Zelenskyy outlines peace terms amid reports Putin gave Trump territory demand | ABC News - AU |
After a post-meeting phone call with Mr Trump, Mr Zelenskyy wrote on X that "a real peace must be achieved, one that will be lasting, not just another pause between Russian invasions".
"Killings must stop as soon as possible, the fire must cease both on the battlefield and in the sky, as well as against our port infrastructure,"' he said.
As Trump wobbles, Zelenskyy pivots repeatedly with European leaders who hold no cards in a solution, just another enduring conflict Europe has a history of.

Diplomacy: Trump cancels Budapest meeting after Putin rejects Ukraine [European] demands | Harici Tr. |
US President Donald Trump canceled the planned Budapest summit after Russian President Vladimir Putin rejected a ceasefire in Ukraine and insisted on demands such as Kyiv's withdrawal from Donetsk. Following a meeting with his Russian counterpart, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio advised Trump to postpone the summit.
US President Donald Trump announced that he has canceled his planned meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. A senior White House official confirmed the decision to Reuters.
Sources reported that with this development, the preparatory meeting between Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio for the Budapest summit, which was scheduled to be held within two weeks, has been canceled.
Summit preparations suspended
NBC News reported that preparations for the Budapest summit, which was expected to be held within two weeks, have been suspended following Trump's phone call with Putin.
Reuters UK reported that the planned second face-to-face meeting between the two leaders did not take place because the Russian president refused to compromise and continued his radical demands.
A European diplomat with knowledge of the matter told Reuters, "The Russians were asking too much. The Americans realized in Budapest that any agreement for Trump was impossible."
Another source told the agency that the Kremlin's stance remained unchanged from the previous Anchorage meeting, and that Russia still refused to halt military activity along the front lines.
Kremlin's stance remained unchanged from December 2021 in discussions with Biden's White House. Will it be Europe's war and conflict with Russia now?

VP’s Son Hunter Biden Joins Ukraine Gas Corporation | by Oui @BooMan – 13 May 2014 |
Of course, Russia shouldn’t mess with the Russian speaking population in Eastern Ukraine along its borders. VP Joe Biden was in Kiev, followed by CIA chief John Brennan and there was immediate response of the Ukrainian Army moving into Mariupol and Slavyansk, guns blazing.
Western media didn’t cover the 42 deaths in Odessa and the total death toll after the Maidan Revolution has surpassed the sad number of pre-rebellion. In VP’s office, did Biden find a moving box with Halliburton energy dossiers belonging to Cheney?
Yesterday, the Ukrainian people in a few oblasts held a referendum, that’s what people do expressing their opinion in a democracy. The Russian-speaking population don’t want to be ruled by an illegitimate leadership in Kiev, seated in government through molotov-cocktail throwing thugs and neo-Nazis of the Pravy Sektor. Today six Ukrainian soldiers were killed in an ambush.
