Former U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will meet in Washington next week to discuss a potential air ceasefire plan for the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The meeting follows previous U.S.-led negotiations that have not yet yielded a lasting peace agreement. The talks will focus on a limited pause in aerial hostilities, presented as a step toward de-escalation but not a full resolution of the conflict. Prediction markets currently place the odds of a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine by the end of 2026 at 36%, with odds for an October 31, 2026 ceasefire at 23%.
