Russia is 'open to negotiations' with Ukraine, says Kremlin
"Russia as a whole is open to the negotiation process, but first we need to understand how ready Ukraine is," Dmitry Peskov, press secretary for Russian President Vladimir Putin, said.
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. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov emphasized that Moscow seeks peace—but only on its own terms.
He added that Russia is paying close attention to Trump’s statements but is prioritizing long-term national interests. The call also covered cooperation in energy and space sectors, as well as Middle East stability. Putin reiterated that Russia would not compromise on neutralizing the threats that triggered the special military operation. The Kremlin described the conversation as “concrete and businesslike,” signaling that Moscow will continue to engage diplomatically, but without sacrificing its core objectives. Russia remains open to talks—but not surrender.

In a high-stakes diplomatic turn, Russia has declared its unwavering support for Iran amid rising U.S.-Israel hostilities. Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated, “Everything will depend on what Iran needs,” emphasizing Russia’s readiness to act accordingly. Following a crucial meeting between Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and President Putin, Moscow slammed the Western aggression as baseless. Putin called the attacks “unprovoked” and offered mediation and strategic backing to Tehran. The growing Russia-Iran axis could shift power dynamics in the Middle East. What happens next depends solely on Iran's decision.

A massive explosion struck the Crimean Bridge — a key Russian military supply route — in the early hours of June 3. Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) has claimed responsibility, stating that over a ton of TNT equivalent explosives were used to damage the bridge’s underwater supports. But the Kremlin paints a different picture. Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed the blast but insisted the bridge remains “fully functional” and sustained “no damage.”
So, what really happened? Is Russia downplaying the incident — or is Ukraine overstating the success of its strike? This latest act of sabotage escalates the ongoing war of narratives between Kyiv and Moscow.
Watch the full report for key visuals, statements from both sides, and the broader implications for the war in Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and French President Emmanuel Macron held a crucial call—their first since 2022—focusing on Iran’s nuclear program under the NPT. As US-Israeli strikes escalate tensions, Macron urged Putin to ensure Iran complies with international norms. Putin reaffirmed Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear energy but demanded strict NPT compliance. The leaders agreed that diplomacy—not military action—is key to avoiding conflict. Macron also admitted no progress on Ukraine peace. The call marks a shift in France’s tone toward diplomacy with Russia.

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.

In a striking display of diplomatic unity, Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan declared that Riyadh welcomes Russia’s role in Middle Eastern affairs during a high-profile press conference with Russian FM Sergey Lavrov in Moscow. The comment signals a major shift in Gulf geopolitics, showing Saudi Arabia's increasing tilt toward Moscow as regional dynamics evolve. Lavrov and Farhan met at the Russian MFA Reception House, emphasizing cooperation on regional security, energy, and investment. Farhan praised Russia’s involvement as “always welcome,” underlining a growing partnership despite global Western efforts to isolate Moscow. The press conference further confirms Russia's expanding clout in the Gulf as the Kremlin strengthens alliances outside the West. The talks come amid heightened tensions in the region, and suggest Saudi Arabia is now playing a more independent, multi-vector diplomatic game — balancing its ties between Washington, Moscow, and Beijing.

In a stunning geopolitical shift, Russia has become the first country to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. Russian Ambassador Dmitry Zhirnov personally conveyed the recognition to Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi in Kabul, marking what Taliban leaders called a "new phase" in bilateral relations.
The Kremlin, now seeking to strengthen regional influence, sees commercial potential in Afghanistan’s energy, agriculture, and infrastructure sectors, despite global condemnation of the Taliban's human rights record. Since returning to power in 2021, the Taliban have faced international isolation for enforcing brutal Sharia laws and gender apartheid. Yet, Russia has maintained its embassy, signed economic deals, removed the Taliban from its terror list, and labeled them allies in the fight against extremism. As the West tightens sanctions, Russia's move could set a precedent for others considering formal engagement with Kabul's hardline rulers.
