Trump and Putin Set for Key Call on Ukraine Ceasefire Proposal

The U.S.-backed 30-day ceasefire faces Russian conditions, including NATO renunciation and territorial concessions, as Ukraine and Europe voice concerns over potential compromises.

• U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will discuss a proposed 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine during a scheduled phone call today.
• Russia's demands for the ceasefire include Ukraine renouncing NATO membership, recognizing Russian control over annexed territories, and halting Western arms deliveries.
• Ukraine has conditionally agreed to the ceasefire but rejects any territorial concessions and insists on its right to determine its future, including NATO membership.
• European leaders and Ukrainian officials fear the negotiations could result in U.S. concessions that undermine Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
• The talks are part of broader efforts to normalize U.S.-Russia relations, with discussions reportedly involving the division of assets such as land and energy infrastructure, including the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
