Trump and Zelenskyy Discuss Peace Plan Progress, Key Issues Remain

Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy met in Palm Beach, Florida, to discuss the new peace plan for Ukraine. Despite expressing cautious optimism, significant sticking points remain, primarily regarding the future of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, security guarantees for Ukraine, and territorial concessions. Zelenskyy estimated that 90% of the plan has been agreed upon, while Trump avoided giving a specific percentage, emphasizing the complexity of the process. Trump stated that his phone call with Vladimir Putin was constructive, with the Russian president expressing “generous” feelings towards Ukraine’s success. However, analysts point out that Putin’s consent is essential for any agreement. The process is expected to be lengthy and complex, with the possibility of new meetings between American and Ukrainian delegations.
