Orban concedes defeat. The support of Trump, Vance, Putin, Lavrov, Weidel, Milei, Le Pen, Fico, Babis and many others could not overcome Hungarian anger at a stagnant, corrupt regime

We spoke to diplomats, advisers, scholars, experts and current and former officials in China. Almost all of them see the war in Iran as a grave American error. Register for free to read why: https://t.co/0CDHuDCMDW

So, European nations gathered $750M to buy US weapons for Ukraine, gave the US the money, and now Trump refuses to give them the weapons.

[Donald Tusk @donaldtusk]

Orban’s Foreign Minister has confirmed that he systematically informed Moscow what EU leaders talked about behind closed doors. What a disgrace.

🌎️ | NEW REPORT: The net zero "backlash" is a myth. Voters still back climate action, but politics and media are telling a different story. Our new analysis with Persuasion UK explains why and how we fix it 👇 https://t.co/JdJsCMqyYc

[Ed Conway @EdConwaySky]

Another brilliant chart by @robin_j_brooks, this time illustrating the extraordinary windfall Russia is likely to enjoy as a result of the Iran-related rise in the oil price. THIS will be a big part of the geopolitical story in the coming months👇

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

So Russia provides intel to Iran to help them in war against the US, and in reply Trump lifts sanctions on Russian oil. Almost as though he wants to make Putin the winner in all this

[Rory Johnston @Rory_Johnston]

NEW: US Treasury issued a general license for the delivery and sale of Russian oil loaded on vessels as of March 12.

Moscow continues to be the single largest beneficiary of the Iran War.

So, we knew it was bad — undemocratic expedited process, dodgy retrospectivity and objectionable nullification of claims. But this shows it was doubly worse — a calculated and deliberate ambush to deprive claimants and a policy fait accompli.

SCOOP: Remember when Rishi Sunak watered down the government's green policies because the Tories won the Uxbridge by-election?

Well it turns out that actually did the Tories more harm than good last week ...
