Trump: Ukraine-Russia Peace "Closer Than Ever" as Europe Proposes Multinational Force

• US President Trump stated a peace deal for Russia's war in Ukraine is "closer than ever."
• European leaders proposed a "multinational force" to enforce a potential peace accord.
• Talks in Berlin involved Ukrainian President Zelensky, Trump's envoys, and European leaders to advance peace efforts.
• The US offered "robust security guarantees" for Ukraine, akin to NATO's Article Five, including a strong military and ceasefire monitoring.
• Zelensky noted progress on security guarantees but highlighted ongoing differences regarding territorial concessions to Russia.
