Ukraine suffered another bombardment of aerial attacks from Russia Friday night into Saturday morning as successful talks toward a peace deal to end the war appear far from happening. There were 114 aerial attacks on Ukraine via drones and missiles overnight,

However, Trump’s rhetoric surrounding Russia, traditionally sympathetic to Putin’s aims, has shifted in recent weeks as his attempts to end the war continue to be thwarted.At the weekend, Trump warned that if Putin threatened to conquer all of Ukraine he would bring about the “downfall” of Russia.

Moscow has expanded military recruitment and boosted weapons production. Peace could jeopardize the resulting economic gains.
