Kyiv Receives U.S. Peace Draft Backed by Trump, EU Pushes Back

Kyiv received the U.S. draft, with talks planned with President Trump following EU leaders' public rejection of the reported terms.

Overview

  • Zelensky’s office confirmed it has the 28‑point proposal and said he will discuss key points with President Trump in the coming days.
  • The White House acknowledged the draft and said the president supports it as a potential path to peace, calling it acceptable to both sides.
  • Reports say the plan was developed by U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff with Kremlin‑linked Kirill Dmitriev and would require recognizing Russian control over Crimea and much of Donbass.
  • Leaked elements include strict limits on Ukraine’s military and long‑range weapons, a ban on foreign troop deployments, and no NATO accession, paired with Western security guarantees and air protection from bases outside Ukraine.
  • EU ministers in Brussels rejected such terms as unacceptable for Ukraine’s defense, while Russia claimed new gains near Kupiansk as fighting continues.
