Russia Ukraine War: An important meeting took place between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday. After this meeting, hopes have increased after the end of Ukraine-Russia war.

The leaders have said that they have come very close to an agreement to end the war, although there are still one or two issues which are very complicated.

‘Very close to the end of the war’

After the meeting, US President Donald Trump said that his meeting was very good. He told that many important issues were discussed openly in the meeting. Trump says he is confident that the Russia-Ukraine war is now very close to ending, perhaps closer than ever. He told that after this meeting he and President Zelensky have also talked to European leaders and considerable progress has been made towards stopping the war. Trump described this war as one of the deadliest conflicts after the Second World War.

He said that 91 percent of the people of Ukraine want this war to end. Russia also wants the same and the whole world wants this war to stop now.

‘Putin wants the war to end’

Trump told that before this meeting he had talked on the phone with Russian President Putin. Regarding Russian President Putin, Trump said that he saw Putin in a different light today. According to Trump, Putin himself wants the war to end and he placed a lot of emphasis on this. Trump said that he has confidence in Putin.

Regarding the meeting with Putin and Zelensky, Trump said that he thinks it will definitely happen, just waiting for the right time. He reiterated that Putin also wants such a meeting and he himself has said this emphatically. On the possibility of going to Ukraine, Trump said that if this stops the war and the lives of about 25 thousand people can be saved every month, then he is definitely ready to go to Ukraine.

‘Putin showed generous attitude’

US President Donald Trump said that Russia also wants Ukraine to move forward and succeed. He said, ‘This may sound a bit strange, but when I was talking to President Putin on the phone, he showed a very liberal attitude towards Ukraine. This also includes providing energy, electricity and other essential commodities at very low prices. “Many good and positive things have come out of the phone call with Putin today.”

Zelensky said this

After the meeting, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that there were good and detailed talks between the two countries on all important issues. Zelensky said, ‘We discussed all aspects. 90 percent consensus has been reached on America’s 20-point peace plan. 100 percent agreement has been reached on America-Ukraine security guarantee. The Ukrainian President said that talks have also been reached on military aspects. Along with this, the plan is being finalized. Apart from this, the sequence of further action has also been discussed.

He said that both sides agree that security guarantees are a very important step towards achieving lasting peace. In this direction, the teams of both the countries will continue to work keeping all aspects in mind. Zelensky reiterated that Ukraine is fully ready for peace.

Meeting will be held in Washington in January

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that in January, Trump will hold an important meeting with the leaders of Ukraine and Europe in Washington DC.

A major political step has come to light amid the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin has confirmed that US officials will visit Moscow next week. This visit will be for talks on the 28-point peace proposal presented by US President Donald Trump last week. Putin gave this information while talking to the media after his three-day visit to Kyrgyzstan.

Russia ready for Trump’s proposal
Putin said that the peace proposal presented by America can become the basis for negotiations. He said, ‘We are ready for detailed talks on every point of this proposal.’ However, he also made it clear that Ukraine will first have to withdraw its troops from those areas which Russia claims as its own. Putin warned that if the Ukrainian army does not retreat, Russia will do so with the help of weapons.

Ukraine’s counterattack – ‘Peace will not be decided by Russian threats’
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky rejected Putin’s statement and said that peace will not be decided by Russia’s threats or warnings, but on international terms. Zelensky said in his address, ‘Together with the American representatives, we are taking forward the peace points established in Geneva and working towards security.’

Big preparation from America
According to sources, US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff will reach Moscow next week, while US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll is preparing to visit Kiev soon. In a recently leaked audio, it was claimed that Witkoff was advising Russia on how to negotiate to influence Trump. Commenting on this, Putin said in a lighter tone that Vitkoff seems to be a sensible person. They have to create an environment for dialogue.

Uneasiness in Europe, efforts to join talks
The security of European countries is considered to be in danger due to the Russia-Ukraine war. For this reason, now many European leaders are also trying to participate in this dialogue so that their role in the peace process can be decided. Putin claimed that Russia will neither attack NATO nor Europe. He termed all such allegations as lies. However, he reiterated that Ukraine should not join NATO and there should not be Western military bases on its territory.

Recently, Russia tested a missile that can fly in the air for unlimited time. Russia has received a threat amid this new weapon system. Belgian Defense Minister Theo Franken has said that if Russia tried to attack Brussels, NATO would completely destroy Moscow in response. Speaking to the Belgian magazine Humo, he said that he has no fear about an attack by Russian President Vladimir Putin, because such a move would be an attack on the heart of NATO and then ‘we will erase Moscow from the world map.

Putin will not attack nuclear – Franken claims
Franken said that Putin knows that Russia cannot use nuclear weapons, because doing so would result in retaliation from NATO. He said, if Russia launches a nuclear attack, it will mean the end of Russia from the world.

Concern expressed over Russia’s ‘grey zone strategy’
The Belgian minister also said that he is more threatened by Russia’s ‘secret methods’. According to him, Russia can destabilize NATO countries in Little Green Men-like ways, such as provoking Russian-speaking minorities in Estonia and trying to take over there. This was a reference to the strategy Russia used during the occupation of Crimea in 2014.

Russian Embassy said – provocative and irresponsible statement
The Russian Embassy in Belgium issued a statement on Tuesday calling Franken’s comments “provocative and far from reality.” However, Franken defended his statement on social media, saying that his words were taken out of context.

Concern increases due to increasing drone incidents in Europe
In recent weeks, there have been incidents of several drones and aircraft belonging to Russia entering NATO and EU airspace. Last month, about 20 Russian drones entered Poland, some of which were shot down by NATO fighter jets. Belgium on Wednesday launched an investigation into the drone intrusion, the second such incident this month.

EU countries built ‘drone wall’
The EU member countries of Eastern Europe have recently decided to build a ‘drone wall’ to strengthen air security. Analysts believe that Russia is testing NATO’s unity and response capability through these incidents. However, the Kremlin has refused to consider these incidents as deliberate provocations.

It has been almost four years since the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. When Russia attacked in 2022, there was tremendous enthusiasm and solidarity among the people of Ukraine. Lakhs of citizens had joined the army to protect the country. Someone from every house took charge. At that time it seemed that every citizen of Ukraine had become a soldier, but with the passage of time the situation has completely changed. Now this war has not become a symbol of pride for the people, but of fear and helplessness.

Now forcibly recruiting people

According to the report of British newspaper The Sun, more than 1 million people voluntarily joined the Ukrainian army in the initial months of the war. But as the war dragged on, people’s enthusiasm waned. To avoid recruitment, many people even started buying medical certificates so that they could be declared ‘unfit’. When the government cracked down on corruption, it abolished medical commissions. Despite this, now the army is forced to recruit forcibly.

people being caught and recruited on the streets

According to reports, now army personnel stand at checkpoints in many cities of Ukraine. Any male aged between 18 to 60 years who passes through there, his identity is checked. If he comes under the scope of recruitment, he is directly sent to the recruitment centre. In many cases, soldiers force people into minibuses. In Ukraine this process is now being called ‘Basification’.

Dissatisfaction is increasing in the society

Now Ukrainian society is divided into two parts. On one side there are those who are fighting on the front, and on the other side there are those who are living a normal life in the cities. Female officer Yulia Mikitenko says, “When I see people roaming around with their families, I get angry. My soldiers do not get this freedom.”

Lakhs injured, thousands deaths

According to government figures, more than 45,000 soldiers have been killed so far and about 3.8 lakh have been injured. This long war has broken the courage of the people of Ukraine. Now there is a need for soldiers, but people have become afraid of recruitment. What was once a symbol of patriotism has now become a tiresome and painful compulsion for the people.

US President Donald Trump recently claimed that he talked to Prime Minister Narendra Modi about buying Russian oil. Trump further said that PM Modi assured him that India will stop buying Russian oil. Now the Ministry of External Affairs has denied this claim.

The Indian Foreign Ministry made it clear on Thursday that there was no telephonic conversation between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Donald Trump yesterday (Wednesday). External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said in the weekly briefing, ‘I have no knowledge of any conversation or phone call between Prime Minister Modi and President Trump yesterday.’

Trump had claimed to have talked to PM Modi
This statement has come after the recent remarks of US President Trump. Trump had said that Prime Minister Modi assured him that India will no longer buy oil from Russia. Trump described it as ‘a big step’, which will help in increasing global pressure on Moscow in view of the Ukraine crisis.

Trump said- ‘Modi is my friend’
When Trump was asked late on Wednesday night whether he considered India a reliable partner, he said, ‘Yes, absolutely.’ He (PM Modi) is my friend. We have a very good relationship. I did not like that India was buying oil from Russia. He assured me today that now India will not buy oil from Russia. This is a big step. Now we will have to do the same with China.

MEA reiterated India’s policy
In response to these comments, MEA had already clarified that India’s energy policy is made keeping in mind only the national interest and the safety of Indian consumers. The ministry said that India is a large importer of oil and gas and its priority has always been to ensure stable prices and secure supply, for which imports are done from diverse sources.

Trouble may now increase for Russia, who attacked Ukraine continuously. US President Donald Trump announced on Sunday (September 7, 2025) that he is set to start the second phase of Russia sanctions. Donald Trump’s statement indicates that he is very close to tightening the restrictions on buyers importing crude oil from Moscow or Russia amid the increasing resentment over the war in Ukraine.

Donald Trump has threatened Russia before new sanctions

US President Donald Trump has already threatened to impose further ban on Russia for continuing continuous attack on Ukraine several times. However, in the meantime, he did not take any major steps during this period.

According to the Reuters report, it is clear from his latest statement that he is now moving towards taking more aggressive stance against Russia and President Vladimir Putin. However, he has not yet clearly stated that he is fully committed to implement this decision or what will be involved in the second phase of restrictions.

After all, what is Trump’s displeasure about what,

When a journalist at the White House of America asked President Donald Trump if he was ready to implement the second phase of restrictions on Russia, the US President said, “Yes, I am completely ready.”

In fact, US President Donald Trump is very angry that he has failed to stop the war between Ukraine and Russia for more than three years even after trying so much, while in January 2025, while assuming the US presidential post, he claimed that he would end the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine as soon as possible.

Russian attacks in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, once again created an atmosphere of panic. According to Ukraine’s Air Force, Russia fired at least 805 drones and 13 missiles on Ukraine from late night to Sunday morning, which is considered to be the biggest air attack ever. Official sources have confirmed that at least four people died and several dozen were injured in these attacks. The main government building of the cabinet of ministers located in the capital also suffered serious damage. Firefighters were busy extinguishing the fire in high buildings and there was an atmosphere of chaos across the city.

In response to the Russian attack, Ukraine targeted the energy source and attacked the Druzba Oil Pipeline in the Bryansk region, which faced a lot of damage. This information was given by Ukraine’s Drone Forces Commander Robert Browddy. Earlier, Russia attacked Ukraine and caused havoc. Air alert was played across the country at 6:06 am. Citizens were advised to immediately go to safe places. After the attack, the helicopters kept hovering in the sky of Kiev and tried to extinguish the fire by dropping water.

In which areas of Kyiv, havoc

Apart from Kyiv, Russia also targeted other areas of Ukraine. This includes Drypatros, where a 54 -year -old man died and several people were injured. Apart from this, another person died on the outskirts of Putiville city of Sumi and a 9 -year -old child is also included in the injured. At least 15 people were injured in the drone attack on Saturday evening in Zaporijia, out of which four had to be hospitalized. Pictures of these attacks were shared on social media in which the damaged residential buildings are clearly visible.

Shock to peace efforts

These attacks took place when 24 countries led by France and Britain have talked about joining an international monitoring force to end the war. Kiev says that such security agreements will be effective only when Western soldiers will join it, but Russian President Vladimir Putin has given a clear warning that if Western soldiers were posted in Ukraine, they will be considered a valid goals. Meanwhile, despite the efforts of US President Donald Trump, no concrete progress has been made in peace talks.

Ukraine’s President Zelanski has reached Washington for a visit to America. He has given information about this on X (East Twitter). He said that I am meeting President Trump. We will also talk to European leaders. I am grateful to @Potus for the invitation. We all have a strong desire to end this war quickly and reliably and peace should be permanent. It is not as it was as years ago, when Ukraine was forced to leave Crimea and a part of our former Donbas and Putin used it as a platform for a new attack.

Ukraine’s President Zelanski further said that in 1994 Ukraine was given the so -called security guarantee, but he did not work. Of course, Crimea should not have been left then, such as Ukrainians did not leave Kiev, Odessa or Kharkiv after 2022. Ukrainians are fighting for their land, for their freedom. Now our soldiers have succeeded in Donnetsk and Sumi areas. I believe that we will protect Ukraine, will give effective guarantee of security.

I have already Arrived in washington, Tomorrow I Am Meeting With President Trump. Tomorrow we are also spending with european leaders. I am grateful to @Potus For the invitation. We all share a strong desire to end this war quickly and reliable. And peace must be lasting. Not…

Russia will have to end this war-Jalensky

Let me tell you that before the US visit of Zelansky, there was a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Trump in Alaska, in which there was a discussion in relation to the Russia-Ukraine war. However, no decision was taken.

US President Donald Trump has announced to send help after an increase in Russia’s attacks in Ukraine. Trump has said that Russia’s attacks in Ukraine cities have increased significantly. In such a situation, Vashington is going to send additional weapons to Ukraine through NATO. The weapons sent by the US include Patriot Air Defense System.

In an interview to NBC News, US President Donald Trump said, “We are going to send NATO to Patriot Air Defense System. After that NATO will take him further to Ukraine.” Apart from this, Trump also said that the help of additional weapons being sent by the US to Ukraine will be paid by NATO.

Trump takes steps on pleading for Jailonski’s help

US President Donald Trump took this step after pleading for the help of Ukraine President Volodimir Jailonsky. In fact, Russia has so far carried out attacks in many cities of Ukraine through 728 drones in this week. The Ukrainian President appealed to help the air defense system after a shower of this record -breaking drones made by Russia.

The month of June for Ukraine is the deadliest

Ukrainian President Volodimir Jailonsky demanded 10 Patriot Air Defense System amidst the increase in the death toll in the country, calling him the real protector of life. At the same time, according to the United Nations, the month of June has been called the deadliest for Ukraine amid the war with Russia for more than three years. In June this, 232 civilians died and more than 1300 people were injured in Ukraine.

Donald Trump’s strategy changed

US President Donald Trump took over in January this year, ordered to reduce the military help being sent to Ukraine, but his recent statements also clarify his strategic change.

The US had stopped shipments of many other important weapons including Patriot Interceptor missiles and accurate attacks, including artillery shells last week. Trump’s move increased the concern in Kiev, because his air defense reserve was decreasing dangerously.
