🇺🇸🇧🇾The White House has extended the state of emergency and US sanctions against the Belarusian authorities for another year. A corresponding notification was published in the Federal Register.

The document states that the actions of the Belarusian authorities are still considered by Washington as an "unusual and extraordinary threat" to US national security and foreign policy. This refers to the suppression of democracy, human rights violations, repression against the opposition and civil society, as well as support for restrictions on freedoms after the 2020 elections.

The state of emergency against Belarus has been in effect in the US since 2006. In 2021, it was expanded following protests and the crisis surrounding the forced landing of a Ryanair plane in Minsk.

However, in the spring, Trump lifted some sanctions against Minsk - including those on the strategically important potash sector for Belarus.

🇺🇸The head of the US National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, before leaving her position, promised to publish the results of several high-profile investigations. This was reported by the Daily Wire, citing sources.

According to the publication, materials on the "Havana Syndrome", the COVID-19 pandemic, the "politicization of the federal government", the 2020 elections, and other topics may be published in the next month. Sources claim that the documents are planned to be released in parts - approximately once a week.

The publication also states that Gabbard paid special attention to investigations around the so-called "Russian case" after the 2016 elections and claimed that the Obama administration used the intelligence community against Trump.

According to the Daily Wire, during her tenure, Gabbard oversaw the declassification of more than 500,000 pages of documents, including materials on the assassinations of John Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, and Martin Luther King, as well as documents from the Biden administration on combating "internal terrorism".

Gabbard herself previously announced that she would leave her post on June 30 due to her husband's illness.

🇺🇸🇮🇷❗️Trump reportedly ‘50/50’ on Iran peace deal or restarting war

US President Trump is split “50/50” between reaching a peace deal with Iran and restarting military strikes, the Axios news outlet reports.

Axios reporter Barak Ravid said he spoke to Trump by phone and the president said there’s an even chance of securing a “good” agreement, or deciding to “blow them to kingdom come”.

Trump said he would meet later today with senior aides – including envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, as well as Vice President JD Vance – to discuss the negotiations.

“I think one of two things will happen: either I hit them harder than they have ever been hit, or we are going to sign a deal that is good,” Trump said.

“Some people would much rather have a deal and others would rather resume the war,” he added, rejecting suggestions that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is “worried” about a possible agreement.
