Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #1001 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY August 19, 2025: ‘Ukraine’s ELUSIVE PEACE’ by ZUMA Partner agency Le Pictorium photo-journalist Nicolas Cleuet: This week President Trump hosted Ukraine’s Zelenskyy and key European leaders at the White House, but questions still remain around serious peace negotiations to end the Russia-Ukraine war. Washington is pushing for a security corridor protected by international and EU forces, with a certain degree of U.S. military, logistical and technological backing to deter Russia. It recalls the practical if imperfect decades-long status quo on the Korean Peninsula. The negotiations on Ukraine are no longer focused solely on how to stop the war but on how to keep it from breaking out again. That is why the United States is pushing for solid, not symbolic, security guarantees that could deter Moscow from new incursions. The idea of a Korean-style ”buffer zone,” with borders secured by an international military presence, has returned to the heart of talks among President Trump, Ukrainian President Zelensky and European leaders in Washington. However as World Leaders try to broker peace, Russia’s attacks on Ukraine continue. Welcome to ‘Ukraine’s ELUSIVE PEACE’
