Putin, Zelenskyy, and the Peace Trump Can’t Broker

Russia demands Ukraine cede territory before any ceasefire, causing postponement of Trump-Putin summit amid Western calls for immediate halt to fighting, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, U.S. President Donald Trump put plans for a Budapest meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on hold as Moscow rejected an immediate ceasefire and demanded territorial concessions.
  • Moscow has insisted any ceasefire include territorial gains for Russia, demanding Ukraine cede control of the Donbas region while European leaders back freezing fighting at current lines.
  • The planned Rubio-Lavrov preparatory meeting was postponed for Thursday, and a White House official said their productive call on Tuesday left no plans for an immediate presidential meeting.
  • There are growing fears the planned meeting could be shelved altogether because Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orban maintains warm ties with Russia, Poland warned it could force down Russian President Vladimir Putin’s plane, while Bulgaria offered airspace.
  • After an unproductive Alaska summit, expectations remain low as EU leaders prepare to meet in Brussels on Thursday while observers warn Russia may be 'playing' U.S. President Donald Trump.
