I'm Peter Sagle. NPR is very serious, mostly. It treats newsmakers with all due respect, almost all the time. It brings you the most important information about the issues that really matter, usually, and it never asks famous people about things they don't know anything about, except once in a while. Join us for the great exception. Listen to Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, the news quiz from NPR.

Live from NPR News, I'm Janine Herbst. President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky say they will meet at the White House Monday to talk about ending Russia's war in Ukraine.

This is just hours after Trump held a summit with Russian President Putin in Alaska.

And here's Greg Myrie has more.

President Trump called Zelensky and extended the invitation as he flew back from Alaska to Washington.

Zelensky wrote on social media that Monday's meeting will discuss, quote, all the details regarding ending the killing and the war.

Trump said in his own social media

posts they believed it was best to go directly to a peace agreement rather than a mere ceasefire.

But that's a very tall order. Trump has pushed for months, without success, to get a ceasefire

in the Russia-Ukraine war. Ukraine endorses Trump's call, while Russia's Putin has not.

Speaking at the Alaska summit, Putin gave no indication he had changed his position.

The State Department says it's stopping all visas for people from Gaza to conduct a review of its process used for a small number of humanitarian medical visas.

MPR's Ritu Chatterjee has more.

The State Department announced on X that it's conducting a, quote, full and thorough review, close quote, of the process for medical humanitarian visas.

These visas have been granted to injured children from Gaza and their family members to receive

medical care in the U.S. Edward Ahmed Mishel is with the Council on American Islamic Relations,

which released a statement condemning the State Department's decision.

It is sheer cruelty. It is literally going to put the lives of more children at risk.

The State Department did not immediately respond to an interview request, and it's unclear how many of such visas it's granted in recent months.

But on X, it described the number as small.
