Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy suggested a ceasefire deal where unoccupied Ukrainian territories join NATO, ensuring security against further Russian aggression. He proposed negotiating the return of occupied regions diplomatically. Zelenskyy emphasized the need for NATO to "immediately" cover Ukraine's controlled areas, warning of Russian resurgence otherwise. The statement marks a shift from Kyiv's earlier refusal to cede territory. Zelenskyy also expressed willingness to engage with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, emphasizing the importance of direct communication. Russia, however, insists on retaining occupied territories. Approximately 20% of Ukraine remains under Russian control since its invasion.
