‘No Summit, Only Blood…’ German Chancellor Merz DROPS Bombshell On Putin-Zelensky Summit

The prospect of a Putin-Zelensky peace summit has collapsed into chaos following Russia’s devastating strike on Kyiv that killed 19 people, including four children. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared there would be “no summit, only blood, missiles and broken promises,” while Ukraine retaliated with drone attacks on Russian oil refineries. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz bluntly confirmed there would “obviously” be no summit despite Donald Trump’s dramatic push after his Alaska meeting with Putin. Moscow insists talks can only happen after “tangible progress,” something Kyiv and NATO allies reject outright. The collapse highlights the crumbling state of diplomacy in Europe, where leaders now openly prepare for wider war. Trump had hoped to position himself as a peacemaker, but European officials dismissed his roadmap as unrealistic. With NATO deployments looming and Russia warning of escalation, the world faces a dangerous new turning point. #Putin #Zelensky #Trump #UkraineWar #RussiaStrike #KyivAttack #PeaceSummit #DroneStrikes #NATO #Moscow #EuropeCrisis #Geopolitics #Merz #Macron #Lavrov #UkraineRussiaWar #BreakingNews #GlobalConflict #Missiles #WorldNews ~HT.178~GR.122~ED.194~

‘Tell Putin For Ceasefire’: German Chancellor Merz Vaporizes Trump's Deal In Front of EU Leaders

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is pushing back against Donald Trump’s peace initiative, demanding a Russian ceasefire before any summit with Putin and Zelensky can proceed. Merz warned that credibility of negotiations depends on Moscow halting attacks, urging European leaders to pressure Putin. He confirmed discussions with U.S. and EU partners on security guarantees for Ukraine but cautioned Putin’s participation in talks remains uncertain. While Trump pushes for direct negotiations, Merz insists Europe must play a central role in shaping long-term security arrangements. #Merz #Germany #Trump #Putin #Zelensky #UkraineWar #CeasefireNow #PeaceTalks #BreakingNews #Washington #EU #SecurityGuarantees #Geopolitics #GlobalPolitics #RussiaUkraine #TrumpPeaceDeal #CeasefireFirst #DiplomaticPush #NATO #WorldNews Also Read Trump To Arrange Face-To-Face Meeting Between Putin And Ukraine's Zelenskyy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-to-arrange-face-to-face-meeting-between-putin-and-ukraines-zelenskyy-7833925.html?ref=DMDesc European Leaders Arrive At White House To Meet Trump On Ending Russia's War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/european-leaders-arrive-at-white-house-to-meet-trump-on-ending-russias-war-7833821.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Suggests "Best Way" To End Russia-Ukraine War After Meeting Putin In Alaska :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-suggests-best-way-to-end-russia-ukraine-war-after-meeting-putin-in-alaska-7832063.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~

Trump-Zelensky SHOWDOWN Will Lead To Full-Scale EU-U.S War? Ukraine On Edge As Putin Derail Talks

A historic confrontation is unfolding in Washington as President Donald Trump meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, joined by key European leaders including Macron, Merz, Meloni, Starmer, von der Leyen, Stubb, and NATO’s Mark Rutte. This comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he backed a plan for Ukraine to cede Crimea and parts of Donbas, abandon NATO, and accept neutrality. Europe and Kyiv fiercely reject this “surrender deal,” warning it rewards Russian aggression and threatens NATO itself. Trump’s transactional “America First” diplomacy—focused on quick wins and cutting U.S. military spending—clashes directly with Europe’s push for long-term security and continued military aid. As Russia intensifies strikes, Europe views concessions as catastrophic. Tensions inside the White House are boiling: will this meeting end in compromise, or spark a full-scale rift between America and Europe that could reshape global order? #Trump #Zelensky #Putin #WhiteHouseShowdown #USEUClash #UkraineWar #AlaskaSummit #Crimea #Donbas #NATO #Macron #MerkelSuccessor #KeirStarmer #GiorgiaMeloni #VonDerLeyen #MarkRutte #AlexanderStubb #UkraineResistance #AmericaFirst #GlobalCrisis ~HT.178~ED.194~GR.124~

Zelensky Killing Opposition? | MP alleges Zelensky’s hand in assassination of Far-Right Politician

Ukrainian police are probing possible Russian involvement, while Russian diplomat Rodion Miroshnik alleged Parubiy was eliminated to ease future peace talks.

Trump’s Fierce Warning to Putin as Russia Bombs Ukraine despite Alaska talks|‘All Options on Table’

U.S. President Donald Trump is signaling a tougher stance on Russia as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned that all options remain open for new sanctions amid Moscow’s intensified bombardment of Ukraine. Bessent called Putin’s actions “despicable and defiant,” marking the strongest hint yet of looming economic penalties.

Europe Publicly SUPPORTS US’ Ukraine Peace Plan But Privately PRESSURES Kiev To Escalate War?

White House is pointing fingers at Europe, accusing EU leaders of obstructing Ukraine peace talks with what it calls “unreasonable” and “fairy-tale” demands. According to Axios, senior US officials say some European governments publicly endorse President Donald Trump’s peace drive while privately pushing Kiev toward unrealistic conditions, prolonging the war. Trump, fresh from his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin and meetings with Volodymyr Zelensky, is pressing for a lasting peace deal—not just a ceasefire. But frustration is mounting in Washington, with officials warning Europe against escalating while leaving America to pay the cost. The Atlantic reported that Trump has grown impatient with both Kiev’s unwillingness to make concessions and EU refusal to back what he calls a “realistic outcome.” Moscow, meanwhile, insists on neutrality for Ukraine, rejection of NATO expansion, and recognition of new territorial realities, including Crimea and Donbass as part of Russia. #Trump #EU #Ukraine #Putin #Zelensky #Russia #US #NATO #UkrainePeace #BreakingNews #Moscow #Kyiv #Washington #Europe #Conflict #Diplomacy #UkraineWar #PeaceTalks #Axios #TheAtlantic ~HT.410~GR.124~

Trump’s EXPLOSIVE Claims Amid SCO 2025 | Vows To Conduct Trilateral Meeting Between Putin & Zelensky

A diplomatic drama is unfolding as US President Donald Trump declared that a trilateral summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky “will happen.” The statement comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he urged a one-on-one between Moscow and Kyiv first. While the Kremlin has not ruled out direct talks, it insists any bilateral must be the final stage once concrete progress is made. Meanwhile, Zelensky has reportedly asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “send the right signal” to Putin, pressing India’s weight as a potential mediator. Kremlin officials confirm flexibility on some issues, but warn NATO’s militarization of Ukraine makes peace elusive. With Putin currently in China, Trump’s bold promise, Kyiv’s appeals to Modi, and Moscow’s warnings against Western “peacekeepers” are shaping a high-stakes diplomatic gamble that could define the next phase of the Ukraine war. #Trump #Putin #Zelensky #Modi #Russia #Ukraine #US #China #Moscow #Kyiv #PeaceTalks #TrilateralSummit #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #NATO #India #AlaskaSummit #Diplomacy #UkraineWar #WorldPolitics ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.124~

Russia-Ukraine All Out War: Ukraine’s Faces Yet Another ‘MASSIVE’ Attack | CHILLING ESCALATION

Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region has come under a “massive attack,” according to regional governor Sergiy Lysak, who confirmed explosions in the key cities of Dnipro and Pavlograd. Residents have been urged to take shelter as Russian missiles and drones pound the region. Until now, Dnipropetrovsk had largely escaped the intensity of frontline battles, but the situation has shifted dramatically. Kyiv admitted that Russian forces have crossed into the region, while Moscow boasted of gaining a foothold there. This marks a dangerous expansion of the war, as the region is not among the five Ukrainian territories Russia has officially claimed. The attack raises fears of an intensified campaign in Ukraine’s industrial heartland, signaling that no part of the country is beyond reach. With explosions shaking Dnipro, Ukraine’s fourth-largest city, the strikes are seen as a chilling escalation that could redraw the battlefield once more. #Ukraine #Dnipro #RussiaUkraineWar #BreakingNews #UkraineWar #Dnipropetrovsk #RussianAttack #WarInUkraine #Kyiv #Pavlograd #Putin #Zelensky #UkraineConflict #DniproAttack #UkraineNews #RussianForces #Escalation #UkraineFrontline #WarUpdates #UkraineCrisis
