Zelenskyy urges Trump to end Ukraine war like in 'the Middle East'

  • On Saturday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged US President Donald Trump to broker peace in Ukraine similar to his Gaza peace deal during a very positive and productive call.
  • Russia launched a major airstrike on Friday that struck Ukraine's power grid, triggering blackouts, while Volodymyr Zelenskyy informed Donald Trump about attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.
  • Power was restored on Saturday to more than 800,000 residents in Kyiv, though localized outages remain, and the Russian Defence Ministry said Kinzhal hypersonic missiles and strike drones targeted energy sites.
  • Relations between the two leaders have warmed dramatically since February despite a tense televised White House meeting, and Donald Trump has maintained support for Ukraine while also pressuring Volodymyr Zelenskyy to negotiate.
  • Casting the Gaza deal as precedent, Zelenskyy suggested broader diplomatic possibilities, arguing `If a war can be stopped in one region, then surely other wars can be stopped as well—including the Russian war` and saying EU support can help Ukraine reclaim territory.
