'Russia To Keep All Ukranian Territories': NATO & EU Horrified As Trump Sides With Putin In War

In a dramatic move to end two years of bloodshed, U.S. officials shared a proposed ceasefire plan during closed-door talks in Paris. The deal would freeze the Russia-Ukraine war in place, allowing Moscow to keep occupied territories—for now. Ukraine’s NATO aspirations would be paused, and sanctions on Russia could be gradually lifted if peace holds. In return, Russia must end all military operations. The U.S. plan includes peacekeeping forces, ceasefire monitors, and postwar security guarantees for Ukraine. But critics say the cost of peace may be territorial compromise. #Ukraine #Russia #USCeasefirePlan #RussiaUkraineWar #Ceasefire #PeaceDeal #UkraineWar #RussiaNews #ISWMap #Crimea #Donetsk #Luhansk #Geopolitics #Biden #Putin #NATO #SecurityGuarantees #FrozenConflict #TerritorialDispute #USForeignPolicy #UkrainePeace #ParisTalks #RussiaSanctions #CeasefireMonitoring #UkraineConflict #PostWarEurope #UkraineBorders #OccupiedTerritories #RussiaKeepsLand #PeaceAtWhatCost Also Read Preparations Underway For Vladimir Putin’s India Visit: Russian FM Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/preparations-underway-for-vladimir-putin-s-india-visit-russian-fm-lavrov-4106621.html?ref=DMDesc Diplomatic Breakthrough: Russia and Ukraine Commit to Black Sea Maritime Safety :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/diplomatic-breakthrough-russia-and-ukraine-commit-to-black-sea-maritime-safety-4105123.html?ref=DMDesc What Makes Ukraine’s Minerals So Special?

U.S Threatens Exit From Ukraine Peace Talks| Trump Could Walk Away If No Deal, Rubio Warns In Paris

President Trump may abandon peace talks between Russia and Ukraine within days if no progress is made. Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that the U.S. won’t prolong discussions without clear signs of a breakthrough. Following high-level meetings in Paris, the White House is growing frustrated with stalled negotiations. Trump, who has personally invested in the process, is also eyeing a new mineral deal with Kyiv after a failed attempt in February. A complete U.S. withdrawal could collapse global peace efforts as no other nation holds the same influence. #Trump #Ukraine #Russia #PeaceTalks #MarcoRubio #WhiteHouse #Putin #Zelenskyy #UkraineWar #USForeignPolicy #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #Ceasefire #MineralDeal #JDVance #ParisTalks #UkraineCrisis #NATO #GlobalPeace #RussiaUkraine #TrumpPolicy #InternationalRelations #WorldNews #Rubio #Zelensky #Kyiv #USPolitics #Diplomacy #BidenEraShift #PeaceDeal #TrumpDoctrine Also Read US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc China Brushes Off US Tariff Threats, Warns Against 'Numbers Game' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-brushes-off-us-tariff-threats-warns-against-numbers-game-4126079.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Administration Freezes USD 2.2 Billion In Grants To Harvard University :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-freezes-usd-2-2-billion-in-grants-to-harvard-university-4124075.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~
