NYT reveals Trump's conversation with EU leaders: Ukraine must give

President Trump told European leaders, after his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday in Alaska, that he supported a plan to end the war in Ukraine by handing over unconquered territories to the Russian occupiers, rather than pushing for a ceasefire, according to two senior European officials who were briefed on the call.

Trump will discuss that plan with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday at the White House, and European leaders are invited to attend, officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations.

After the meeting with Putin, Trump abandoned his request for an immediate ceasefire and believes that a quick peace agreement can be negotiated, as long as Zelensky agrees to hand over to Russia the remaining part of the Donbas region, even those areas that are not occupied by Russian troops.

Zelensky and European leaders have strongly opposed such a concession of unconquered lands, which also contain important defense lines and mineral wealth. Ukrainian officials have said that a final agreement cannot include Kiev agreeing to permanently surrender any sovereign Ukrainian territory, as this would violate Ukraine's Constitution.

In return, Putin offered a ceasefire in the rest of Ukraine along current front lines and a written promise that he will no longer attack Ukraine or any European country, senior officials said. They pointed out to Trump that Putin has often broken his written commitments.

It will remain up to Ukraine to make decisions about its territory, officials stressed, adding that international borders should not be changed by force.

Trump did not mention during the call the imposition of any additional sanctions or economic pressure on Russia, officials said. But European leaders stressed that they would continue sanctions and economic pressure on Russia until the killings stopped, an official said.

Trump said he was optimistic about holding a trilateral meeting with Putin and Zelensky, officials said. But so far, Putin has refused to meet with Zelensky, considering him an illegitimate president of an artificial state.
