Since the summer, Ukraine’s long-range drone campaign has ramped up dramatically, pounding infrastructure across Russia and testing Moscow’s air defenses.
President Trump has called for Russia and Ukraine to “stop where they are” and quit fighting after concluding talks in Washington Friday with Zelenskyy.
Trump is now offering assurances that U.S. troops won’t be sent to help defend Ukraine against Russia after seeming to leave open the possibility Monday.
Zelenskyy reiterated Ukraine would not withdraw from territories it controls because it would only serve as a springboard for a future Russian invasion.
