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.
It has been reported that the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) is planning to investigate and find out why Uber left Nigeria.
While FAAN has shared that it had no involvement in Uber’s exit, the FCCPC stated that it will find out what led to the decision, following concerns and complaints from users about the company’s exit.
FAAN also shared that it understands consumers’ concerns, as people are worried about the holiday period, when people coming into the country may need rides and Uber is no longer available, as it was a reliable source of transportation.
Since Uber exited Nigeria, rumours have been circulating over why the company left the country. One of the claims suggested that FAAN was part of the reason for the exit.
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has now addressed the rumours and claims of its involvement in Uber’s decision to leave Nigeria.
FAAN said it could not speak for Uber’s decision, noting that the company likely had its own economic and regulatory considerations for leaving Nigeria.
FAAN’s Managing Director, Olubunmi Kuku, said “I can’t speak to Uber’s exit from Nigeria. I am sure they have their own economic and regulatory decisions as to why they chose to exit.”
Governor of Akwa Ibom, Pastor Umo Eno, reflected on a career choice he made when he had no choice back then.
The governor recalled how he made not less than ₦10 million in a month from selling bread and akara.
He stated “I started selling Akara and bread. Back then, I was doing Akara Burger — we opened the bread and put Akara inside for you. I made not less than ₦10 million in a month.”
Many Nigerians reacted and wondered if his reflection was in response to what the First Lady advised Nigerians earlier about selling corn.
