Trump's Ukraine peace plan includes US investments in Russia
President Trump has a plan to help end the war in Ukraine.
He wants the U.S. to invest a lot of money in Russia, especially in things like rare minerals and oil.
The plan also includes using some of Russia's frozen money to build a big data center in Ukraine.
This data center would use a nuclear power plant that Russia now controls.
The plan also wants to restart Russia's energy supplies to Europe and other parts of the world.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Zelensky is working on a 20-point peace plan.
This plan has been revised to include new ideas about territories and control over the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant.
The main focus right now is on security guarantees and how to rebuild Ukraine after the war.
The US and Ukraine have different ideas about what should happen with the territories that Russia has taken.
Ukraine wants the people to decide through a vote, while the US is pushing for Ukraine to pull back its troops from certain areas.
The war in Ukraine started in 2022 after years of fighting between Russian-backed groups and Ukrainian soldiers.
Trump's peace plan includes U.S. investments in Russian rare earths and energy.
Proposes tapping $200 billion of frozen Russian assets for Ukrainian projects.
Includes a plan for a major data center powered by the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant.
Aims to restore Russian energy flows to Western Europe and the world.
