Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov revealed the next steps in Russia-Ukraine negotiations following recent talks. Both sides agreed to exchange detailed lists of ceasefire conditions, but no Putin-Zelensky meeting will occur until concrete agreements are reached. A possible Putin-Trump call will be announced if deemed necessary. Negotiations remain confidential with no changes to the Russian delegation, and no contacts have taken place yet between Russian and US leaders after Istanbul. The focus now is on implementing existing agreements before further discussions.

US President Donald Trump has warned of imposing “crushing” new sanctions on Russia if Moscow fails to strike a peace deal with Ukraine. Speaking after the first direct Russia-Ukraine talks since 2022, Trump said the US would use its leverage and domestic oil production to weaken the Russian economy. He also hinted at a possible meeting with President Putin. Meanwhile, the two warring sides agreed on a major prisoner exchange involving 1,000 POWs each and committed to working on a comprehensive ceasefire proposal in the coming weeks.

U.S. President Donald Trump has lashed out at Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, calling him “the greatest salesman in the world” and accusing him of walking away from Washington with massive aid packages. In a new interview, Trump said he hated to see billions “pissed away” on Ukraine and questioned where the money went. With Congress growing skeptical, Trump also highlighted how Zelensky’s influence has waned. The remarks come just as Russia and Ukraine agreed to a major prisoner swap during their first direct peace talks in three years.

Russia and Ukraine concluded their first direct peace talks since 2022 in Istanbul, ending in under two hours. A major breakthrough remained elusive, with both nations agreeing only on a large prisoner swap of 1,000 POWs each. Ukraine, backed by Western allies, demanded a ceasefire, but Russia rejected the proposal and introduced new demands. Leaders from the U.S. and Europe called for tougher sanctions. Meanwhile, fighting intensifies on Ukrainian soil, with casualties mounting and fresh offensives anticipated. Hopes for a ceasefire dimmed as diplomacy stalled.

Putin has launched a scathing attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, accusing him of violating the proposed Easter ceasefire nearly 4,900 times within 48 hours. According to Russian officials, over 90 drone strikes and the use of U.S.-supplied HIMARS rockets were reported in just 30 hours. Moscow claims Zelensky deliberately shattered the truce, treating Easter as a “signal for war.” The Kremlin also accused Kyiv of following Western orders to sabotage peace talks and prolong the conflict. The tension mounts as Trump also expresses growing frustration with Zelensky's peace approach.

Russia launched deadly airstrikes across Ukraine just hours after ending its unilateral Easter ceasefire. Odesa was hit by a massive overnight drone attack, striking residential buildings, schools, and critical infrastructure. In Zaporizhzhia, Soviet-era glide bombs killed one woman and injured 22 civilians, including children. Ukraine reports over 2,900 ceasefire violations in just days. As Moscow escalates with 54 Shaheed drones in one night, tensions rise ahead of high-stakes talks between Kyiv, Washington, London, and Paris. Zelenskyy slams the ceasefire as a “sham” masking continued aggression.

At the White House Easter Egg Roll, U.S. President Donald Trump took a light-hearted jab at President Joe Biden, referencing the viral 2022 moment when a staffer in an Easter Bunny costume interrupted Biden mid-sentence. While addressing the crowd, Trump praised Pope Francis for his recent Easter message, combining solemnity with satire. The crowd responded with laughter as Trump said, “At least this year, no bunny is jumping in to save the moment.” The playful remark has since gained traction online, sparking both amusement and debate.

Russia has slammed French President Emmanuel Macron, accusing him of leading a “party of war” in NATO and the EU after he backed tougher sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict. The Kremlin says France is escalating hybrid warfare and blocking diplomacy by sending Mirage 2000 jets to Kyiv. Kremlin spokesperson Zakharova condemned the sanctions as an illegitimate trade war. Putin demands Ukraine halt mobilization and withdraw from Russian-claimed territories before any meaningful ceasefire talks can begin.

Peace talks between Russia and Ukraine are back on the table in Istanbul. Russian negotiator Vladimir Medinsky says Moscow is open to “possible compromises,” with a high-level delegation from defense, foreign affairs, and intelligence ministries already in place. Ukraine, which initially demanded a 30-day ceasefire, changed its stance after Donald Trump publicly backed renewed negotiations. President Zelensky, while refusing direct dialogue with Putin, has sent Defense Minister Rustem Umerov to lead the talks.
