Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says talks with Russia and the United States are moving forward, with bilateral and trilateral negotiations set to continue as efforts intensify to end the war. Zelensky announced a likely prisoner-of-war exchange in the near future and stressed that any peace must be backed by real security guarantees and sustained pressure on Moscow. Warning against rewarding the aggressor, he urged Europe to tighten economic measures, particularly against Russia’s tanker fleet. The remarks come amid fresh controversy over airstrikes, with Zelensky accusing Russia of violating a truce while U.S. President Donald Trump said the agreed pause had already expired.
