The US struck a "total reset" trade deal with China, ending days of negotiations that began Friday in Geneva, with Trump hailing it as creating a "fairer playing field for America." US officials labeled it a solution to address the trade deficit.
Hamas agreed to release Edan Alexander, the last living American hostage in Gaza, following truce efforts. Meanwhile, Ukraine's President Zelenskyy agreed to meet Putin personally after Trump's intervention, though Ukraine still insisted on a ceasefire before formal peace talks.
The most controversial development was Trump's plan to accept a Boeing 747-8 jet as a gift from Qatar's royal family for potential use as Air Force One, with critics calling it "comically corrupt." By evening, Qatar claimed no final decision had been made on the gift, as ethical and constitutional questions mounted.
The new Pope Leo XIV used his first Sunday blessing to call for peace in Gaza and Ukraine.
