There's conflicting information about the level of progress being made during current peace talks, but on whole reporting leans toward low prospects for success.  

Zelenskyy said yesterday that "no consensus had been reached on key territorial questions," but that progress had been made on other topics. Anonymous US officials said "literally 90%" of the issues between the two warring countries had been solved. (ABC News)

Meanwhile, Putin yesterday said that while the Trump administration had demonstrated readiness for a peaceful resolution, “it is unlikely that this will be possible with the current political elites” in Europe. He also referred to the European leaders as swine, suggesting his continued displeasure with the status of talks. (NBC News)

Taken together, this murky picture suggests that a peace deal is further off than the next two weeks.

There is a lack of meaningful progress toward new diplomatic agreements.

Lowering due to passage of time; previous rationale applies.
