Ukraine Urges Acceleration of Peace Talks, Says only Trump Can Broker Deal
Ukraine aims to finalize a U.S.-brokered peace deal by March addressing land disputes, security guarantees, and control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, with a referendum planned for May.

- Russia, the occupying power, still holds nearly a fifth of Ukraine's territory and demands Ukraine cede 20% of Donetsk, with analysts estimating about 1.3% territorial gains since early 2023.
