  "summary": "US President Donald Trump has predicted a \"very big\" deal with Russia that would potentially involve all of Europe in addition to the war in Ukraine, according to Punch Nigeria.\n\nAt the White House, US First Lady Melania Trump hosted a rare meeting between Russian and Ukrainian officials on Thursday. According to Free Malaysia Today, she called for a more enduring ceasefire, urging the officials to use a localized six-day truce in the city of Oleshky as a spark to find common ground. Melania Trump stated that the cooperation regarding the Oleshky truce establishes a meaningful precedent for advancing peace in the region.\n\nFree Malaysia Today reports that the First Lady dispatched personal letters to Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky via their envoys. Punch also noted that the meeting aimed to build upon the recent truce in Oleshky.",
