Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage have been announced as speakers at the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) conference later this month alongside close allies of President Donald Trump and his anti-climate agenda, DeSmog can reveal.

ARC is a network of influential right-wing figures from across the world, and the group claims that its conference in London will “work to re-lay the foundations of civilisation”.

CNN — Federal agencies across Washington are finding ways to keep funding frozen even after judges last month temporarily blocked the White House’s effort to pause trillions of dollars in federal assistance.

Ukraine was never promised NATO membership as part of any peace agreement with Russia, the US-led military bloc’s Secretary-General Mark Rutte has said. He added that the bloc should only ensure a new conflict between Moscow and Kiev will not break out in the future, he added.

Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Rutte said Kiev’s potential accession had never been tied to resolution of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

“We have to make sure that Vladimir Putin never ever tries again to attack Ukraine, that is crucial ... but it has never been a promise to Ukraine that as part of [a] peace deal they would be part of NATO,” Rutte said.

The presentation discusses President Donald Trump’s approach to negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding the Russia-Ukraine war. Analysts, including John Bolton and former British Commodore Steve Jeremy, argue that Trump has effectively "surrendered" to Putin by adopting negotiation terms that align with Russia’s interests before formal talks have even begun.

Key points include:

European Shock & Strategic Failures: Many European leaders and U.S. officials express surprise and concern over Trump’s stance, but analysts argue that this reaction stems from a long-standing strategic miscalculation by Western elites. NATO and Western leaders have consistently misjudged the situation by pushing political narratives rather than military strategy.

The depth of Australia’s slide into an irrelevant and untrustworthy minnow on the global stage was demonstrated when distinguished UN special rapporteur Francesca Albanese described the Australian prime minister’s refusal to criticise Donald Trump’s plan to turn Gaza into a neo-colonial capitalist venture for the benefit of his family and friends, as “pathetic”.

“Let’s not mince words about what this represents: a surrender of Ukraine’s interests and our own, even before negotiations begin,” says U.S. Senator Adam Schiff.

Kyiv’s backers reacted with shock and outrage to U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement that he had spoken with Russian leader Vladimir Putin and would “start negotiations immediately” with him about the Ukraine war.

U.S. Senator Adam Schiff, a long-time Trump critic who was the lead prosecutor in the Republican’s first impeachment trial, called the president “a great dealmaker all right — for the Kremlin.”

Capitalism is dead. Welcome to technofeudalism.

It is hard to overestimate the significance of the recent phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Donald Trump, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said. He also noted that the presidents have instructed their teams to lay the groundwork for the summit.

The call on Wednesday marked the first known conversation between the US and Russian leaders since the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in February 2022. Trump has since signaled that he is “okay” with keeping Ukraine out of NATO and suggested that it is “unlikely” that Kiev could regain all of the territory it has lost to Russia over the past decade. Trump also noted that the presidents had exchanged invitations to visit each other’s countries.

Donald Trump stated that he wants the European Union to purchase weapons for Ukraine. Ursula von der Leyen has met with JD Vance and they discussed energy security, trade between the EU and the US and also the situation in Ukraine. Pete Hegseth will not announce a new military support package for Ukraine during the Ramstein meeting of Ukraine Defence Contact Group.

Donald Trump has announced his intention to build a gigantic anti-ballistic missile system to counter Chinese and Russian nuclear weapons, and he is recruiting Elon Musk to help him. The Pentagon has long dreamed of constructing an American “Iron Dome.”

“Trump appears to have a better understanding of the causes and conditions of the Ukraine-Russia and US/NATO versus Russia conflict,” retired US Air Force Lt. Col and ex-DoD analyst Karen Kwiatkowski told Sputnik, commenting on Wednesday’s lengthy telephone conversation between the Russian and US leaders and its focus on Ukraine.

“His tendency to be practical (something we are not seeing in his Israel-Gaza policy) is apparent here. The signal is one of deal making and practicality,” Kwiatkowski said.

The call comes at a decisive moment, the observer stressed, pointing out that Congress will be teeing up a new package of aid to Ukraine shortly, with current commitments to run dry in March, as Trump, Elon Musk and the DOGE sniff out “the fraud and corruption of the Biden Ukraine project.”

“Take wisdom from the mouths of mad men” is an old Arabic proverb. It sprang to mind a couple of days ago, when I heard the narcissist leader of the “civilised” world, President Donald Trump, openly calling for the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.

Trump clearly said that Gaza is a “hell”; Gaza is totally destroyed, Gaza is uninhabitable and that Israel will hand it over to him, “when they finish the job”, that is, and that he will turn it into the Riviera of the Middle East. 

I agree with Trump. Gaza is hell. Gaza is totally flattened. Gaza is not fit for human habitation. 

Donald Trump’s trade war risks changing the Asian power balance, forcing Indonesia to move from its historic stance of neutrality to get closer to China. Duncan Graham reports.

Jakarta is not a charmer, but her assets are attractive. Beijing and Washington have long been wooing the Indonesian capital for her strategic power and influence. She’s stayed coy until now, but the time has come to decide. It’s been hastened by discovering that one suitor is coarse, brutal, untrustworthy, and ignorant.

The back and forth about Australia’s desire for an exemption from Donald Trump’s tariffs on steel and aluminium tells a sad tale about our country in this election year of 2025. We’re a wealthy, highly urbanised, industrialised, modern G20 nation. But there remains something of the colony about Australia – a far-flung place constantly looking for older, more powerful friends to look after us economically and militarily.

Trump is the US president Australia had to have
