In this news round-up of the week for Friday 26th June, 2026. President Trump is back on the tariff trail, as he announces that all countries that dare to implement digital services taxes will be hit by 100% tariffs. Europe has been hit by massive heat waves many degrees above what it would normally experience at this time of year. So of course that means everyone's arguing. Ukraine is hitting Russia hard, and in particular has provoked a state of emergency in Russian-occupied Crimea as it has targeted it with massive drone strikes. And one duty being claimed by President Trump promises to put the whole world on tenterhooks worrying about the most awkward moment that might be coming their way.
