Hopes of an imminent ceasefire in the war are fading, despite low-level talks between Ukraine and Russia in Istanbul last Friday.Although US President Donald Trump suggested the Vatican might mediate further talks, the Vatican said the idea of hosting, or even mediating talks was more a hope for now than any concrete plan.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he expected Russia to present its "broad terms that would allow us to move towards a ceasefire", however Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky has said Russia is merely "trying to buy time in order to continue its war and occupation".President Trump used a rally in Michigan to mark what he claimed had been "the most successful first 100 days of any administration in the history of our country, according to many, many people".He highlighted his efforts to tackle illegal immigration, to bring back jobs to the US and end what he called "the inflation nightmare".

Russian proxy forces began an insurgency there in 2014.
