Peace process in the war of Ukraine has stalled yet again.

“When we canceled the meeting with President Putin, it didn’t feel right to me, it didn’t feel like we were going to get to the place we have to get, so I canceled it, but we’ll do it in the future.”
This move comes on the same day that the US imposed new sanctions on Russia, targeting two major oil companies.

But some developments de-escalate tensions: for instance, Trump announced that the US will NOT send Tomahawk missiles to Kiev.
The reason is well-known: Ukrainian troops can’t fire the missiles due to a lack of training.
And Trump made it clear that the US will NOT do that.
Trump says US WON’T be launching Tomahawks for Zelensky
Adds it takes a year to learn how to use them
So ‘the only way a Tomahawk is gonna be shot is if we shot it’
‘And we’re NOT gonna do that’ https://t.co/OhxBQzsolf pic.twitter.com/hadCePLOPo
