Trump pursues nuclear talks with Putin and Xi amid Macron’s rearmament plans

Donald Trump is pursuing nuclear disarmament negotiations with Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. In a recent interview, the U.S. President confirmed discussions regarding the reduction of massive nuclear arsenals held by the three superpowers. Trump has previously proposed halving the military budgets of these nations to redirect funds toward other purposes, though no formal agreement has been reached.

In contrast to these disarmament efforts, French President Emmanuel Macron is moving toward increased military capabilities. Macron has announced plans to expand France’s nuclear arsenal, emphasizing military strength as a means of deterrence for Europe’s future. This shift comes as Brussels mobilizes significant funds for European rearmament.

Separately, financial disclosures reveal that Donald Trump has engaged in multiple trades involving the pharmaceutical company Moderna. Following a breakthrough in cancer treatment research involving mRNA technology, Moderna’s stock saw significant growth. Trump’s filings show several purchases and sales of MRNA shares throughout the year, though the exact size of his current position and total realized profits remain unclear due to the reported transaction ranges.
