The US administration is actively working with Russia and Ukraine on possible scenarios for resolving the conflict, including territorial issues and the prospect of deploying European military forces in the region. This was stated by President Donald Trump's National Security Advisor Mike Waltz in an interview with Fox News, confirming that Washington is in dialogue with both sides to find a compromise. 

Waltz said the talks cover a wide range of topics, with key areas including defining the status of disputed territories and discussing the possibility of sending in European troops to ensure stability if a ceasefire is reached. He stressed that the Trump administration is committed to de-escalation, but any agreement must take into account the interests of all parties and have clear guarantees of implementation. The adviser's statement comes amid recent efforts by the White House to step up diplomatic contacts aimed at ending the fighting in Ukraine. 

The negotiating process has gained momentum since Trump returned to power, making conflict resolution a top foreign policy priority. Moscow handed Washington a list of demands for ending the conflict earlier in March, including recognition of current territorial realities and guarantees that Ukraine will not join NATO, Reuters reported. In response, the United States offered a 30-day ceasefire as a first step toward a broader agreement, but Russia has yet to give a final answer, pending details of the terms. 

At the same time, the idea of ​​deploying European troops has provoked a mixed reaction. According to Bloomberg, during a meeting in Saudi Arabia in early March, representatives of the United States, Ukraine and European countries discussed the possibility of creating a peacekeeping contingent under the auspices of NATO to monitor compliance with the ceasefire. However, Kyiv fears that such a move could freeze the conflict without restoring full control over the lost territories. Moscow insists that any foreign forces on Ukrainian territory will be perceived as a threat to Russia's security.
