Overview

  • President Volodímir Zelenski announced a Ukraine–U.S. delegation meeting this week to draft baseline security guarantees and prepare for potential contacts with Russia.
  • Serguéi Lavrov said no Putin–Zelenski meeting is scheduled and stressed the agenda for any summit is not ready, tempering expectations for an immediate encounter.
  • President Donald Trump reiterated support for a negotiated, durable peace in a letter Zelenski published on X, and he said he has spoken again with Vladimir Putin.
  • U.S. Vice President J. D. Vance said additional sanctions on Russia remain possible and claimed Moscow has made significant concessions in talks with Trump.
  • Fighting and strikes continued with a 146-for-146 prisoner exchange, Ukrainian drone activity including damage to a transformer near the Kursk nuclear plant and claims of a hit at Ust-Lugá, and reported Ukrainian gains in several Donetsk villages.
