  "account": "US President Donald Trump declared on Wednesday that the United States might be close to reaching a peace deal concerning the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Trump, speaking to reporters before departing for South Carolina, emphasized the delicate nature of these peace negotiations and cautioned against imposing new sanctions on Russia, as such actions could undermine diplomatic progress. He noted that Russia's involvement in Iran has been minimal compared to US military actions, and that Russia and China have not been significant players in the region. Trump also expressed openness to a high-level meeting on denuclearisation involving Russia and China, though he did not provide further details. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine is prepared to freeze the conflict along the current front lines and move towards diplomatic negotiations as part of efforts to end the war with Russia. He emphasized the importance of securing peace guarantees from the United States and European nations.",
