US EditionZelenskyy says Ukraine won’t cede territory to Russia
Zelenskyy rejects U.S. peace plan calls to cede Donbas, citing Ukrainian law, constitution, and international law, with European allies backing Ukraine's territorial integrity.

- Zelenskyy said his team could send a revised proposal to Washington as soon as Tuesday, adding, "Some issues can only be discussed in person" while continuing talks including a papal audience and Brussels meetings.
