On the international front, there’s room on almost all the front pages to reports that Russian President Vladamir Putin has agreed in principle to a ceasefire in Ukraine but has set out strong terms. He has also rejected having a direct phone call with Donald Trump, who has imposed more sanctions on Russia in a bid to get Putin to accept the US-proposed ceasefire deal.
