CIA Director Proposes Trump-Putin-Zelensky Summit to Restart Peace Talks
CIA Director John Ratcliffe reportedly proposed a trilateral summit involving US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to revive stalled US-mediated peace talks on the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Ratcliffe met with Russian intelligence officials in Moscow but did not meet Putin directly. While Zelensky has supported such a meeting, Putin has rejected the idea, and Kyiv remains cautious about Russia's military intentions. Kremlin confirmed intelligence contacts but called it too early to assess impact on relations.
