NPR - Trump and Vice President JD Vance are pushing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to accept a U.S.-backed peace deal. On Truth Social, Trump lashed out at Zelenskyy after he rejected a proposal to accept Russia's 2014 annexation of Crimea from Ukraine. The tensions between the U.S. and Ukraine came as both countries worked with European officials yesterday in London to discuss ways to end the war.
The White House has not publicly offered specifics on the peace plan,
but it clearly heavily favors Russia on paper, NPR’s Charles Maynes
says. For Ukraine, it appears that acknowledging the Crimean peninsula
is a non-starter. Trump wants peace now and sees leverage over Kyiv
as the quickest way to get there, which is why Maynes believes the
president is asking a lot of Ukraine and so little of Russia.
