President Donald Trump and senior administration officials say negotiations held at the White House have produced the first tangible movement in more than three years toward ending the war between Russia and Ukraine. According to the White House press secretary, Russian, Ukrainian and European representatives “came to the table” under U.S. auspices, providing what the official called the clearest sign yet of a possible path to a cease-fire. Republicans on Capitol Hill echoed the assessment, describing Trump as a “peace president” whose strategy of “peace through strength” has revived stalled diplomacy. Neither the White House nor the negotiating parties have released details of any draft agreement or timeline for further talks. The administration said only that discussions would continue and that it remains focused on converting the latest progress into a durable settlement.
