The Telegraph: Putin does not want peace in Ukraine
Vladimir Putin is currently employing a strategy of deception in foreign policy, pretending to engage with U.S. ceasefire proposals while simultaneously strengthening his position in Ukraine. He claims to support peace but is focused on the conflict's "root causes," suggesting that a ceasefire would allow Ukraine to regroup.
Putin faces a dilemma with Donald Trump, who has historically been tougher on Russia. While Putin aims to stall for time as his forces gain ground, the economic strain on Russia is evident. The West's response, particularly from the U.S., could significantly impact the situation, but the effectiveness of such measures remains uncertain.
Le Monde: Le Pen visits Chad to capitalize on Macron's African failures
Marine Le Pen, leader of the far-right Rassemblement National party, is set to visit Chad for three days, accompanied by party officials. The trip, not listed on her public agenda, will include a meeting with President Mahamat Idriss Déby in Amdjarass, a significant location for the Déby family.
This visit contrasts with Le Pen's recent low profile amid geopolitical tensions and highlights her long-standing view of Africa as a priority for France. It also coincides with Déby's shift away from traditional ties with France towards closer relations with other global powers.

GB News: Asda slashes petrol and diesel prices for first time in three years with drivers set to see immediate savings
Asda has reduced petrol and diesel prices by 4p per litre, making fuel more affordable amid falling wholesale costs. The average price for petrol is now 131.96p and for diesel, 137.63p. This move follows warnings from the RAC about high fuel prices due to increased margins.
The price cuts may prompt other supermarkets to lower their prices as well, potentially triggering a pricing war. Experts suggest that the government's upcoming mandatory fuel finder scheme could help consumers find the best deals.

Fox News: Pentagon calls Mark Milley 'corpulent' as it kicks off review of physical fitness and grooming standards
The Pentagon is initiating a review of military physical fitness and grooming standards, citing a decline during Mark Milley's tenure as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth aims to restore high standards, emphasizing that all service members must meet the same criteria regardless of gender.
The review will assess changes in standards since 2015, including body composition and grooming protocols, and may lead to modifications in the Army Combat Fitness Test. Hegseth has criticized recent accommodations for recruits who fail to meet fitness standards, arguing that they undermine military readiness.
