Trump and Zelenskyy Cite Progress in Florida Talks, but No Ukraine Peace Deal Yet

Teams will now draft specifics on security guarantees, with territorial terms in Donbass still the key obstacle.

Overview

  • The Mar-a-Lago meeting ended without a concrete agreement as both leaders spoke of progress, with Trump calling negotiations in the "end phase."
  • Both highlighted security guarantees as the core of Kyiv’s 20-point plan; Zelenskyy said they are 100% settled, while Trump put them at 95%.
  • Territorial issues in Donetsk and Luhansk remain unresolved, and a TrumpPutin call beforehand underscored pressure to decide the Donbass question.
  • Russia was not part of the talks; Putin threatened to "solve all problems with force" if Kyiv refuses terms, while Moscow’s intensified strikes continued.
  • US, Ukrainian and European teams will form working groups in the coming weeks, with further leader calls — including another to Putin — and an expected follow-up with European partners.
