Trump-Putin Alaska meeting began with an applause, a handshake, then an unexpected ride on the ‘Beast'

The high-stakes Donald Trump and Vladimir Putn in Anchorage, Alaska stared with a scripted opening — both leaders deboarding their respective aircraft, smiling, and shaking each other's hands warmly on the tarmac. Pats on the arm followed by a military overfly greeted the world. But then things changed. Putin was suddenly seen slipping into the back of Trump's Presidential armed limousine 'the Beast', where Bloomberg reported that they held a minutes-long conversation — the first substantial talk in six years — outside the earshot of their aides, media, and other officials. The short ride from the tarmac to the summit room at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, a US military facility, took less than 10 minutes. But it gave both leaders the chance for the most private of conversations at a meeting the whole world is watching and studying intensely. It was unclear whether their ride together was planned, or a last-second improvisation by the pair. The White House didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. On a podium moments earlier, Trump and Putin posed for photographs as reporters shouted out questions. One yelled whether Putin would 'still be killing civilians' but the Russian president pointed to his ear and shook his head that he couldn't hear. Trump then called time and gestured for Putin to walk with him toward the vehicle. The Russian leader was captured by the cameras smiling through the window as it drew away. The Russian presidential limousine stood nearby. A blue-walled room was set up for the talks, adorned with American and Russian flags. Next to Trump were an interpreter, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and US envoy Steve Witkoff. On Putin's side, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov. Shortly before 11:30 a.m. local time, the formal summit began. At stake: the future of Ukraine, peace in Europe, and the economies of Russia and its trading partners, under threat of increased US financial penalties if talks fail. In practice, the actual discussions had already started. Only Trump and Putin may know what was said.

July liquor sales hit by 50% rise in excise duty

Mumbai: Liquor sales dropped significantly in July compared to the first quarter of the 2025-26 financial year on the back of a 50% hike in excise duty in the last week of June. Representational image (Getty Images) The hike pushed up prices of Indian made foreign liquor (IMFL) and country liquor by nearly 60% and 20% respectively, while sales of IMFL and country liquor in July dropped by 10.9% and 9.70% respectively compared to average monthly sales in the April to June quarter. Beer sales, generally low during the monsoon months, too registered a 30% dip in July. Officials from the excise department, however, said the dip in sales would not affect revenues as the quantum of increase in excise duty was much more than the hike in retail prices. 'Our additional revenue target for the 2025-26 financial year was ₹14,000 crore,' said an excise department official requesting anonymity. 'Since the implementation started at the fag end of the first quarter, we expect to generate ₹10,500 during the remainder of the financial year despite a further dip in sales likely in August, when the old stock with lower prices is completely exhausted from the market.' Another official from the department said they expect IMFL consumers to shift to Maharashtra Made Liquor (MML), a new category introduced by the state government to promote domestic manufacturers. 'The excise duty on MML has been kept significantly low to give them a level-playing field,' the official said. However, Sanjit Padhi , chief executive officer of the International Spirits and Wines Association of India (ISWAI) said the shift to MML would hit revenue collection and the government would fall short of its target for the year. 'We reiterate that the rise in prices needs to be reviewed at the earliest,' Padhi said. Vinod Giri, director general, Brewers Association of India, said sales of beer were likely to go up significantly later this month and in September as older stocks of IMFL with lower prices get exhausted. 'We had a mild summer and good monsoon this year so beer sales were hit significantly,' he said.

As Trade Tensions Escalate, China Files WTO Complaint Over Canada Steel Duties

China filed a complaint with the World Trade Organisation (WTO) over Canadian steel import restrictions on Friday, the commerce ministry said, escalating simmering trade tensions between Beijing and Ottawa. Economic and political relations between China and Canada have been testy in recent years, with trade ties deteriorating even as both countries are targeted by US President Donald Trump's tariff blitz. Last month, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced an additional 25 per cent tariff on steel imports that contain steel melted and poured in China. He said the move was needed to protect the domestic industry after the United States increased import duties on steel to 50 per cent, prompting fears that firms would divert exports and dump steel in Canada. China's commerce ministry said in a statement that it had filed a complaint against the Canadian measures on Friday, labelling them "discriminatory" and saying they "disregarded WTO rules". "Such actions are typical unilateral and protectionist measures that undermine China's legitimate rights and interests and disrupt the stability of global industrial and supply chains for steel," it added. The WTO complaint comes days after Beijing announced new temporary duties on Canadian imports of canola and preliminary levies on halogenated butyl rubber -- a material used for tyre linings and hoses -- as well as an anti-dumping probe into Canadian pea starch imports. Canada said on Tuesday it was "deeply disappointed" with the move to impose duties on canola. Beijing had already slapped a 100 per cent surcharge on various Canadian agricultural products in March, in what it said was a response to Ottawa's decision last year to place 100 per cent tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.
