Putin Praises ‘Courageous’ Trump Who ‘Cheated Death Twice’; Says Trump Wants Peace in Russia-Ukraine
Russian President Vladimir Putin has lauded Donald Trump as a “courageous” leader who “cheated death twice,” referring to the former U.S. president’s survival of past assassination attempts and recent threats.
Speaking at a televised Kremlin event, Putin claimed Trump is the only American politician who genuinely seeks peace between Russia and Ukraine.
Muscovites are reacting with a mix of hope, skepticism, and outrage as face-to-face talks between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky are reportedly back on the table. While some see it as a crucial step toward a ceasefire and a potential win-win outcome, others question Zelensky’s legitimacy and doubt any progress can be made. From Red Square to the Kremlin embankment, opinions reveal a city divided over whether these talks could finally end the war—or simply become another stalemate.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt fiercely pushed back at a reporter who accused President Trump of disrespecting Europe during his latest call with Vladimir Putin. The heated exchange turned into a tense briefing-room showdown, highlighting deep divisions over Trump’s approach to Moscow and European allies.

Just days after Donald Trump’s talks with Vladimir Putin, the fragile hope of a Trump–Putin–Zelensky trilateral summit is in jeopardy. Russia has launched fresh strikes on Ukraine, leaving at least 21 people dead and casting doubt on the prospects of meaningful negotiations. As questions mount over whether Moscow is testing Trump’s resolve or sabotaging peace efforts altogether, the bombing underscores the volatility of the conflict

Zelensky has challenged Vladimir Putin to face-to-face talks — floating the possibility of a land-for-peace deal. The bold move signals Kyiv’s readiness to consider territorial compromises if it ends the war, but also raises alarms about sovereignty, security, and long-term stability. With Russia’s intentions unclear and global powers watching closely, the world now waits to see if Putin will accept Zelensky’s dare

Donald Trump has signaled a pro-Putin stance — insisting that Ukraine must compromise to end the war. According to Trump, Kyiv should drop its NATO ambitions and accept Russia’s hold over Crimea as part of a settlement. The comments have sparked outrage among Ukraine’s supporters while emboldening Moscow, raising fears that Trump’s approach could reshape the balance of the war

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed that Vladimir Putin told Donald Trump during a recent call he would meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the coming weeks. Responding to reporters, Leavitt stressed that Trump personally heard the commitment from Putin and shared it transparently with the media. While Kremlin statements appeared less firm, the White House insists both Russia and Ukraine are working with the Trump administration to make the bilateral meeting happen—signaling a potential new chapter in the tense Russia-Ukraine conflict.

In a fiery press briefing, Leavitt ruled out "American boots on the ground" in Ukraine, firmly shutting down the possibility of direct U.S. troop deployment. But in a surprise twist, she hinted that Trump is considering aerial support — raising the prospect of U.S. jets flying near or over Russian-controlled territory.

White House Press Secretary blasted mainstream media for spreading “fake news” about U.S. negotiations with Russia and Ukraine. She accused left-leaning outlets of deliberately undermining President Trump’s efforts, arguing that many in the press have been “rooting against the President of the United States and the pursuit of peace.” The sharp rebuke underscores growing tensions between the administration and media over foreign policy narratives. As talks remain sensitive, the administration insists its focus is on achieving peace while dismissing what it calls politically motivated reporting.

After Hamas accepted new ceasefire terms to release half of the hostages, Israel has shifted conditions, demanding the release of all 50 remaining captives. The move risks derailing a Qatar- and Egypt-brokered truce. Netanyahu insists war will only end if Hamas disarms, Gaza is demilitarized, and Israeli security control is secured. With over 62,000 killed and Gaza on the brink of famine, Trump’s call for the “full destruction of Hamas” fuels fears of a trilateral conflict involving the U.S., Israel, and Hamas.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky left Downing Street after a high-profile meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, just hours before Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are set to meet in Alaska for critical talks on ending the Ukraine war. The meeting between Starmer and Zelensky was a public show of unity, with both leaders refusing to comment on whether Trump could deliver a fair ceasefire.
The Kremlin confirmed the Alaska summit will feature a one-on-one session followed by delegation talks, with a joint press conference to follow. Meanwhile, tensions escalate on the ground: Russia claims Ukraine launched dozens of drones at Volgograd and Belgorod overnight, while Ukraine reports deadly Russian strikes on Kharkiv. Former MI6 chief Alex Younger warns there is no sign Putin has softened his aims. The world’s attention now turns to Alaska, where the outcome could reshape the future of Europe’s bloodiest conflict in decades.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has reportedly not been invited to the upcoming Trump–Putin peace summit in Alaska on August 15, raising concerns of a diplomatic sidelining. White House sources say the meeting will focus on U.S.–Russia dialogue at Moscow’s request. While Trump has floated territorial swaps as a path to peace, Zelensky rejects the idea, citing constitutional limits. The Kremlin insists talks must address Crimea and four regions annexed in 2022, while Ukraine refuses any concessions, leaving negotiations at an impasse.

In a stunning shift, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signaled readiness for peace talks with Russia, saying “it’s time to end the war.” His call for a “dignified peace” comes amid a confirmed Trump-Putin summit soon and ongoing Russian strikes. Zelensky proposed bilateral or trilateral summits and urged Moscow to match Ukraine’s courage. The Kremlin, however, questions Zelensky’s legitimacy, citing expired terms and lack of elections. With Putin-Trump talks expected soon, the path to peace now faces high-stakes political hurdles.

Putin has lashed out at U.S. President Donald Trump over his threat to impose higher tariffs on India if it continues buying Russian oil. The Kremlin condemned the move as “illegal” and an attack on national sovereignty, warning Washington against pressuring its allies. Putin emphasized that India has the right to choose its trade partners, while New Delhi dismissed Trump’s warnings as “unjustified” and accused the West of hypocrisy for continuing its own trade with Russia.
