Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky believed President Donald Trump was ready to impose sanctions on Russia after the two world leaders met at the Vatican last month, according to remarks released Wednesday.

President Trump said he would know in about two weeks whether Russian President Vladimir Putin is committed to ending the war in Ukraine.

A group of G.O.P. senators has grown more vocal about urging penalties on Russia for its aggression against Ukraine, offering a counterpoint to President Trump’s hands-off stance.

European shares remained stable on Tuesday, supported by defence stocks after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened additional sanctions on Russia, though broader gains were restrained by ongoing caution over U.

Ukraine says Russia launched its biggest drone strike to date after Trump called Putin crazy for stepping up his offensive and "needlessly killing a lot of people."

Russia's recent actions have tested not just Trump's resolve but also that of his supporters, with the MAGA movement now divided on how to respond.

Russia launched another massive missile and drone attack across Ukraine overnight into Sunday, killing 12 people, authorities here said, and casting further doubt on Moscow’s intentions in an already shaky peace process brokered by President Donald Trump.
