphasis on the fentanyl crisis, illegal immigration, and drug trafficking. On the “X” social media platform Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum said, “We had a good conversation with President Trump with great respect for our relationship and sovereignty” and committed to deploying 10,000 Mexican troops to Mexico’s northern border adjoining the United States. A further concern is whether Mexico’s earnest efforts to keep up their end of the bargain could be corrupted by cartel-loyal troops. According to National Border Patrol Council Vice President Art Del Cueto, not all Mexican troops may be committed to protecting the border, rather, serving as security for Mexican cartels. Del Cueto told the “Furthermore with Amanda Head” podcast on Monday: “my worry is, what are they going to do while they’re out here? Because for the longest time, sometimes we’ve seen the Mexican military, and I hate to say it this way, or people that are dressed like the Mexican military, you get these copycats that actually start protecting the drug loads coming through to the southern border. So we want to make sure that we know it is actually them and it’s not some of these copycats that are getting involved.” This assertion was reinforced by Real America’s Voice National Correspondent and host of “Law and Border” TV show Ben Bergquam. Reacting specifically to the notion that Mexican military acts on behalf of the cartel, Bergquam said, “you have enough of the guys on the take, yeah, that you know you’ve strategically placed them in the right places…you’ve got the official guys doing it for you.” Almost immediately upon taking office, President Trump and border czar Tom Homan began the deportation process starting with a “worst first” method. The focus has been on deporting illegal aliens who have committed crimes subsequent to the crime of crossing the border and in most cases, violent crimes like assault, rape, and murder. The “worst first” policy has not been without opposition. California Attorney General Rob Bonta told ABC News, “there will be pain and harm inflicted by him. It is not all avoidable, but to get to our immigrant communities in ways that are in violation of the law, they’re going to have to go through me, and we will stop them in courts using our legal tools given to us.” Multiple news outlets also pushed fear-inducing headlines citing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids in schools. In one particular instance, it was reported that ICE had performed a raid in Chicago’s Hamline Elementary School. The school’s principal Natasha Ortega said, “we will not open our doors for ICE, and we are here to protect our children and make sure they have access to an excellent education.” It was later revealed that the agents were not deployed by ICE; rather, they were Secret Service agents investigating a protectee in connection with the social media platform TikTok. Democrats have also vocalized concerns that these deportations may inadvertently catch nonviolent illegal aliens in their net. “If you’re not out looking for criminals based on crimes committed, but undocumented immigrants based on their looks, you’re going to sweep up a lot of innocent people, including innocent citizens,” House Democrat Jamie Raskin said in a statement to NBC News. “We’ve already seen cases of racial and ethnic profiling leading to the unlawful detention of U.S. citizens. That’s why I’m demanding answers about some of these profoundly troubling stories we’ve heard about citizens being targeted, detained and questioned.” However, on Wednesday during a press briefing from the White House, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that less than 6% of those detained by ice were falsely detained. Of over 8000 arrested, 461 have been released from custody due to various reasons. This, after she also reported on “X” on January 23, 2025 that “the trump administration arrested 538 illegal immigrant criminals, including a suspected terrorist, four members of the trending Aragua gang, and several illegals convicted of sex crimes against minors.” Furthermore, a future concern is that these criminal aliens might reappear on U.S. soil. Speaking on the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show Tuesday night, Congressman Tim Burchett said, “what worries me about some of those dirt bags that we deport is somehow they might by hook or crook, might get back in the country. If they mess with a child or a lady or anybody in a in a physical manner…again, kids might be watching…I think we ought to send them home in a box.” In many high-profile stories like the NYC subway burning suspect, they were deported and then re-entered the country, in some instances multiple times.
