"US President Donald Trump is "extremely frustrated" with Russia and Ukraine over the ongoing war, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Thursday. "He doesn't want any more talk. He wants action. He wants this war to come to an end," she said. Despite a recent US diplomatic push, Ukraine and Russia have rejected key elements of Washington's proposal, and talks on a final plan are ongoing."
"US: Trump wants the war ended fast and is increasingly frustrated with the protracted peace talks Ukraine wants security guarantees, rejects territorial concessions and wants to keep the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant Russia seeks control of all of the Donbas region and opposes NATO expansion Europe and NATO are pushing for a fair peace and warn of the urgent threat to Europe from Russia"
""They see Ukrainian forces leaving the territory of Donetsk region, and the supposed compromise is that Russian forces do not enter this territory ... which they already call a 'free economic zone'," Zelenskyy told reporters on Thursday. The Ukrainian leader said any compromise on territory should be decided by popular vote. "I believe that the people of Ukraine will answer this question. Whether through elections or a referendum, there must be a position from the people of Ukraine," he told journalists."
Donald Trump is extremely frustrated with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and is pressing for a rapid end. Ukraine demands US and European security guarantees before agreeing to end hostilities and refuses Russian territorial concessions that it says would leave the country vulnerable. Russia seeks control of Donbas and opposes NATO expansion, demanding territorial gains. Kyiv has submitted a revised 20-point plan and insists any territorial compromise be decided by popular vote. Europe and NATO call for a fair peace and warn that the conflict poses an urgent threat to European security, while talks remain ongoing.
