European and Ukrainian officials are worried that U.S. President Donald Trump might walk away from peace talks.

U.S. President Donald Trump wants to see a permanent ceasefire to ending Russia's war in Ukraine, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Monday. Leavitt told reporters that Trump was increasingly frustrated with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy,
