Ukraine has reportedly accepted a modified version of a US-backed plan to end the war with Russia, saving several sensitive terms for personal discussions between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US counterpart Donald Trump.
Meanwhile. Washington and Moscow officials are meeting in the UAE’s Abu Dhabi to negotiate a peace deal.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov says the Kremlin is unlikely to agree to a deal if it deviates significantly from what Russian leader Vladimir Putin and the US president discussed in Alaska.
Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio joined the Coalition of the Willing’s video conference hosted by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron in a promising sign of US cooperation.
The UK, France and Turkiye have all expressed willingness to deploy peacekeeping troops to Ukraine if a peace deal is reached.
