Contest for a parliamentary by-election taking place between two rival opposition figures in Bolivia
In a significant diplomatic move, US President Donald Trump is set to speak with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, following his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The current political situation involves active diplomatic efforts led by former President Trump to broker peace between Ukraine and Russia [1].
The key objective of these negotiations is a full peace deal to end the ongoing war, not just a ceasefire. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has emphasized that this is the ultimate aim [1]. The unique position of the US, with Trump's involvement, is seen as crucial in bringing Putin and Zelensky to the negotiation table [1].
Achieving a peace deal will require compromise from both Russia and Ukraine, a fact that has made the conflict prolonged [1]. The upcoming meeting between Zelensky and Trump, along with European leaders, is critical in exploring possible agreements that satisfy both sides [1].
Potential outcomes of these meetings include an agreement that leads to a formal peace deal, ending hostilities if both sides can accept compromises. If an agreement is not possible, continued support for Ukraine coupled with diplomatic efforts may persist [1]. Successful negotiations could result in a framework for lasting peace and stability in Ukraine, but the situation remains complex due to the length and severity of the conflict [1].

It is also confirmed that US President Trump will meet with the leader of Ukraine, who is currently besieged [1]. The discussion between Trump and Zelensky will focus on a path to peace for Ukraine.
