Trump and Zelensky Meet at Mar-a-Lago to Try to Seal 20-Point Ukraine Peace Plan

Overview

• The Palm Beach session follows weeks of U.S.-mediated drafting that negotiators say is about 90% complete.
• Trump said he spoke by phone with Vladimir Putin and called the conversation “very good and productive” shortly before meeting Zelensky.
• The proposal outlines NATO-like security guarantees for Ukraine, sanctions provisions, and options for demilitarized zones aligned with current front lines.
• Zelensky has signaled flexibility on territorial questions, including a possible referendum, while seeking strong U.S. guarantees to prevent renewed aggression.
• The talks follow one of the year’s largest Russian barrages — around 500 drones and 40 missiles — and fresh Kremlin claims of gains disputed by Kyiv.
