The Kremlin rejects ultimatums — “this language is unacceptable to Moscow,” Peskov said in response to sanctions threats. According to him, Putin is ready to resume talks with Ukraine — but with no preconditions.

Trump claimed he prevented a nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan by threatening to cut trade ties, saying, “I told them: stop, or there’s no trade — you stop, we trade.” He added that trade talks with India are ongoing and discussions with Pakistan could follow soon. Trump also noted that the upcoming Russia–Ukraine meeting on Thursday is “very important” and could lead to positive outcomes.

Russia has been officially found responsible for the downing of Malaysian airliner flight MH17 in July 2014, according to a decision by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

Russia violated the Chicago Convention, which explicitly prohibits the use of force against civil aircraft.

In the coming weeks, ICAO will consider the mechanisms by which Russia should provide compensation to the victims.

The European Union is preparing a new blow to Russia's shadow fleet. Specifically, the EU plans to ban 25 Russian oil tankers from sailing in the Baltic and North Seas.

🇺🇸 US envoy Witkoff says there’s no way to end the war without Putin agreeing to it. He pointed to talks possibly including Ukraine giving up territory, using the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, and access to the Dnipro River and Black Sea.

He added that Trump is pushing hard for direct talks — and if that doesn’t happen, the US might walk away from the peace efforts entirely.

Good morning…

If Putin refuses to negotiate in Turkey, it will be the last signal of Russia's unwillingness to end the war , — Yermak

Also, according to the head of the OP, if Russia refuses to negotiate, there should be a strong reaction from the US and the whole world: sanctions and increased military assistance to Ukraine.

If there is no progress in the ceasefire in Ukraine this week, sanctions against Russia will be strengthened, - German Chancellor Merz

The new sanctions will affect energy and financial markets.

Putin did not respond to the demand for a ceasefire put forward by Friedrich Merz and the leaders of the EU countries - in response, a 17th package of sanctions is being prepared, but it will be even weaker than expected , - Handelsblatt

Journalists doubt the effectiveness, as the previous 16 packages have not forced Russia to change course. Hungary, as before, is blocking tougher measures, and the EU admits: "We have reached the limit of sanctions pressure."

Officially: Putin will not be in Istanbul, – WP citing Kremlin sources
