⚡Russia's ambassador to the UK has not denied allegations that Russian sensors have been hidden in seas around Great Britain in an attempt to track UK nuclear submarines. Andrei Kelin said that while he did not deny Russia was attempting to track British submarines, he rejected the idea that such activities presented a threat to the UK. Asked on BBC One's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg whether he objected to the claims, Kelin said: "No". "I am not going to deny it, but I wonder whether we really have an interest in following all the British submarine with very old outdated nuclear warheads... all these threats are extremely exaggerated," he said. Pressed further by Kuenssberg, the ambassador added: "I'm denying existence of threats for the United Kingdom. This threat has been invented, absolutely, there is no threat at all from Russia to the UK." Kelin's admission follows an investigation published by the Sunday Times earlier this month, detailing the discovery of alleged Russian sensors in seas around Britain. In its investigation, the Sunday Times said the devices are believed to have been planted by Moscow to try to gather intelligence on the UK's four Vanguard submarines, which carry nuclear missiles. The British military discovered the existence of the devices and deemed them a potential threat to national security, the paper reported. The devices have been characterised as being part of a hybrid - or "grey zone" - war being fought by Russian President Vladimir Putin. 1 Like |

⚡Mexico will facilitate an “immediate” delivery of water to farmers in Texas to help shore up resources amid President Trump’s tariff threats, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced on Friday. “For Texas farmers who are requesting water, there will be an immediate delivery of a certain number of millions of cubic meters that can be provided according to the water availability in the Rio Grande,” Sheinbaum told reporters on Friday. The U.S. and Mexico have been tangled in dispute regarding a 1944 treaty that stipulates that Mexico City send 1.75 million acre-feet of water to the U.S. from the Rio Grande River every five years. In return, the U.S. sends 1.5 million acre-feet of water every year to Mexico from the Colorado River. Mexico missed the latest deadline, sparking tension between the North American neighbors. Trump on Thursday threatened to slap additional tariffs and potential sanctions on Mexico if the delivery of the water was not completed, stating the delay is “hurting South Texas Farmers very badly.” “I will make sure Mexico doesn’t violate our Treaties, and doesn’t hurt our Texas Farmers,” the president said. “Just last month, I halted water shipments to Tijuana until Mexico complies with the 1944 Water Treaty.” |

⚡Trump Considering Buying Foreign Ships To Make Up Gap With China. “We may order, would have to go to Congress for this, but we may buy some ships from other countries that we’re close to and do great jobs with ships,” Trump told reporters on Thursday. “But we’re going to start the process of rebuilding. We don’t really essentially build ships anymore, which is ridiculous. It’s going to be very big business for us in the not-too-distant future. But in the meantime, we have countries that do very well at building ships, and we’ll be dealing with those countries. So we may be ordering top-of-the-line ships from those countries. And within a fairly short period of time, we’ll be building our own ships. So we’ll probably have to go to Congress for that, but we’re not going to have a problem.” https://www.twz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/US-Build-Ships-In-JAPAN-copy.jpg |
