Trump says Russia and Ukraine both want a deal, Europe to be involved

President Trump stated that Russia and Ukraine, for the first time, both want to reach an agreement to end the war, describing it as a very large deal that will involve Europe. He cited phone calls and scheduled meetings on the matter for Monday and Tuesday. Ukrainian President Zelensky expressed readiness to meet Trump in any country except Moscow, while urgently requesting air and missile defenses. He warned that a proposed US security agreement is potentially dangerous, stating Ukraine does not want a "Yalta 2" division of Europe. The statements come amid continued hostilities, with Russia launching ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv and Ukraine striking targets in Russian regions, including a refinery and a military factory.
