Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has made a high-profile trip to Florida to meet US President Donald Trump, following recent Russian missile attacks on Kyiv. The unexpected meeting at Mar-a-Lago aims to bridge differences in the existing peace plan to end the prolonged conflict. With American diplomats working tirelessly, the new proposal has been revised from an original 28 to 20 points.

 

Background efforts have intensified with Zelensky and Trump’s proxies in a deep discussion to finalise terms acceptable to Ukraine and Russia. Trump, interrupting his holiday, indicated meetings would only occur if peace was within reach, highlighting the negotiation's advanced stage. Zelensky confirms that American authorities have agreed on 90% of the peace deal.

 

Unresolved are the thorniest issues, such as land concessions in eastern Ukraine and the future of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant. Zelensky has suggested the possibility of a Ukrainian referendum on territorial changes if a ceasefire is achieved. Ideas such as creating an economic free zone in Ukraine have been floated to break the deadlock.

 

Russia's stance remains unclear, with no representatives at the Florida talks and President Putin emphasising military action if peaceful resolutions fail. Meanwhile, Russian drone and missile strikes continue, underscoring the conflict's intensity. Discussions in Berlin earlier this month led to breakthrough security guarantees, potentially providing Ukraine with deterrence against further aggression.

 

Sunday's meeting excludes European leaders, a departure from previous multinational efforts. Trump expressed optimism but warned that nothing was certain without his approval. Both countries seek a strong peace framework with substantial US-backed security guarantees, described as the "platinum standard."

 

Zelensky's push for further dialogue with Trump after their October meeting reflects Ukraine's urgent need for resolution. European officials view the current dynamic with the US as constructive, albeit acknowledging unpredictabilities in dealing with Trump.

 

 

Key Takeaways:

• Zelensky and Trump met to finalise a peace plan after recent attacks in Ukraine.
• Key issues include land concessions and the fate of the Zaporizhzhia plant.
• New security guarantees could deter further Russian aggression.

Trump will negotiate an agreement for Ukraine to join the EU as part of the security guarantee, and the EU will have no choice but to put their ideological money where their mouth is and accept the thriving Ukrainian economy to its bosom breast.

 

In doing so, he will saddle the EU economy with the equivalent of an anvil tied to a swimmer's ankle for the next 30 years - while making sure American interests get the bulk of the contracts to rebuild the infrastructure and harvest the minerals. Next, Chayna! 

 

I actually think Trump is somewhat annoyed that Xi and the CCP haven't yet pulled the trigger on Taiwan, ROC. 

Apparently, Trump and Zelensky were close to reaching an agreement. And then all of a sudden Putin claims there was a Ukrainian drone attack on one of his homes. How convenient….

So Putin made a phone call to Trump and told him that Russia, because of that drone attack, is now a lot less willing to come to the table again. And this made Trump very angry at Zelensky. Which is exactly what Putin wanted.

I doubt very much that this ‘drone attack’ ever happened, because the timing is just too convenient. But convincing Trump that it did was probably a piece of cake for Putin. 

Rudi ,I have seen three Utube videos that claim Ukraine sent drones into an apartment block (very top floors) that they claim belonged to Putin and then also the monstrous palace complex overlooking the ocean they claim belonged to Putin but showed no footage of that attack.

 

Trump appears to have no issue of Russia firing missiles into Kiev and other cities on a nightly basis targeting apartments annd homes.

An attack on Putin which of course never took place. All lies from Putin to derail the peace talks. And Trump took the bait. Of course.

Russian war bloggers and others would have been on the ball if any drone attack on Putin took place. They detect it early. They always do. This time, nothing. Not a word.

Just lies, as usual.

I can also add that reliable newspapers now tell that many neighbors of Putin have been asked if they have registered any sound, sirens, any explosions or anything to back their claim. No one has heard anything.. 91 drones would have made quite some sounds when being "shot down"..

That is proof right there, that these sons of b....es are lieing through their teeth, again. An absolute disgrace.
