According to the source, Trump will host Zelensky and several European leaders to discuss the terms of a potential peace deal.
At issue is the agreement he discussed with Vladimir Putin on Friday in Alaska. While the U.S. will focus on territorial concessions demanded by Moscow, Kiev will seek to lock in possible security guarantees.
Trump has told allies he wants to reach a deal quickly and will urge Ukraine to agree to it, setting a goal of having Zelensky and Putin meet within a week.
Recall that after Trump’s meeting with Putin in Alaska, the American leader has moved away from the idea of a ceasefire in Ukraine and is pushing for a full-fledged peace deal.
As explained by Trump’s special representative Steve Whitkoff, the change of position is due to the “significant” progress in the negotiations between the United States and Russia.
Whitkoff announced yesterday that today in the White House at a meeting with Zelensky will discuss territorial concessions in favor of Russia.
Zelensky himself said that any territorial issues should only be discussed by the leaders of the countries during a trilateral meeting. However, Russia is not showing signs that it is ready for it.
