Trump says Zelenskyy can end Russia war 'almost immediately' before hosting seven European leaders
Monday, 18 August 2025 () European leaders including Macron, Starmer and von der Leyen will meet with Trump and Zelenskyy in Washington following Trump's summit with Putin.
After the failed Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump has confirmed a crucial White House meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday. Trump revealed he briefed Zelensky by phone and also consulted European leaders and NATO. While calling a mere ceasefire...
Russian strikes have killed 8 people and injured 35 across Ukraine just as President Zelensky arrived in Washington, D.C., for a high-stakes meeting with President Trump. Moscow continues to reject calls for an unconditional ceasefire, intensifying its use of drones and missiles. Cities near the Russian border, as well as the Sumy region, were hit, leaving civilians trapped under rubble and hospitals overwhelmed. The attacks come as Zelensky and European allies push for peace, while Russia demands territorial concessions, raising tensions ahead of the crucial summit.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has arrived in Washington, D.C., ahead of his crucial meeting with President Donald Trump. Speaking to the public and on social media, Zelensky emphasized the need for a lasting peace in Ukraine while warning against Russia’s past aggression, including the 2014 seizure of Ukrainian territory that he called a “springboard” for further invasions. With the high-stakes summit looming, Zelensky remains firm on defending Ukrainian land and sovereignty, even as discussions focus on ways to end the ongoing war.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi arrives in New Delhi for a crucial two-day visit ahead of PM Narendra Modi’s planned trip to China for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit. Wang Yi will meet PM Modi, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, and NSA Ajit Doval, with border tensions, Galwan clashes, trade disputes, and stalled flights high on the agenda.

US President Donald Trump has delivered a blunt message to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ahead of their White House meeting. Trump declared that Ukraine must abandon its NATO ambitions and accept the loss of Crimea if it truly wants peace with Russia. The ultimatum comes just days after Trump’s Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin, which he admitted brought “little progress” toward ending the war. With Zelensky under mounting pressure and European allies resisting Trump’s terms, Washington is bracing for a high-stakes clash that could reshape the future of the Ukraine war.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy could "end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to", Donald Trump has said - ahead of crucial White House talks on the future.. Sky News
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, hesitant after his disastrous last meeting with Trump, will be joined by the new EU Chief for a tense White House visit. Critics claim Zelensky is “too scared” to face Trump alone, while Europe rallies behind Kyiv’s “no land” stance. British PM Keir Starmer, Macron, and Merz offered support, as Trump insists only a direct peace deal can end the war. In a dramatic twist, Melania Trump even appealed to Putin in a letter urging him to think of suffering children.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to announce a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood at the September UN General Assembly, outlining borders and constitutional principles until a full constitution is passed. France, the UK, and other nations signal possible recognition, with President Macron pledging support. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has condemned the plan, urging Netanyahu to dismantle the PA. The move could mark a turning point in Palestine’s international recognition strategy, but risks sparking intense political backlash.

Hours before President Zelensky’s White House visit, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio made waves by suggesting Ukraine and Russia must consider concessions for a peace deal. His remarks come after reports that Putin demanded control of Donbas in exchange for ending the war. Zelensky, backed by Europe, has firmly rejected any territorial compromise, repeating “No land for invaders.” While Rubio urged diplomacy, he warned peace may remain elusive, and without an agreement, the war—already entering its fourth year—could bring more deaths and consequences for Russia.
