As bilateral US-Russia talks are taking place in Alaska, international media provide details of topics and options on how they could go between Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.
According to Bloomberg, "the Trump administration is considering sanctions against Russian energy giants Lukoil and Rosneft if Putin does not accept a ceasefire."
The report, citing anonymous sources, notes that measures aimed at putting pressure on the Russian energy sector could be implemented gradually.
Trump has been blunt as he has said that he definitely wants a ceasefire to be established from this meeting, although it is not known at what price for Ukraine.
