The Ukrainian president’s options are narrowing as he is confronted with a 28-point proposal drafted by American and Russian envoys.

US President Donald Trump has given Ukraine less than a week to accept his plan – widely seen as favoring Russia – to end the war, as President Volodymyr Zelensky said his country faced “one of the most difficult moments” in its history.

Trump says it's "appropriate" to give Ukraine until Thanksgiving to agree to a peace deal, as Zelensky says he will propose "alternatives".

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the nation regarding the U.S. peace plan to end the war, saying that Ukraine is “at one of the most difficult moments” in its history.

Corruption probes have on occasion targeted Zelensky’s administration, and he has often clashed with the agency behind the latest one, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU). But no investigation has posed a greater threat to the president’s standing among the people of Ukraine,

Ukraine’s president gave his first response to the Trump administration’s proposal, which would hand concessions to Russia.

Ukraine “must determine its future under its sovereignty”, Sir Keir Starmer has said following a call with Volodymyr Zelensky about a US-backed peace plan.The Prime Minister said he along with French and German leaders had emphasised to Mr Zelensky their support for Ukraine and the “fundamental principle” that Kyiv should be in charge of its own destiny.

President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that after talks with a top US Army official, he is ready for "honest" work with the US on a plan to end the war in Ukraine, while European allies pushed back against punishing concessions to Russia.
