Putin says Russia will achieve all goals militarily if Ukraine does not accept

President Vladimir Putin has said Russia is ready to fight to achieve all its objectives if Ukraine does not accept a deal. He made the comments in China after taking part in a major military parade that was seen as a challenge to Donald Trump and the US-dominated world order. The US president has tried to persuade Putin to end the war, but the Russian leader, while appreciating Trump's "sincere desire", has so far failed to do so.

During a visit to Kiev, UK Defence Secretary John Healey told the BBC that Trump had brought Putin to the negotiating table but had not ruled out putting more pressure on him. Countries like the UK, he said, were prepared to “put additional economic pressure on Putin… and provide additional aid to Ukraine so that they can continue the war”. Trump pulled Putin out of international isolation last month when he hosted him in Alaska. He has also tried to persuade Putin to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

"I have never ruled out the possibility of such a meeting. But does it make any sense? Let's see," Putin said on Wednesday.

He added that any such meeting required preparation to yield results and that Zelensky could always go to Moscow to meet him, an idea “consciously unacceptable,” the Ukrainian foreign minister stressed. The Ukrainian president has highlighted Putin’s refusal to meet as a way to urge Trump to impose sanctions on Russia and strengthen Ukraine’s defenses.
