Trump Threatens Bridge, Lai Jailed, War Deadline Set

Here's a news article synthesizing the provided source material:

Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is poised to pursue a conservative agenda following her ruling Liberal Democratic Party's (LDP) landslide victory in the lower house elections on February 8, 2026, according to NPR. Meanwhile, in international news, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that the U.S. has set a June deadline for the war with Russia to end. Also, Hong Kong media tycoon Jimmy Lai was sentenced to 20 years in prison, and former President Donald Trump is threatening to block the opening of a new bridge between Detroit and Canada.

In Japan, Prime Minister Takaichi, also the president of the LDP, celebrated the party's supermajority win. She was seen at LDP headquarters putting pins on a map, marking the names of the winning candidates.

Across the globe, President Zelenskyy's comments indicated that the U.S. is pushing for a resolution to the conflict with Russia by June. This comes as Washington and Moscow are reportedly discussing $12 trillion in economic deals.

In Hong Kong, a court sentenced 78-year-old activist and publisher Jimmy Lai to two decades in prison after finding him guilty of violating a national security law. According to NPR, Lai was found guilty late last year.

In the United States, former President Donald Trump is threatening to obstruct the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge, a Canadian-built structure connecting Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. Trump is demanding that Canada cede at least half-ownership of the bridge and agree to other unspecified terms. "We will start negotiations, IMMEDIATELY," he stated, according to the Associated Press. "With all that we have given them, we should own, perhaps, at least one half of this asset."

In other news, a group of Buddhist monks is scheduled to arrive in Washington, D.C., on foot on Tuesday, completing a "Walk for Peace" that began in Texas. The monks, known for their saffron robes and rescue dog Aloka, have gained a following on social media.
