🕌 MBS Urges Trump To Choose Dialogue Over War With Iran

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman urged U.S. President Donald Trump to prioritize dialogue over military action in the standoff with Iran, as Trump halted planned strikes after earlier threatening Tehran with unprecedented force.

The call reflects mounting concern among Gulf states over a potential regional conflict. MBS, whose kingdom sits between key U.S. and Iranian spheres of influence, pressed for a diplomatic path as Washington and Tehran remain in a tense standoff over Iran's nuclear program.

The move signals that key U.S. allies in the Middle East are pushing for negotiation over escalation, even as Trump has kept military options openly on the table.

🪖 Navy Awards $76.6B for 14 New Attack and Missile Submarines

The U.S. Navy has awarded $76.6 billion for the construction of 14 submarines — nine Virginia-class Block VI attack submarines (~$42B) and five Columbia-class ballistic missile submarines (~$30B) — along with funding for shipyard infrastructure, workforce support, and supply chains.

Contracts were awarded to General Dynamics Electric Boat and Huntington Ingalls Industries. Vice Adm. Robert Gaucher said the deal ensures "continuous production of both the Columbia and Virginia classes" and will "deliver the world's most lethal, survivable and resilient combat platform" while providing "long-term stability to our shipbuilding industrial base."

The awards come as Navy submarine programs face persistent delays, cost overruns, and workforce shortages. Shipbuilders have long urged the Navy to provide more predictable orders to help hire and retain workers. The Navy is also exploring shipbuilding cooperation with South Korea and Japan, and automation to ease labor constraints.
