Ahead of his meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European leaders later today, Donald Trump has put pressure on Ukraine’s president to end the war “almost immediately”.<\/p>\n

He said Zelenskyy can do this “if he wants to, or he can continue to fight” (see 6.31 post).<\/p>\n

Today’s meeting comes after Trump’s talks with Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday, where a deal to end the war wasn’t agreed.<\/p>\n

The strategic peninsula of Crimea has been crucial in US-led efforts to end the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The peninsula, which was illegally annexed by Russia in 2014, has long been coveted by Moscow, which wants Ukraine to officially surrender the territory as part of a peace deal.<\/p>\n

Zelenskyy has rejected this on multiple occasions, saying that formally surrendering the land has always been a red line, and goes against Kyiv’s constitution.<\/p>\n

While Putin has said he doesn’t want Ukraine to join NATO, US envoy Steve Witkoff said Russia’s president agreed to allow Ukraine’s allies to offer it a NATO-like security guarantee as part of an eventual deal to end the war.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
