President Donald Trump has spent the past several days on a diplomatic sprint, setting the groundwork for a potential trilateral meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to discuss pathways to end the yearslong war.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has voiced his scepticism about selecting the Hungarian capital as a site for a possible trilateral meeting involving the presidents of the US, Russia and Ukraine to discuss the next steps in negotiating an end to the war.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk criticized the idea of holding trilateral talks between the leaders of Ukraine, the United States and the Russian Federation to end the war in Budapest, recalling that it was there that a memorandum on guarantees of Ukraine's territorial integrity and security from the United States and the Russian Federation was signed in 1994.

"Not everyone may remember this, but in 1994, Ukraine already got assurances of territorial integrity from the U.S., Russia, and the U.K. In Budapest," Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said.

Hungary has offered to host peace talks between Russia and Ukraine twice, and the offer still stands, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in a podcast broadcast on Facebook on Thursday.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that he does not support the idea of holding future peace talks on Ukraine in Hungary, Sky News reports. According to the White House, US President Donald Trump proposed Budapest as the venue for a meeting between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy,

The forint strengthened, and interest in Hungarian bank bonds increased following leaks of Budapest being potential venue for peace talks ending war in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian leader returned with a U.S. commitment to participate in security guarantees for Kyiv in a postwar settlement.
