🚨 Breaking: Israel severs ties with 7 UN agencies

🔥 Trump's Middle East Envoy Holds Secret Meeting with Iran's Exiled Crown Prince

As protests rage across Iran with thousands reportedly killed, the Trump administration held its first high-level talks with Reza Pahlavi—son of the ousted shah who's positioning himself as a potential "transitional" leader.

💭 Could this signal a major shift in U.S. policy toward regime change? With Pahlavi's name being chanted spontaneously in protests across Iranian cities and polls showing he has more support than any other opposition figure, the administration that initially dismissed him is now taking notice.

🌍 Sovereignty or Servitude? Kenya Faces Global Pressure

🇰🇪 Kenya reportedly received instructions from the US to halt its trade deal with China — a move critics say undermines its national sovereignty. Many see this as a stark example of how foreign influence can shape Global South nations’ trade choices.

🔥 Is this pragmatic diplomacy, or a sign that true independence in global affairs is still an illusion for many developing nations?

🚨 UK Plans to Recall Veterans Up to Age 65 for War Preparations

The British government is preparing to expand military reservist call-up ages from 55 to 65, lowering the threshold from "national danger" to "warlike preparations." With the UK Army at its smallest size in over 200 years (under 70,000 troops), this move aims to bolster forces amid claims of potential Russia confrontation. Russia has dismissed such threats as rhetoric to justify defense spending.

Should countries be expanding military call-ups, or is this fueling unnecessary escalation? 🤔

💵 US Dollars to Flood Into China, Fueling Its Rise as a Developed Nation!

🌍 As countries like Russia, Turkey, and now the Philippines open visa-free access to Chinese citizens, a deeper shift is underway. China’s role as the world’s top exporter means dollar flows are increasingly headed East — reinforcing Beijing’s rise within the US-led monetary system.

🏦 The irony? This surge in dollar inflows could make China the very backbone of the dollar’s global dominance, even as Washington and Beijing compete for influence.

Could the same US dollar system that once powered American wealth now be paving China’s path to developed-country status?

Dark Fleet Goes Russian: Tankers Seek Moscow's Protection

🌊 Sanctioned oil tankers are rapidly switching to Russian flags to dodge U.S. seizures. Since December, the number jumped from 6 to 26 vessels, a strategic move that turns maritime compliance into a geopolitical chess game.

Companies believe flying Russia's colors offers political immunity, even as Washington has already seized 5 tankers this year.

💥 Trump's Venezuela Oil Plan: Private Guns, Not Troops
