'Ready to meet any time': Putin open to talks with Trump on Ukraine
Friday, 20 December 2024 Putin expressed readiness to discuss Ukraine with Trump, highlighting a potential shift in US-Russia relations. He also boasted about Russia's "Oreshnik" hypersonic missile and challenged Western defense systems with a provocative test-launch proposal targeting Kyiv. Putin congratulated Trump on his election victory, expressing optimism for future US-Russia relations.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has declared 2024 as the "Year of Victory," celebrating the fastest territorial advances since the early days of the Ukraine conflict in 2022. With 4,500 square kilometers of Ukrainian territory captured and nearly 200 settlements falling to Russian control, Moscow...
US President Donald Trump has described Russian President Vladimir Putin as “a professional” who has effectively handled Western sanctions amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict. The remarks followed a one-hour phone call between the two leaders where Trump pressed Putin on ending the war. While acknowledging Moscow’s resilience, Trump hinted that tougher sanctions may be on the way if the conflict continues.
The Kremlin reaffirmed its stance, insisting it would not back down from core goals. Meanwhile, a bipartisan bill in the US Senate proposes a staggering 500% tariff on imports from nations buying Russian energy, escalating the economic pressure. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed the bill’s backer, Senator Lindsey Graham, as a “Russophobe,” while reiterating Russia’s view that sanctions are illegal and counterproductive. Despite mounting restrictions since 2014, Russia claims its economy has adjusted and domestic industries have strengthened. The geopolitical standoff shows no signs of cooling.

In a powerful display of Russian resolve, President Vladimir Putin reaffirmed Moscow’s strategic objectives during a one-hour phone call with US President Donald Trump. Despite Trump expressing disappointment over the lack of progress on a peace deal, the Kremlin stood its ground, making clear that Russia’s military and political goals in Ukraine remain unchanged.

Trump has stunned observers by privately telling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that he wants to help Ukraine, despite recently pushing for the U.S. to freeze critical weapons deliveries. The contradictory moves have fueled speculation that Trump is leveraging military aid to gain influence over both Kyiv and Moscow ahead of the U.S. election. While Trump publicly blames Zelensky for prolonging the war, sources say he has quietly assured the Ukrainian leader of potential support if certain “conditions” are met.

Russia has used its hypersonic Oreshnik missile for the first time in an attack on Dnipro, Ukraine, striking at unmatched speeds of Mach 10–11. Surveillance footage showed six massive fireballs, and intelligence confirms the missile carried multiple warheads. President Putin touted its capabilities on state TV, warning NATO that the missile can bypass all current defenses and deliver devastation comparable to a nuclear strike—even with conventional payloads. The Pentagon has labeled it experimental, but its battlefield debut is sending shockwaves through Europe and the global defense community.

Following Ukraine’s Operation ‘Spider’s Web’ that destroyed 40 Russian bombers, Moscow has vowed massive retaliation, with President Putin reportedly ordering the RS-26 Oreshnik hypersonic missiles to be prepared. These nuclear-capable MIRVed weapons can strike deep into Europe and NATO territories. With Germany, the UK, and France backing Ukraine militarily, tensions are at a boiling point. Russia has warned that NATO troop presence in Ukraine would trigger direct escalation. As nuclear threats loom, fears of a global World War III grow more realistic.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has outrightly rejected Russia’s 2–3 day ceasefire proposal, calling it a "tactic" and branding Russian officials as "idiots." The offer, presented during peace talks in Istanbul, aimed to recover bodies from grey zones for “Christian burial.” Russia also handed over a draft peace memorandum, which Zelensky dismissed as an “ultimatum.” With Russia reportedly prepping nuclear-capable Oreshnik missiles, Zelensky urged the U.S. for more sanctions. Has Zelensky's move put the earth on the brink of World War III?

The second round of Russia-Europe peace talks in Istanbul ended in just over an hour, achieving no breakthrough. Led by Vladimir Medinsky and Rustem Umerov, the Russian and Ukrainian delegations sat across a U-shaped table, mediated by Turkey. Despite plans to exchange ceasefire terms, both sides remained sharply divided. Ukraine submitted a list of deported children and announced a new POW release. The talks occurred amid rising tensions following Ukraine’s Operation “Spider’s Web” and Russia’s threats to deploy nuclear-capable Oreshnik missiles.

President Vladimir Putin has ordered Russia’s Strategic Missile Command to prepare the RS-26 “Oreshnik” hypersonic missile in response to Ukraine’s devastating Operation “Spider’s Web,” which destroyed over 40 Russian warplanes. The Mach 10+ missile, capable of carrying MIRVed nuclear and conventional warheads, can strike deep into NATO territory while evading defense systems. With heightened tensions, Ukraine’s defenses are on high alert. The Oreshnik's deployment raises fears of nuclear escalation—casting a chilling shadow over Europe and fueling fears of a possible World War III.
