AI Summary

long article 4 min

Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia of sabotaging peace talks and planning attacks on Kyiv government buildings after the Kremlin claimed Ukraine attacked Vladimir Putin's residence with drones. Zelenskyy dismissed the claim as a lie, anticipating a scandal following his meeting with Donald Trump, where they discussed a peace plan. Sergei Lavrov stated Russia would review its negotiating position and retaliate against Ukraine, claiming 91 drones were shot down and accusing Ukraine of "state terrorism." Zelenskyy said the US offered Ukraine security guarantees for 15 years, subject to votes in both countries' parliaments, but the future of the Donbas region remains unresolved. He emphasized the need for international monitors to ensure security in a postwar Ukraine.
