On May 13, U.S. President Donald Trump made a major announcement at the Saudi-U.S. Partnership Forum in Riyadh. He revealed that Secretary of State Marco Rubio will be in Istanbul later this week for potential Russia-Ukraine peace talks. “I’ve been working relentlessly to end the terrible bloodshed between Russia and Ukraine,” Trump said, adding that the talks are expected to take place on Thursday. This comes amid renewed diplomatic momentum — Russian President Vladimir Putin has offered direct talks without preconditions, while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed willingness to meet Putin, but only if a ceasefire is established first. Could this be a breakthrough moment? Watch now for the full story and analysis.

In a bold move ahead of critical peace talks in Istanbul, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy challenges Russian President Vladimir Putin to meet face-to-face, daring him to engage in direct discussions for the first time in years. As the world watches, Putin lashes out at Ukraine’s forced conscription tactics, accusing Kyiv of "snatching people like dogs in the streets." Meanwhile, Russian forces continue to volunteer in large numbers, according to Putin, who proudly claims that 50,000-60,000 Russians sign up willingly every month.

President Donald Trump has hinted at easing long-standing U.S. sanctions on Syria, citing new overtures from Syrian leader Sharaa and a potential “fresh start.” Sharaa is offering U.S. companies access to valuable minerals in a Ukraine-style deal and has even floated the idea of a Trump Tower in Damascus. Talks are reportedly being brokered by intermediaries from Saudi Arabia and Turkey, while Trump’s advisers remain divided. A possible meeting with Sharaa during Trump’s Mideast trip remains unconfirmed as regional power dynamics shift and economic opportunities open.

In a fiery new statement, Russian President Vladimir Putin accused Ukraine of violating Russia’s ceasefire proposals by launching a massive drone and missile offensive. According to Putin, Ukraine ignored multiple Russian peace overtures — including a Victory Day ceasefire offer — and responded instead with an unprecedented 524 drones, Western-supplied missiles, and 45 unmanned sea vessels.
Putin slammed Zelensky’s leadership, listing what he claims are repeated ceasefire violations, and hinted that Russia is still open to extending the truce — if Kyiv chooses peace over escalation.

The proposal comes amid threats of new sanctions from Western allies if Russia rejects a 30-day truce. U.S. President Trump hailed the move as “a potentially great day,” pledging support to both sides. European leaders also backed the plan during a visit to Kyiv. The Kremlin insists Moscow is serious about a diplomatic resolution.

The US has drafted a new sanctions package against Russia targeting major energy and banking sectors. However, its enforcement hinges on President Donald Trump’s approval as Washington balances pressure with peace prospects. Amid ceasefire talks between Moscow and Kiev, Trump’s administration is weighing a deal recognizing Crimea and freezing the war front. Internal debate continues as senators demand harsher penalties, while others warn sanctions could derail diplomacy. The final decision rests with Trump, whose stance could reshape the conflict's trajectory and America's role in Ukraine's future.

In a major shift, the U.S. has stepped back from directly mediating Ukraine-Russia peace talks, urging both sides to present concrete proposals for ending the war. The move comes as President Trump grows frustrated with the lack of progress despite several meetings and major pro-Ukraine actions, including a $50 million arms package. With Crimea still a major sticking point, the U.S. withdrawal dims hopes for a near-term resolution.

Description: Ukraine launched a massive drone attack on the Russian-occupied Crimea on the night of May 1-2. Footage released by a Crimean handle called ‘CrimeanWinds’ showed that a Russian airfield in the area was destroyed even as Russian authorities claimed that they had shot down several Ukrainian drones and UAVs. This latest strikes comes just a day after U.S. approved a $50mn arms sale to Ukraine and peace talks remain in limbo.

U.S Special Envoy Steve Witkoff recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin in a bid to persuade Russia for a ceasefire deal in Ukraine. This was the 4th such meeting in just over 2 months, but there seems to be no breakthrough yet as Putin remains firm recognition of Russia's control over Crimea and the four regions under Russian control since 2022. With peace talks stalling, could a Putin-Trump summit be the only path forward?

US President Donald Trump has claimed Ukraine could be “crushed very shortly” unless it agrees to peace talks with Russia. In an interview with The Atlantic, Trump said he’s trying to save Ukraine by pushing for negotiations, suggesting Moscow is open to a deal. He criticized Kiev’s stance, especially on Crimea, and hinted Zelensky was tougher to negotiate with than Putin. Meanwhile, Vice President Vance echoed similar concerns, and Secretary of State Rubio warned of the US abandoning talks if delays persist. Trump is also seeking a minerals agreement with Ukraine.
