A diplomatic incident erupted ahead of the arrival of Russian President Vladimir Putin after envoys of the United Kingdom, France and Germany jointly authored an article for a daily newspaper on Monday (December 1, 2025) that blamed Russia for the war in Ukraine and accused Mr. Putin of “total disregard for human life”. Officials of the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) described the article by the three envoys as “unacceptable and unusual”.


A man accused of shooting two National Guard troops near the White House pleaded not guilty on Tuesday (December 2, 2025) to murder and assault charges during his first appearance before a judge via video from a hospital bed. Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national who was also shot, faces charges stemming from the November 26 shooting that killed Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, 20, and wounded Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24.
