In a major step toward ending the war in Ukraine, U.S. diplomats successfully negotiated a 30-day ceasefire deal, with one key condition—Russia must agree.
After high-stakes meetings between U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, and Ukrainian representatives in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Ukraine announced its willingness to accept an immediate ceasefire—if Russia does the same.
This is the first serious breakthrough in months, and it’s all thanks to President Donald Trump’s no-nonsense diplomatic approach.
A Deal on the Table—Now It’s Putin’s Move
In a joint statement between Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the U.S. Department of State, Ukraine made it clear:
“We are ready to accept the U.S. proposal for an immediate, interim 30-day ceasefire, which can be extended by mutual agreement, as long as Russia accepts and implements it at the same time.”
The United States will now push Russia to agree, making it clear that the ceasefire is a pathway to a bigger peace deal—one that could finally bring an end to the bloodshed.
If Moscow agrees, the U.S. has pledged to “immediately lift the pause” on intelligence-sharing and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
🇺🇸 Trump has made one thing clear: The Biden-era blank checks to Ukraine are over. Peace is the new priority.
The Humanitarian Side—Prisoner Exchanges & Stolen Children
This ceasefire isn’t just about halting military operations. Humanitarian efforts were also at the heart of these discussions.
🇺🇦 Ukraine and the U.S. have agreed to prioritize:
🔹 Prisoner exchanges – allowing captured soldiers from both sides to return home.
🔹 The release of civilian detainees – Ukrainians who have been held by Russian forces.
🔹 The return of Ukrainian children – many of whom have been forcibly relocated to Russia.
This humanitarian focus is something the Biden administration never prioritized, proving yet again that Trump and his team are the real deal-makers when it comes to bringing people home.
Trump & Zelensky Strike a Critical Minerals Deal
While the focus of these talks was peace, there was another major development—a new agreement between the U.S. and Ukraine to develop Ukraine’s critical mineral resources.
🇺🇸 Why does this matter? Because Ukraine is rich in rare-earth minerals, including those used in semiconductors, military technology, and green energy—industries where China currently dominates.
By securing this agreement, Trump is ensuring that America, not China, benefits from Ukraine’s resources—a massive win for U.S. national security and the economy.
“We’ve gone from ‘if the war is going to end’ to now ‘how the war is going to end,’” said National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.
This deal not only strengthens Ukraine’s economy but also secures American supply chains—something Biden completely failed to do.
Will Putin Accept the Ceasefire?
While Ukraine and the U.S. have shown their willingness to end the fighting, the biggest question remains: Will Putin agree?
🔹 Secretary of State Marco Rubio has already met with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, but Lavrov made one thing clear—Russia is not willing to surrender any land.
🔹 Russia is also demanding that the West be held accountable for supporting Ukraine—with Lavrov going as far as to claim that Ukraine has committed war crimes “worse than Hitler’s murderers.”
🔹 Meanwhile, a potential Trump-Putin meeting is reportedly in the works, though no official date has been set.
🇷🇺 So what does this mean?
It means that while Trump’s team has made real progress, there’s still a long road ahead—and Russia holds the key to whether this ceasefire happens or not.
A Stark Contrast: Trump’s Leadership vs. Biden’s Weakness
Let’s be clear—this kind of progress never happened under Biden.
❌ Biden sent endless billions in taxpayer money to Ukraine but never pushed for a ceasefire.
❌ Biden’s administration failed to secure any humanitarian progress, including prisoner swaps.
❌ Biden ignored U.S. economic interests in Ukraine’s resource-rich land.
Now, under Trump’s leadership, diplomacy is actually producing results—and Ukraine is closer than ever to ending the war.
With Russia now forced to respond, the next few days will be critical.
What Do You Think?
Will Russia accept the ceasefire?
Did Trump just take a major step toward ending the war?
