Former President Donald Trump has dramatically shortened his timeline for Russian President Vladimir Putin to reach a peace settlement in Ukraine, demanding action within the next 10 to 12 days. Trump emphasized the urgency of the situation during recent interviews and statements, underscoring his belief that swift diplomacy could prevent further escalation in the ongoing conflict. He suggested that without rapid progress, the humanitarian and geopolitical stakes would intensify significantly.

Among the key elements Trump highlighted as necessary for a viable agreement are:

  • Immediate ceasefire measures
  • Clear territorial agreements respecting sovereignty
  • International monitoring and enforcement mechanisms
