Chapter 1: What are the latest developments in US-Russia relations?
Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Willman. A senior Russian official says a potential summit between President Trump and Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin remains on Moscow's agenda. NPR's Charles Mainz reports.
In an interview with a Russian policy journal, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Rybkov said the prospect of a new Trump-Putin meeting remained. I wouldn't rule anything out, said Rybkov, who characterized ongoing dialogue between Washington and Moscow as impressive. Those comments come amid a new push by President Trump to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine.
President Putin has loosely endorsed Trump's draft plan, which critics say skews heavily in Moscow's favor. Trump and Putin last met for a hastily scheduled summit in Alaska last August that failed to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough. Then Trump complained the Russian leader still wasn't ready for peace and canceled a potential follow-on meeting last month in Hungary.

President Trump says he was surprised when Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene announced Friday she would soon resign from Congress. The announcement came after months of tension between Greene and Trump. Georgia Public Broadcasting's Sarah Cullis spoke with some of Greene's constituents about the decision.
Greene is very popular in her district. Pamela Scheid, for example, lives in Greene's district. She's supportive of both Trump and Greene and wishes they would make amends. I think he should get over it and yes, support her. Some constituents like Josh Williams, who have backed her opponents, say they don't quite believe all of what she said.
I'm glad that she has seen the light as she is purporting, but I don't think that she's, I think she's a grifter.
People told me that they felt like this tension between her and Trump is just politics, and they have bigger concerns.
That's Georgia Public Broadcasting's Sarah Cullis. Israeli strikes across Gaza killed at least 24 people and injured more than 80 on Saturday. That's according to Palestinian health officials. Both Israel and Hamas, meanwhile, are accusing each other of ceasefire violations, but the ceasefire is still holding, as NPR's Kat Lansdorf reports.
