Trump stated he was “disappointed” that Zelensky had not yet reviewed the full proposal, while suggesting Russia may be more comfortable with the plan than Ukraine.
🇷🇺 Moscow Welcomes “Strategic Shift” in Washington
The Kremlin praised the new US National Security Strategy, which no longer labels Russia as a threat.
Instead, it positions the US as a key mediator in restoring stability between Europe and Moscow.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov described the changes as:
“Largely consistent with our vision… a strong basis for constructive cooperation.”
European officials worry this shift could influence the peace talks at a decisive moment.
🤝 Europe “Taking Stock” of Negotiations
Zelensky is expected to meet:
- 🇫🇷 French President Emmanuel Macron
- 🇬🇧 UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer
- 🇩🇪 German Chancellor Friedrich Merz
Their goal: assess the American-led negotiation process and ensure Ukraine’s security needs remain central.
Ukrainian officials said negotiations ended without major breakthroughs.
Key disputes remain over:
- Territorial questions
- Long-term security guarantees
Ukraine insists it cannot surrender more land and demands reliable protection from future attacks.
⚔️ Russia Escalates Attacks During Talks
As diplomacy continues, Russia launched one of its largest drone and missile barrages in months, killing at least seven people.
Recent attacks targeted:
- Power plants
- Key infrastructure
- Civilian population centers
Many regions, including Kyiv and Odesa, faced widespread blackouts lasting up to 12 hours.
Ukraine responded by striking an oil refinery in Russia’s Ryazan region.
✈️ Drone Intrusions Raise New Fears in Europe
Investigations in France and Ireland are underway after mysterious drones appeared near military and nuclear facilities.
European leaders suspect Moscow may be testing defenses as part of hybrid warfare efforts.

As power shifts among global allies, Europe faces a tense question:
- Can Ukraine secure a fair peace deal while the US–Russia relationship evolves?
