US Claims on Russian Oil

During the press briefing, Leavitt also stated that India has assured the US that it will stop buying crude oil from Russia and has committed to purchasing energy products from the United States in the future. She also claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had discussed $500 billion in investment in the US.

Agreement Reached After Modi-Trump Conversation

According to Leavitt, this understanding emerged after a direct phone conversation between President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The White House has linked this to a strategy of strengthening the American economy and reducing India’s dependence on Russian energy.

Tariff Reduction Announced

Donald Trump himself announced details of this trade agreement. He declared a reduction in US tariffs imposed on India from 50 percent to 18 percent. However, some of the claims made by the US do not yet appear to have clear agreement from India.

Many Questions Remain Unanswered

Several aspects of the trade deal are currently unclear. Experts believe that a $500 billion purchase from the US by India is not practically feasible within the existing trade framework. Concerns remain in India, particularly regarding American agricultural and dairy products. Union Minister Piyush Goyal has already stated that the interests of the agriculture and dairy sectors will not be compromised.

Russia’s Reaction

Russia has also reacted to the US claims regarding India’s imports of Russian oil. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that they have not received any official indication from India that it is going to stop buying Russian oil.

Trump Takes Charge of Promotion

Despite the film’s weak start, President Donald Trump has openly come out in its support. On Saturday, he posted on his social media platform Truth Social that he had watched the film for the second time. According to Trump, audiences liked the film very much, and he also found it excellent. He called it a “must-see” and urged people to watch it.

What the Film is About

This documentary focuses on Melania Trump’s life and her journey to becoming First Lady. The film is directed by Brett Ratner and released by Amazon MGM Studios. The story specifically depicts the 20 days leading up to President Trump’s 2025 inauguration.

An Inside Look Before the Inauguration

The film provides a close look at the White House transition, the inauguration preparations, and the Trump family’s return to Washington. It includes several previously unreleased footage and private conversations. The entire story unfolds from Melania’s perspective, showcasing her role, responsibilities, and thoughts.

Not Without Its Admirers

Although the overall viewership was low, some of those who saw the film praised it. Viewers appreciated Melania’s style, her approach to balancing family life, and the way her private life was presented. Some screenings even received applause, and the film was described as a balanced portrayal of the First Lady’s dignity and personality.

Why is Trump Promoting It?

Amidst the weak box office figures, Trump’s active promotion shows that he is serious about this film. It is believed that he wants to reach his supporters and is trying to present Melania’s image from a different perspective.

Donald Trump’s comments are an extension of earlier statements in which he said he had instructed his advisors to eliminate Iran if it was found to be behind any attack on him.

Trump’s latest remarks come amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran over widespread protests in Iran. Trump had openly supported the protesters in Iran and said the US would retaliate if authorities killed people. Tehran, in turn, issued a direct warning to Trump, stating that any attempt to assassinate the country’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would be considered a declaration of all-out war.

Iranian Army’s open threat to Trump:

The Iranian army spokesperson, General Abolfazl Shekarchi, said, “Trump knows that if any aggressor hand is raised against our leader, we will not only cut off that hand, but we will also set their world on fire.” The Iranian military spokesperson’s statement was considered a response to Trump’s interview with Politico. In that interview, Trump called Khamenei a “sick man” and said that it was “time for new leadership” in Iran.

Tensions between Tehran and Washington have escalated since the protests that began in Iran late last year. The demonstrations, initially against inflation and the failing economy, quickly transformed into an anti-government movement. Iranian authorities blamed the protests on a conspiracy by the US and Israel and suppressed them forcefully. International human rights groups say more than 4,500 people were killed in the crackdown. Some estimates put the number at over 12,000.

Khamenei acknowledges thousands of deathsThe internet has been shut down in Iran since January 8, making it difficult to ascertain the true number of deaths. Last Saturday, Supreme Leader Khamenei acknowledged the large-scale deaths for the first time, saying that several thousand people had been killed. He blamed US intervention for the violence.
