Zelensky:

Everyone recognizes the ballistic threat posed by Russia, and that threat is growing. At the same time, Russian companies that produce ballistic missiles are not yet subject to comprehensive global sanctions.

One of the worst consequences of the Russian war against Ukraine, and also a result of Iranian tactics, is that potential aggressors around the world are seeing the damage that ballistic missiles can inflict.

Therefore, the global ballistic threat will continue to grow, and all anti-ballistic defense capabilities must also increase.

Our FREYJA system can become a common system for Europe, providing integrated protection. FREYJA will be quick to produce and battle-tested.

Ukraine is capable of producing both the missile and the launch system, and the crucial element is cooperation with European countries and companies that have radars, sensors, and everything else needed for an effective anti-ballistic system.

The Trump administration has invited OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and other AI companies to the White House to review a new voluntary AI oversight framework.

Under the proposal, firms could voluntarily submit AI models to the government before releasing them to partners or the public.

It's unclear whether the meeting will shape the final policy or simply present it.

Netanyahu:

I want us, within the next decade, to build our own aircraft.

I want us to have our own stealth aircraft, an unmanned aircraft of the future, because we can never know whether the critical platforms we currently receive from abroad will one day be denied to us.

Netanyahu:

We need to cultivate additional alliances.

That's why I'm investing heavily in our relationship with India, with my friend Narendra, who is one of our greatest friends.

They say Israel is isolated. The support that Israel—and I personally—receive in India is simply unbelievable.

Netanyahu:

The Middle East is no longer the same Middle East. Iran is no longer the same Iran. They've been hit very hard.

They still have capabilities, but look at the last month—they haven't fired at us.

Why haven't they fired? Because they know we can hit them hard enough to deter them. If they attack us, they'll absorb a very severe blow.

Netanyahu:

The overwhelming majority of Iranians admire Israel.

Netanyahu:

There are only two places in the world people cannot leave: North Korea, and Gaza.

People simply aren't allowed to leave Gaza. Countries say, "No, we won't take them, because it would help Israel."

I ask: What about helping the Gazans? Why don't they have the same basic right that billions of people around the world have—the freedom to move?

Netanyahu:

There is an organized, well-funded campaign of delegitimization carried out through social media.

We will have to confront it and overcome it.

Netanyahu:

Israel is the second cyber superpower in the world.

And now we're going to do the same with artificial intelligence.

Netanyahu:

I think Trump's calculation is that he doesn't want to see a collapse of the global economy.

Netanyahu:

There is still a radical Shiite axis, and there is also a radical Sunni axis that is raising its head.

We need to build alliances with Arab countries.

And I'll tell you—with whom else: with Muslims who don't want either this or that.

You'll be surprised how many of them are turning to us. They're turning to Israel. They're turning to me.

Despite Trump's claim that U.S.-Iran talks would begin Monday, Pakistani officials say no meeting has been scheduled and Iran denies negotiations are underway.

Mediators from Pakistan and Qatar are still working to arrange talks.

Trump:

Iranian Leadership is unbelievably duplicitous! They ask for a meeting, some would say “beg,” talks begin, with more scheduled in the immediate future, and they say, openly and proudly, that they’re not having any discussions, that nothing is being talked about, and they’re only dealing with “Oman.”

They then go on to give their usual blather in saying, the Strait of Hormuz will be operated powerfully by them, when it is already completely controlled by the United States Navy and our “Blockade” or, as some say, “The United States Wall of Steel!”

Nothing gets through to Iran, unless we want it to, and nothing will get through, unless a Deal, or Total Surrender, is accomplished. Whether Iran wants to admit it or not, we are, in fact, talking of a solution to a problem that they have caused, for decades.

It is very simple, IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON!
