Peace Talks in Florida

A meeting happened in Florida. It was about the war in Ukraine. The war has lasted many days. A US plan for peace was talked about.

But, people from Europe and Ukraine have worries. They think the plan might help Russia. It could also make Ukraine choose hard things.

The meeting was for three days. It finished on Sunday. American and Russian people talked. Ukraine and Europe people also talked. Some friends of former President Trump were there. They wanted to stop the fighting. They wanted peace for a long time.

A Russian helper, Yury Ushakov, did not like changes. He said Europe and Ukraine ideas were not good. He said peace would not get better.

US people said the talks were good. A special helper, Steve Witkoff, said Ukraine's team was there. He said the US wants to help talks. But, some Europe leaders are afraid. They think the US is too nice to Russia.

They talked about Ukraine's safety. They talked about help from countries. The US made promises. They also talked about fixing Ukraine. Peace needs many things. They also talked about what to do next.

Friends of Mr. Trump were part of it. This made it harder. Some want the war to end fast. This is not what Europe wants. We do not know if Europe and Ukraine will change the US plan. The final peace is not clear.
