Intense Negotiations Underway for Ukraine Ceasefire as US Team Heads to Moscow
A US delegation is currently in Moscow to engage in critical talks regarding a proposed ceasefire in Ukraine, while Russian President Vladimir Putin makes a visit to Kursk. Sources indicate Russia has outlined a hard-line negotiating stance and is carefully studying the US ceasefire proposal, which has been agreed upon by Ukraine. Despite pressures, Putin appears likely to seek specific conditions before agreeing to any truce. Meanwhile, Trump has warned that blocking the ceasefire could be disastrous for Russia and has urged Putin to back a peace deal to end the ongoing conflict. As both sides cautiously navigate this intricate situation, the world watches closely to see if a lasting peace can be achieved.
