US President Joe Biden backs up Putin comments made in Poland

Published

US President Joe Biden has clarified his own ad-lib remarks made in Poland, saying he was speaking directly to the Russian people

During a speech in Warsaw, Biden said Russian President Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” with White House aids jumping in to clear up the incident.

When asked why he made the comment, Biden says he’s “not walking anything back”

As Ukraine and Russia peace talks get set to resume this week in Turkey, it appears Russian President Vladimir Putin is unwilling to compromise.

Ukrainian officials have also played down the major breakthrough after Turkey’s president spoke with Putin on Sunday.

Can a peace deal be made?

However, Ukraine’s president Zelensky says his government is still willing to adopt a neutral status as part of a peace deal.

Speaking to independent Russian media, Zelensky says any such deal made with Russia will need to first be put to a referendum.

Zelensky says his country is “ready to go” when it comes to “security guarantees and neutrality” as well as a “non-nuclear status”.

Neutrality refers to one nation’s agreement to not align militarily with any others.

But with in person talks resuming, some experts say this represents a shift in play behind the scenes, as Russia’s invasion stalls and increasing Western sanctions take their toll.

As the threat of nuclear warfare lingers, the UN Secretary General says there are steps being taken to guarantee the security of Ukraine’s nuclear facilities.

In the besieged city of Mariupol, civilians remain under constant attack, with the city’s mayor saying there are still 160,000 people trapped inside.

Russia has been accused of blocking evacuation attempts, as the UK’s Foreign Secretary Liz Truss warns the West needs to ensure Ukraine isn’t sold out.

Over 330,000 displaced as Middle East tensions escalate

Published

The Middle East is facing a growing humanitarian crisis as renewed conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran sends shockwaves across the region. Families are fleeing cities, villages, and towns, leaving behind homes and livelihoods in search of safety amid rising violence. The UN refugee agency reports that thousands of people are on the move daily, particularly from Tehran and other affected areas in Iran.

In Lebanon, the humanitarian toll is mounting. Over 84,000 people are now sheltering in nearly 400 collective sites, while more than 30,000 have crossed into Syria since the escalation began. Evacuation orders affecting over 50 villages triggered a wave of displacement from southern Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley, and Beirut’s southern suburbs, adding to tens of thousands still displaced from the 2024 conflict. Many are attempting to flee on foot with few belongings, seeking safety in neighbouring areas.

The situation is raising fears of a wider refugee crisis. European authorities warn that displacement of just 10 percent of Iran’s population could rival the largest refugee flows of recent decades. Turkey has prepared facilities for up to 90,000 potential arrivals, while the UNHCR says it requires $454 million in 2026 to support displaced populations across Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, and Central Asia—but has received only 15 percent so far.
