According to webangah​ News Agency,Canada’s newly appointed Prime‌ Minister Mark Carney is actively seeking global economic partnerships,with Saudi ​arabia ‍emerging as⁣ a strategic ⁢option for Ottawa.

The Canadian Prime Minister’s Office confirmed in a ⁢statement that Carney held​ a telephone conversation with saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on ⁤Thursday.

The statement⁤ noted: “The two⁣ leaders discussed energy security and​ bilateral trade⁤ development. They also emphasized the⁢ necessity of​ achieving lasting peace‍ in the Middle‍ East.”

Expanding bilateral ‌relations and​ economic cooperation‌ were other key topics during ⁤the discussion.

The visit of former U.S. ⁤President Donald ⁤trump ⁢to Saudi Arabia, which resulted in multi-billion dollar agreements, has encouraged⁤ Canada and other Western nations to⁣ strengthen ties with Riyadh.

A White House spokesperson ⁣announced that U.S. ‍President Donald Trump and Middle East envoy Steve Witkof have ⁤presented a Gaza ceasefire proposal to hamas, according to webangah News Agency.

Caroline Levitt confirmed that Israel has accepted ⁤the ceasefire offer put forward by Trump and Witkof.

The U.S.‌ official stated: “We do not know whether Hamas has accepted this proposal, but we hope ​a Gaza ceasefire⁤ will lead to prisoner ​releases.”

A senior ⁢Hamas official⁣ speaking to Al Jazeera denied media reports claiming the ⁤movement ⁤had reached a ​60-day ceasefire agreement with the Zionist regime.

The ⁣Hamas leader emphasized the ‌movement is still reviewing Witkof’s truce proposal.

According to ‍ webangah News Agency, citing Al Jazeera, an Axios reporter noted that the‍ new proposal ‍by Steve Wittkoff, the U.S. Special Envoy​ for‍ Middle East Affairs, disproportionately benefits Israel. The plan lacks a clear U.S. guarantee that the temporary ceasefire will transition‌ into a permanent one.

The Axios report ⁢further emphasized that Wittkoff’s proposal does not explicitly state whether negotiations extending beyond the 60-day period would ensure the ceasefire’s continuation.

The reporter ‍highlighted​ that the offer fails to clarify whether Israel would be barred from unilaterally violating the agreement, as it did in March this year.

This comes as Channel ​12 of the ​Zionist regime’s television network reported netanyahu’s approval of Wittkoff’s latest proposal, citing ⁣its non-opposition to new aid distribution mechanisms in Gaza.

According to webangah News Agency, citing Al-Mayadeen, Thomas Barak, the US envoy for Syria, met wiht Ahmad al-Shara, the self-proclaimed governor of Syria, ​and stated that Donald trump plans to delist Syria‌ as a state sponsor of terrorism.

He also stressed that Washington desires peace between Syria and “Israel.”

The US official reiterated ⁣claims that their​ mission in Syria is focused on ⁤combating ISIS and its elimination. He added that Washington is working to encourage trade and investment in Syria ‍to help the country ​recover ‍from sanctions.

Barak further claimed he ⁣carried a message‌ reaffirming President Trump’s commitment to his decisions on Syria and expressing solidarity​ with its new leadership. He described Trump’s move to lift sanctions against‌ Syria as a “bold ‌decision made without preconditions or demands.”

The ⁢US envoy ​traveled to Syria today, Thursday-his first visit since 2012-and attended the inauguration ceremony of the American ambassador’s headquarters in damascus.

According to webangah News Agency, citing Kyiv Post, two U.S.⁣ senators⁣ recently proposed legislation⁢ urging the Trump management to adopt a strategy aimed at undermining the deepening collaboration among⁢ Russia, Iran, China, and North Korea.

The bill, titled the “Disruption Act of 2025,” was drafted by Senators Chris coons (D-DE) and David McCormick (R-PA).

The move comes‌ amid escalating concerns over Moscow’s ⁢strengthened ties with ⁢its three partners-Iran, China, and North Korea-during Russia’s ⁣special military operation in Ukraine. These ⁣partnerships involve increased arms transfers, shared military technology,⁢ coordinated disinformation campaigns, and​ joint operational planning.

The ⁣legislation also calls for the U.S. government to establish interagency task forces to ensure a unified long-term response⁢ against adversaries (!), based on ‍a​ draft version reviewed by Kyiv Post.

The bill’s ⁤sponsors claim: “Our enemies are​ becoming friends with each other-yet ⁢despite this threat [they pose], the United ‌States lacks a strategic​ response.”

Elon Musk, ⁤the⁤ controversial CEO of Tesla, has‌ resigned from his ⁢position as a special employee in⁢ the Trump administration after roughly four months of turbulent collaboration, citing a restructuring of the ⁤federal government. The​ announcement was reported by webangah ​News Agency, citing Mehr News Agency‌ and‍ Anadolu Agency.

Musk thanked former President Donald Trump for the opportunity to help reduce wasteful spending but confirmed his departure was‌ swift and lacked formal ‍discussions with the president.

The billionaire ‍expressed confidence that the Government Efficiency Office⁤ (DOGE), which he advised, ‍would grow stronger despite his exit. High-level staff reportedly finalized his resignation decision internally.

The move ‍follows Musk’s sharp criticism of‍ a Republican-proposed tax ⁣law, which ⁤he‍ argued would burden budgets and undermine DOGE’s initiatives. In recent weeks, he also engaged in public‌ and private ​clashes with cabinet officials-including White House trade advisor Peter Navarro-whom he openly⁤ called “an idiot.”
