President Donald Trump has voiced frustration with both Russian leader Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as ceasefire negotiations remain deadlocked. Trump accused Putin of undermining talks by questioning Zelensky’s legitimacy but also criticized the Ukrainian leader for “backing out” of key agreements, including a minerals deal.
However, Russian drone strikes continue to pound Ukrainian cities, escalating tensions as the world watches for a potential breakthrough. With Ukraine pushing for NATO membership and Russia tightening its grip, the peace process faces severe roadblocks. The coming weeks will determine whether diplomacy can prevail or if the conflict will intensify once again.
