US want Ukraine, Russia to end war by June: ZelenskyKYIV, Ukraine, Feb 7, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - The United States wants Ukraine and Russia to end their war by June, and has offered to host talks between the two sides next week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said. Russia, which occupies around 20 percent of Ukraine, is pushing for full control of its neighbour's eastern Donetsk region as part of a deal. But Ukraine says it will not sign an agreement that fails to deter Russia from invading again. "The United States has proposed for the first time that the two negotiating teams -- Ukraine and Russia -- meet in the United States, probably in Miami, in a week's time," Zelensky told reporters in comments made public early Saturday. Zelensky has repeatedly expressed frustration that his country is being asked to make disproportionate compromises compared to Russia.
