Breaking: Zelensky ‘agrees’ to Trump’s amended peace deal – but is all as it seems?

Day 1,370.


Today, as the United States holds secret talks with separate
Ukrainian and Russian delegations in Abu Dhabi, we unpack the
emerging 19-point peace plan – and react live on air to breaking
reports that President Zelensky has agreed to the framework of a
potential deal. We then gauge the mood in Europe’s capitals: is
this a moment of quiet strategy and resolution, or rising panic
as the diplomatic landscape shifts beneath their feet?
