Trump Praises Putin Ally’s ‘Historic Moment’ Remark

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi said trilateral negotiations between the US, Ukraine, and Russia could occur during the G20 summit week in Miami in December, though President Donald Trump said Putin's attendance remains undecided. Zelenskyi also reported that Ukraine cannot use drone-defense systems due to restrictions on Starlink satellite services. Negotiations are overshadowed by Trump's recent decision to purchase Russian diesel and lift sanctions, which Russian official Kirill Dmitriev called a "historic moment." Trump announced he would suspend sanctions and tariffs from the Lindsey Graham-named package, which would have imposed up to 100 percent import duties on Russian energy buyers. Ukraine has reportedly run out of Patriot interceptor missiles, and The Telegraph reported Elon Musk proposed slowing the Starshield system in Ukraine.
