U.S. President Donald Trump said there's a "very good prospect" of an upcoming summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss ending the Ukraine war. After "productive" talks between his envoy Steve Witkoff and Putin in Moscow, Trump hinted at a three-way meeting possibly as early as next week. The Kremlin confirmed “constructive” exchanges but no firm details. Trump warned Russia of severe sanctions if no ceasefire is agreed by Friday. Meanwhile, Ukraine reported more deadly Russian attacks and received $200 million in U.S. military aid. Zelensky remains cautious, urging global pressure on Moscow. (PC: BBC)
