Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will arrive in Ukraine on Aug. 23 for a historic visit, the first time an Indian prime minister set foot in Ukraine since diplomatic relations were established over 30 years ago. India, the world's largest country by population and an increasingly powerful player on the geopolitical stage, has yet to firmly come down on one of the sides in Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. Modi's visit to Ukraine comes just weeks after a trip to Moscow, where he held talks with President Vladimir Putin. The visit included a widely criticized hug between the two leader...

Independent journalist Séamus Malekafzali, an American who lives in Beirut, wanted to make some plans for the weekend. So he opened up Tinder, the location-based dating app. But instead of interested singles, he found an apparent ad from his own government threatening to bomb his city. "The United States will protect its partners in the face of threats by the Iranian regime and its proxies," the ad read in Arabic, along with images of warplanes and the logo of CENTCOM, the U.S. military command responsible for the Middle East and Central Asia. "Do not take up arms against the United States or ...

Taipei (Taïwan) (AFP) - Huit militaires taïwanais ont été condamnés jeudi à des peines allant jusqu'à 13 ans de prison pour avoir espionné pour le compte de Pékin, le tribunal estimant qu'ils l'avaient fait par intérêt financier. La Chine considère Taïwan comme une de ses provinces, devant revenir dans son giron, et elle a dit ne pas écarter le recours à la force pour amener l'île sous son contrôle. Ces dernières années, elle a intensifié les pressions militaires et politiques sur l'île démocratique et de facto indépendante. Les deux parties se sont séparées en 1949 à la suite de la guerre civ...

Washington (AFP) - Donald Trump was criticized Friday after he said the top civilian award he gave to a donor was better than the highest US military medal because his supporter remains "healthy and beautiful" while soldiers tend to be dead or shot before being honored. At a campaign event with Jewish supporters late Thursday in New Jersey, Trump turned to Miriam Adelson and noted that during his time in the White House he'd given her the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He said that Adelson -- a major campaign donor and widow of the late Republican mega-donor Sheldon Adelson -- had received an ...

Washington (AFP) - US President Joe Biden's administration on Tuesday approved more than $20 billion in new weapons sales to Israel, brushing aside pressure from rights activists to stop arms deliveries over the death toll in Gaza. The sale comes as Biden has pressed Israel and Hamas to reach a ceasefire after 10 months of bloodshed, although the weapons would take years to reach Israel. In a notification to Congress, the State Department said it had approved a sale of 50 F-15 fighter jets to Israel for $18.82 billion. Israel will also buy nearly 33,000 tank cartridges, up to 50,000 explosive ...

Washington (AFP) - The United States confirmed Monday it would resume sales of offensive weapons to Saudi Arabia, as concerns over human rights in the kingdom's Yemen war give way to US hopes for it to play a role in resolving the conflict in Gaza. More than three years after imposing limits on human rights grounds over Saudi strikes in Yemen, the State Department said it would return to weapons sales "in regular order, with appropriate congressional notification and consultation." "Saudi Arabia has remained a close strategic partner of the United States, and we look forward to enhancing that ...
