‘No way' Putin will accept US-brokered ceasefire with Ukraine
Sky News US analyst Michael Ware dismisses hopes that Russian President Vladimir Putin will accept a ceasefire with Ukraine proposed by US President Donald Trump. 'While President Trump's Special Envoy Steve Witkoff was in Moscow, having met President Putin, Russia then sent a military strike into Ukraine that killed two civilians,' Mr Ware said.
