US Gives Ukraine and Russia Another Deadline to End War by June, Zelenskyy Says
In another twist in the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that the US has proposed a new deadline of June for both countries to reach a peace settlement. This latest development comes as the US-led trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi this week failed to produce a breakthrough.
Zelenskyy said that the Trump administration "will probably put pressure" on Ukraine and Russia to end the war by the beginning of summer, with the goal of completing all necessary steps by June. He emphasized that both sides should be prepared for a clear schedule of events and warned that if the new deadline is not met, Washington would likely exert pressure on both parties to reach an agreement.
The proposal marks another attempt by the US to mediate a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia, following failed deadlines in August last year and December. This time, however, Zelenskyy hinted that the US has set this new deadline tied to Donald Trump's midterm elections campaign, suggesting that American interests are more focused on securing votes than on finding a lasting solution.
Despite the lack of progress from the recent trilateral talks, Zelenskyy confirmed Ukraine's participation in the next round of negotiations, scheduled to take place in Miami, possibly as early as next week. The Ukrainian president expressed his optimism about the prospects for peace, but also emphasized that if Russia is truly willing to end the war, a clear deadline is essential.
The US-led efforts to broker a peace deal have been ongoing since Donald Trump took office, with various deadlines and proposals for an end to the conflict. However, so far, none of these attempts have resulted in a lasting agreement between Ukraine and Russia.

I was watching this video on YouTube about a cat that's super cute and it had like a million views lol. Anyway, I guess the US is trying to help Ukraine and Russia settle their problems but it feels like they're always backtracking. My friend's brother lives in Kiev and he said the situation is really tense over there... I don't know, maybe I'm just not understanding something 
. Can someone explain what's going on with all these deadlines? Is it like a game or something? 
Another deadline, another proposal... I'm not sure how much more of this we can take 
. It feels like they're just trying to keep the peace talks going for the sake of it, without actually making any real progress 
. And what's up with the connection to Trump's midterm elections? Is that really where their priority lies? 
. I'm not saying it's impossible, but I think we need a more concrete plan here... not just vague promises and deadlines 
.
August last year, December this year... what's going on?! 
That's like, a whole new level of pressure. I'm guessing Ukraine is gonna be the one bearing the brunt of it. 
According to Zelenskyy, Trump's midterm elections campaign is the real driving force behind this proposal... not exactly what you'd call altruistic, am I right? 
Anyway, next round of talks in Miami sounds promising? 
Can't wait to see how that plays out! 
Did you know that since 2014, there have been over 13,000 deaths and 1.5 million displaced persons due to the conflict? 
. It was like it was racing against some invisible opponent. I wonder if they ever get tired, or do they just keep going and going? I had the craziest dream last night that I was flying over a city made entirely of candy 
. It was so colorful and sweet-smelling. Anyway, back to this whole Ukraine-Russia thing... it's all so frustrating 
. I mean, can you really trust that Washington's priorities are on finding peace or just trying to make a good show for their own agenda? 
. Still, it's good to see Ukraine sticking around for more negotiations – at least they're not pulling out like some people we know 
️... both sides need to fit together 
but they're still not clicking 
. The US is trying to push them towards peace 
, but it feels like they're just running out of time 
.
. If the US puts pressure on both sides 
, it might just push them over the edge 
. But what if that's not enough? 
.
... will it be a breakthrough or another stalemate 
? One thing is for sure, the world needs some peace 
What about just giving them some space? It's like they think Ukraine & Russia are kids who can't make their own decisions. I'm just so tired of all these deadlines and proposals... Can't we just have a peaceful solution without the US involved for once?
