- US President Donald Trump has expressed optimism about ending the Ukraine war following talks between his special envoy and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
- The G7 nations have endorsed the US-backed ceasefire proposal, but Russia has attached conditions, including territorial claims and concerns over monitoring compliance.
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused Russia of using delay tactics and manipulation to avoid committing to a ceasefire while continuing its military operations.
