Odds of a 2025 meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin have sharply declined on Polymarket’s betting exchange. Once above 70% following Putin’s meeting with U.S. President Donald J. Trump, the probability has now fallen to just 25%. Analysts expect the figure to drop further in the wake of last night’s ballistic missile strike on Kyiv, as several European leaders have publicly ruled out the possibility of such a meeting.
