Russia resists deadlines on Ukraine ceasefire as Trump seeks agreement
Russia says it has set no deadline for a Ukraine ceasefire as U.S. and Ukrainian officials hold talks on peace options. Russian forces continue drone and missile strikes during the discussions. Former U.S. President Donald Trump calls for a rapid negotiated deal to end large-scale fighting. Officials in Washington and Kyiv explore security and political conditions for any future agreement while Moscow signals it will not be rushed. International observers track ongoing attacks, humanitarian needs, and debates over military aid and long-term support for Ukraine.
