President Donald Trump has failed to secure an agreement from Vladimir Putin to end Russia’s war in Ukraine, falling short in his most significant move yet to stop the bloodshed, even after rolling out the red carpet for the man who started it.

President Donald Trump shared the "peace letter" from first lady Melania Trump that was hand delivered to Vladimir Putin at the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska on Friday.
