  "account": "German coalition parties CDU/CSU and SPD are still divided over the implementation of a pension reform, with differing views on timing and potential changes. CDU/CSU leader Thorsten Frei called for a draft law from the labour ministry to discuss details, while SPD leader Matthias Miersch wanted more time for the new labour minister Alexander Schweitzer to prepare.\n\nUS Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended President Donald Trump's decision to suspend new sanctions against Russia, citing the need for a 60-day analysis of the potential impact on the global economy.\n\nUkrainian President Volodymyr Selenskyj expressed concern over a possible US rapprochement with Russia, warning that if the US were to side with Russia, Ukraine would not survive. He also complained about recent restrictions on Ukraine's use of US satellite networks and intelligence sharing.",
