Melania Trump, the First Lady, brought together officials from Russia and Ukraine at the White House, an event that may be the first time a First Lady has personally hosted representatives of two warring nations for diplomatic talks. A localized ceasefire took effect early Tuesday, a pause that the administration says she helped arrange for the city of Oleshky. Both Ukrainian and Russian sides have confirmed the truce, and the White House says she secured the pause in fighting there. Residents of Oleshky have resorted to eating garden weeds to survive.
An update on the market: the Nasdaq index fell as much as five percent, putting it on track for its steepest one‑day decline in a year and a half after investors bet that artificial‑intelligence firms will face tighter regulation following the recent Democratic election victory. The drop pushes the index into correction territory, more than ten percent below its recent peak.
A joint U.S. statement warned of a continuing cyber threat after widespread hacks targeted industrial, retail and military freezer systems, affecting the food, transportation and health‑care sectors.
