US EditionU.S. open to recognizing Crimea as Russian in Ukraine deal: Report
- Top European and Ukrainian officials met in London on April 23 to discuss a potential settlement to the ongoing three-year war in Ukraine.
- The talks follow months of cease-fire proposals amid Russia's partial occupation and annexation claims over four Ukrainian regions, while Washington considers recognizing Crimea as Russian territory.
- Despite a 30-hour Easter cease-fire proposed by Russia, fighting resumed quickly with fresh attacks killing civilians in Myrnograd and injuring others in Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, and Kharkiv.
- Ukraine’s President Zelensky stated that achieving an unconditional cease-fire is the top priority and expressed readiness for talks only after hostilities end, while US officials warned patience with negotiations may be running out.
- The meeting’s outcome remains uncertain as Kremlin spokesman Peskov called the conflict too complex for quick resolution, and US Congress opposes recognizing Russia’s claims, reflecting deep divisions over the peace process.
