Trump-Putin-Zelensky summit on the cards? Report reveals CIA director's proposal in Moscow

CIA director John Ratcliffe visited Moscow on an unannounced trip earlier this week, proposing a summit between US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss ending hostilities in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. According to sources, the visit aimed to assess if Russian intelligence services could help convince Putin to resume US-mediated peace talks.

However, Ratcliffe did not meet with Putin, and Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed that no meetings took place between the US officials and the Russian president. Peskov stated that contacts through intelligence agencies were a positive development, but it is too early to determine the impact on resolving the crisis in relations between the two countries.
