The #World says that the #usa needs a new president who isn’t allied with Russia … #geopolitics 🤷🏻‍♂️🥂

Donald Trump has said Ukraine needs “a new leader”, a day after making a deal with Vladimir Putin to buy large quantities of Russian diesel.

The US president suggested Volodymyr Zelenskyy has not done enough to end the war with Russia and blamed him for high diesel prices in the US.

“I suggest they get a new leader who can make a deal because he could have made many deals and for some reason he never does,” Trump said.

Trump made the comments as Russia launched deadly strikes on civilians in Ukraine, which Zelenskyy said were a “thanks” to Trump for the diesel deal.

The Ukrainian president has expressed outrage at the agreement announced by Trump on Friday, which the US president said was needed to reduce diesel prices, and comes ahead of November’s midterm elections in which fuel costs are a key voter issue.

The deal, which appeared to blindside Kyiv as it was announced while Ukrainian negotiators were in Miami for peace talks, was described by Zelenskyy as a “gift” to Russia’s president.

He said Russia would use the money it raised from the fuel sales to invest in its war and that “any easing of sanctions” would play into Russia’s hands, “allowing it to kill more, wage war for longer”.

That prediction was realised hours later, when Ukrainian officials announced that a barrage of Russian strikes on the country’s south-east early on Saturday had killed 20 people, including three children.

“Today, Russia expressed its thanks for the lifting of sanctions on diesel exports by dropping five glide bombs on residential buildings in Zaporizhzhia,” Zelenskyy said on social media on Saturday.

Yay! Fuck you #Israeli government!

Pillay's Nobel 'particularly significant' given attacks on international law, ICC head says
The Nobel Peace Prize awarded to former International Criminal Court judge Navi Pillay is especially important given current attacks on international law, the president of the ICC said.

“At a time of profound challenges to the international legal order and the rule of law, this recognition carries particular significance,” said Tomoko Akane in a statement quoted by AFP.

The United States has vowed to dismantle the ICC “brick-by-brick”, furious at the court issuing arrest warrants for Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the military campaign in Gaza.

Washington has sanctioned top ICC officials and has threatened to slap sanctions against the court as a whole, which would cause the institution significant operational difficulties.

“This is an important recognition of the vital role that international justice plays as a cornerstone of lasting peace,” said Akane in her statement.
