— Sep 10, 2026
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he has spoken with U.S. President Donald Trump in recent days about Ukraine, Iran, and stalled trade talks, and reiterated Canada’s willingness to finance Kyiv’s fuel needs and bolster its air defense as a trade deal remains elusive. In Banff and Calgary, Carney and Zelenskyy stressed strong Canada-Ukraine ties, detailing Canada’s military support, sanctions on Russia, and collaborative defense efforts such as Project Freya to advance air-defense capabilities.

— Sep 11, 2026
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman urged President Trump in two calls to order air strikes against Yemen's Houthi forces as tensions over the Red Sea escalated; Trump declined and Washington said it would not pursue direct military action for now, instead focusing on Iran and protecting shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. has offered non-combat support and intelligence sharing, with CENTCOM chief Admiral Brad Cooper traveling to Riyadh for coordination as regional tensions mount.
