Article Summary

Ukraine is strongly criticizing plans for a summit between the U.S., Russia, and China that would exclude Ukrainian leaders, calling it a move that rewards Russian aggression and boosts Putin’s image as a global leader. The article highlights concerns that the U.S. under Trump is shifting toward Russia, cutting deals and delaying military support to Ukraine, while Russia continues attacking civilians. Ukraine’s foreign minister argues that peace talks must include Kyiv and that letting Putin sit with world leaders legitimizes his war crimes.
