Peace Plan of Ukraine and the USA: What Was Started and What Was Excluded from 28 Points

The USA and Ukraine have made progress in negotiations regarding the peace plan in Geneva, although key differences remain. The plan, which initially consisted of 28 points, has been reduced to 19. The negotiations took place on November 23, and among the key participants were U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who positively assessed the progress, and U.S. President Donald Trump, who approved the initial 28-point plan on November 19.

Trump set a deadline of November 27 for Ukraine to accept the plan, highlighting the urgency of resolving this issue. The plan was developed by Steve Witkoff in consultation with Kirill Dmitriev. However, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz expressed concerns about possible territorial concessions from Ukraine, stating that 'Ukraine should not be forced into unilateral territorial concessions.'

Discussions and Reactions to the Negotiations

Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Igor Brusilo confirmed that Ukraine's NATO membership remains on the agenda, which may become a subject of further discussions. Regarding the results of the negotiations, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Moscow had not received official information about the results of the meeting.

• Marco Rubio:

  “I am very optimistic that we will achieve this in a very reasonable period of time.”

• Volodymyr Zelensky:

  “The negotiations have reached a critical point.”

Andriy Yermak, the president's advisor, added that 'any agreement will require the approval of Zelensky, Trump, and Putin.' Donald Trump, in turn, asked: 'Is it really possible that significant progress is being made in peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine???'

Thus, while negotiations between the USA and Ukraine demonstrate positive progress, there are significant differences that require further discussion and alignment.

The negotiations between Ukraine and the USA regarding the peace plan are crucial in the context of the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine and international relations. The reduction in the number of points in the plan may indicate the possibility of compromise, but it also exposes complex issues, including territorial concessions that may impact stability in the region. Recent comments from Ukrainian and American leaders emphasize that further meetings may be critical for reaching a final agreement.
