European leaders are struggling to make sense of a seemingly dramatic reset of the relationship between Washington and Moscow. President Trump has been echoing talking points made by President Vladimir Putin of Russia, falsely accusing Ukraine of having provoked Russia’s invasion and casting Russia as the aggrieved party rather than the aggressor. And while Trump may not quit NATO outright, he is already undercutting it.

They were instead meant as a first step in a process of making a deal, he told European diplomats on a recent call.

From the war: A senior Ukrainian intelligence official confirmed a plot to blow up drone goggles that was inspired by what Israeli intelligence had pulled off with exploding wireless devices and Hezbollah militants. It was unclear how much effect the scheme had on Russian forces.
