Ukraine-Russia war latest: Zelensky warns Putin will launch new war from land gained in Trump deal - The Independent.uk via MSN

Vladimir Putin has demanded Ukrainian forces withdraw from Donetsk as part of any ceasefire deal potentially brokered by Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelensky said.

Mr Zelensky vowed Ukraine would “never leave” the Donbas and warned Mr Putin’s troops could use it as a spring board for a future invasion.

"We will not leave Donbas. We cannot do this. Everyone forgets the first part - our territories are illegally occupied. Donbas for the Russians is a springboard for a future new offensive,” he said.

Mr Zelensky learned of Russia's position after holding a call with Mr Trump and special envoy Steve Witkoff, after Mr Witkoff’s bilateral meeting with Mr Putin.

MEANWHILE: BIRDS OF A FEATHER...

North Korean and Russian leaders reaffirm alignment over Ukraine - POLITICORussian President Vladimir Putin praised North Korean troops for their “bravery, heroism and self-sacrificing spirit” on his front lines.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russian President Vladimir Putin held a phone call to discuss their deepening ties and war efforts against Ukraine, the countries’ state media said Wednesday, ahead of Putin’s planned meeting with... Donald Trump in Alaska.

Putin during the call on Tuesday praised the “bravery, heroism and self-sacrificing spirit” displayed by North Korean troops as they fought with Russian forces to repel a Ukrainian incursion into Russia’s Kursk border region, North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency said.

Putin also shared with Kim information about his upcoming talks with Trump scheduled to take place Friday in Alaska, according to Russia’s TASS news agency, citing the Kremlin. The North Korean reports did not mention the Trump meeting.

Hmmm... Trump's good buddies Vladimir and Kim, gleefully 'aligned' over Ukraine. With Trump greasing the axles. What could possibly go wrong?
