Will a meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy end the war in Ukraine? | Inside Story

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy returned to the White House for a much-anticipated meeting with Donald Trump on Monday.
His last trip was widely considered a failure - with a tense public berating from Trump earlier this year.
But on this trip, he had some considerable backup -- from the French president, German Chancellor and UK Prime Minister to the Head of the EU commission.
They got what they went for - a security guarantee, for Ukraine, from Washington.
The next step is a meeting between Zelenskyy and Putin in the hopes of signing a long term peace agreement.
But what would be the terms?
