Chronology
Off Leash update 12 May IRAN •Pres. Trump raised concerns about renewed hostilities with Iran when he said the current, temporary ceasefire is on "massive life support" with a "1 percent chance" of survival and called Iran's latest counterproposal "garbage." •Iranian state media reported that the counterproposal Trump rejected called for the U.S. to pay war reparations, end sanctions on Iran, and recognize Iran's sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. It also reportedly postponed nuclear negotiations for "when the time is right." UKRAINE •Ukraine's anti-corruption authorities formally notified Pres. Zelensky's former chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, that he's a suspect in their widening investigation into corruption in the senior ranks of Zelensky's government. •Yermak resigned in November after investigators began looking into allegations of his involvement in a scheme to embezzle $100 million from the state nuclear company. •Investigators now allege that Yermak and two other disgraced former officials sought to use 460 million hryvnia ($10.5 million) of their tainted proceeds to build themselves neighboring luxury homes. •Zelensky has sought to distance himself from the disgraced officials and the investigation, and he won't be pleased to see the inquiry - dubbed Operation Midas - back in the headlines. •Separately, the European Union slapped sanctions on 16 more officials and seven more organizations accused of facilitating Russia's abduction of Ukrainian children. •Ukrainian authorities estimate that Russia has deported 20,500 Ukrainian children since the war began in 2022; only around 2,000 have been returned. UK •British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is stubbornly defying intensifying calls - including dozens from within his own Labour party - to step down. •A minister and several aides have already quit Starmer's government in protest at his insistence on staying on until a formal challenger emerges. That may not take long: other Labour lawmakers are organizing a challenge to unseat him. SOUTH AFRICA •South Africa's Parliament said it would comply with a recent Constitutional Court decision and establish an impeachment committee to re-investigate old misconduct allegations against President Cyril Ramaphosa. •The allegations center on a 2020 scandal in which thieves discovered $580,000 (and perhaps up to $4 million) in foreign cash hidden in a sofa at Ramaphosa's Phala Phala game farm, raising uncomfortable questions about how a lifetime public servant could have amassed such wealth and why he would keep it in cash instead of depositing it at a bank. •Ramaphosa's African National Congress colleagues in Parliament brushed the scandal under the rug in 2022 with a vote blocking the impeachment process. The Constitutional Court has now ruled that vote invalid, thus reviving the inquiry. •Like Starmer in the UK, Ramaphosa is defiantly refusing to resign. ISRAEL •The European Union slapped new sanctions on three Israeli settlers and four pro-settlement organizations accused of perpetrating violence against Palestinians in the West Bank, as well as several senior Hamas figures. •Spokesmen for both the Israeli government and Hamas seemed equally upset about the actual sanctions as they were about the other side facing similar - and not much harsher - penalties.
