US-Ukraine Miami Talks Seen as Productive

US and Ukrainian officials have described recent talks in Miami as constructive, even though they failed to deliver a significant breakthrough toward ending the war in Ukraine. Donald Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, and Ukraine’s lead negotiator, Rustem Umerov, issued a joint statement after three days of meetings involving European partners. They said discussions were focused on coordinating positions around a proposed 20-point plan, security guarantees for Ukraine, and a longer-term framework for economic recovery and prosperity. At the same time, separate discussions were held in Miami between US officials and Russia’s envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, as Washington continues parallel engagement with both sides. In their statement, Witkoff and Umerov said their shared goal was to halt the fighting, provide reliable security guarantees, and lay the groundwork for Ukraine’s stability and long-term rebuilding. The Miami meetings are part of intensified diplomatic […]

Iran insists missile programme is defensive

Iran has declared that its missile programme is strictly defensive and will not be discussed in any negotiations with foreign governments. Foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said the country’s missiles were built to protect Iran’s territory and sovereignty, not to threaten others.​ Baghaei dismissed calls from Western countries to place limits on Iran’s missile activities, insisting that the issue lies entirely within Iran’s national security domain. He argued that critics use the missile programme as a political tool to pressure Tehran while ignoring the large volumes of weapons supplied to Israel and other regional allies.​ The spokesman said Iran’s missile capabilities are designed to deter attacks and form a key part of the country’s overall defence strategy. He stressed that these defensive assets are “by no means subject to negotiation” and that Iran will decide for itself how to maintain […]

US says Putin still aims to seize all Ukraine

US intelligence agencies assess that Russian President Vladimir Putin has not scaled back his military ambitions in Ukraine and still wants to bring the entire country under Russian control. Six sources familiar with recent assessments said the findings also warn that Putin ultimately aims to reassert influence over parts of Europe that once belonged to the Soviet Union.​ The reports indicate that Russia’s goals remain unchanged even as US, Ukrainian and European negotiators discuss possible frameworks to end the nearly four year war. Current diplomatic proposals under review would leave Russia with far less territory than it now occupies, but there is no sign from US intelligence that Putin is ready to accept such limits.​ Russia currently controls about 20 percent of Ukraine, including the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, parts of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson, and Crimea, which Moscow claims to […]

Putin praises Ukraine gains and warns of further military action

Russian President Vladimir Putin has hailed what he called significant gains by Russian forces in Ukraine, using his annual press conference in Moscow to warn that Moscow is prepared to push further if peace efforts fail. The marathon question and answer event, a hallmark of his nearly 25 years in power, was dominated by the war and Russia’s confrontation with the West.​ Putin claimed that Russian troops now hold the strategic initiative along most of the front line. He said his forces have created, and intend to expand, a “security buffer zone” near Russia’s border to prevent Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory.​ The Russian leader repeated that the Kremlin’s goals in Ukraine remain unchanged. He insisted that the objectives of what Moscow still calls its “special military operation” will be fully achieved, either through negotiations or by force.​ Putin said […]

Ukraine boosts secret missile production amid war

Ukraine has stepped up the secret production of its own long-range weapons as it works to reduce reliance on foreign military support and strengthen its war effort against Russia. At an undisclosed site, reached only after strict security measures including blindfolds and phone restrictions, Ukrainian engineers are assembling the Flamingo cruise missile. The factory’s location and layout are carefully concealed, and workers’ identities are protected to limit the risk of Russian strikes. Two other production sites linked to the same manufacturer have already been hit. The missile is produced by Fire Point, a Ukrainian company that did not exist before Russia’s full-scale invasion. Today, it has become a key player in the country’s rapidly expanding defence industry. According to President Volodymyr Zelensky, more than half of the weapons now used on the front line are made domestically, including almost all […]

Zelensky meets Pope, refines response to new US peace plan

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has met Pope Leo XIV in Italy as he prepares an updated response to a revised United States plan to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The meeting took place at the Pope’s country residence in Castel Gandolfo near Rome, during a wider European tour focused on talks with allies about war and peace efforts.​ Zelensky said Washington had cut its original 28-point proposal to 20 points after intensive talks with Ukrainian officials over the weekend. He explained that Ukrainian and European negotiators will now work through those 20 points and that Kyiv will send its formal, revised position to the United States soon.​ According to Zelensky, the main obstacles in the US plan involve possible territorial concessions and the level of long-term security guarantees for Ukraine. He stressed that Ukraine has no legal or moral right […]

Zelenskiy European leaders meet in London on Ukraine peace push

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and several European leaders are meeting in London as part of a renewed diplomatic push to end the war with Russia. The talks come amid intensified efforts by the United States and its allies to explore a possible path to peace while maintaining pressure on Moscow.​ The London gathering includes top officials from key European Union states and NATO members who remain central to Ukraine’s military and financial support. Participants are expected to discuss security guarantees for Kyiv, long term defence commitments and conditions under which future peace talks with Russia could take place.​ U.S. envoys have recently stepped up contacts with European partners and countries in the Global South to gauge support for a potential framework to end the conflict. Western officials insist that any settlement must respect Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, while Russia […]

EU seals deal to end Russian gas imports by autumn 2027

The European Union has reached a political deal to ban all imports of Russian natural gas by autumn 2027 as part of efforts to cut off a major source of funding for Moscow’s war in Ukraine.​ The agreement, struck between EU member states and the European Parliament, sets a binding timeline to phase out both pipeline gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Russia after years of dependence on its supplies.​ Under the deal, long-term LNG contracts with Russian suppliers will be banned from January 1, 2027, while new long-term pipeline gas contracts will be prohibited from September 30, 2027, at the latest by November 1, 2027, depending on storage levels.​ Short-term contracts will be phased out earlier, with LNG contracts ending from April 25, 2026, and short-term pipeline gas deals stopping from June 17, 2026.​ EU Energy Commissioner Dan […]

Kremlin open to multiple Ukraine talks with US

The Kremlin has said Russia is ready to hold as many rounds of talks with the United States as necessary on the war in Ukraine following recent high-level contacts between the two countries.​ Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that no single meeting could solve all issues, but stressed that Moscow was prepared to continue discussions if Washington showed “political will” to seek a settlement.​ Peskov repeated Russia’s position that any negotiations must take account of what it calls “new realities on the ground”, a reference to Ukrainian territories claimed and occupied by Russian forces.​ He also argued that the involvement of the US and other Western states in supplying weapons to Kyiv was prolonging the conflict, while insisting that Moscow remained open to dialogue on security guarantees and broader stability in Europe.​ The comments come amid renewed diplomatic activity […]

NATO allies plan big new US arms buys for Ukraine

NATO allies have pledged to make major new purchases of United States-made weapons and equipment to strengthen Ukraine’s defences as the war with Russia continues.​ Defence ministers and senior officials from several member states signalled plans to sign fresh contracts for air defence systems, artillery, drones, and ammunition, saying Ukraine still urgently needs long-term military support.​ The new commitments are expected to run into billions of dollars and will focus on replenishing Ukraine’s stocks while also rebuilding allied arsenals that have been depleted by previous transfers to Kyiv.​ Officials said the purchases would be arranged through joint procurement schemes and direct national orders, with the aim of speeding up deliveries and ensuring greater coordination across the alliance.​ They argued that the extra firepower is essential to help Ukraine hold the front lines, protect cities from missile and drone attacks, and […]
