Yeah try BBC news, I know it's the BBC but should give you a rough idea.  Early days, basically.  Positively, they're ongoing.

Slowly. And not well.

Putin doesn't care how long the war lasts or how many die on both sides as long as he "wins". Trump is no match for that.

appalling defeat for Trump ( and us )

Putin  has said of the 'agreement' "da, there is a bit more we want. Ring again on Tuesday"

and Trump - fresh from the ice hockey game offer will offer some more of a country he is not er president of.

betrayal of Yalta - Roosevelt and Churchill give eastern europe  to Stalin July 1945

Re-posting this of mine from another thread last evening;

Trump is out of his depth. He thinks he is doing some kind of 'deal' with one of his cohort New York property developers.

Trump doesn't know quite what he wants other than to stop the war at any price (to Ukraine).

Putin, like Stalin at Yalta, is the only one who knows exactly what he wants.

Putin humiliated Trump again. Kept him waiting for an hour before taking the call and then conceded nothing.
