US President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Florida on Sunday to discuss a new 20-point peace plan aimed at resolving Russia’s ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The meeting, set to take place in Palm Beach, Florida, was announced by the White House on Friday. Trump emphasized his role in approving any potential agreement between Ukraine and Russia, stating, “He doesn’t have anything until I approve it.”
Zelensky plans to present a revised peace framework during the talks, including proposals for a demilitarized zone and discussions on US security guarantees. The Ukrainian leader expressed optimism about finalizing key points during the meeting with Trump but noted uncertainty about reaching a firm agreement. Trump, anticipating productive discussions, also hinted at potential engagement with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the near future.
The diplomatic efforts highlight Washington’s significant involvement in mediating peace, despite Russia’s apparent reluctance to shift its stance. Zelensky has engaged in extensive diplomatic outreach, coordinating positions with leaders from NATO, Canada, Germany, and other countries. The 20-point plan, jointly developed by Ukrainian and US officials, is nearly complete, focusing on ensuring Ukraine’s future security with support from its allies.
