Zelenskyy Rejects Territorial Concessions as Europe Seeks to Shape Revised U.S. Ukraine Peace Plan

A shortened draft will return to Washington after European consultations that underscored allied skepticism.

Overview

  • Kyiv says the U.S. proposal has been cut from 28 to 20 points with “openly Ukraine‑hostile” elements removed, and it plans to send the revised text back by Tuesday.
  • After talks in London with the leaders of Germany, France and the UK, Zelenskyy reiterated that Ukrainian law and international law preclude any territorial concessions, and European leaders reaffirmed support.
  • Zelenskyy continued coordination in Brussels with NATO’s secretary general and top EU officials, describing positions as aligned and the process as constructive.
  • President Trump said he was disappointed Zelenskyy had not yet read the proposal, Trump Jr. questioned continued U.S. backing while calling Ukraine corrupt, and Europe pushed back against a new U.S. security strategy critical of the EU.
  • Russia intensified strikes on Ukraine’s power network, with officials warning repairs will take weeks and many regions facing 12–16 hour outages, as new attacks hit energy sites in Sumy; separate NYT reporting alleged weakened oversight in key Ukrainian state firms.
