On Sunday, December 7, 2025, Russia praised the Trump administration’s new national security strategy. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russia’s Tass news agency that the updated document mostly matches Russia’s views. "There are statements there against confrontation and in favour of dialogue and building good relations," Peskov said. He added that Russia hopes this leads to "further constructive cooperation with Washington on the Ukrainian settlement." The White House released the strategy on Friday, saying the US wants to improve ties with Russia and sees ending the Ukraine war as a key goal to "reestablish strategic stability with Russia." Despite the diplomatic tone, violence continued. At least four people were killed in Russian missile, drone, and shelling attacks in Ukraine. A drone attack hit northern Chernihiv Saturday night, killing one man. In Kremenchuk, a missile and drone strike damaged infrastructure, causing power and water outages. Kremenchuk hosts one of Ukraine's largest oil refineries. Ukrainian officials say Russia aims to cut power and deny civilians heat and water this winter, calling it "weaponising" the cold. Sunday shelling in the Kharkiv region killed three and wounded 10. These events came as US and Ukrainian officials ended a third day of talks in Florida about ending the war. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Saturday he had a "substantive phone call" with American officials at the talks and remains committed to working towards peace. Speaking at the Reagan National Defense Forum, US Ukraine envoy Keith Kellogg said the peace effort is in "the last 10 metres," with key issues being "terrain, primarily the Donbas," and the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. Russia holds most of Donbas and controls the Zaporizhzhia plant area, which remains offline but needs power to avoid nuclear risks. Kellogg will leave his post in January and was not at the Florida talks. Meanwhile, leaders from the UK, France, and Germany plan to meet Zelenskyy in London on Monday.
