Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that Ukraine risks losing its dignity or U.S. support if a 28-point proposal, drafted by the Trump administration, is not addressed. The proposal, which outlines a framework for U.S. assistance, is seen as critical to Ukraine’s security and international standing.
Zelensky’s comments come amid growing concerns over the pace of U.S. aid and the potential for a shift in Washington’s stance on Ukraine’s war effort. The proposal, which was initially drafted during the Trump administration, has been a focal point of discussions between Ukraine and its allies. Zelensky emphasized that the document contains ‘arguments’ and ‘alternatives’ that could help secure continued U.S. backing.
Analysts suggest that the Trump administration’s withdrawal from the proposal has left a vacuum, and Zelensky’s push for a new approach highlights Ukraine’s determination to maintain its position on the global stage. The situation underscores the complex dynamics of international diplomacy and the challenges faced by Ukraine in securing long-term support.
