Donald Trump says talks to end Ukraine's war will start immediately, although the US is indicating it won't regain all its territory.
A prisoner exchange is also likely.
The US President's spoken with Russia's Vladimir Putin, calling the phone call "lengthy and productive".
Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth says it's "unrealistic" to think Ukraine will get all its territory back.
US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking that while Ukraine's President is not directly saying they’re being sidelined by Trump in the negotiations, he’s saying it’s “not pleasant” the US President called Putin first.
Zelenskyy is also saying that Ukraine will not accept any peace effort without the Ukrainians’ direct involvement.
