Zelenskyy Suggests Land Swap with Putin, Proposes Returning Kursk

Donald Trump has repeatedly stated his intention to swiftly end Russia’s war against Ukraine and claims to have already made progress in discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to Trump, Putin “wants people to stop dying in the war.” However, the former U.S. president’s team acknowledges that both sides will need to make concessions to bring the conflict to an end.

Meanwhile, Russia has intensified its offensive, recently launching large-scale drone strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and making advances in the eastern Donetsk region. Moscow has shown little indication that it is open to negotiations.

Maria Zakharova, a spokesperson for Russia’s Foreign Ministry, dismissed Ukraine’s claims of progress in the conflict. “In the Kursk region, the neo-Nazis operating there … [control] an area of ​​approximately two meters and a depth of one and a half meters,” she wrote in a Telegram post on Tuesday. “Zelensky makes similar statements in order to hide the true scale of the disaster for the Armed Forces in this direction.”

Over the past year, Russian troops have seized an additional 3,600 square kilometers of Ukrainian territory, bringing the total area under Moscow’s control to about 20 percent of Ukraine. In contrast, Ukrainian forces hold approximately 500 square kilometers in Russia’s Kursk region, located in the country’s far west.
