US EditionUkraine-Russia Political Theatrics Underscore Stark Realities on the Ground as War Grinds On
- U.S.-Brokered talks on the Ukraine-Russia conflict began in March 2025, with Zelenskyy accepting Putin's offer for direct talks in Turkey supported by the U.S.
- The negotiations stalled because the Kremlin demanded territorial concessions, army neutralization, and a vow against NATO membership, conditions unacceptable to Ukraine.
- Kyiv agreed to a 30-day ceasefire proposed by the U.S. And a minerals deal sought by Trump, pending a prisoner exchange of up to 1,000 as a trust-building measure.
- U.S. Officials expressed frustration with stalled talks and threatened withdrawal if progress stops, while Zelenskyy stated, "The Russian leader cannot be trusted" to the Trump administration.
- Despite political efforts, Ukraine faces manpower and ammunition shortages along a 1,000-kilometer front, with Russia likely preparing for a summer offensive amid analysts' concerns about Ukraine's limited options.
