Zelensky appeared visibly caught off-guard when President Cyril Ramaphosa publicly declared that Ukraine was ready for an unconditional ceasefire.
The statementâdropped like a diplomatic bombshellâcame during joint remarks and stunned observers, raising questions about Zelensky's true stance on peace negotiations.
As Ramaphosa positioned Africa as a key player in ending the Russia-Ukraine war, Zelensky remained tight-lipped, sparking a media frenzy and speculation about behind-the-scenes tensions

US President Donald Trump made waves on April 27, claiming that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is ready to give up Crimea, a statement that contradicts Ukraineâs position on the Russian-occupied territory. This came after their first in-person meeting at the Vatican following a tense argument in the Oval Office in February. Trump also discussed China tariffs and the controversial death of Jeffrey Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre, making it a loaded press interaction that further fuels international tensions.

In a powerful statement at the UN, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative, Maria Zabolotskaya, condemned Western countries for their "double standards" in addressing the global refugee crisis. Highlighting the devastating impact of the Gaza conflict, she criticized the reluctance of Western nations to provide sufficient humanitarian aid to refugees, particularly those fleeing from war-torn regions like Syria, Afghanistan, and Sudan. Zabolotskaya also pointed out the hypocrisy in Western countries voicing concern over Ukrainian refugees while ignoring the plight of those seeking asylum in Russia. She called out the EU's failure to provide adequate support to refugees, especially those crossing the Mediterranean, and the deadly consequences of this inaction. With lives at stake and no accountability, the international community must confront the moral and legal crisis unfolding before our eyes.

European Union officials fear US President Donald Trump may abandon efforts to broker peace in Ukraine. Despite campaign promises to end the war quickly, Trump has seen no major breakthroughs in his second termâs first 100 days. EU insiders suggest Trump may be crafting an exit narrative, frustrated by slow talks and Russiaâs unwillingness to meet demands. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has warned the US may withdraw from the peace process. Meanwhile, Russia claims itâs ready for talks without preconditions but criticizes Ukraineâs lack of initiative.
