Ukrainian President Zelensky firmly rejected Putin's invitation to Moscow for peace talks, calling Russia's capital a "terrorist's capital." Speaking to ABC News at a missile-damaged American manufacturing plant, Zelensky countered that Putin should come to Kyiv instead. Putin had earlier said he was "never against" meeting Zelensky and invited him to Moscow. Zelensky dismissed this as a stalling tactic, saying Putin is "playing games with the United States" and trying to postpone meetings. The exchange comes as Trump seeks to mediate a settlement, proposing trilateral summits. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Sybiha noted several countries including Austria, Switzerland, and Turkey are ready to host peace talks, while German Chancellor Merz called a Putin-Zelensky meeting unlikely.
