Talks between Ukraine and the United States have entered a decisive phase in Geneva, after what diplomats on both sides called their most productive meeting since Donald Trump returned to power.
The delegations are working through the controversial “Trump plan” for peace - a 28-point proposal seen in Europe as heavily favouring Russia.
Kyiv is pushing to amend key demands, including giving up remaining territory in Donbas, recognizing Russian control of occupied regions, and cutting the size of its army.
Ukrainian negotiators say a ceasefire along current front lines is possible, but ceding additional land is not.
Trump, meanwhile, is growing impatient, warning he may abandon Ukraine if talks stall.
European powers, sidelined in Geneva, have floated an alternative proposal - signaling that the race to shape a potential end to the war is rapidly accelerating.
