US President Donald Trump posted on ‘food social’ about “Big progress on Russia. Stay tuned” ahead of his scheduled meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office. This development follows five hours of talks in Alaska that did not yield a major breakthrough. President Putin has indicated a preference for a peace solution with a security guarantee over a ceasefire. The upcoming meeting raises questions about a potential formula for a solution, especially concerning land concessions. The UK Prime Minister is also expected to join the meeting. The discussions occur amidst past interactions where President Zelenskyy was reportedly embarrassed in February 2025 at the White House. Tangible results from these diplomatic efforts are awaited.
