How has the war in Ukraine divided Western countries? | Inside Story

US efforts to secure Russian agreement to a ceasefire in Ukraine appear no closer to yielding results, after US special envoy Steve Witkoff's third visit to Russia. Trump has told Putin he must bring an end to the war quickly. Witkoff's meeting with Vladimir Putin in St Petersburg on Friday was held as European leaders met to agree a huge military support package for Ukraine. Nearly $24 billion has been pledged, with Germany and UK footing the largest share. With the US and Europe now taking different approaches to end the war - can either side bring Russia to the table?
