Summary

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: We’ll start things off with new accusations from Ukrainian President Zelensky, who claims his nation has gathered intelligence that shows China is now supplying Russia with artillery and gunpowder—a major escalation of Beijing’s involvement in Moscow’s war effort. Later in the show—as the US and Iran once again head to the negotiating table this weekend, the UN’s nuclear watchdog chief warns that Tehran is not far from acquiring a nuclear weapon. Plus, in what would appear to be a slap in the face to President Trump, the Kremlin is reportedly planning to use a U.S.-owned food producer it seized last year to supply canned goods to the Russian military. In our 'Back of the Brief—good news for those waiting on that big US-Ukraine minerals deal. According to both Trump and the Ukrainian government, that agreement is set to be inked next week.
