"We're already talking about that, dividing up certain assets," Trump said. Last week, Ukraine agreed to a US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire, but Russia said several details still had to be worked out. Fighting is continuing, with Ukraine reporting that Russian forces were trying to cross into the northern Sumy region. Kyiv had been trying to protect Sumy by launching a counter-offensive in Russia's neighbouring Kursk region, but Russian forces have recently been regaining territory, forcing Ukrainian troops to retreat. |
