(The Guardian) Zelenskyy to negotiate with Trump over US-Russia peace deal requiring painful concessions
Guardian correspondents Luke Harding and Andrew Roth, report that the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has said he will negotiate with Donald Trump on a US-backed peace plan that called on Kyiv to make painful concessions in order to end the Kremlin’s invasion of his country.

Zelenskyy’s office on Thursday confirmed that he had received the draft peace plan, which was prepared by US and Russian officials, and that he would speak with Trump in the coming days about “existing diplomatic opportunities and the main points that are necessary for peace”. “We agreed to work on the points of the plan so that it would bring a worthy end to the war,” Zelenskyy’s office said in a statement.

The cautious response from Ukraine’s presidential administration followed angry denouncements of the plan by some Ukrainian officials who called it “absurd” and unacceptable. Zelenskyy’s public statement came as he held talks on Thursday with a high-ranking US military delegation, led by the army secretary Dan Driscoll.

The problem is Putin who doesn't like to end the war. It should be Putin President Trump to convince. Zelenskyy is ready to embrace peace once Putin accepts the peace deal propped by Trump.

The only way that this war can be stopped is for Russia to accept concessions from it's earlier stand.
