President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump are scheduled to discuss a peace plan for Ukraine on Tuesday, March 17, 2025. This meeting comes as a crucial step towards resolving the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
According to sources, Putin has expressed willingness to discuss a ceasefire in Ukraine, but with certain conditions. Ukraine would need to abandon its NATO ambitions and accept limited territorial concessions. Putin’s stance on Ukraine’s neutrality remains a significant point of negotiation.
The proposed peace plan may involve Ukraine committing to neutrality in exchange for international security guarantees from UN Security Council permanent members, including Russia.
However, achieving a lasting peace remains uncertain due to the vast differences between Ukrainian and Russian demands.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has repeatedly asserted that Ukraine will not rest until all its territories, including Crimea, are restored. With the meeting between Trump and Putin, the world waits with bated breath to see if a peaceful resolution can be achieved.
