Jacques Rupnik, Research Professor at Paris Sciences Po to Clash Report:
U.S. Excludes Europe from Security Talks
Can Türkiye Broker a Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire?
Joint European Defense Strategy?
U.S. Excludes Europe from Security Talks
When the American president makes a direct deal with Putin about a war in Ukraine, it questions the whole alliance. Europeans were totally ignored.
Can Türkiye Broker a Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire?
Türkiye has a unique role, speaking to both sides. Türkiye can host and broker a deal if Russia accepts the terms of a ceasefire.
Türkiye is part of NATO, yet maintains dialogue with both. No other country has this privileged position.
Joint European Defense Strategy?
Talking about it is one thing, but do we have the will and capability? Of 27 EU members, maybe only half are willing and able.
France and Britain lead—an opportunity for the UK to ‘return to Europe’ post-Brexit.

Fears of Houthi Strike on British Aircraft Carrier HMS Prince of Wales
British military planners worry that the HMS Prince of Wales, a £3.5 billion aircraft carrier, could be targeted by Houthi rebels as it sails through the Red Sea en route to the Far East.
The ship will pass the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a hotspot for Houthi attacks on British and U.S. vessels.
Some UK defense officials question the viability of such large carriers in modern warfare.

Tensions between Türkiye and Israel are escalating over the future of Syria following the fall of President Bashar al-Assad.
Israeli officials fear that a strong central government in Syria could empower jihadist factions and Iran-aligned forces, worsening security along Israel’s northern border.
Instead, Israel appears to favor "a fragmented Syria" to prevent Tehran from reestablishing influence in Damascus.

Turkish Defence Minister Yasar Güler:
The terrorist organization PKK and all its affiliates operating under different names and in various regions—regardless of their location—must immediately decide to dissolve and unconditionally surrender their weapons without delay.
Any statement or action to the contrary is meaningless and will remain so.
Issues such as a ceasefire, which are not mentioned in the text, should not be brought up.

UK PM Starmer:
We can't allow President Putin to play games with President Trump's deal.
The Kremlin's complete disregard for President Trump's ceasefire proposal only serves to demonstrate that Putin is not serious about peace.
Putin "is trying to delay" a ceasefire.
If Russia finally comes to the table, then we must be ready to monitor a ceasefire to ensure it is a serious, and not just a tactical pause.
