Russia has dismissed a proposed 30-day ceasefire in its ongoing war with Ukraine, continuing its military operations in the Kursk border region. Meanwhile, former U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to impose 200% tariffs on European alcohol in retaliation for EU tariffs on American whiskey. This move escalates trade tensions between the U.S. and the European Union, which had already been strained by previous tariffs on steel and aluminum. The developments highlight both the ongoing geopolitical conflict in Eastern Europe and the potential for renewed economic disputes between major global powers. Trump's actions and rhetoric continue to shape international relations as he remains a key political figure.

US politics live: ‘Nothing’: Russia’s brutal ceasefire response
Mr Trump’s tariffs wars are continuing with him taking aim at the European Union. He has now threatened 200 per cent tariffs on EU alcohol in reaction to what he has called a “nasty 50 per cent tariff” on American whisky. That was European retaliation for Mr Trump’s 25 per cent tariff on steel and aluminium.
