Trump claims Iran ‘fully’ agreed to major nuclear inspections, but Tehran sharply fires back

‘Compromised PM listens like an obedient servant’: Rahul Gandhi slams Modi

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday sharply criticised the United States (US) and Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the US Navy strikes on an oil ship in the Gulf that killed three Indian sailors. In a post on X, the Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition said, “Just days after the murder of three Indian sailors in American attacks – no remorse, no apology. On the contrary, America has continued issuing orders.” “Read their words: `Comply immediately with the orders of the US military.` No violation `will be tolerated’,” he added. “A free country would never tolerate such language.
