Netanyahu:

Our enemies seek to destroy all of us. All of us.

They make no distinction between right and left, secular and religious, Jews and Arabs.

UAE commentator Abdulkhaleq Abdulla:

The UAE categorically denies that war criminal Netanyahu ever visited the UAE at any time.

There is no welcome whatsoever for a war criminal and the killer of Gaza's children on the pure soil of the Emirates.

The visit that Netanyahu is talking about is a fabrication from his sick imagination, and it is well known that he is a prolific liar who released this lie to serve opportunistic electoral purposes.

Netanyahu:

We will preserve Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty forever and ever.

Hungarian PM Péter Magyar:

As of today, after four years, the wartime state of emergency in Hungary is ending, and with it we are also putting an end to the decree-based emergency rule introduced by the Orbán government six years ago.

We are returning to normality.

Cuba says it has completely run out of diesel and fuel oil, pushing the country into its worst blackout crisis in decades.

Many parts of Havana now get only 2–4 hours of electricity per day, causing protests, food spoilage, transport problems, and major disruption to daily life.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe met Cuban officials in Havana to deliver a message from President Trump: the U.S. is open to economic and security talks if Cuba makes major changes.

The talks included Cuba’s intelligence and interior officials and focused on intelligence cooperation, economic stability, and regional security.

Cuba said it showed the U.S. that it is not a national security threat and should not be labeled a state sponsor of terrorism.

The U.S. is preparing possible charges against former Cuban leader Raúl Castro over Cuba’s 1996 shootdown of two Brothers to the Rescue planes that killed four people.

The case centers on a February 1996 incident in which Cuban fighter jets shot down two civilian Cessnas operated by the exile group Brothers to the Rescue.

An international investigation found the planes were outside Cuban airspace when they were destroyed.

At the time, Fidel Castro led Cuba while Raúl Castro headed the armed forces. Cuban officials have long defended the shootdown as lawful.

Trump posts bashing Biden and praising Xi.

Trump on China:

It’s the two great countries. I call it the G2. They have the G7, they have the G8. This is the G2.

Hannity: People worry about China having nefarious intentions.

Trump: They do things to us, and we do things to them.

Trump:

I told Xi, “I’d love to see you buy oil from Texas and Louisiana and Alaska.”

And he said he likes the idea. I think it’ll happen.

Trump on Xi:

If you went to Hollywood and looked for a leader of China to play a role in a movie, he’s Central Casting. He’s very tall — especially for this country. They tend to be a little bit shorter.

The Pentagon is cutting US troop deployments in Europe after pressure from President Trump over NATO burden-sharing.

A planned deployment of about 4,700 troops from the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team to Poland and Eastern Europe was canceled.

A long-range missile battalion deployment to Germany was also canceled.

Around 5,000 troops are expected to be withdrawn from Germany overall.

Marco Rubio:

There’s a price attached to a nuclear Iran.

If they ever acquire a nuclear weapon, what would stop them from controlling the Strait then? It would become a permanent problem.

Marco Rubio:

The Cuban people should know there’s $100 million worth of food and medicine available for them right now, and the only reason it’s not reaching them is because of the Cuban regime.

Q: What exactly did President Trump ask President Xi for when it comes to Iran?

Rubio: He didn’t ask him for anything. We’re not asking for China’s help. We don’t need their help.

Iran's FM Spokesperson Esmail Baghaei:

He who betrays in secret shall be exposed in public.

FBI Director Kash Patel took a military-arranged “VIP snorkel” tour around the USS Arizona memorial at Pearl Harbor during a 2025 Hawaii trip.

The outing was not mentioned in official FBI statements about the visit.

The FBI also declined to explain why Patel stayed in Hawaii for two extra days after meetings in Australia and New Zealand.

Trump with Xi:

We did discuss Iran. We feel very similar. We want the straits open. We’re closing it now. They closed it, and we closed it on top of them—but we want the straits open.

Trump with Xi:

I just want to thank President Xi and all of his representatives—we’ve become friendly with all of them. Great people.
