Trump tells Zelensky: Sign peace deal ‘by Thursday’ or have weapons cut off

Day 1,366.


Today, we reveal new details of the proposed American-Russian
peace plan – one that would not only drastically shrink the
Ukrainian army and force Kyiv to surrender vast areas of critical
territory, but ban it from ever joining NATO, and even see Moscow
invited back into the G7 with its frozen assets returned. After
breaking down the implications and surveying the mood in the
Donbas, we bring the latest reports of resistance from the
occupied territories – places which would legally become Russian
if the deal were signed.
