firstpost.com —

President Donald Trump said he met with senior Russian officials in Washington on Thursday, hinting at a "big, beautiful deal" to end the Russia-Ukraine war that could involve all of Europe. Trump referenced meeting with "the head person of Russia," apparently envoy Kirill Dmitriev, without disclosing details. His son-in-law Jared Kushner said US, NATO, and European partners held "productive" discussions, with further talks planned in Abu Dhabi next week. Trump faced criticism for suggesting Ukraine shares blame for civilian deaths. Dmitriev thanked First Lady Melania Trump for brokering a six-day truce in Oleshky, while Ukrainian officials praised her humanitarian role and urged continued de-escalation efforts.
