US envoys meet Putin at Kremlin as Zelensky sees negotiation window
US envoys arrived at the Kremlin Thursday for talks with Vladimir Putin, as Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said a "window of opportunity" exists for a negotiation breakthrough before 2027. European Council President António Costa accused Russia of destroying Europe's security architecture through its invasion of Ukraine. Zelensky urged Europe to stay "very attentive" to US-Russia discussions, saying they concern a new security framework for Europe, not just Ukraine. A Russian drone attack on Kyiv killed one person and wounded eight. Zelensky also reported renewed restrictions on SpaceX's Starshield military satellite system in Ukraine. NATO chief Mark Rutte said the US, Ukraine, and Europe are "aligned and united" after Abu Dhabi talks, adding Russia must show willingness to cooperate.
