Ukraine could soon receive NATO-like security guarantees as Zelensky visits Washington with top EU leaders. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff claims Russia has for the first time conceded to allowing America to provide “Article 5-style protections” to Ukraine—a breakthrough in negotiations. The proposed...

At least four killed as Russian air strikes on Ukraine continue right before Trump-Zelenskyy talks

A historic confrontation is unfolding in Washington as President Donald Trump meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, joined by key European leaders including Macron, Merz, Meloni, Starmer, von der Leyen, Stubb, and NATO’s Mark Rutte. This comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he backed a plan for Ukraine to cede Crimea and parts of Donbas, abandon NATO, and accept neutrality. Europe and Kyiv fiercely reject this “surrender deal,” warning it rewards Russian aggression and threatens NATO itself. Trump’s transactional “America First” diplomacy—focused on quick wins and cutting U.S. military spending—clashes directly with Europe’s push for long-term security and continued military aid. As Russia intensifies strikes, Europe views concessions as catastrophic. Tensions inside the White House are boiling: will this meeting end in compromise, or spark a full-scale rift between America and Europe that could reshape global order?

Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet Donald Trump in Washington on Monday, but this time he won’t face him alone. At Zelensky’s request, top European leaders—including Ursula von der Leyen, Keir Starmer, Emmanuel Macron, Giorgia Meloni, Friedrich Merz, and NATO’s Mark Rutte—will join to shield him from another Oval Office humiliation. February’s chaotic meeting, where Trump and JD Vance mocked Zelensky, left deep scars. Now, Europe’s united front aims to counter Trump’s confrontational style and prevent a repeat embarrassment for Ukraine.

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.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov downplayed Donald Trump’s prediction that there is a 25% chance the upcoming Alaska summit with President Vladimir Putin could fail. Speaking ahead of the high-stakes talks, Lavrov said Russia would not engage in forecasting outcomes, emphasizing that Moscow has “arguments and a clear, definite position” ready for the meeting.
He credited U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, Trump’s close associate, with laying much of the groundwork for the discussions and expressed hope that negotiations would continue into the next day. The Anchorage talks, already under global scrutiny, come at a time of tense U.S.-Russia relations and ongoing war in Ukraine. While Trump has framed the meeting as a potential breakthrough, Lavrov’s remarks signal confidence in Russia’s approach and suggest Moscow is prepared to stand firm. The world now watches to see if the dialogue will ease tensions or widen the divide.

Bishara Bahbah, a key figure in former President Trump’s Gaza negotiating team, has resigned, accusing the U.S. and Israel of sabotaging near-successful ceasefire talks with Hamas. Bahbah claims negotiators in Qatar were ordered home by U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff just as Hamas was close to accepting deal terms. He blames Prime Minister Netanyahu’s hardline Gaza takeover plan for collapsing peace efforts. A former “Arab Americans for Trump” leader, Bahbah vows to continue independent mediation as Israel advances toward full control of Gaza.
