United States President, DONALD TRUMP says Ukraine’s leader, VOLODYMYR ZELENSKY can end Russia’s war “if he wants to” – but there would be “no getting back” of the Crimean peninsula, illegally annexed by Moscow in 2014

The strong remarks come as ZELENSKY lands in the US for today’s White House meeting, which will also be attended by key European leaders

TRUMP’S special envoy says Russia’s VLADIMIR PUTIN has agreed to “robust” security guarantees for Ukraine – including a potential Nato-style defence arrangement

Recall that ZELENSKY reiterated his call for security guarantees, after earlier welcoming the US’s “historic decision” to do so in the event of a peace deal with Russia
