less than two weeks after their
0:01
disastrous meeting in the Oval Office
0:03
presidents Trump and zilinski have had a
0:05
major diplomatic breakthrough Ukraine
0:07
has accepted the terms of a US ceasefire
0:09
deal which would involve an immediate
0:11
halt to all hostilities now Trump says
0:14
the ball is in Russia's court and that
0:16
it's over to Vladimir Putin to take the
0:17
next step the deal was brokered in jeda
0:20
in Saudi Arabia and the US and Ukraine
0:22
issued a rare joint statement afterwards
0:24
announcing that the US would immediately
0:26
lift the pores on intelligence sharing
0:28
and resume security assistance to
0:30
Ukraine senior Trump Administration
0:32
figures are piling pressure on Russia to
0:34
agree to the deal Marco Rubio said our
0:37
hope is that the Russians will answer
0:38
yes as quickly as possible so that we
0:40
can get to the second phase of this
0:42
which is real negotiations in a big step
0:44
for fleshing out what a broker piece
0:46
could look like zelinsky has said that
0:47
he's ready to sign a minerals deal this
0:49
would give the US a more direct economic
0:52
stake in Ukraine and could even put
0:54
American companies and citizens on the
0:55
ground there this would make it far
0:57
harder for the peace deal to break down
1:00
there are still points of contention
1:01
between the US and Ukraine sensy has
1:03
insisted that he will not recognize any
1:06
territories occupied by Russia he
1:07
considers this to be a major red line
1:09
but Rubio has said that both countries
1:11
have had conversations about giving away
1:13
territory today leaders from the UK and
1:16
EU are crisscrossing the globe to sh up
1:18
the deal UK defense secretary John
1:20
Healey is set to meet leaders of five
1:22
top European military Powers meanwhile
1:25
NATO's Secretary General Mark R is
1:27
headed to Washington to meet Trump he's
1:29
known as the the Trump Whisperer but
1:31
he's got his work cut out for him trying
1:32
to convince the president to throw his
1:34
weight behind the military Alliance
1:36
meanwhile UK prime minister K stama has
1:38
said Russia must now agree to a
1:40
ceasefire to end the fighting he also
1:42
said we are ready to help bring an end
1:44
to this war in a just and permanent way
1:47
that allows Ukraine to enjoy its freedom
1:49
it's too early to know if this is the
1:51
beginning of the end for three long
1:52
years of war in Ukraine but it's a
1:55
significant moment and it shows that the
1:57
Trump Administration is anything but
1:59
predictable for more on this story as it
