Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he is hoping for a full and temporary ceasefire with Russia starting Monday

ANKARA - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan reiterated his support for a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in Ankara on Tuesday, according to the Turkish presidency.

The weapon is made with a model aircraft engine available for approximately $16,000, according to the Ukrainian Main Intelligence Directorate.

European leaders say Russia's failure to join a ceasefire offered by Ukraine would lead to further sanctions on Moscow.

(Reuters) - Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy spoke by phone with newly elected Pope Leo XIV on Monday and said they discussed Ukrainian children abducted by Russia and a proposal from allies for a 30-day ceasefire which Moscow has so far not accepted.

Ukraine and its European allies called on Russian President Vladimir Putin to agree to a 30-day ceasefire by Monday or face a new wave of sanctions.

The Kremlin brushed off the threat of further sanctions, saying that “the language of ultimatums is unacceptable.”
