Trump suspends major Russia sanctions; Moscow hails 'historic moment,' Zelensky warns it rewards Putin

President Trump has ordered the suspension of major sanctions against Russia, a move Moscow called a "historic moment" while Ukrainian President Zelensky said it rewards and encourages Putin. The suspension follows Trump's decision to limit Ukraine's access to satellite systems and intelligence, which Italian Defense Minister Crosetto called a "grave error" that risks prolonging the war. Ukraine is awaiting official confirmation from the Pentagon and SpaceX on restoring the Starshield system, whose connection speed remains unstable. Nine bipartisan US senators have requested an investigation into the Starlink and Starshield service interruptions, citing potential danger to American personnel. Meanwhile, Russia stated it has no contact with Italy due to its "anti-Russian" policy, and reports suggest Moscow may seek a prisoner exchange following the detention of a Japanese journalist.
