Italian media began the day primarily focused on the death of television icon Pippo Baudo, detailing his funeral arrangements and widespread mourning. As the day progressed, editorial attention increasingly shifted to intense Ukraine diplomacy. Reports centered on President Trump's proposed August 22 summit with Putin and Zelensky, and Russia's conditions for peace, including territorial withdrawals. Zelensky consistently rejected ceding any land, particularly Donetsk. European leaders, including Meloni and von der Leyen, emerged as a united front, preparing to meet Zelensky in Washington before his potential trilateral with Trump.
