Story summary

First Lady Melania Trump will host peace talks between Russia and Ukraine at the White House on Thursday, aiming to build upon a recently concluded ceasefire in Oleshky, a Ukrainian town under Russian occupation. The six-day truce allowed nearly 800 civilians to leave the area after years of bombardment and enabled emergency aid to reach the region. Trump independently initiated this diplomatic initiative without official envoys, marking an unprecedented move for an American First Lady. The representatives attending from both sides have not been disclosed, though Ukrainian officials speculate that Dmytro Lubinets (Ukraine’s human rights ombudsman) and Yana Lantratova (Russia’s human rights commissioner) might participate; however, Lantratova faces US sanctions requiring a special waiver to enter the country. The talks come amid ongoing Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, including recent strikes that killed at least 33 people in a school used for aid distribution in Zaporizhzhia.
