U.S. President Donald J.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the latest 28-point peace proposal aimed at ending the conflict in Ukraine was developed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, and President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner in direct consultation with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s confidant Kirill Dmitriev, with almost no input from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and other officials in Europe and Ukraine.

U.S. officials familiar with the proposal said it calls for Ukraine to hand over all of the Donbas in Eastern Ukraine to Russia, including land now controlled by the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Ukraine would also have to agree at least for several years to abandon joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and would not be permitted to have an international peacekeeping force deployed inside the country to deter further aggression from Russia. In exchange, Ukraine would receive some kind of security guarantees from the United States and Russia would “promise” to not further attack Ukraine or other countries in Europe.
