European leaders showed support but promised continued sanctions. Trump plans further talks but faced criticism for aligning with Putin.

In a notable summit, former U.S. President Donald Trump provoked discussion by advising Ukraine to consider a settlement with Russia to conclude the ongoing conflict. Trump's perspective emphasized Russia's significant military prowess as he urged Ukrainian leaders to engage in negotiations despite their rejection of any ceasefire proposal.
Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin conversed about achieving a peace agreement directly, bypassing the temporary resolution of a ceasefire. This shift from past U.S. policy stirred international reactions, with European nations pledging support for Ukraine while maintaining pressure on Moscow through sanctions.
Trump's engagement with Putin has faced criticism due to its alignment with Moscow's stance, yet signals further diplomatic interactions as he proposed additional discussions. Amid mixed receptions, the dialogue has amplified global scrutiny over the war's resolution, especially regarding Ukraine's territorial integrity and security guarantees.
