Zelenskyy and Trump to discuss territorial issues under updated peace plan – Bloomberg

Territorial issues may become the main topic of the meeting between Zelensky and Trump

The latest draft of the peace plan no longer includes a provision that would redirect about $100 billion in Russian funds to U.S. programmes for Ukraine’s reconstruction.

According to Censor.NET, this was reported by Bloomberg.

"The proposal envisaged that the United States would receive 50% of the profits, while any unspent frozen assets would be channelled into a U.S.–Russia investment fund," the outlet noted.

Meanwhile, territorial issues, a key element of any potential settlement, are likely to be discussed during the meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. President Donald Trump. Deputy Head of the Office of the President Ihor Brusylо said this in an interview with Bloomberg Television.

According to him, working-level negotiations will continue in the coming days.

"When all the issues are settled, and some will remain unresolved, for example territorial matters, then…," Brusylо said.

As for NATO membership, the presidential office representative stressed that "for Ukraine, this issue has not been taken off the agenda entirely."
