Trump gives Zelenskyy 'days' for peace deal; Ukraine ready for elections.

• Trump's envoys gave Zelenskyy "days" to respond to a US-backed peace proposal requiring Ukraine to accept territorial losses for security guarantees.
• Zelenskyy reaffirmed Ukraine will not surrender territory in the proposed peace plan and is ready for elections within 60-90 days if allies guarantee security.
• Zelenskyy needs time to consult partners, fearing Washington could proceed without Europe; the peace plan has been revised from 28 to 20 points, becoming "more favourable" to Kyiv.
• Russian forces have intensified missile and drone strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and pushed deeper into the Donetsk region.

Why It Matters: US pressure on Ukraine for a peace deal threatens its sovereignty and future.
