The president of the United States, Donald Trump, celebrated separate calls with Zensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday. The two parties also with the first negotiations of about three years in Istanbul on Friday, but the conversations could not produce a truce.
Zensky said Putin had sent “empty heads” to the negotiating table and accused Moscow of using conversations to buy time.

A message from Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We face unprecedented challenges. The Office of the Attorney General of Russia has appointed Moscow Times as an “indifferent” organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our previous unfair labeling as a “foreign agent.”
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim that our work “discredits the decisions of Russian leadership.” We see things differently: we strive to provide precise and impartial reports about Russia.
We, the Moscow Times journalists, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
