The White House is mapping out next steps to end the war in Ukraine after Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and several European leaders joined President Trump for high stakes talks Monday.

In a reversal only few hours after meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump said an overall peace agreement, and not a ceasefire, was the best way to end the war. That statement echoed Putin’s view that Russia is not interested in a temporary truce, and instead is seeking a long-term settlement that takes Moscow’s interests into account.
