Ukraine’s president and European leaders are accusing Russian President Vladimir Putin of stalling on peace efforts in Ukraine

As the Kremlin throttles WhatsApp and Telegram, the new MAX messaging app is moving Russia closer to a restricted internet without foreign technology.

Donald Trump urged Volodymyr Zelenskyy to accept Russia’s terms for ending its war in a volatile White House meeting on Friday, warning that Vladimir Putin had said he would “destroy” Ukraine if it did not agree.

Kremlin envoy Kirill Dmitriev floated the tunnel idea late on Thursday after Putin spoke to Trump by phone and agreed to meet in Budapest.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected to push Trump for additional long-range weapons capable of striking targets inside Russian territory when he meets with Trump in Washington at the White House on Friday.

A weekend call between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy devolved into a "shouting match," and Russian state media pundits are now declaring it the result of Russian President Vladimir Putin's influence over Trump.

The denial came after a Financial Times report described a closed-door meeting at the White House that allegedly devolved into a “shouting match."
