US resumes intelligence sharing with Ukraine, but peace terms remain uncertain

The United States has resumed sharing intelligence with Ukraine to help anticipate Russian missile attacks, President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed after meeting US envoy Steve Witkoff in Oslo. He called the restored information flow "excellent" and said it can save lives. The resumption follows a week of tensions, including a temporary intelligence pause and restrictions on Starshield satellite services that hampered Ukrainian drone operations. Witkoff also met Zelensky with Jared Kushner and European officials, while Zelensky discussed security guarantees with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Witkoff is now preparing to meet Vladimir Putin in Russia, with Washington aiming for direct US-Russia-Ukraine negotiations. Zelensky rejected any summit excluding Kyiv, insisting "nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine," while Europe fears Washington and Moscow may set peace terms without fully considering Ukrainian demands.
