Steve Witkoff describes the proposal as "game-changing" as Zelensky joins a call with European leaders ahead of his White House visit.

The last time Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was inside the Oval Office, he was berated by his US hosts, denied a planned luncheon and abruptly asked to leave the West Wing.

The highly anticipated summit ended without a breakthrough. Afterwards, Trump said Ukraine and Russia should proceed straight to seeking a full peace deal instead of a cease-fire.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is being "set up to fail" by US counterpart Donald Trump, who knows there is no chance of a workable peace deal being agreed, according to a former British Army

Trump will meet the Ukrainian leader, along with several European heads of state and the NATO Secretary-General, on Monday.

It is hard to overplay the sense of despondency and sheer dread felt by Downing Street insiders as they watched Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky trade barbs in the Oval Office.

Volodymyr Zelensky has vowed to reject Vladimir Putin's "peace deal" - which involves handing large sections of Ukraine to Russia. The Ukrainian President has claimed his Russian counterpart wants the rest of occupied Donetsk - and effectively the entire Donbas region - as part of a ceasefire deal.
