Volodymyr Zelensky is considering significant territorial concessions in Donbas and Crimea to secure continued American support, engaging in discussions with Donald Trump regarding a peace plan.This plan, which includes a "free economic zone" and demilitarization for Donbas, was presented to Trump and aligns with some of Vladimir Putin's positions, prompting Zelensky to seek strong security guarantees from the US and Europe.Despite these diplomatic efforts, Ukrainian forces reported battlefield successes in the Kupiansk area, retaking settlements and pushing back Russian troops, directly countering Russian claims of advances.
