We offered Putin to meet anywhere where real decisions to end the war could be made. He does not want it.
We discussed with the U.S. and France the possibility of a meeting with Russia around the G7, with all democratic nations represented. Putin does not want it.
Yesterday, we discussed with President Trump that such a meeting could be organized in the U.S. – in a format where Putin would find it much harder to refuse at least to President Trump.
We will see what comes of it. If Russia refuses this chance as well, additional pressure will be needed.

There has been distressing news about the war in #Ukraine, which keeps expanding. There are many innocent victims, rescue workers killed, and churches and cultural heritage sites devastated by flames. I am close to all those who mourn their loved ones, to the wounded, and to those who continue to serve life with courage amid violence. Let us #PrayTogether that this war may end. Let us ask the Lord to open paths of dialogue, extinguish hatred, and make a just and lasting #Peace possible.
"The kids came running in with tears in their eyes... Can you imagine how traumatic this is for them?" - a coach on the Russian strike on an equestrian sports school in Sumy region.
Three horses were killed, with one still trapped under the rubble. Among them was a horse that had recently returned from a national competition after winning an award.
More than ten other animals were injured.
Poor horses. Poor kids. Poor staff. This is heartbreaking.

The Lavra in Kyiv 🇺🇦 is a jewel of Christianity of profound cultural and historical significance. There is simply no way Putin 🇷🇺 can justify tonight’s strike against it.
In May, Ukraine recorded the highest number of civilian casualties from russian attacks since 2022, the UN reported.
At least 274 civilians were killed and 1,763 were wounded, as russia intensified strikes on Ukrainian cities.
This is not war. This is terrorism.
The primary responsibility lies with russia and the terrorist regime in the Kremlin, which continues its genocidal campaign against Ukraine.
But responsibility does not end there.
I also blame the silent supporters and enablers of this evil.
Perhaps the most significant among them is Donald Trump.
He promised to “end the war in 24 hours,” and many believed him.
Instead, he gave Putin a blank check. He invited this war criminal to the United States of America. And now his portrait hangs in the White House.
So no surprise, since Trump’s return, russian missile and drone attacks on Ukraine have skyrocketed.
Trump’s pro-russian rhetoric, refusal to support Ukraine, and repeated praise of Putin have emboldened the Kremlin to escalate its assault.
The United States halted military aid to Ukraine.
Ukraine is now critically short of air defense systems. Civilians are dying because they cannot be adequately protected.
U.S. intelligence support was curtailed, weakening Ukraine’s ability to defend itself and allowing russian forces to regain territory and advance further.
Instead of standing with Ukraine, Trump handed a lifeline to the russian economy. By removing restrictions on russian oil, billions of dollars are flowing back into the Kremlin’s war machine.
That means more missiles. More drones. More dead Ukrainians.
Trump has become an enabler of russian terrorism. History will remember this.
Today, with the full-scale war now lasting as long as World War I, it’s worth remembering how russia began it.
📽 These 49 seconds show what russia did to Ukraine in just the first three months — a relentless campaign of missile terror against an entire nation.
😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
Lets make this viral again 👇
One of the common responses to this from MAGA is to bring up the “summer of love” protest.
Yeah, that was under Trump’s “leadership” too. That’s not the gotcha that yall think it is 🤦♂️
💔🇺🇦🙏
Devastatingly heartbreaking
Murdered by russia
These children are what russia call a military target
There are hundreds of them, maybe thousands
We will never know the true figure
Still the world looks away. . don't be one of those people
The least we owe them is to be their voice 😟🕯️
This is Oleh.
He was 2.
russia decided that was enough.
A missile hit his home, killing Oleh, his mother, and 14 neighbors.
He never saw peace.
Never started school.
Never had a future.
His life ended before it began.
Why doesn't the media talk about the DR of Congo?
We are deeply concerned by Ebola outbreak in Congo
Congo is bleeding, It has not ended over 5 million people are dead and millions especially 40,000 children are in labor camps and cobalt mines around the country
The world must remember that we live in a society, not an economy
This is not World War II footage.
This is Toretsk, Ukraine — and it’s not as far away as you think.
A city that once had over 30,000 residents. Now almost completely erased.
There is no excuse for this. None.
