US President Donald Trump, while talking to reporters at the White House, clearly said that the peace draft sent by America to Kiev is not its final offer. He also added that if Ukraine wants, it can continue the fight with full force. Trump claimed that America would end this conflict under any circumstances and Ukraine was expected to respond by November 27. In the same conversation, Trump also said that if he had been president in 2022, the Russia-Ukraine war would never have started.
There was a major stir in American politics when Republican Senator Mike Rounds told that Foreign Minister Marco Rubio informed the senators that the 28-point peace plan prepared by America is actually based on content received from Russia. However, the US State Department did not make any public comment on this claim. Meanwhile, representatives of America, Britain, France, Germany and Ukraine are going to discuss the review and amendment of this draft in Geneva.
The country is facing the most difficult decision – Zelensky
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed concern over the American proposal and said that Kiev is currently in the most difficult period in its history. He said that this draft coming from America appears to be close to Russia’s interests and the pressure on Ukraine to accept it is also increasing. Zelensky says he will have to decide whether the country should save its dignity or risk losing a major ally. He talked about continuing talks with America and has entrusted the entire responsibility of talks to his Chief of Staff Andrey Yermak.
Europe’s objection to the draft
European countries included in the G20 registered their concern over America’s plan. His statement said that this draft can become the basis for mutual talks, but many key points need to be changed in it. European countries reiterated that the borders of any country should not be changed by force and that if Ukraine leaves its current status it will become insecure for the future. The leaked US draft is said to include suggestions such as Ukraine leaving parts of eastern Donetsk, recognizing areas under Russian control and stabilizing the battle line in Kherson and Zaporizhia.
Along with this, a proposal has also come forward to limit the number of Ukrainian army and deployment of European fighter planes in its neighboring Poland. On the other hand, this draft also includes the idea of gradually giving relief to Russia in economic sanctions and possibly opening the way for its return to the G7 in the future.
Britain’s opposition
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer met with both Trump and Zelensky during the G20. Starmer clearly stated that any proposal to limit Ukraine’s military capability is not acceptable and that Kiev needs to maintain adequate capabilities to defend itself even after the ceasefire. He says that security guarantees cannot be given in such a way that Ukraine will not be able to keep itself safe in the future.
The plan can become the basis – Putin
Russian President Vladimir Putin also gave his reaction regarding this draft. He says that the plan sent by America can become the basis for negotiations, but Moscow is also fully prepared to continue the war. Reports by Western intelligence agencies have claimed that in the past months, Russia has gradually strengthened its hold on the south-eastern front.
