U.S. Officials Defend Trump’s Evolving Peace Plan for Ukraine
U.S. officials have responded to a wave of criticism surrounding Donald Trump’s peace plan for Russia and Ukraine by stating that the proposal is still in the development phase. The plan has faced significant backlash, prompting the administration to clarify that it is not yet finalized and remains a work in progress.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian Chief of Staff Andriyo Yermak met with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Geneva on Sunday. The meeting, held in the Swiss city, came amid ongoing discussions about potential diplomatic solutions to the conflict involving Russia and Ukraine. The U.S. administration is reportedly considering multiple approaches to the crisis, with the Trump plan being one of several options under review.
Zelensky’s team has expressed cautious optimism about the possibility of a renewed diplomatic effort, though they have also emphasized the importance of continued military and humanitarian support for Ukraine. The upcoming meetings with U.S. officials are seen as part of a broader strategy to seek a peaceful resolution to the war while ensuring Ukraine’s security and sovereignty remain intact.
