[World Wide Web Reporter Suo Yanqi] According to AFP, a source from the Ukraine delegation revealed to the media that when Ukraine President Zelensky met with U.S. President Trump in Washington on Friday (17th) local time, he showed the latter a map containing potential targets in Russia.

The report quoted the source as saying,"The map marks the pressure points of Russia's defense and military economy, and these pressure points can be attacked to force Russia to end the war."

As of press time, the White House and Russia have not yet responded to this.

Trump held talks with Zelensky in the White House on 17 December to rule out the possibility of a recent tripartite meeting between U.S. and Ukrainian leaders and lowered the departure on the possibility that the U.S. could provide Ukraine with ¡°Taxic¡± cruise missiles. Trump said the U.S. also needed ¡°Taxic¡± and other weapons made by the U.S. and already shipped to Ukraine. He also acknowledged that providing ¡°Taxic¡± to Ukraine would lead to ¡°escalation¡± of the situation and said ¡°we hope that we can end the war without considering the ¡°Taxic¡± missiles¡±. In addition, after the talks, Trump posted on social media calling for a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine ¡°on the ground.¡±

Zelensky, on the other hand, said in the talks that the "impulsion" brought by the ceasefire in Gaza helped to end the conflict in Ukraine, which lasted for more than three and a half years, and that obtaining security is "the most important thing for Ukraine" he suggested to use a large number of U.S.-produced drones in exchange for "war ax" missiles. When Zelensky left the White House, asked if he was more optimistic about obtaining "war ax" missiles for Ukraine, he replied: "I am realistic."

Trump held a more than two-hour conversation with Russian President Putin on Saturday, discussing issues such as ending the conflict in Russia and Ukraine and the subsequent Russian-US trade, and then announced that the two will meet face-to-face in Budapest, Hungary.
