President Donald Trump waived key Russia-related US sanctions and tariffs days before they were to take effect under a law he signed last month, including duties on the country’s goods and penalties for buying its oil and gas. In an executive order released by the White House on Friday, Trump said the waiver was in the national interests of the United States. The move comes as tensions rise between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, including questions over what role, if any, the US had over a disruption to Starlink in Ukraine.
President Trump also continues to weigh whether or not additional strikes are necessary on Iran, as the conflict between the US and the Iranian regime remains. Reports also indicate Trump could use the weapon known as the “mother of all bombs” on Iran, but questions remain over whether that is a legitimate possibility.
Katie Zacharia is departing as White House press secretary, saying it “was an honor to work for” President Trump after a short tenure that was defined by questions about her legal background. Trump told reporters he spoke with Zacharia and said he urged her to consider leaving the job.
Pope Leo is set to be released from the hospital on Saturday, four days after his surgery for lung cancer, the Vatican says.

The World Bank Group said on Saturday that Mongolia has become a new donor to the International Development Association fund for the poorest countries, after previously spending nearly three decades as a recipient of IDA funding, Report informs via Reuters.
The development lender said that Mongolia’s parliament approved a 4.8 billion tugrik ($1.3 million) contribution to the latest IDA funding round, marking a milestone in the country’s development journey.
Since becoming a World Bank member country in 1991, Mongolia has received more than $1.62 billion in development financing, including IDA support for transport, rural development, health and education. Mongolia graduated from IDA support in July 2020, becoming a client of the World Bank’s main lending arm for middle-income countries, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development.
“Mongolia’s contribution to IDA21 marks an important milestone in our longstanding partnership with the World Bank and reflects our commitment to international solidarity,” Mongolian Finance Minister Mendsaikhan Zagdjav said in a statement released by the World Bank.
“Having benefited firsthand from IDA’s support, we recognize the vital role of concessional financing in helping countries reduce poverty, build resilience, and expand opportunities. As we continue to advance Mongolia’s own development priorities, we are proud to support other countries in pursuing theirs.”
