Ukrainian President Zelensky announced Ukraine is joining EU sanctions against Iran, calling it a brutal regime. He also signed a decree to exit the Ottawa Convention, citing Russia’s use of anti-personnel mines, stressing Ukraine’s need for such tools in defence

According to Putin, the peace talks in Istanbul make sense and have a positive outcome, Xinhua news agency reported.

"We do not see any NATO rearmament as a threat to the Russian Federation, because we are self-sufficient in terms of ensuring our own security," Putin said.

The intensity of the Russian attacks on Ukraine over the past weeks has further dampened hopes that the warring sides could reach a peace deal anytime soon — especially after Kyiv recently embarrassed the Kremlin with a surprising drone attack on military airfields deep inside Russia

Zelenskyy said that he still hopes for a ceasefire with Russia starting Monday, and that he will “be waiting for Putin” in Turkiye “personally” after US President Donald Trump insisted Ukraine accept Russia's latest offer — to hold direct talks in Turkiye on Thursday

The ceasefire will last from 6 pm Moscow time (1500 GMT) on Saturday to midnight (2100 GMT) following Easter Sunday

Witkoff, who has met twice with Putin in recent weeks as Trump works to end the war in Ukraine, expressed confidence that talks in Saudi Arabia this week between American, Russia and Ukrainian officials would yield positive results, including on a limited ceasefire in the Black Sea, CNN reported.

Discussions on peacekeeping efforts in Ukraine remain premature and should only take place after a formal peace agreement has been reached: Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko

Trump wrote on Truth Social, his social media platform, that he made this appeal on a phone call with Putin on Thursday, which he described as “good and productive”.

Washington has agreed to "immediately lift the pause on intelligence sharing and resume security assistance to Ukraine"

Asked whether he was considering cutting off military aid to Ukraine, Trump responded: "It doesn't matter what I'm considering. I'm just telling you: You saw what I saw today. That was not a man that wanted to make peace, and I'm only interested if he wants to end the bloodshed."

Trump had asked Zelensky in a July 2019 phone call to investigate former President Joe Biden, who was the Democratic Party front-runner against him in the 2020 election, and his son Hunter for possible corruption. He had withheld about $400 million in aid to Ukraine in the days before the call, although he released it later

Addressing a joint news conference with him, France’s Emmanuel Macron stressed the importance of security guarantees in any negotiated agreement to end the war.

Before his inauguration on Monday, Trump had vowed to end the Ukraine war before even taking office, raising expectations he would leverage aid to force Kyiv to make concessions to Moscow.
