Ukraine-Russia war: Zelenskyy dials PM Modi, raises issue of oil trade; to meet in-person soon

WW3 Brewing...? Why Putin Chose Alaska To Meet Trump? Will Trump Sell Ukraine To Russia?

A high-stakes showdown is set to unfold in Alaska as Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump prepare for direct talks that could reshape the global balance of power. With the Ukraine war at a critical juncture, speculation is mounting over whether Trump will strike a deal with Moscow — and at what cost to Kiev. Reports suggest territorial swaps are on the table, an idea Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected, vowing never to cede land to Russia. The choice of Alaska — a symbolic and strategic location once sold by Russia to the United States — has fueled intrigue, raising questions about the real motives behind the venue. Is this a step toward peace, or the beginning of a dangerous new chapter in the conflict? The world is watching as the stage is set for a potentially history-changing negotiation. #WW3 #PutinTrumpSummit #AlaskaTalks #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraineConflict #Trump #Putin #Geopolitics #UkraineCrisis #RussiaNews #Zelensky #TerritorialSwap #PeaceTalks #USPolitics #WorldNews #UkraineSupport #RussiaUSRelations #AlaskaSummit #UkraineNews #GlobalTensions ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.420~

Zelensky NOT INVITED to Trump-Putin Alaska Peace Talks? Ukraine LEFT OUT, Russia Gains Upper Hand

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has reportedly not been invited to the upcoming Trump–Putin peace summit in Alaska on August 15, raising concerns of a diplomatic sidelining. White House sources say the meeting will focus on U.S.–Russia dialogue at Moscow’s request. While Trump has floated territorial swaps as a path to peace, Zelensky rejects the idea, citing constitutional limits. The Kremlin insists talks must address Crimea and four regions annexed in 2022, while Ukraine refuses any concessions, leaving negotiations at an impasse. #TrumpPutin #Zelensky #UkraineWar #PeaceTalks #RussiaUkraine #AlaskaSummit #Trump #Putin #USRussia #UkraineConflict #Crimea #Donetsk #Luhansk #Zaporozhye #Kherson #TerritorialSwaps #UkraineNews #RussiaNews #WarNegotiations #BreakingNews #Kremlin #Diplomacy #UkraineRussiaWar #Moscow #Washington #Geopolitics #PeaceSummit #UkraineSidelined #TrumpNews #PutinNews #GlobalPolitics Also Read Did India’s S-400 Strike On Pakistan’s F-16s Trigger Trump’s Tariff War On New Delhi?

‘Absolutely Possible’: U.S Considering Zelensky Invite To Alaska For Trump–Putin Talks | Reports

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is urgently rallying European leaders ahead of Donald Trump’s high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin. Speaking with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Zelensky warned of “the danger of Russia’s plan” to force Ukraine into discussing the “impossible” — territorial exchanges that would favor Moscow’s future war ambitions. While Trump is expected to sit down with Putin soon, Zelensky is pushing for maximum coordination with the UK, US, EU, and other allies to secure a “truly lasting peace” and avoid any deal that simply reconfigures the conflict. He also emphasized Ukraine’s progress toward EU membership, warning that Russia has not shifted its stance on ending the war and continues to fuel the fighting. #Trump #Zelensky #Putin #Alaska #Summit #Ukraine #Russia #USPolitics #Geopolitics #Diplomacy #August15 #NBCNews #WhiteHouse #GlobalTensions #USRussia #USUkraine #PoliticalDrama #HighStakes #InternationalRelations #BreakingNews ~HT.178~GR.124~ED.103~

Ukraine Strikes Russian Oil Refinery 2,000 KM from Border after Putin’s Ceasefire Proposal Rejected

Ukraine has launched one of its deepest and most daring drone strikes yet, hitting the Lukoil-Ukhta oil refinery in Russia’s Komi Republic — over 2,000 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. This unprecedented attack signals a major escalation in Ukraine’s long-range capabilities, directly targeting Russia’s critical infrastructure far from the front lines. Meanwhile, Europe and Ukraine have firmly rejected Vladimir Putin’s proposed ceasefire, instead presenting a joint counterproposal to the United States ahead of a potential Trump-Putin meeting, according to The Wall Street Journal. This video breaks down Ukraine's latest offensive moves, the global response to Putin’s proposal, and what this means for the future of the war. #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #DroneStrike #UkraineStrike #Putin #Ceasefire #KomiRepublic #UkrainianOffensive #UkraineNews #RussiaWar #Lukoil #MilitaryNews #Geopolitics #UkraineVsRussia #BreakingNews Also Read Ukrainian First Lady’s Special Surprise Stop In Jaipur Before Japan Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-first-lady-s-special-surprise-stop-in-jaipur-before-japan-visit-7821279.html?ref=DMDesc India, China, Brazil Could Be Hit Hard For Trading With Russia: NATO Secretary Rutte :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-china-brazil-could-be-hit-hard-for-trading-with-russia-nato-secretary-rutte-7802537.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.274~GR.124~ED.194~

‘Witkoff Misunderstood Putin’s…’: U.S’ Shocking Blunder Ahead Of High-Stakes Trump-Putin Talks

Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff has come under fire after reportedly misinterpreting Russian President Vladimir Putin’s ceasefire terms, according to German outlet BILD. Sources say Putin demanded full control of Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson while offering only a limited halt to attacks on energy sites and major cities—not a full ceasefire. Witkoff allegedly believed Putin was proposing a withdrawal from Ukrainian territories, a misunderstanding that baffled both European partners and members of Trump’s own team. High-level calls between U.S. and European officials exposed confusion, internal disagreements, and a lack of unified strategy. With Trump’s Alaska meeting with Putin looming on August 15, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reaffirmed that Ukraine will never surrender its land. The revelations raise concerns about U.S. negotiation credibility, European involvement, and the risks of misreading Moscow’s intentions in the ongoing war. #Trump #Putin #UkraineWar #Ceasefire #SteveWitkoff #BILD #RussiaUkraine #Zelensky #Donetsk #Luhansk #Kherson #Zaporizhzhia #USPolitics #Europe #Diplomacy #Geopolitics #PeaceTalks #WarInUkraine #Russia #AlaskaSummit ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.124~

BREAKING: Trump And Zelensky In Talks To Seal Explosive Ukraine Peace Deal Without Breaking Laws

In a high-stakes geopolitical maneuver, Ukraine, the U.S., and key European allies are set to meet in the U.K. ahead of Donald Trump’s planned summit with Vladimir Putin, Axios reports. The urgent talks aim to align positions before Trump attempts to broker a controversial peace deal to end the Ukraine war. U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff recently met Putin in Moscow, with conflicting reports emerging on possible territorial concessions — ranging from ceding Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea, to freezing the conflict along current frontlines. Some leaders believe Putin may even relinquish Zaporizhzhia and Kherson. Trump has hinted at “territory swapping,” raising fears in Kyiv over sovereignty. Zelensky insists any territorial changes must comply with Ukrainian law, potentially requiring a referendum. With secrecy, conflicting proposals, and high tensions, the U.K. talks could shape the war’s endgame — or ignite new disputes. #Ukraine #Trump #Putin #Zelensky #PeaceDeal #RussiaUkraineWar #UKTalks #Geopolitics #Ceasefire #WarNegotiations #Kyiv #Moscow #TerritorySwap #USRussia #UkraineAllies #Diplomacy #BreakingNews #WorldPolitics #PeaceTalks #Summit ~ED.103~HT.408~

Russia Rains Missiles On Zaporizhzhia Overnight Killing 2 Civilians | 500+ Strikes Rock Ukraine

Two civilians were killed and at least 10 injured—including four children—after a massive Russian strike barrage on Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia region. Governor Ivan Fedorov confirmed that 567 attacks were carried out in 24 hours across 16 settlements. Nine buildings were damaged in the Zaporizhzhia city district alone. As rescue operations scramble to contain the fallout, the latest assault underscores Russia’s continued aggression on front-line Ukrainian cities. Emergency responders remain on-site as fears of more strikes loom. Though Russia has not commented, both Moscow and Kyiv routinely deny targeting civilians, despite widespread destruction in populated areas. Zaporizhzhia, home to Europe’s largest nuclear plant, has become a battleground of immense strategic importance. The escalating situation brings fresh global attention to the human toll of the war that has killed thousands of Ukrainian civilians since 2022.
