Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg ‘asked to leave' Oval Office meeting? Know what was Trump discussing with officials

Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg was reportedly kicked out of an Oval Office meeting after he 'walked in unexpectedly' while President Trump met with high-ranking military leaders. Sources familiar with the recent meeting told NBC News that military leaders were shocked when Zuckerberg walked into the Oval Office during a discussion on the Air Force's next-generation fighter jet platform. Dubbed 'MAGA Mark' by some, Zuckerberg allegedly lingered briefly before being told to wait outside. The exact date of the reported incident was not divulged. Since Mark Zuckerberg didn't have security clearance, officials asked the social media magnate to wait outside, two people familiar with the matter told NBC. Officials were reportedly concerned about Zuckerberg's presence, citing that he didn't have the security clearance to be a part of the conversation. ALSO READ: 25 million Americans at risk?

Zuckerberg, who attended President's inauguration on January 20, was then reportedly asked to leave the office and forced to wait outside. Sources told the outlet that officials in the meeting were 'mystified and a bit unnerved' with the lack of privacy in the Oval Office. One official even referred to the meeting as 'bizarro world.' Live Events But a Trump official has denied media reports that Mark Zuckerberg was kicked out of the Oval Office after crashing a meeting about the futuristic F-47 stealth fighter jet. A senior White House official told The New York Post that the report had 'mischaracterized' the situation. 'He was not asked to leave,' the official said. 'He popped in to say hello at the president's request, and then left to wait for his meeting with POTUS to begin, which was scheduled to occur after the meeting with the pilots.' An official statement from Meta is awaited on the matter. ALSO READ: Microsoft layoffs: Tech giant's sales head Judson Althoff asked to go on two-month leave. Here's why Zuckerberg has had a complicated history with politics. He initially voiced pro-immigration policies and supported liberal politicians before pivoting towards the MAGA agenda amid Trump's re-election campaign. In January, he also attended Trump's inauguration ceremony and was seen cozying up to fellow billionaires Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. Zuckerberg has faced widespread scrutiny in recent months over his attempts to cozy up with his onetime foe Trump following his win in the 2024 presidential election. Life inside Trump's Oval Office The incident offers a glimpse into the hectic and open-door environment of the Trump administration's headquarters. President Trump reportedly calls the Oval Office "Grand Central Terminal" due to the frequent flow of advisers, cabinet members, and influential figures passing through.

UFC CEO Dana White, another Trump ally and Meta board member, also exemplifies this blending of politics and corporate power.

US trade deal remains unclear: South Korean prez as Trump's deadline looms

Trump's tariff hikes and other America First policies are major challenges for Lee's month-old government, as are North Korea's advancing nuclear programme and domestic economic woes AP Seoul South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said that it remained unclear whether Seoul and Washington could conclude their tariff negotiations by the deadline set by President Donald Trump for next week, noting Thursday that both nations were still working to clarify their positions and identify areas of agreement. Speaking at his first news conference since taking office last month, Lee also reiterated his intentions to improve badly frayed ties with North Korea, though he acknowledged that mutual distrust between the Koreas is too deep to heal anytime soon. Trump's tariff hikes and other America First policies are major challenges for Lee's month-old government, as are North Korea's advancing nuclear programme and domestic economic woes. Lee, a liberal, came to power after winning a snap presidential election caused by the ouster of conservative President Yoon Suk Yeol over his ill-fated imposition of martial law in December. Lee calls tariff talks with US clearly not easy Lee said the tariff negotiations with the US have been clearly not easy and stressed that the countries must reach mutually beneficial outcomes. It's difficult to say with certainty whether we will be able to reach a conclusion by July 8. We are now doing our best, Lee said. What we need is a truly reciprocal outcome that benefits both sides and works for everyone, but so far, both sides are still trying to define exactly what they want. Trump's 90-day pause in global reciprocal tariffs is set to expire on July 9, potentially exposing South Korean products to 25 per cent tax rates. Washington has separately been seeking higher duties on specific products such as automobiles and semiconductors, which are key exports for South Korea's trade-dependent economy. There are growing concerns in Seoul that Trump may also demand a broader deal requiring South Korea to pay significantly more for the 28,000 US troops stationed in the country to deter North Korean threats. Lee has consistently urged patience on tariffs, arguing that rushing to secure an early deal would not serve the national interest. His trade minister, Yeo Han-koo, was reportedly arranging a visit to Washington for possible meetings with US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Lee pushes to revive long-stalled talks with North Korea On North Korea, Lee said he would seek to restore long-dormant talks with Pyongyang, whose expanding military cooperation with Russia pose major security concerns to their neighbours. I think we should improve relations with North Korea based on a reliable coordination and consultation between South Korea and the US, Lee said. But I expect that won't be easy as mutual antagonism and distrust are too serious. Lee previously faced criticism that he was tilting toward North Korea and China and away from the US and Japan. But during his campaign, Lee promised to pursue pragmatic diplomacy, saying he would bolster the alliance with the US while also seeking to repair ties with North Korea, China and Russia. Some critics say it's too difficult to satisfy all parties. Lee added that he had proposed resuming more frequent summits with Japan. Lee's government has made proactive efforts to build trust with North Korea, halting frontline anti-Pyongyang propaganda broadcasts and taking steps to ban activists from flying balloons carrying propaganda leaflets across the border. Trump has also expressed intent to resume diplomacy with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Lee has said he would support Trump's push. North Korea hasn't publicly responded to the conciliatory gestures by Trump and Lee. But officials said North Korean propaganda broadcasts are no longer being heard in South Korean border towns. North Korea has refused talks with the US and South Korea since earlier Trump-Kim nuclear talks collapsed in 2019. North Korea is now working to expand relations with Russia, supplying troops and weapons to support its war against Ukraine in return for economic and military assistance.

Pakistan court junks plea for case against Trump over US strikes on Iran

A local court in Pakistan's Karachi on Wednesday dismissed a bizarre petition seeking registration of a criminal case against US President Donald Trump over recent airstrikes carried out by the United States on Iranian nuclear sites. The court in the port city of Pakistan rejected the petition and ruled that the matter fell outside its petitioner, Advocate Jamshed Ali Khowaja, representing members of the International Lawyers Forum, claimed that the airstrikes caused psychological distress among Muslims, including Pakistani nationals. advertisementWhile rejecting the petition, which was filed on June 24, the court cited international law and the principle of functional immunity. The judge said such cases require the presence or extradition of the accused, which is not possible in this context. While calling the application 'devoid of merits' the court dismissed it at the outset.- Ends IN THIS STORY#Pakistan
