But Putin rejected the deal and chose to keep continuing the war with Ukraine, as reported by RBC.

He continues to cover the country with a war of annihilation,' as quoted by TVP World. During an interview with Time magazine in April, Trump himself said that Crimea 'will stay with Russia' under any proposed peace deal, as reported by TVP World.

Apart from Crimea, Russia also currently partially occupies Ukraine's Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, after formally annexing them, as reported by TVP World. Trump's Deadline: 50 Days for Peace or Sanctions Trump has also expressed frustration with Putin due to the lack of progress in peace talks on Ukraine, and even promised to impose tough economic measures against Russia if the Kremlin continues to stall, as reported by RBC. The US president reportedly gave Putin 50 days to reach an agreement, and when he was later asked about this strict deadline, Trump said things would go "too badly" for Russia if it failed to meet the timeline, according to the report. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has also pointed out that Trump is losing patience with Putin over the deadlocked talks on Ukraine and said that the US president has not ruled out imposing restrictions on Russia even earlier than the 50-day deadline, as per the RBC report. Russia Facing Mounting Losses Meanwhile, Meinl-Reisinger also dismissed the claims that Russia holds the momentum on the battlefield, saying Moscow is 'suffering enormous losses,' as quoted in the report. She pointed out that, 'At some point, the coffins will pile up in Russia. In addition, there is the disastrous economic situation," as quoted in the report. Meinl-Reisinger added, 'It is becoming increasingly difficult for the Kremlin to continue this war. Putin knows that he is running out of time. That is why he is now waging the war with such brutal intensity,' as quoted in the report. As per Ukrainian estimates, Russia has lost more than 1 million soldiers since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, which has forced the Kremlin to fill the gaps with foreign recruits, including troops from North Korea, as reported by TVP World. FAQs Did Trump offer Crimea to Russia? ? Austria's foreign minister says he did. Trump allegedly floated the idea of handing over Crimea and parts of eastern Ukraine to Putin as part of a secret peace proposal. Why did Putin reject the deal? According to Austrian officials, Putin has no interest in peace and is committed to continuing the war regardless of concessions.

‘Tragic and sudden death': UC Berkeley professor slain in Greece while visiting family
A UC Berkeley business professor was shot and killed in Greece this month while visiting family, according to his brother and international media reports. Przemyslaw Jeziorski, 43, was slain on July 4 in Agia Paraskevi, a suburb of Athens, as he approached the home where his children lived. Jeziorski's assailant, described as a masked man, fled on foot, and police arrived at the scene soon after. On a WhyDonate, a European fundraising platform similar to GoFundMe, Jeziorski's brother called him 'the victim of a terrible crime' whose perpetrator remains at large. 'Our family is heartbroken, and we are doing everything we can to ensure that justice is served,' Lukasz Jeziorski wrote, describing his brother as 'a loving father to two young children and a beloved professor' at Berkeley, and a 'leading scholar in marketing science, industrial organization and data analytics.' The brother wrote that his family is raising money for legal fees and to transfer Jeziorski's remains to Poland. On his Facebook page, Lukasz Jeziorski said his brother's killing had taken place just a month after their father's death on June 4. 'We barely started to get over it,' he wrote, 'and already on July 4th another tragedy occurred.' According to a report on the Polish news site TVP World, Jeziorski had two children with his ex-wife, a Greek woman he had met in the U.S. He had traveled to Greece to attend a hearing concerning the custody of his children, according to reports, leading to speculation that the shooting was a contract killing. In response to the tragedy, Haas School of Business Dean Jennifer Chatman released a statement calling Jeziorski a 'beloved member' of the school's marketing faculty. 'I am heartbroken by the tragic and sudden death of Professor Przemyslaw Jeziorski,' Chatman said in a statement to the Daily Californian. 'While authorities are investigating what happened, our immediate focus is on supporting our community during this difficult period. My heart goes out to Przemek's family and loved ones. We will miss him.' The school did not immediately respond to a Chronicle request for comment. The killing prompted colleagues to post memorials on social media, including one from longtime friend Olga Adamkiewicz, who said she'd known Jeziorski for nearly 40 years. 'When I saw the first text message, I thought it was some kind of joke,' she wrote in a July 8 Facebook post. 'In Europe, where access to guns seems very difficult, these are not the situations we are prepared for in the first place.' Adamkiewicz described Jeziorski as a man full of 'passion, dreams and with a head full of ideas.' 'His scientific career speaks for itself,' she wrote. A Polish national, Jeziorski, who went by 'Przemek,' studied at the Warsaw School of Economics, where he obtained his bachelor's degree in economics. Jeziorski then studied at the University of Arizona and the University of Chicago, and obtained a doctorate in economics from Stanford University in 2010, according to his curriculum vitae. He went on to teach at the University of Arizona and Johns Hopkins University before returning to Berkeley's Haas School of Business as a marketing professor in 2018, according to his CV. Jeziorski also co-created Keybee, an app connecting owners of short-term rental properties with service providers.

Passerby visits Poland river to see low water level — and finds medieval weapon
After hearing reports of historically low water levels at a river in Poland, a man decided to see for himself. The excursion took an unexpected turn when he noticed something in the water — and found a medieval weapon. Andrzej Korpikiewicz took a scooter to the outskirts of Warsaw to see the Vistula River on the afternoon of July 1, he told McClatchy News on July 4. While walking along the riverbank, he noticed a rusty metal object in the shallow water. At first, Korpikiewicz thought it might be 'a large washed-up hinge,' according to the Polish news outlet TVP World. He pulled it out, started cleaning off the mud and uncovered a cross-like design, Korpikiewicz said. Very quickly, he realized this could be something special. Korpikiewicz took the object home and wrapped it in wet clothes to protect it, he told McClatchy News. The next day, he handed it over to heritage officials. 'We (were) met with great surprise and excitement,' Korpikiewicz told TVP World. The Warsaw Conservator of Monuments identified Korpikiewicz's find as a well-preserved medieval sword, according to a July 2 Facebook post. Photos show the rusty, orange-brown weapon. The blade has a rectangular tip, and the handle ends in a spherical bulb. Officials did not provide measurements of the sword, but a photo from Korpikiewicz of the item next to a measuring stick shows it to be about 32 inches long. The medieval sword was given to a specialty conservation workshop for further preservation and analysis, Science in Poland said in a July 4 news release. Its origin and exact age remains a mystery. 'People spend years looking for this sort of thing, but I came across it completely by accident,' Korpikiewicz told TVP World. In Warsaw, the Vistula River has dropped to record low levels in recent days due to a heatwave and lack of rainfall, Reuters said in a July 4 article. Some meteorologists expect the water level to continue dropping. As of Friday, July 4, the river's water level in Warsaw was 18 cm (about 7 inches), below its previous low record of 20 cm (about 7.9 inches), according to data from the country's Institute of Meteorology and Water Management. Warsaw is the capital city of Poland. Google Translate was used to translate the news release from Science in Poland, Facebook post from the Warsaw Conservator of Monuments and comments from Andrzej Korpikiewicz.

Mysterious, 66-year-old handwritten love letter in a bottle washes ashore amid WWII ruins
Love was found washed up among the ruins. A long-lost love letter in a bottle that washed up on the shore of the Baltic Sea has sparked a mystery and hunt for its author, who wrote the note by hand 66 years ago, according to reports. Two 10-year-old boys named Eryk and Kuba were playing in abandoned World War II forts on Stogi Beach in the town of Gdańsk in northern Poland when they found the bottle, according to TVP World. Inside, they were amazed to find a handwritten love letter from 1959 — its ink faded but still legible. The boys couldn't make out the strange cursive style of writing, but an online sleuth on the local news website quickly transcribed it for them. A decades-old love letter found washed up on the shore in a bottle has sparked a mystery. nito – The note was written by Rysia, a lovelorn woman taking a summer class in Tarnów, another Polish town 432 miles away from the beach where it finally washed up after decades, according to reports. The note is filled with longing and hopes for the future, but also contains frank and honest confessions from the author. It is addressed to a young man she called 'my beloved Bunny,' according to the local reports. 'My dear, I'm a terrible egoist, I only write about myself, but it is you I think about all the time,' she wrote, describing her long days and sleepless nights. 'Every roar of a motorbike (and there are a lot of them here) awakens memories of you through the window to the park that spreads out in front of me,' Rysia said. Some parts of the letter hinted at a trace of resentment. 'I have a lot of time for dreams because lectures are only from 9 to 2 p.m. and the rest of the time is at my disposal,' she wrote. 'You could go wherever you want, but I sit alone.' At times in the writing, it seemed like their relationship was new, as the author explained to Bunny what she was like and how she preferred to be alone. 'I assure you that I am quiet and modest, I don't strike up acquaintances with anyone — I simply avoid men,' Rysia wrote, looking forward to when she can finally return home. 'I have no desire for fun or walks,' she scrawled. 'There is no one familiar here.' The letter and its passionate contents preserved after all these years have sparked speculation online about the intrigue between the two lovers from another era. Both the treasure finders and online commenters fascinated by the message in the bottle are hoping to find Rysia and Bunny — or their descendants — and learn if their relationship has made after all these years. The boys who found the bottle said they have been in contact with a museum in Tarnów in the hopes that the letter's author can be found, according to local reports.

Polish leader says united European army ‘will not happen'
The foreign minister of Poland, Radosław Sikorski, said that a united European army 'will not happen.' 'If you understand by … the unification of national armies, it will not happen,' Sikorski said. 'But I have been an advocate for Europe, for the European Union, to develop its own defense capabilities.' 'And we are actually in the process of forming a reinforced brigade,' he added. 'That's not enough to deter Putin, but it's enough to perhaps sort out some warlord in Libya.' The TVP World comments by Sikorski came in a Saturday YouTube video. Last Wednesday, President Trump said he expects to meet face-to-face with Russian President Vladimir Putin multiple times, with the president implying that they will probably first meet in Saudi Arabia. 'We ultimately expect to meet,' Trump said in the Oval Office. 'In fact, we expect that he'll come here, and I'll go there, and we're going to meet also, probably in Saudi Arabia. The first time we'll meet in Saudi Arabia.' NewsNation reported Saturday that Secretary of State Marco Rubio, National Security Adviser Mike Waltz and Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff were also probably meeting high-level Russian officials soon in Saudi Arabia to discuss ending the war in Ukraine. However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky previously said that Ukraine has not received an invitation to any Saudi Arabia meeting between officials from Trump and Russia. 'It is strange to hold a meeting in such format before we had consultations with our strategic partners,' Zelensky said Saturday to reporters in Munich.
