[Developing] Trump says progress made after Ukraine peace plan talks but "thorny issues" remain

Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump have both described their meeting in Florida as “great” and “terrific”

Zelensky said the 20-point peace plan was 90% agreed, while Trump said a security guarantee for Ukraine was “close to 95%” done.

But the US president also said “one or two very thorny issues” remained – with land still being the most difficult one

An agreement on a free-trade zone in Donbas was also “unresolved”, Trump said.

On Russia, Trump said Vladimir Putin had not agreed to a ceasefire to allow any referendums to take place – something Ukraine said was essential for resolving territorial issues

Notably, both Trump and Zelensky did not offer any timelines, instead vowing to have their teams meet again in the coming weeks, according to a BBC report.
