In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

• Russia is playing hardball in negotiations with the U.S. over ending the war in Ukraine, demanding the West abandon Ukraine’s NATO ambitions and rejecting NATO peacekeepers.

• Iran is vowing another direct attack on Israel while taunting the U.S. over its nuclear program—what’s behind Tehran’s latest threats?

• Hamas says it will return the bodies of four hostages, including the youngest victims of October 7th, but what does this move signal?

• And in today’s Back of the Brief: North Korea is making bold new promises to expand its nuclear arsenal, dismissing U.S. efforts to curb its ambitions.
