President Trump says he’s ready to speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin today about his proposed 30-day ceasefire deal for Ukraine. Ahead of the conversation, Trump said negotiators were looking at “dividing up certain assets.” That’s likely to include pressing Ukraine to accept Moscow’s claims over Russian-occupied territory, and control of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, which Russia has occupied since 2022. Russia is also demanding guarantees that Ukraine will never join NATO. Ukrainian officials have repeatedly said Russia must surrender all of the territory it has seized.
