Putin accuses Europe

RUSSIA'S President Vladimir Putin has accused Ukraine's European allies of sabotaging United States-led efforts to end the war in Ukraine that have gained momentum in recent weeks.

“They don’t have a peace agenda, they're on the side of the war,” Mr Putin said, after speaking to an investment forum in Moscow and before he held talks with a US delegation led by envoy Steve Witkoff and President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner at the Kremlin.

The Russian leader accused Europe of amending peace proposals with “demands that are absolutely unacceptable to Russia”, thus “blocking the entire peace process” only to blame Russia for it.
