“He is expecting my call when we are finished with this meeting,” he added. Trump also expressed hope that Monday’s summit could eventually lead to a trilateral meeting between Russia, Ukraine, and the U.S., adding that he believes Putin wants the war to end. “If we don’t have a trilateral, then the fighting continues,” he said. Zelenskyy and a group of European leaders arrived in Washington on Monday to meet with Trump and seek a resolution to the war in Ukraine, three days after the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska.
“At the same time, it is important to emphasize that it is Volodymyr Zelenskyy who personally decides what to wear,” she added. “The President is now in a state where every detail matters — his appearance, mood, emotions. Therefore, as the Leader of Ukraine, he chooses the image that best suits his role and moment.” Zelenskyy’s fashion choices, conveying solidarity with the Ukrainian armed forces and his war-ravaged country, have attracted both praise and criticism. When he visited the White House in February wearing a black polo emblazoned with the Ukrainian coat of arms, Trump greeted him by quipping sarcastically:…

According to a Ukrainian official familiar with the negotiations, Zelenskyy is eager to find out the details of potential security guarantees that could be included in an eventual deal. “We will not recognize the occupation. The situation regarding compromises is broader, but we will not withdraw our troops,” said another Ukrainian official familiar with negotiations and granted anonymity to discuss them. “We will find out what details of possible security guarantees and whether Trump seriously pressured Putin into a trilateral format where everything can really be discussed.” Trump and Putin said little following their meeting about the specifics of their…
Authorities said the most severe blaze is in Arganil, Coimbra, where more than 1,100 firefighters and 10 aircraft are working to contain it. Jorge Custodio, mayor of Pampilhosa da Serra, warned that several villages lie directly in the path of the advancing fire.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy and a cadre of European leaders meet with Donald Trump in the White House on Monday for critical talks on war with Russia, as the U.S. president puts the onus on Ukraine to reach a peace deal. After a high-stakes one-to-one with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday, Trump has ratcheted up pressure on Kyiv to cede land to Moscow. Zelenskyy has warned doing so would mean Ukraine loses key defensive positions and would be more vulnerable to Russian attacks in the future. Kyiv and its allies are pushing for security guarantees, to safeguard both the future of…
The removal was authorised by the town authorities and supervised by the Institute of National Remembrance, which enforces legislation banning communist-era symbols. Polish law prohibits the display of monuments or symbols deemed to promote communism in public spaces. Ploty Mayor Szymon Klimko said the monument represented “the worst period of post-war Poland,” leaving no doubt about the decision to take it down. The statue was the last of its kind remaining in the town.
Chief executives at Britain’s biggest companies, listed under the FTSE 100 blue-chip index, enjoyed another bumper year in the boardroom with pay packages soaring to record highs for the third year running. The surge has reignited concerns about corporate excess and inequality at a time when many households are still grappling with high living costs and stagnant wages. According to research published by the High Pay Centre, median pay for FTSE 100 bosses rose to £4.58 million (€5.22m) in the 2024-25 financial year, up from £4.29 million (€4.97m) the year before—a 6.8% increase and the highest level on record since…
“The Russians are using the symbols of the United States in their own terrorist, aggressive war,” Andriy Yermak, Zelenskyy’s right-hand man in Kyiv, fumed on Telegram. “Maximum audacity.” The propaganda video follows Russian President Vladimir Putin’s summit with U.S. President Donald Trump in Alaska over the weekend, which was widely criticized as a publicity win for the Kremlin. The red-carpeted affair, which saw the two leaders share an armored limousine, was Putin’s first face-to-face meeting with an American president since Moscow’s full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Zelenskyy and a squad of European leaders are heading to the White House…
Regional Governor Oleh Syniehubov said the victims included an 18-month-old and a 16-year-old, while six children were among the wounded. Emergency services reported strikes on a five-storey residential building that sparked fires across multiple floors, with two survivors rescued from rubble. Local resident Yevhenii Tymoshevsky described homes “where families live, children, youth, old people” being hit. The attack coincided with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s visit to the White House, where he and European leaders will join US President Donald Trump for discussions on ending the war.
