Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Kremlin Cools Talk of Peace Summit as Trump Pushes for Ukraine-Russia Meeting
Caption: Kremlin Cools Talk of Peace Summit as Trump Pushes for Ukraine-Russia Meeting. The Kremlin is downplaying speculation about a potential summit between Russia's Vladimir Putin and Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky, despite U.S. President Donald Trump urging the two leaders to meet and discuss ending the war. The push follows Trump's recent talks with Putin in Alaska and a White House meeting with Zelensky and European leaders. Trump admitted the conflict is "tough to solve" and suggested Putin may not be ready for peace, though he said he's open to attending a summit if needed. Russia's foreign minister stressed any meeting must be prepared in stages, while NATO leaders and European allies continue talks on security guarantees for Ukraine. Reports say Putin even floated the idea of Zelensky traveling to Moscow—something Kyiv is highly unlikely to accept. Despite uncertainty, European leaders and Ukraine remain supportive of direct talks, seeing them as a step toward a possible peace deal—though deep mistrust between Moscow and Kyiv remains a major obstacle.
