Palm Beach, Florida - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump are meeting right now in Florida at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate to discuss a potential peace plan for the war in Ukraine, according to multiple live reports.

The talks come as Trump prepares to reassume the US presidency and has highlighted his intention to pursue negotiations that might bring an end to the conflict that began with Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022.

Officials from both sides are engaged in real-time discussions on key issues, including security guarantees for Ukraine, the future of Russian-occupied territory, and how an agreed framework might be enforced with the support of international partners.

Zelensky travelled to Florida specifically for these talks, emphasising the importance of direct dialogue with Trump given the United States’ central role as a military and financial supporter of Ukraine. The meeting is being closely watched in Kyiv and across Europe as leaders weigh how US policy may shift under a second Trump administration.

Trump has acknowledged the challenge of the conflict and stated publicly that he believes negotiations could lead to an end to the war, though he has not detailed the specifics of any plan. Earlier on the same day, Trump said he had a “productive conversation” with Russian President Vladimir Putin before meeting Zelensky, signalling an effort to frame the talks within a broader diplomatic context.

Observers note that the meeting in Florida is likely to focus on broad principles rather than final agreements, with both sides seeking to outline common ground and set the stage for follow-up negotiations involving other global powers.

Zelensky reiterated in comments prior to the meeting that any peace plan must protect Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and he has warned against solutions that would merely freeze the conflict without long-term security assurances.

No formal outcome is expected to be announced immediately, but stakeholders hope the discussions mark a meaningful step toward future negotiation phases. The live talks are being reported by international media as they unfold, reinforcing the global significance of the diplomatic encounter.
