Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet with former US President Donald Trump in Florida this weekend to discuss a potential end to the four-year-long war between Ukraine and Russia. According to Zelensky, the 20-point peace plan is nearly 90% complete, with 'territorial issues' being a major point of contention between the two nations. The Ukrainian leader expressed willingness for European allies to be involved in the discussions, but uncertainty remains about the feasibility of their participation on short notice.
Zelensky has been in constant communication with the American negotiating team, citing 'significant progress' in drafting security guarantees, a recovery and economic development plan, and a 20-point framework document. The Ukrainian President held a productive meeting with US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner on Thursday, which he described as a 'good conversation.'
The meeting with Trump comes as Ukraine pushes for security guarantees and a resolution to the ongoing conflict. While the prospect of a peace deal is promising, Zelensky acknowledged that 'sensitive issues' still need to be addressed. The weeks ahead may be 'intensive' as both sides work towards a resolution.
