Vladimir Putin warned US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner that Russia would target any foreign troops deployed to Ukraine, ruling out peacekeepers as a "continuation of war" and insisting on full control of four annexed regions. Volodymyr Zelenskyy accuses Elon Musk's Starlink of "helping the Russians kill more Ukrainians" amid frontline speed limits, while European leaders meeting in Dublin decline for now to name a single negotiator, with Witkoff saying European representatives will join the next round of talks.
