US President Donald Trump is expected to speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin this week to finalise a Ukraine peace deal. “There is a very good chance that this horrible, bloody war can finally come to an end,” Trump said after talks with Putin. His envoy, Steve Witkoff, said Putin accepted the ceasefire proposal. A 30-day truce has been agreed upon, but some details remain unsettled. Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy accused Russia of delaying peace. “Russia seeks to prolong the war,” he said. Talks include Ukraine, Russia, and European nations like the UK, France, and Norway.
