As Ukraine approached the three-year mark of Russia’s full-scale invasion, the country’s hoped-for path to a favorable and lasting peace has been upended in a matter of days by the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump.

The White House and Ukraine have made significant progress toward reaching an agreement that would provide the U.S. with access to Ukraine’s rare earth minerals and tighten the long-term relationship between Kyiv and Washington.

The United States has proposed a draft resolution for the U.N. General Assembly that stops far short of a competing European-backed statement demanding an immediate withdrawal of all of Moscow’s forces from Ukraine.

A top White House official says President Donald Trump's increasingly tough criticism of Volodymyr Zelenskyy reflects the administration’s growing frustration with what they see as the Ukrainian leader creating roadblocks to finding an endgame to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

After nearly three years of living under constant threat of Russian airstrikes while their troops fight a grinding campaign against Russia’s invasion, many Ukrainians long for an end to the war.

U.S. President Donald Trump has quickly plunged into Mideast diplomacy since returning to office last month.

The Kremlin says senior American and Russian officials will hold talks on improving their ties and negotiating an end to the war in Ukraine.

President Donald Trump’s approach to ending Russia’s war against Ukraine has left European allies and Ukrainian officials worried they're being largely sidelined by the new U.S. administration as Washington and Moscow plan direct negotiations.

A U.S. official says Secretary of State Marco Rubio is leading a delegation to Saudi Arabia for direct talks with Russian officials in the coming days to seek an end to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has signaled that he's moving ahead with U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposal to transfer the Palestinian population out of Gaza.

Russian news agencies say that Alexander Vinnik, a Russian cryptocurrency expert who faced Bitcoin fraud charges in the United States, has returned to Russia after being freed in a swap that saw Moscow’s release of American Marc Fogel.

The Kremlin says a Russian citizen has been freed in the United States in exchange for Moscow’s release of American Marc Fogel.

President Donald Trump has hosted Jordan’s King Abdullah II at the White House and has renewed his insistence that Gaza could somehow be emptied of all residents, controlled by the U.S. and redeveloped as a tourist area.

President Donald Trump’s proposal to forcibly transfer hundreds of thousands of Palestinians out of the Gaza Strip and develop faces some major obstacle.

President Donald Trump has suggested that displaced Palestinians in Gaza be permanently resettled outside the war-torn territory and proposed the U.S. take “ownership” in redeveloping the area.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he will discuss “victory over Hamas,” countering Iran and expanding diplomatic relations with Arab countries in his meeting with President Donald Trump.

Hamas-led militants freed eight more hostages from the Gaza Strip and another 110 Palestinian prisoners were released by Israel as part of a ceasefire that began earlier this month.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed 15 months ago that Israel would achieve “total victory” in the war in Gaza — by eradicating Hamas and freeing all the hostages.

President Donald Trump has signed a flurry of executive orders focused on the military, including one that directs Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to revise the Pentagon’s policy on transgender troops, likely setting in motion a future ban on their military service.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is hoping to meet with President Donald Trump in Washington as early as next week.

Mediators say Israel and Hamas have agreed to a pause in fighting in Gaza and to begin releasing the hostages held there.

President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald Trump are both claiming credit for Israel and Hamas agreeing to a ceasefire deal in Gaza after the White House brought Trump’s Middle East envoy into negotiations that have dragged on for months.

Officials say U.S. and Arab mediators made significant progress overnight toward brokering a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war and the release of scores of hostages held in the Gaza Strip, but a deal has not been reached yet.

Gaza’s Health Ministry says more than 46,000 Palestinians have been killed in the Israel-Hamas war, with no end in sight to the 15-month conflict.

Less than two weeks before taking office, President-elect Donald Trump is taking some of his most audacious claims and promises of the transition period and amping them up to new levels.

President-elect Donald Trump doesn’t think much of Joe Biden’s foreign policy record.

Donald Trump is making threats, traveling abroad, and negotiating with world leaders.

President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming Middle East envoy recently visited Israel and Qatar for high-level talks on landing a ceasefire and hostage deal in Gaza.

A Hamas official says that after a weekslong hiatus international mediators have resumed negotiating with the militant group and Israel over a ceasefire in Gaza, and that he was hopeful a deal to end the 14-month war was within reach.
