Peace talks falter amid Ukraine-Russia drone clashes
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is set to present a streamlined 20-point peace plan to the Trump administration, pared down from 28 points following talks with European counterparts. The proposal aims to outline a framework for resolving the conflict, even as aerial skirmishes intensify.
President Donald Trump presses for a holiday truce, but deep divides persist on issues like territorial handovers and Ukraine's security assurances. Recent consultations with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz underscored the urgency, labeling this phase pivotal for Ukraine's future and European stability.
Russia insists on Ukraine relinquishing full control of Donbas and forgoing NATO ambitions demands Zelenskyy dismisses as unlawful under Ukraine's constitution and global norms. He reiterated this stance during a recent media briefing, highlighting the legal barriers to such concessions.
