I spoke with Canada’s Prime Minister

, and it was a good conversation, very useful.

I informed him about the work of the negotiating teams today in Switzerland. Ukraine is focused on working as constructively as possible on the steps proposed by the United States. We are working to ensure that the path toward ending the war is real and that the principled elements are put into action.

I thanked the Prime Minister for his support and readiness to assist wherever needed. We are also planning a Coalition of the Willing conversation at the beginning of next week. We value this format of coordination among a wider circle of partners so that everyone is involved and informed about the peace process.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in a filmed public address on Friday said his country has been met with “one of the most difficult moments” in its history as it faces a “choice” between losing its dignity or a key partner, the United States.

Zelensky’s comments come as President Donald Trump has given him a deadline to respond to his Administration’s 28-point proposal to end the Russia-Ukraine war.

Speaking to Fox News Radio, Trump said Zelensky has until the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday—Nov. 27—to provide an answer to his peace plan, citing this as “an appropriate [amount of] time.” He said that an extension may well be granted, if talks are “going well.”

The widely-leaked plan, unveiled on Thursday, is said to propose Kyiv reduce its army and make land concessions—something Ukraine has previously staunchly ruled out as a possibility. In his interview with Fox on Friday morning, Trump argued that Ukraine is already “losing land” and would likely lose that land “in a short period of time” anyway, if the conflict were to continue.
