Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Promises Security Guarantees for Ukraine Amid Push for Peace Talks
Caption: Trump Promises Security Guarantees for Ukraine Amid Push for Peace Talks. U.S. President Donald Trump has pledged that Washington will help guarantee Ukraine's security in any deal to end Russia's war. The promise came during a White House summit with President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and European allies, just days after Trump met with Vladimir Putin in Alaska. Trump said Europe would remain the "first line of defense," but stressed that the U.S. would step in with significant support. Zelenskiy hailed the move as a "major step forward" and revealed Ukraine plans to buy around $90 billion in American weapons. The tone was far warmer than the tense Oval Office clash earlier this year, with Trump even expressing affection for Ukraine's people. Still, major obstacles remain. Russia has already dismissed NATO involvement, and European leaders are pushing hard for a ceasefire before any wider negotiations. Trump, however, has signaled he prefers a broader peace deal—even if fighting continues in the meantime. He's now working to set up a trilateral summit with Putin and Zelenskiy, which could take place in Hungary within two weeks.
