Ukraine war: Russia reports heavy attack on Kyiv
Report: Putin suggests Ukraine summit with Trump and Xi +++ Trump wants to keep Moscow at the negotiating table +++ Rubio defends suspension of new sanctions against Russia +++ The news blog.
US Senator Marco Rubio has defended President Donald Trump's decision to suspend new sanctions against Russia. Trump put on hold a law passed by Congress that included sanctions and tariffs, citing the need to analyze the potential impact on the global and US economies. The suspension was for 60 days, amid concerns about the effects on energy prices and global trade, particularly in the context of ongoing conflicts in Ukraine, Saudi Arabia, and Iran.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed concern about a potential US rapprochement with Russia, warning that it would be a "historical error" and a "great tragedy" if the US were to withdraw its support for Ukraine.
