Subject: Trump hangs picture of himself with Putin in WH
Elizabeth Landers, the White House correspondent for PBS News Hour, who shared an image of the photograph on X, said it was hung in a vestibule area connecting the West Wing to the residence.

Kirill Dmitriev, Russia’s key negotiator, welcomed the news, saying: “Good. A picture is worth a thousand words.”

According to reports, the White House has told Ukraine it must cede the Donbas, the two coal-rich eastern Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, before the US will provide security guarantees.

Mark Warner, a Democratic senator from Virginia and the highest-ranking Democrat on the intelligence committee, said: “Putting Putin above the American people and his own family. Almost a little too on the nose.”
