The Kremlin said on Wednesday Russia will never discuss trading the Ukrainian territory it holds for areas in Russia's western Kursk region held by Kyiv.

Ukraine could trade territory in potential peace talks with Russia, Zelensky says Ukraine strikes Russia's Saratov oil refinery, military confirms US won't send troops to Ukraine, Pentagon chief says North Korea has sent 200 long-range artillery guns to Russia,

When Volodymyr Zelensky said he was ready to negotiate with Vladimir Putin in order to end the war, it wasn't the first time Ukraine's leader announced his readiness to talk to Moscow. In fact, the two sides already tried to negotiate in the early days of the war.
