Iran war live: European, Middle East FMs in Istanbul for security talks
European and Middle East foreign ministers meet in Istanbul for talks on the Strait of Hormuz and regional crises.
What the coverage shows
Reuters is the only outlet that appears to cover the Kyiv story directly, with its headline and extract focusing on residents’ skepticism after Russia’s talks with Trump’s envoy and on fresh missile strikes. The Atlantic and Breaking Points both use Trump-gamble language, but only in relation to Iran, not Ukraine. So the grouping is mostly a contrast between Reuters’ Ukraine framing and the other two outlets’ separate focus on Trump’s Iran moves.
