President Donald Trump said his Ukraine peace proposal has been “fine-tuned” and that envoys will soon meet Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian officials. His plan, criticised for favouring Russia, remains under negotiation as Europe seeks stronger guarantees and fresh Russian attacks intensify pressure on talks.
After meeting Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, US President Donald Trump urged Ukraine and Russia to “stop where they are” and end the war, signaling a shift toward accepting existing battle lines following renewed contact with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
Following the Gaza ceasefire, President Donald Trump said his focus has turned to ending Russia’s war on Ukraine. He plans to host Zelenskyy and is weighing Tomahawk missile sales to Kyiv as leverage to push Moscow toward peace talks.
Russia has warned the UK against interfering in ongoing US-Russia efforts to settle the Ukrainian conflict. Putin and Trump are maintaining close contact, while Zelensky is open to bilateral or trilateral meetings, including $90 billion in US weapons support.
US President Donald Trump said Ukrainian President Zelensky could end the war with Russia “almost immediately” but warned Crimea and NATO membership are non-negotiable. European leaders will meet Zelensky at the White House to discuss potential security guarantees.
Russia launched its largest missile and drone attack on Kyiv since the war began, killing one and injuring 26. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy spoke with US President Trump about air defence aid and joint weapons production. Damage was widespread across the capital.
The attack, which killed one person and wounded several, came as a Ukrainian delegation was to meet with America's top diplomat in Saudi Arabia about ending the three-year war with Russia
