Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Willman. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met with President Trump in Florida on Sunday to talk about a peace plan for Ukraine. While both leaders say a lot of progress has been made, NPR's Luke Garrett says one issue is still in contention.
Troops have fought and died over the eastern region of Ukraine, and deciding who controls this area remains a contested and unresolved point. Here's how Trump described it at the joint press conference.
I don't like to say percentages. I just think we're doing very well. We're very We could be very close. There are one or two very thorny issues, very tough issues.
Both Zelensky and Trump went to great lengths at the press conference to say how complicated and difficult these negotiations are. This really highlights that this is a long process to peace.
That's NPR's Luke Garrett. After the meeting, Trump told reporters he'd spoken with Russia's president earlier in the day. As the new year approaches, the future remains uncertain for the centerpiece of President Trump's economic policy. As NPR's Danielle Kurtzleben reports, the Supreme Court is set to rule on the legality of a broad swath of the president's sweeping tariffs.
The court heard arguments in November about whether Trump had the power to impose tariffs under a 1977 law called the International Economic Emergency Powers Act, or IEPA.

Chapter 2: What recent developments occurred in Ukraine during the meeting between Zelensky and Trump?
Trump used that law this year to unilaterally impose tariffs on goods from individual countries from the world over. If found unlawful, it's possible a large chunk of the president's tariffs would disappear. Alternatively, the administration may try to use other laws to impose new replacement tariffs.
It's also possible the government would have to refund billions that American businesses and consumers have already paid in tariffs. Meanwhile, other tariffs the president has imposed on goods like steel and aluminum would remain in place. Danielle Kurtzleben, NPR News.
Somalia has called for an emergency U.N. Security Council meeting on Monday after Israel decided to formally recognize the breakaway region of Somaliland. As NPR's Michelle Kellerman reports, the Israelis plan to exchange ambassadors with Somaliland soon.
More than 20 Arab and African states have joined Somalia in condemning the move, calling Israel's recognition a blatant disregard to international law. There are fears in the region that the Israelis want to move Palestinians in Gaza to Somaliland, though authorities in Somaliland say Gaza was not part of the talks on establishing relations.
Somaliland plans to join the Abraham Accords, the normalization deals with Israel that started during the first Trump administration. It's a topic that could come up in Trump's talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday in Florida. Michelle Kellerman, NPR News, Jerusalem.

Many of the most successful movies over the past few months have been driven by female ticket buyers. Movies including The Housemaid and Wicked for Good have performed better than some films aimed more toward men. NPR's Nita Ulabi has more.
Many of the biggest movies over the past few months brought in men and women in roughly equal numbers. For example, Avatar, Fire, and Ash. Or they were movies for kids, like Zootopia II. But a lot of movies targeting men this season were bombs, like The Smashing Machine, The Running Man, and Him. What did much better? Wicked for Good. Haven't you heard? I'm the Wicked Witch of the West.
