Zelensky Faces Stark Choices as Trump Pushes Peace Framework

Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, U.S. Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll sit before closed-door talks with Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak (not pictured). As pressure mounts in the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia, U.S. President Donald Trump has intensified efforts to secure a peace deal , urging Kyiv to accept a revised framework before the American Thanksgiving holiday. The proposal, reportedly a 28-point plan , has drawn sharp criticism for heavily favoring Moscow’s interests, including demands that Ukraine cede territory, limit its military, and abandon aspirations to join NATO. In recent days, Trump warned that Ukraine risks losing access to U.S. intelligence and weapons if it fails to agree to the plan by November 27. His administration has framed the deadline as a necessary step to end the nearly four-year war, but many in Kyiv view it as coercive. Ukrainian President V...

Your daily horoscope: November 20, 2024

 

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Widen your horizons over the coming year and make a point of visiting somewhere new once a month at least. You don’t have to travel far but you do have to be on the move, because that’s when you will meet someone who transforms your existence.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

One of the most exciting times of the year begins for you tomorrow when the sun enters your fellow fire sign of Sagittarius. You have always been the adventurous sort but now even loved ones will think you’ve gone crazy. You have, but in a good way.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

A financial matter that has been causing you some concern will take a turn for the better over the next few days and you should be able to get out from any debts you may be under. Next time, don’t spend money you don’t actually possess.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

After the ups and down of recent weeks what happens next will come as a welcome change. Make use of the short period of stability that is about to begin to repair relationships with people you have fallen out with for no good reason.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Your chores and responsibilities will increase dramatically over the next few days but it is nothing you cannot handle, so stay calm and work through what has to be done a step at a time. Don’t aim for perfection though, just get it all done.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

It may be true that some of your plans veered off course in recent weeks but you are still heading in roughly the right direction and after the sun changes signs tomorrow you will be back on track and pursuing your dreams with laser-like intensity.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Put petty disputes behind you and let everyone you work and do business with know that what happened before has no bearing on what choices you are going to make over the next few weeks. Life is too short to waste time on trivial disagreements.

    LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

    The message of the stars today is that although you might be able to get away with just about anything that doesn’t mean you should deliberately cut corners and break rules. In the long-term there are always consequences, good and bad, for the choices we make.

    SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

    You will need to call on all your powers of self-restraint over the next 24 hours because if you react to what other people say and do the outcome is unlikely to be in your favor. Act as if their words and actions don’t worry you in the slightest.

    SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

    The sun joins Mercury in your sign tomorrow, signalling the start of a phase when you are once again master of your own destiny. Don’t listen to those who urge caution – you have been far too restrained of late and need to start taking risks again.

    CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

    Whatever it is you have been keeping from friends and loved ones of late is unlikely to be of earth-shattering importance, so stop trying to hide it and admit what you’ve been up to. You may be surprised to find that most people don’t care a bit.

    AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

    Your powers of persuasion are at a peak and if you use them wisely between now and the weekend you can get things done that may not have been possible before. For best results, make sure all instructions you give are simple and to the point.

    PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

    You are already working to a tight and demanding schedule, so you cannot allow employers and senior colleagues to dump even more tasks on your plate. Let them know that you won’t be able to help until you have cleared your current backlog of jobs.
