Russia-Ukraine war

However, the PP leader has already warned that his party will not support this possibility if the government does not provide him with specific data and explanations.

The Ministry of Defence has explained that they have responded to the "attack by the Kiev regime on the headquarters of the Russian president in the Novgorod region on 29 December."

The Coalition of Volunteers meets in Paris to discuss the achievement of a ceasefire in Ukraine and the end of the war. The President of the Spanish Government also opens the door to the possibility of Spanish soldiers participating in a "peace mission" in Ukraine.

The US will participate for the first time in a full face-to-face summit with European leaders and Zelensky to find a way out of the war in Ukraine.

Zelenski has denied the attack and warned on his social media that Putin's goal is "to be an excuse to continue his attacks on Ukraine."

The meeting in Florida has represented a rapprochement between Washington and Kiev and the intention to involve the main European partners again. However, there are still substantial differences over security guarantees and the territorial situation in eastern Ukraine.

European leaders have backed the Ukrainian president before meeting with the White House president in Florida, and Canada has promised him million-dollar aid to rebuild the country.

Moscow has launched heavy attacks on the Ukrainian capital and the northeastern and southern regions, resulting in at least one death and 19 injuries.

International politics has left many questions on the table. Trump accuses Venezuela of supporting drug terrorism, is on the way to rearming Europe, and the ultra-right is booming in Germany, Austria, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Portugal and Spain. 

Zelenski spoke on the phone to the U.S. special envoy, who on Wednesday opened the door to the possibility of withdrawing troops from Donbas.

Initially, the Russian Instruction Committee has attributed the attack to Ukrainian intelligence.

He stressed that Russia is prepared to "end the conflict peacefully, based on the principles I set out before the Foreign Ministry last June" and "if the original causes of the conflict are eliminated."

For the time being, the authorities of the 27 will not use Russian assets to finance Ukraine. 

According to preliminary reports, Ukraine would be prepared to remain unincorporated into NATO if Russia provided security guarantees that would prevent further attacks.

Zelenski has explained that eight of the initial 28 points of the plan presented by the Donald Trump administration have been removed from the totally unacceptable eight points for Kiev during the meetings between Kiev and Washington in Geneva, Abu Dhabi and Miami.  

Ukraine's president has said, however, that there have been "small steps towards peace" and hopes to return the revised version of Trump's plan to the US soon. After the meeting, the Ukrainian president has travelled to Brussels, where he will have a meeting with von der Leyen, Costa and Rutte on Tuesday.

Ukraine's president will be in London on Monday to meet British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and then plan to travel to Brussels to meet with Europe's main allies. One of the main points of disagreement between Ukrainians and Russians is the handing over of the territory under Kiev's control Donbas to the Kremlin.

The two leaders have held a videoconference meeting with US negotiator Steve Witkoff, after which they have held talks with several European leaders to "coordinate" towards the end of the war and to link "long-term security guarantees."

The Russian president "will hold several meetings today behind closed doors to prepare the course of relations between Russia and the United States."
