Top officials from the United States are meeting with Ukrainian negotiators in Florida, aiming to broker an end to Russia's war in Ukraine. The talks come amid significant upheaval in Ukraine, following the resignation of President Volodymyr Zelensky's chief of staff after a corruption scandal. The Ukrainian delegation now includes key military and security leaders, reflecting the seriousness of the negotiations.

Diplomats are revisiting a proposed peace framework that has faced criticism for favoring Russian demands, including territorial concessions and restrictions on Ukraine's military. The framework is being revised, but details remain unclear. President Donald Trump plans to send envoys to Moscow for further discussions with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

Despite ongoing diplomatic efforts, Russian attacks on Ukraine continue, causing civilian casualties and widespread damage. Ukraine also claimed responsibility for damaging a major oil terminal in Russia, prompting Kazakhstan to warn against further attacks on its energy infrastructure. Zelensky has emphasized the need for reliable solutions and stronger defense support to end the war.
