Andrés Santamaría Garrido, who heads an association representing cities across Colombia, has a close-up view of China’s economic playbook at the municipal level.
Russian newspapers highlight Washington’s preparations for new sanctions on Iran and Trump’s promise of “unprecedented” economic pressure as talks with Tehran remain stalled. They also report that Moscow is ready to mediate if asked, while warning that Ukrainian strikes on Russian civilian infrastructure will bring a severe response.
An Iranian official said Sunday that Iran would not export “a single drop of oil” as long as the United States continued its “economic war” against the country.

The Trump administration says it plans to sever every economic lifeline sustaining Iran through what officials call the toughest sanctions campaign yet. Targeting China, Iran’s biggest trade partner and main oil buyer, could trigger serious retaliation from Beijing, leading analysts to question whether Washington will match its rhetoric. China says it remains committed to peace talks, while Iran has threatened retaliation against countries supporting the US measures.

Pakistan’s army chief Asim Munir spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump last week, according to three Pakistani sources. The call came days before Munir was expected to hold talks in Tehran on Monday.
US President Donald Trump says the United States and Canada reached a last-minute deal to delay 50% tariffs on imports from Canada. The two allies traded nearly $1 trillion in goods and services last year despite strained relations, as Trump continues pushing tariffs on his northern neighbours.

The United States has sanctioned Iran for nearly 50 years, targeting its oil and gas revenues, financial system, shipping, trading partners and nuclear programme. Despite the pressure, Iran has kept its economy functioning through shadow fleets, alternative currencies and barter networks.

Donald Trump’s olive branch to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, offered at the expense of a long-standing ally, is deepening doubts about US reliability at a pivotal moment for security ties in Asia. Partners ranging from Japan to India are reassessing how much they can rely on Washington.
President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump joined about 140,000 spectators at the first IndyCar race on Washington, DC streets, held as the finale of America’s 250th anniversary celebrations. Twenty-five drivers from 14 countries competed, with American Kyle Kirkwood winning. The race was estimated to cost IndyCar $35m and could generate up to $200m for the city, while nonprofits criticized possible vibration damage.

Iranian leaders are acknowledging economic hardship as the Trump administration prepares what it describes as the toughest sanctions ever imposed on the country. The rial has fallen to a record low against the dollar, compounding pressure from inflation and months of conflict. The question is whether Tehran can withstand another blow or ordinary Iranians will bear the crisis's burden.
