Ukraine War: US suggests withdrawal from Donbass in exchange for NATO membership according to Zelensky
Russia: Have taken Ukrainian town of Tersjanka +++ Starlink disruptions: Senators demand documents from Musk +++ Trump announces three-way meeting with Xi and Putin +++ The news blog.
Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed a new temporary ceasefire in the city of Kostjantyniwka in the Donetsk region during a meeting with US negotiators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner at the Kremlin. He suggested a five-day ceasefire to clear the area of mines and facilitate a humanitarian operation to evacuate hundreds of people, similar to a recent operation in Oleschky, Cherson region.
Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Selenskyj have differing views on who controls Kostjantyniwka, with Putin claiming it is under Russian control. The proposed operation would involve international media and follow a similar evacuation effort in Oleschky, which was facilitated by US First Lady Melania Trump. Witkoff and Kushner will also meet with President Selenskyj in Dublin.
