If World War 3 broke out and nuclear bombs were launched, most of the world would be in serious danger—but according to nuclear war expert and investigative journalist Annie Jacobsen, there are only two places on Earth where people might actually survive: New Zealand and Australia.

Jacobsen, a Pulitzer Prize finalist and respected voice on military and defense issues, explained that if a full-scale nuclear war happened, about five billion people could die within just 72 minutes. She said a nuclear attack would throw the world into what’s called a “nuclear winter.” That means huge clouds of smoke and ash would block sunlight, drop temperatures, and destroy agriculture around the globe—especially in the middle parts of the world like the U.S. Midwest and Ukraine. These places would be buried in snow and ice for up to ten years…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>> READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

China is telling the United States to stop acting like it’s being treated unfairly by the rest of the world. In a recent article from China Daily, they pushed back strongly against Donald Trump’s claims that other countries are cheating the US in global trade. China is saying that the US is not a victim at all, and the real problem lies within the US itself.

According to the article, the US has been living a lifestyle it can’t really afford. It buys more things than it produces, borrows money to keep its economy going, and has moved a lot of its manufacturing jobs to other countries. China argues that the US is now blaming other nations for problems it created on its own. For example, when the US sees a trade deficit — which means it buys more from a country than it sells — it assumes it’s being cheated. But China says this is a misunderstanding of how trade works.

They explain that just because the US buys more goods from other countries doesn’t mean it’s being taken advantage of. In fact, the US makes a lot of money by selling services, like tech, finance, and media, to the rest of the world. So overall, the US actually benefits from global trade more than it wants to admit…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

The article also criticizes the US for starting a trade war based on this false belief. Donald Trump raised tariffs on Chinese goods, making it more expensive for American businesses and shoppers to buy them. China responded by raising tariffs on US goods too. Instead of helping the situation, this back-and-forth has only made things worse for both sides. China describes these tariffs as reckless and harmful, saying they don’t solve anything and only create more problems. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

China is also frustrated because while the US complains about unfair treatment, it still expects to have the biggest say in how global trade is run. China believes the US wants to make all the rules, but doesn’t want to play by them. That kind of attitude, they say, is not helpful.

The article finishes by saying that instead of complaining and making threats, the US should work together with other countries to build a fair and modern trade system. One that benefits everyone, not just a few powerful countries. China’s message is clear: stop blaming others, take responsibility, and start acting like a real partner in the global economy.

On April 22, a report from the Financial Times, shared by Reuters, said that Russian President Vladimir Putin has offered to stop the war in Ukraine but only if the front lines stay where they are right now. This idea was brought up as part of talks with former U.S. President Donald Trump, who is trying to play a role in negotiating peace.

According to the report, Putin had this conversation in St. Petersburg earlier this month with Steve Witkoff, who is known to be close to Trump and is acting as his special representative in the talks. During their meeting, Putin reportedly said that Russia might be willing to give up its claims to certain parts of Ukraine specifically, areas within four regions that are only partially controlled by Russian forces and still have Ukrainian troops in them…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

What Putin seems to be suggesting is a deal where Russia would stop advancing, and the war would basically freeze in place. That means the land Russia already controls would stay under its control, but they wouldn’t push further into Ukraine. In exchange, Russia would no longer demand the rest of the territories they originally wanted.

This is a big shift, if true, because until now, Russia has been fighting to take over more of Ukraine. Freezing the war could be seen as a way to stop the bloodshed without either side officially “winning.” But it’s important to note that neither side—Russia or Ukraine—has officially agreed to this yet, and Ukraine has said many times that they want all of their land back, including Crimea, which Russia took in 2014.

Trump’s involvement in the talks is also a major detail, since he isn’t currently president. However, with the U.S. elections coming up, it shows that behind-the-scenes discussions are already happening about what the future of the war could look like depending on who’s in charge.

So far, there hasn’t been an official confirmation from the Russian or U.S. governments about the offer, and Ukraine hasn’t made a public comment on this specific report. But if these talks are real, they could be an early sign that both sides are looking for a way to end the war—even if it means making big compromises.
