20.08.2025 โ‡ข The Final Farewell's Embrace
โŒจItalian media began the day prioritizing Ukraine peace summit diplomacy, noting discussions of a trilateral meeting involving Trump, Putin, and Zelensky, with Budapest as a recurring venue.

01:28 (23:28)โ‡ขBudapest Summit Preparations

โŒจItalian media remains fixed on Ukraine peace diplomacy, extensively reporting on the White House's active preparations for a trilateral summit involving Putin and Zelensky. Budapest is consistently highlighted as the probable venue (Adnkronos, ANSA, Corriere Della Sera, Il Sole 24 Ore, La Repubblica, La Stampa, Sky TG24, HuffPost Italia, Il Fatto Quotidiano). Zelensky has definitively rejected Putin's proposal for a bilateral meeting in Moscow, which Putin continues to push (ANSA, Avvenire, La Stampa, Sky TG24). Trump's commitment to air support for Kyiv, while ruling out ground troops, garners appreciation from EU leaders (Il Giornale). This underscores ongoing, complex negotiations.
