💨 Abstract

President Donald Trump is poised to meet President Vladimir Putin to attempt to end the Ukraine war. The summit, if it occurs, will be the first U.S.-Russia meeting since 2021. Past peace efforts have stalled due to divergent conditions set by Moscow and Kyiv. Key events include faltered peace talks, a contentious Zelenskyy-Trump meeting, and temporary ceasefires that haven't held.
