NEW: An internal Kremlin memo outlines a potential economic reset with the Trump administration, including a dramatic return to the US dollar settlement system if a Ukraine peace deal is reached.

The document proposes closer US-Russia cooperation in energy, aviation, nuclear power, and critical minerals, along with preferential terms for American companies reentering Russia.

It also suggests joint efforts to promote fossil fuels over green energy and compensate US firms for past losses.

It remains unclear whether the proposals have been formally presented to Washington.

Trump's Border Czar Tom Homan on Minneapolis:

I have proposed, and Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude.

A significant drawdown has already been underway this week and will continue.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei:

Dear nation of Iran, yesterday, the 22nd day of the month of Bahman this year, you did a great thing. You made Iran proud.

You supported the Islamic Republic as always and added to its power.

The enemies who, in their statements and plans, sought the surrender of the Iranian nation, were disappointed.

With divine grace, you carried out this great task yesterday, and God Almighty will reward such a presence and such a grand movement.

This reward will be more honor, more power, and more complete independence, God willing.

I thank the entire Iranian nation and offer my abundant greetings to each and every person who participated yesterday in this massive nationwide gathering.

NATO's Rutte:

Do you know what is the biggest difference between NATO and what was formerly known as the Warsaw Pact?

NATO is a coalition of democracies with free media and various types of politicians.

We always have debates and discussions within NATO; it would be boring if that was not the case.

The good news is that this alliance always finds a way forward to come together.

Israeli authorities charged a civilian and a reservist with using classified military information to bet on future Iran-Israel operations via Polymarket, earning about $150,000.

NATO's Rutte:

NATO will never accept a security vacuum in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

You will understand what that means — and others will too.

I leave it a little bit vague what that means. But let them think what it might mean.

An Anthropic safety researcher resigned, warning the “world is in peril” due to rapid AI advances.

Mrinank Sharma said the safety team “constantly [faces] pressures to set aside what matters most,” raising concerns about bioterrorism and other catastrophic risks.

Anthropic was founded to build safe AI, yet even its CEO Dario Amodei has warned AI progress is moving too fast and called for regulation to slow it down.

The departure follows a broader trend: senior AI safety researchers — including members of OpenAI’s former “Superalignment” team — have quit, arguing companies are prioritizing profits over reducing the dangers of building “AI systems much smarter than us.”

Hungary’s top opposition leader Péter Magyar claims allies of PM Viktor Orbán are preparing a “Russian-style” sex-tape smear campaign against him ahead of April’s election.

Magyar says journalists received a link to footage from a surveilled room and suspects authorities plan to release a “secretly recorded” and “possibly manipulated” video showing him in an “intimate encounter” with a former partner.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić:

Serbia is a much smaller country than Türkiye, so we know it cannot be one of Türkiye’s most important partners.

However, Türkiye is a very important partner for Serbia.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić:

We are aware of Türkiye’s political importance.

We know the role it plays in the economy, in the military sphere, in the defense industry, and across every aspect of our society.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić:

Some people in Serbia are not aware that Turkish companies are investing here and that there are extremely important business opportunities available.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić:

President Erdogan is a far more experienced leader. From time to time, I may say something that he does not always particularly appreciate, but because he is a very wise person, he waits for the tension here to subside.

I would like to thank President Erdogan for always being willing to listen to us.

Serbian President Vučić to Erdogan:

We have great respect for your leadership.

Serbian President Vučić in Türkiye:

Today, for the first time we spoke about cooperation in the military and technical field; we discussed cooperation between our armies.

If we can achieve cooperation here, we believe that together we will be able to preserve peace and ensure a better future for all nations.

Serbian President Vučić to Erdogan:

We speak to one another with the utmost respect.

When I speak with you—a great leader, not only of Türkiye but also of the region and a figure with leadership on the global stage—I approach you with that same deep sense of respect.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian:

They repeat rumors, most of which are lies.

I want to say to that person who claimed it is like this: come out. I will give him authority.

Let that same person investigate. If it is like this, they should hang us.
