Russia-Ukraine war live: Putin says he is ready for talks ‘any time’ with Trump

Russian leader is making annual end-of-year address and fielding questions from reporters

Poland summoned the chargé d’affaires of Belarus (a diplomat of a lower rank acting in place of an ambassador), Alexei Ponkratiev, on Thursday to protest against what it called “aggressive actions” of the Belarusian KGB spy service towards Polish diplomats accredited in Belarus and other countries.

The Polish foreign ministry did not specify what actions it was accusing the Belarus agency of having taken, but said the continuation of such provocations would be met with a “symmetrical response from the Polish side”.
