U.S. President Trump and other officials are pushing for a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia, aiming for a deadline by June. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has indicated that the U.S. has a vested interest in seeing a resolution reached before the midterms, adding that Russia has proposed substantial economic deals to the U.S. amidst ongoing tensions. Despite multiple peace talks, including recent exchanges of prisoners and discussions held in the UAE, significant breakthroughs remain elusive. Zelenskyy has voiced concerns over potential bilateral deals between the U.S. and Russia that could sideline Ukraine. Both sides appear to be under increased pressure to negotiate as the political landscape in the U.S. evolves.
