Ukrainian President Zelenskiy said Kyiv will not trade anything in exchange but is willing to hold talks; territorial issues must be handled at leaders' level while other matters can be handled by technical working groups, and all can be discussed in November.

A US source and an Israeli source say Prime Minister Netanyahu, fighting for political survival ahead of Tuesday's election, has pressed US President Trump for increased public support. The US source said the White House views Netanyahu’s aggressive lobbying as a "sign of desperation" and believes it signals he knows he is trailing. The US source said Netanyahu spoke to Trump twice in the past three days and asked him to reinforce last week’s support post on Truth Social, even drafting suggested wording. The Israeli source said Netanyahu proposed Trump call Israeli journalists to express further backing.
