A: Hey there! Did you catch any news lately?
B: Not much, what's up?

A: Well, check this out! Putin is asking Kyiv to give up control of Donetsk as a condition for ending the war.
B: Whoa, that sounds serious! And he told Trump about it on Thursday?

A: Yeah! He's also offering to return parts of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson if they do. But it seems Putin isn't backing off his old demands, even though Trump is hopeful about a deal.
B: Crazy! I can't believe he's still being so tough on this. The fighting in Donetsk is really fierce, right?

A: Exactly! And Kyiv says they won't give up any of their territories. Trump and Putin are meeting in Hungary soon to talk about Ukraine. It looks like Putin's demand might affect where future ceasefire and peace talks go.
B: Man, I hope they can find a solution before it gets worse! Let's keep an eye on the news, buddy.
