U.S. President Donald Trumpis expected to speak with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putinthis week on ways to end the three-year war in Ukraine, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff told CNN on Sunday after returning from what he described as a "positive" meeting with Putin in Moscow.

Special envoy Steve Witkoff said he expects the discussion to be "positive" and a ceasefire to come soon in the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s response to a US-proposed ceasefire in Ukraine is “not good enough,” Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer said, after hosting a virtual summit aimed at drumming up support for Kyiv and piling pressure on Russia.
