"I think we're in final stages of talking and we're going to see. Otherwise, it's going to go on for a long time, and millions of additional people will be killed, said Trump, adding he did not have a deadline for the process. I do believe that we have the makings of a deal that's good for Ukraine, good for everybody."
"He added there would be a strong agreement to guarantee Ukraine's security, one that would involve European countries. We have two willing parties. We have two willing countries The people of Ukraine want [the war] to end, and the people of Russia want it to end, and the two leaders want it to end, Trump said. Russia intensified its attacks on Ukraine's capital in the days before the Florida meeting."
"Zelenskyy, by Trump's side, said he and the US president would discuss issues of territorial concessions, which have so far been a red line for his country. He said his negotiators and Trump's advisers have discussed how to move step by step and bring peace closer and would continue to do so in Sunday's meeting. During recent talks, the US agreed to offer certain security guarantees to Ukraine similar to those offered to other members of NATO."
US President Donald Trump welcomed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Mar-a-Lago as diplomacy over the Russia-Ukraine war entered final stages. Trump said negotiations were in final stages, warned a failure would prolong the conflict and cause millions more deaths, and declared belief in a deal beneficial to Ukraine and others. He said the agreement would include strong security guarantees involving European countries and that both Ukrainian and Russian populations and leaders wanted the war to end. Zelenskyy said discussions will cover territorial concessions and step-by-step moves toward peace, and that recent talks included US offers of NATO-like security guarantees.
