President Putin from Russia says that Ukrainian soldiers must leave the Donbas area. If they do not leave, Russian soldiers will take the area by force. The president of Ukraine, Mr. Zelensky, does not want to give this land to Russia.

There are talks to try to stop the war. People from the United States, Russia, and Ukraine are talking about peace. But they do not agree on many things. Russia wants more land, and Ukraine wants safety. The talks are very difficult.

Leaders from Europe are worried about these talks. They think the United States may not help Ukraine enough. Ukraine and its friends want strong promises for safety. The war is still going, and Russian soldiers are moving forward in some places.
