Trump, Zelenskyy And Putin: Ceasefire, Arms Deal & Territorial Concessions

Seven months into Donald Trump’s presidency, the world is still adapting to his unpredictable deal-making style.

Talks touched on ceasefire demands, security guarantees, and a possible $90 billion US arms deal for Ukraine. In a dramatic twist, Trump phoned Vladimir Putin during negotiations, later announcing plans for direct Putin–Zelenskyy talks, followed by a trilateral including himself. While European leaders backed Ukraine, questions remain: will territorial concessions be the price for peace? Watch the full breakdown of this high-stakes meeting shaping the future of the war.
