Putin Proposes US Stop Ukraine Aid; Kyiv Rejects, Cites Pressure

Putin proposed that the US halt military aid to Ukraine, a move Kyiv immediately rejected, with Foreign Minister Sibiga asserting that only pressure influences Russia. The proposal appears to be a diplomatic overture aimed at weakening Western support, but its sincerity is unverified. This matters as it tests Western resolve and could signal a shift in Russia's negotiating posture.
