Overview
- Kyiv delivered an updated U.S.-drafted proposal to Washington, structured as a 20-point framework with separate documents on security guarantees and reconstruction.
- Trump said his call with Merz, Macron and Starmer featured "pretty clear" words and disagreements, while European readouts cast it as constructive and a decisive moment.
- European leaders invited U.S. participation in weekend talks expected to include Selenskyj, but Trump has not committed and left open the level of attendance.
- Selenskyj said elections could be prepared within 60–90 days only with concrete security guarantees and legal changes, and he warned partners against pressure to vote under martial law.
- Merz said proposals on potential territorial concessions were shared with Trump but stressed only Ukrainians can decide acceptable terms; media reports say the U.S. plan may include resuming some Russian energy purchases in Europe and using frozen Russian assets, which is unconfirmed.
