Refinitiv sources said Putin has refused to hold peace talks while Ukraine strikes Russian territory and may escalate the war in Ukraine.

China's State Council issued the 15th Five‑Year Carbon Peak Action Plan, directing that new electricity demand be covered by newly added clean power and setting capacity targets for 2030: wind and solar combined ≥2,800 GW, conventional hydropower ~410 GW, and operating nuclear ~110 GW. The plan mandates a multi‑source push—build Three‑North wind/PV bases, southwest integrated hydro‑wind‑solar hubs, coastal nuclear and offshore wind capacity—and accelerate distributed PV, dispersed wind, concentrated solar power, marine energy and localized biomass/geothermal deployment. It also promotes development of integrated wind‑solar‑hydrogen‑ammonia‑methanol bases and stronger coordination of generation, grid planning and power consumption.

US President Trump said he will grant Ukraine a license to manufacture Patriot missiles.
