🕒 09:27 Macron: Putin's Peace Proposal Falls Short 🤮Emmanuel Macron, France's strutting peacock of a president, claims Putin's offer for face-to-face negotiations is one big flop. Macron, along with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, said any negotiations must involve an unconditional ceasefire.

🕒 09:18 Attacks on Kupyansk from the Sky 🛸Kupyansk, nestled in Eastern Ukraine, took a beating over the weekend, courtesy of the Russian sky pirates.

Nicolai, one such soldier, met with NTV reporter Kavita Sharma. 💔

🕒 06:57 Trump's Negotiator Relying on Kremlin Translators 🤥Steve Witkoff, Trump's special en emisario for the Middle East, found himself in a bit of a pickle during his meetings with Vladimir Putin. According to reports by NBC News, Witkoff, who doesn't speak a lick of Russian, depended on translators provided by the Kremlin. This practice supposedly goes against the usual protocols and makes Witkoff heavily dependent on his translators. 🤥
🕒 05:46 Klitschko Reports Russian Drone Attack on Kiev 🛸Tension escalated in Ukraine's capital city, Kyiv, as the city's air defenses scrambled to repel a drone attack from Russia.

🕒 03:38 Sanctions Enable Targeting Russia's Energy and Banking Sector 💰Impressive teamwork by the Europeans and Americans strives to squeeze Russia for a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine starting on May 12.

🕒 02:15 Report: USA Proves Green Light for Germany's Delivery of Long-Range Artillery Rockets and Patriot Missiles to Ukraine 💣Rumor has it that the USA has given its approval for Germany to dispatch long-range artillery rockets, along with Patriot air defense missiles, to Ukrainian forces.

🕒 01:19 On May 15 in Istanbul: Putin Proposes Direct Talks with Ukraine 🤝Putin, the Russian powerhouse of a leader, has proposed holding direct meetings with Ukraine on May 15 in Istanbul. Putin suggests serious negotiations "without preconditions" and proposes starting them as early as next Thursday. It's worth noting that Kyiv and its European supporters have been calling for a 30-day unconditional ceasefire, which Putin has yet to address. 😕
🕒 00:38 Russia's Declared Three-Day Ceasefire Comes to a Close 🕰️Just like that, the three-day ceasefire announced by Russia is no more. The ceasefire, which started on May 7 at midnight local time, officially ended at midnight on May 10 (23:00 CEST).

🕒 22:11 Zelensky Declines US Proposal for a Demilitarized Zone: "The Idea Is Dead" 🚫Volodymyr Zelensky emphatically dismissed the notion of establishing a demilitarized zone during a press conference in Kyiv, held alongside Macron, Merz, Starmer, and Tusk. Zelensky's stance contradicts that of US special envoy for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, who suggested creating a buffer zone between Russian and Ukrainian forces as a way forward. However, Zelensky maintains that it's premature to discuss this idea. "The idea is currently dead," Zelensky firmly stated. 🤔
🕒 21:43 Zelensky, Macron, and Starmer Pay Respects to Fallen Ukrainian Soldiers at the "Wall of Remembrance" 💔In a poignant moment, French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, accompanied by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, paid their respects to the brave soldiers who lost their lives defending Ukraine at the Mychajliwska Square memorial.
