😱Donald Trump believes a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine is within reach, ❗but President Volodymyr Zelensky’s firm stance on Crimea is causing a stalemate. Here's the latest:
Trump’s Plan: He has suggested a peace deal allowing Russia to keep Crimea as part of a broader resolution.
Zelensky’s Stand: Zelensky has flatly rejected any proposal involving the loss of Crimea, asserting it is “our land” and that giving it up would defy Ukraine’s constitution.
U.S. Mediation Efforts: Vice President JD Vance proposed a ceasefire that would leave both sides with some of their current territory, but Zelensky declined.
Diplomatic Tensions: U.S. diplomats recently withdrew from a planned summit in London, and reports indicate Trump is becoming increasingly frustrated over the impasse.
The core issue is a deep divide in vision—Trump’s camp favors compromise through territorial concessions, while Zelensky stands firm on preserving Ukraine’s full sovereignty. The path to peace remains uncertain.
