A new 28-point U.S.-Russian peace plan has surfaced, signaling the Trump administration’s attempt to revive stalled ceasefire discussions between Russia and Ukraine. The proposal, which includes terms that have long been rejected by Kyiv, demands significant concessions from Ukraine, such to cede territory and reduce its military forces. Ukrainian officials have described these provisions as unacceptable, emphasizing their refusal to negotiate under such conditions.
The plan, which is part of broader efforts to address the ongoing conflict in Eastern Ukraine, has sparked debate among international observers. While some analysts argue that the demands could pave the way for a more permanent resolution, others warn that they risk deepening the existing divisions between the parties. The Trump administration’s involvement in the talks has also raised questions about its long-term strategy regarding the conflict. Despite the contentious nature of the proposal, the administration has remained committed to its efforts to broker a lasting peace.
