The United States, Ukraine and major European countries have reached consensus on 90 percent of terms for a deal to end Ukraine’s war with Russia, two senior U.S. officials said Monday, but

Russia’s war in Ukraine continues, despite US President Donald Trump’s promise to end the conflict within 24 hours of his return to office in January. Should Trump succeed in brokering a peace deal, the agreement will have to address the future of Ukraine’s occupied lands.

Kyiv has now expressed readiness to drop its bid to join the NATO military alliance if the U.S. and other Western nations give it similar security guarantees.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy resumed talks with U.S. President Donald Trump's envoys in Berlin on Monday, after the U.S. side said a lot of progress had been made on ending Europe's deadliest conflict since World War Two.

Ukraine’s leader said Wednesday he anticipates handing over a revised peace proposal to the US “in the near future.”

The move marks a major shift for Ukraine, which has fought to join NATO as a safeguard against Russian attacks.

KYIV, Ukraine -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was due to hold urgent talks Thursday with leaders and officials from about 30 countries that are supporting Kyiv’s effort to obtain fair terms for an end to the war with Russia.
