After 3 years of brutal fighting in Eastern Europe, many would welcome an end to Russia's full-scale invasion, but a peace deal that would satisfy all remained elusive.

The U.S. abstained from the vote of a United Nations resolution to condemn Russia's war against Ukraine on the war's third anniversary.

As the invasion of Ukraine hits its 3-year mark, anti-war protesters are seen placing flowers in Moscow. This is a rare scene in Russia, where any acts of dissent are tightly controlled.
