Moscow claimed Tuesday that an alleged Ukrainian attack on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s home earlier this week was meant to derail the United States’s work to end the Russia-Ukraine war. 

The supposed attack is “aimed at thwarting President [Donald] Trump’s efforts to promote a peaceful resolution” to the war, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
