Tense Negotiations Emerge Over Proposed Ukraine Ceasefire

The U.S.-backed 30-day ceasefire proposal faces hurdles as Russia demands conditions and Ukraine denies claims of encircled troops.

  • Donald Trump has urged Vladimir Putin to spare the lives of Ukrainian soldiers, though Ukraine denies claims that its forces are encircled in the Koursk region.
  • The G7 has reaffirmed its support for Ukraine's territorial integrity and threatened additional sanctions if Russia does not agree to the proposed ceasefire.
  • Russia has made conditional demands for the ceasefire, including questions over arms deliveries and enforcement mechanisms along the front lines.
  • Ukrainian forces report regrouping into defensive positions after recent Russian territorial gains in the Koursk region, while continuing strikes on Russian infrastructure.
  • An independent UN commission has accused Russia of committing crimes against humanity, citing systematic targeting of civilians in occupied Ukrainian territories.
