Hi from CNN, I'm Josh and Shana with the five things you need to know for Monday, November 24th.

The US's peace plan for Ukraine is gathering momentum.

Yesterday, delegations from the two countries met in Geneva, and US Secretary of State

Marco Rubio expressed optimism about the deal.

Despite earlier in the day President Donald Trump

lashing out on social media at the lack of gratitude shown by Ukraine's leaders.

Here's what Rubio said to reporters after the talks.

Oh, it was very positive.

Rubio also stressed the 28-point peace plan is still evolving, after it was heavily criticized

for its concessions to Russia.

And CNN's Betsy Klein has more on how the proposal is shaping up.

Some of the provisions in an earlier draft obtained by CNN include Kiev's seeding territory

to Russia, giving up any ambitions to join NATO, as well as limiting the size of its army.

But Rubio now says that many of those outstanding issues have been resolved in what he

described as a very substantial way.

Zelensky saying in a new video that he believes that Trump's team is now listening to Ukraine,

but it's worth noting that any deal still needs sign-off from President Trump,

from President Zelensky as well as from Russia, and that could be a major obstacle going

forward.

More news after this, including Trump's new health care proposal.
