The proposed talks come as Washington eases economic pressure on Moscow while pressing Ukraine to halt strikes on Russian oil infrastructure, raising concerns in Kyiv that the Kremlin is securing concessions without making any of its own.

Russia's President Vladimir Putin has reportedly proposed a three-way summit with US President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping next month to negotiate an end to the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, according to US media.

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha warned on Monday that such a meeting would only encourage Putin to continue the war, while the European Commission questioned Moscow's willingness to negotiate an end to the conflict.


In his post, Trump again threatened to "soon finish the job" against Iran "unless they change their ways, rapidly," but added he might not want to if Netanyahu loses the election.

"If Israel has the wrong Leader, which would be anyone other than Bibi, America will have to do this work ourselves, and I am not inclined to do so," Trump said.

He said Netanyahu had been "Strong, Brave, and Brilliant in the face of tremendous opposition, including that coming from even Israel, itself."
