Russia Seeks Comprehensive Talks with U.S. on Ukraine
Russia has called for comprehensive discussions with the U.S., insisting that the Ukraine conflict must be included.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov emphasized that dialogue should address all accumulated issues, including nuclear risks and the U.S.’s involvement in the Ukraine conflict.
“It is impossible to rip out any individual segments from the general complex of accumulated problems, and we will not do this,” Peskov stated, highlighting the need for a broad, inclusive dialogue.
The U.S. asserts that any talks must prioritize Ukraine’s interests and rejects Russia’s claim that arming Ukraine makes it a direct participant in the conflict.
Peskov pointed out the growing list of issues requiring discussion, particularly those related to global security.
This call for dialogue comes amid heightened tensions, with President Putin visiting North Korea, signing a mutual defense agreement with Kim Jong Un, and considering providing Russian weapons to North Korea in response to Western support for Ukraine.
Additionally, Putin has hinted at reviewing Russia’s nuclear weapons doctrine, raising further concerns about global security.
The last remaining arms control treaty between Russia and the U.S., which limits strategic nuclear warheads, is set to expire in 2026, adding urgency to the need for comprehensive talks.
President Bola Tinubu speaks on CNG in Nigeria and shares how the benefits from it aren’t even helping the government but are going into the pockets of truck owners.
While speaking on his promise to help the refinery and the removal of the fuel subsidy to better the country, he spoke on CNG:
“Equally, the introduction of compressed natural gas — well, I will appeal to you: we will do more and encourage you, but ask your drivers to let the benefits trickle down to commuters too, because whatever benefit is coming from CNG is going into the pockets of truck owners. It’s not spreading as fast as I would like, but it should spread.
“The refineries you mentioned are going to come back to work. We’re just building a very firm reset and structural reworking of the economics of it.”
The Nigerian youth leaders of Ogun State call on the government for their support to advance youth development in the state.
For International Youth Day, Ogun State held a programme with Nigerian youth leaders, and it was shared.
“Ogun State is at a trajectory moment of transition and continuity, and it’s a political season. We are trying to ensure that youth inclusion is key in the next administration’s agenda.”
“A dedicated ministry will help coordinate opportunities for our young people and ensure that their voices are properly channelled.”
According to reports, fuel stations are reducing their prices a bit. This has become a general thing around Nigeria after the spike due to the removal of subsidy.
The prices are dropping to ₦1,275 and ₦1,299, going lower than ₦1,300 compared to what it was before.
