Leaders meet in the city of Evian. They belong to the G7 group. The Ukraine president is also there. His name is Wolodymyr Selenskyj. He talks with Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron.
Selenskyj wants peace for his country. He suggests a meeting with Wladimir Putin. This meeting should happen in the USA. Donald Trump already spoke to Putin. Trump says: Both sides want to talk. Russia should sign an agreement.
There is still hard fighting in Ukraine. Russian drones destroyed an old church in Kyiv. Friedrich Merz still hopes for diplomacy. Diplomacy means: Countries talk in peace. He says: Ukraine is strong now.
Germany and other countries have a plan. There should be a Waffen-Ruhe. That means: Nobody is allowed to shoot. Other countries should watch the peace. Russia should pay for the damage. Russia has no interest in talks so far.
