The momentum for a Ukrainian peace deal that emerged after the August summit between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump has dissipated, according to Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.
Ryabkov warned that the potential presence of U.S. Tomahawk missiles in Ukraine marks a significant change in the regional landscape, as reported by Interfax.
President Trump, earlier this week, expressed his caution regarding the potential escalation of the conflict, noting he wants clarity on Ukraine's intentions with the missiles before offering his approval.
