Zelenski continues to talk to European leaders before meeting Trump
Today, there will be a fair conversation with Trump and Zelensky about Europe.
European Commission Chief Ursula von der Leyen will speak via telephone today with Zelensky and Trump, in which other European leaders will also participate on the basis of the 20-point peace plan agreed by the US and Ukrainian leaders.
According to the newspaper Kommersant , close to the Kremlin, President Putin would be willing to exchange part of the territory under his control with Ukraine, provided that all of Donbass was taken over by Russia.
The point of Donbass territory has been the most painful for Ukraine in the peace talks, because it would mean handing over to Russia the part of Donetsk province still under their control, about 20%.
The 20-point peace plan agreed between the US and Kiev envisages the creation of a demilitarized zone in the area, which Ukraine would accept. But it is not yet clear how this would be effected and guaranteed.
The plan also provides that the Zaporiyia nuclear power plant should be managed by Russia, Ukraine and the US, that Ukraine should have an army of 800,000 soldiers and security guarantees equivalent to NATO membership.
Meanwhile, the attacks continue. Meanwhile, in Kiev, Russia launched a major offensive tonight. Missiles have been fired and several explosions have been heard in the city, according to the Ukrainian Army.
