Ukraine-Russia Talks Derailed, Gaza's Final Chance, & Musk's Battle in Brazil

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

We'll start with a look at a major diplomatic effort that has fallen apart. Ukraine and Russia were reportedly preparing to send delegations to Doha this month to negotiate a deal that could have paused strikes on energy and power infrastructure—an important step toward a partial cease-fire. However, Ukraine's ongoing offensive in Kursk has derailed those plans, putting the proposed negotiations in jeopardy.
Later, we'll shift to the Middle East, where US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is in a race against time. He's on the ground, working to negotiate what many are calling the final chance to end the war in Gaza.
Plus, the U.S. and South Korea have kicked off a large-scale military exercise to strengthen their defense capabilities against North Korea. But Pyongyang is responding with strong rhetoric, labeling the drills as a prelude to nuclear war.
And in today's Back of the Brief, it's a showdown between Elon Musk and Brazil. His social media platform X has shut down its offices in the country after facing legal threats from a Brazilian judge, setting the stage for a high-stakes battle over free speech and censorship.
