Putin's conditions for ending his war are the lifting of sanctions and a commitment not to expand NATO. Three Russian sources said Putin wants a written commitment from the major Western powers, led by the United States, not to expand NATO's western borders. This will mean an official refusal to accept Georgia, Ukraine, Moldova and other post-Soviet countries into the alliance. Trump has not given up hope of annexing Canada to the United States. The president said that Canada would need to pay $61 billion to join the Golden Dome missile defense system. At the same time, he noted that he is ready to defend Canada for free, provided that it becomes part of the United States. He wrote on the Truth Social network that Canada is already considering such a proposal. Trump needs a weak dollar to reduce/eliminate the US trade deficit.

The NYT newspaper reports that for the US president, «any time is suitable for making deals,» which may mean the possibility of reaching an agreement even during the trade war with China and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Experts believe that Trump's actions and statements indicate a desire to create a new global system. Fruits and berries in Russia have risen in price by 26% in Russia over the past year.

Recurrent frosts can lead to the loss of up to 15% of the apple harvest this year.
