US officials are on their way to Russia for talks on a potential ceasefire in Ukraine, as reported by the White House. The discussions come at a critical time as the conflict between Ukraine and Russia has escalated in recent weeks.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed his country’s determination to work towards peace with its partners. However, Russian President Vladimir Putin has not yet commented on the proposed ceasefire.
Despite the diplomatic efforts, fighting has persisted on the ground, with both Ukraine and Russia reporting drone attacks overnight. The situation remains tense and uncertain as the two countries continue to engage in a deadly conflict.
The talks between US officials and Russian representatives could potentially pave the way for a much-needed ceasefire in Ukraine. The international community is closely watching the developments, hopeful for a peaceful resolution to the ongoing conflict.

Russia can never be trusted! They are an agent of evil and chaos spreading death and destruction to their own and others
Peace….about time. Thank you Trump
You think Russians are fools! Have you decided to cheat again??? Russia is advancing and announced its demands at the beginning of the war! Do YOU want to give Ukraine a break to regroup, replenish with ammunition, people and start again??? Would Hitler have agreed to an armistice during the war?
❤❤❤❤❤
Long way to go,if they manage to get putin to agree to ceasefire,then the peace talks only begin,then its up to Ukraine to concede the land already lost and other conditions putin will have.
lol maybe a few thousand North Koreans meanwhile Ukraine had 10s of thousands of western mercenaries went into Kursk lol this last mole was the propagandist lol the guy at the start was the realist lol just a butt hurt mile at the end lol Putin has never said he wants all of Ukraine lol now I see the propaganda lol what a joke
The UK trying to be relevant here.
She was absolutely right. Criminal Putin wants Ukraine entirely not just a part. Criminal Putin will sign for 30 days and give himself and North Korea time for the FINISHING TOUCHES of Ukraine. 31 days after!!!
You need to play fair with Russia, or not play at all! Russia will not allow itself to be deceived again!
No ceasefire….keep going
Hail Z 🇷🇺
Don’t trust Russia’s propaganda
Difficult to explain that the usa has lost the war!
Peace for better all
Russia must demand an unconditional surrender. They must demand the arrest, trial, and life imprisonment of Zelensky. In addition, Russia needs to install a Ukraine government friendly to Russia.
What are you talking about dushette
Didn't Ukraine, just receive billions from Europe? Now, all of a sudden, Ukraine wants a cease fire. What happens to all that money?
Everyone knows that West is playing a dramatic game to blame Russia again
It’s so absurd the US are sending government officials to Russia to appease Putin. He started this war and now he’s going to get rewarded by Trump and allowed to keep swatches of Ukraine territory that’s his ‘Z’ forces have committed countless atrocities on
It's all a waste of time. Putin needs to show his people that he has won. Therefore, he will not return the territories taken from Ukraine, he does not want Ukraine to join NATO, nor does he want Ukraine to have NATO forces to protect Ukraine. He will not give up on this. Just watch!!!
As if Russia will agree to a ceasefire only for Ukraine to rearm now that the US continues supplying weapons and military aid to Ukraine.
Mr Trump is in a very good position to stop the war. I know for now it maybe difficult to understand him. And in the end you're going to praise Trump, make no mistake about that
Putin wants a cease fire and negotiations for years! He was ready to sign a cease fire and negotiate but then B. Johnson went to Ukraine and said “go on buddy fight, we got you” Did you forget that? What a nonsense media you are…Are you not ashamed?
Russia’s holding all the aces.
but why is the westerners so much interested in the ceasefire
The UK Defense Minister, what pathetic person. No threat will work. If you can face alone Russia. Too much barking, does not make you a man. No credibility you own.
We are now in 2025. Not in 1965. Cold War Era ways don't work anymore.
Putin: Trump, you don't have the cards ;). Seriously hopefully this can be ended!
France already send war airplanes. You give a warning of signal is not ok!
I think they will agree on it if military aid stops flowing in .
This site deleting good comments or my feed is lagging bad.
Rubio comes across as very weak with "we hope this and that." He will be schooled shortly.
(1:20) Did he meet Putin in his Dream? ^_^
What kind of circus is this anyway? It sounds like: "We demand that you accept our capitulation" how can you be so pathetic.
I hope Putin says 'THANK YOU'. And since when is Putin not wearing a suit? lol
President Trump needs to be given 'The Nobel Peace Prize'. As without him the western criminal establishment would have dragged this war out for much, much longer and loaded the Ukrainian people up with an astronomical level of crippling debt. Not to mention the debt that is being borrowed in all of our names to keep on sending to Ukraine here in the UK. Money that we also don't have as we are skint.
Mr.Trump has already asked the UK prime minister can the UK win the war with Russia and UK prime minister was No and what kind of theater are you playing Mr Defence minister???
I hope we have all not forgotten the number of times Israel rejected a seize fire in Gaza?? There are no bad or good guys in the world of politics sadly
My opinion – President Trump will anger President Putin so much that it could very well start WW111.
Colonial British theater.
