Zelensky Says Putin's Refusal of Ceasefire Complicates Ukraine Peace Efforts After White House Meeting With Trump; Lavrov Declines Putin-Zelensky Meeting

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has stated that Russia's refusal to agree to a ceasefire is complicating efforts to end the war and reach a peace deal. This stance by Russian President Vladimir Putin persists despite ongoing diplomatic efforts, including Zelensky's recent visit to the White House to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump. Following this meeting, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov declined to confirm any plans for a direct meeting between Putin and Zelensky. The Kremlin has remained vague on the possibility of such a meeting, and the longstanding and complex differences between the two leaders continue to hinder progress toward peace in Ukraine.
