Ukraine war live: Russia says it has full control over Ukrainian town of Avdiivka

Russian troops have full control and have advanced 8.6km beyond that region of frontline, Russian news agencies say

Responding to US Republican senator JD Vance on a panel at the Munich Security Conference on Sunday, German politician Ricarda Lang pushed back at the idea of a deal with Russia.

Putin has shown over and over again - and he just showed this with the murder of Navalny on Friday - that he has no interest in peace at the moment. That he does not want peace.

So if you say we stop supporting Ukraine, stop giving weapons to them, you are not having some scenario where this leads to peace, but at the moment this leads to two scenarios: either you are prolonging this war, or you give up Ukraine and Putin wins.
