Putin Calls for 'Direct Talks' with Ukraine

Leaders of France, Germany, the UK and Poland - part of the so-called "coalition of the willing" - were hosted by Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky and took part in a joint news conference during the trip.

They warned that "new and massive" sanctions would be imposed on Russia's energy and banking sectors should Putin not agree to the unconditional 30-day ceasefire "in the air, at sea and on land".

"Pope Leo XIV called for a ceasefire in Gaza, the return of all hostages and peace in Ukraine during his first Sunday noon blessing as the bishop of Rome.

Leo said he carries "in my heart the sufferings of the beloved Ukrainian people," calling for "genuine, just and lasting peace as soon as possible," for prisoners to be freed and for children to be returned to their families.

He said there should be an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and called for humanitarian aid to be provided to the "exhausted civilian population" and for all hostages to be freed."
