Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed regret over his country’s decision to relinquish its nuclear weapons in an interview, stating that Ukraine's lack of nuclear deterrence has left it vulnerable. Zelensky criticized the U.S., the U.K., and other security guarantors for failing to uphold their promises under the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, which assured Ukraine’s security in exchange for giving up its nuclear arsenal. He used strong language to express his frustration, stating that the guarantors "didn’t give a f**k" about Ukraine's sovereignty or security. Zelensky further reflected on the collapse of the Soviet Union, when Ukraine inherited a significant nuclear stockpile, only to give it up in exchange for security assurances that, according to him, were never honored. He emphasized that if Ukraine had retained its nuclear capabilities, it would have been in a stronger position to deter Russia's aggression.

As tensions escalate in Ukraine, the UK and France have unveiled a bold plan to deploy up to 30,000 peacekeepers in the war-torn country, contingent on a ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine. The proposed peacekeeping force would primarily consist of British and French troops, tasked with safeguarding key infrastructure and monitoring ceasefire compliance using drones and satellite surveillance. However, the plan hinges on securing crucial support from U.S. President Donald Trump, whose backing is seen as essential for the mission's success. While the U.S. has ruled out sending troops, European officials have emphasized that without Trump's approval, the peacekeeper deployment faces significant challenges. Russian officials, led by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, have vehemently opposed any foreign military presence in Ukraine, warning that it would be viewed as a legitimate target.

In a recent statement, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt expressed confidence that a peace deal to end the ongoing conflict in Ukraine is "pretty close."
