Global Images Ukraine via Getty Images Leaders from France, Germany and Poland have travelled to Moldova to show support for the country's accession to the EU and warn of Russia's "relentless" efforts to undermine that ambition. The visit comes as Moldova marks 34 years of independence from Moscow, declared as the Soviet Union fell apart. But it is also taking place a month before critical parliamentary elections in which the EU and the Moldovan government fear pro-Russian elements could gain ground. Flanked by European heads of state, Moldova's pro-Western President Maia Sandu told her country that it proved EU membership was "not a distant dream, but a project we are working on", one that is vital as a guarantee of security.

Trump once called for ‘aggressive action’ against TikTok. Now the White House has joined the app

The White House has officially joined TikTok, despite US President Donald Trump previously calling for "aggressive action" against the social media platform. He even signed an executive order in 2020, during his first term in the Oval Office, suggesting the Chinese-owned app was a threat to national security.

Trump calls Israeli PM a ‘war hero’, and adds ‘I am too’

US President Donald Trump has described himself as a "war hero" and praised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a "good man" and fellow "war hero" during a radio interview. Trump, who evaded the Vietnam War draft, justified giving himself the label on The Mark Levin Show on Tuesday because of his decisions about the use of military force.

Texas Democrats refuse police escort, blocked from leaving state house

Several Texas state House Democrats ripped up the written agreements that allowed them to leave the chamber with a police escort and returned to the House floor.
