Zelensky and European leaders' high-level diplomatic summit with Trump at the White House is essentially a combination of diplomacy and psychology. European leaders have to manage the emotions of a person known for his capriciousness. They have learned some experiences and skills in dealing with Trump, but the same goes for Putin.

The main content of the talks between Trump, Zelensky, and European leaders is what kind of security guarantees Europe and the United States will provide to Ukraine if Zelensky agrees to a ceasefire. Trump also spoke with Putin to arrange a possible direct meeting between Zelensky and Putin.

The humanoid robot sports competition concluded in Beijing, with over 280 teams from 16 countries participating, including universities and private enterprises. The events included soccer, athletics, taekwondo, and more. Some robots completed backflips and successfully navigated obstacle courses and rugged terrain. However, in other events, the robots' athletic abilities still need improvement.

The core of Trump's plan to end the Russia-Ukraine war is to persuade Kyiv to give up the eastern industrial region of Donbas. This traditionally Russian-speaking area has always been at the heart of what Putin calls the "root" of the war, and taking control of this region is almost at the top of Putin's list of territorial and political demands. Why is Putin so determined to occupy this area? Here is an analysis:

Trump's envoy, Vitkov, stated that in the negotiations to end the war, Putin is inclined to make some concessions, including agreeing to the strong security guarantees proposed by Trump earlier, even though these guarantees are not under NATO's framework. Secretary of State Rubio, on the other hand, took a more cautious stance. He warned that both Russia and Ukraine need to make concessions to end the war, and a peace agreement is unlikely to be achieved in the short term.

The meeting between Trump and Putin failed to end the war, with envoy Vitkov and Secretary of State Rubio both stating that a peace agreement may be difficult to achieve in the short term. Zelensky is scheduled to meet with Trump on Monday, and at least six European leaders are expected to attend.

What remains unknown is whether Trump has secured some undisclosed concessions from Putin behind the scenes, paving the way for a peace agreement in the coming days. Trump mentioned reaching an "agreement" on some unspecified issues, while Putin vaguely referred to a "understanding" reached between the two.

#Perspective The advantage of China's biotechnology industry lies in its efficiency and low cost. Embracing China's advancements and increasing access to Chinese-produced pharmaceuticals can provide Americans with more affordable medications and treatment options. Both China and the United States are competing to help people live longer and healthier lives. If China finds a faster and cheaper way to achieve this goal, Americans should not fall behind due to political factors.

Seeing the conflict between the United States and India is a surprising joy for China. The dispute between Trump and India could undermine the cooperation between the US and India in areas such as security and technology, as well as their joint efforts to contain China. At the same time, this also injects new momentum into the recently escalating tensions between China and India.

The "Trump-Putin meeting" can be described as a historic reversal. Trump abandoned his main objectives and yielded to Putin's preferred approach. There are no signs that Putin made any compromises, while Trump has given up on efforts for an immediate ceasefire.
